That and Evolve. I think those two would be awesome Matt would crush it!
Can you do a whahappun on no man's sky?!
Final Fantasy XIV v1.0 deserves a Wha Happun episode. Sqeenix had to NUKE that game from orbit.
A Battlefront 2 Wha Happun would be interesting, because it has a more or less happy ending. Despite all the release controversy (and richly deserved it was) the game went on to sell more than 33million copies and might well be the best selling game EA has ever published.
A What Happened on Driver 3? It's an infamous disaster that killed the franchise, Atari that published it and a couple of gaming news/reviewer outlets, very interesting stuff.
Yeah Matt, it's definitely time to do a "What Happun?" on Battlefield 2042. It definitively needs one.
I was abour to comment that
It just finished the Battlefield franchise.
Dude legit came to game pass been playing portal mode, just a HD BF3 and 1942 really. Oh how the mighty have fallen. :(
I think he wants to wait because it's technically still "Happening".

@@therealwinston3634 who the fuck cares? It's a video game. A historical accurate ww2 video game wouldn't even be playable.
@POOL'S CLOSED DUE TO CRONA AIDS That's a real dumb hill to die on. The game failed because EA fucked up the marketing and made a mediocre multiplayer. Not because of the gender of some characters in a story mission in a fictional, expressly non documentary WW2 story. Just cause your fragile little ego gets shaken to the core at the thought of playing as a woman in a video game, doesn't mean that's why it failed.

which is 7 million sold copies less then EA expected, at least
@@aeravan less than they expected, more than we hoped
Watching this now, it's hillarious seeing time repeat itself, even if for a different reason
I ended up getting the game, and while I enjoyed it, it just wasn't as good as 1, plus I didn't like the fact that they took an actual event with a team of Norwegian commandos that took down an entire heavy water facility without firing a single shot, and replaced the team with a mother-daughter duo. Like come on man, if you want to use women in a WWII game, either do the actual stories with women in them, or just make up a mission that COULD have happened, don't replace stories with actual soldiers who risked their lives.
*Soviet female snipers be like:*
They are real female snipers fight at Eastern front. Since USSR was not fight against Nazis in some companies history book, DICE decided to just make thing up, what a good way to be woke!
werent there women in some major roles during ww2 anyways? why not include them somewhere?
@@iwakeupandboomimarat major roles is hard to find possibly, in the risitance in smaller towns yeah everyone was a fighter to survive even kids.
A good example of women in WW2 would be the Russian Night Bomber Regiment 588, the Night Witches. THAT would have been cool
ya know i dont think the female character thing would have gone near as bad if they had
1. used the real woman who fought in the war
or
2. set it in a fictional event during world war 2
Or they didn't insult and lie.
@@ExpertContrarian as i said they should have focused on REAL woman soldiers from world war 2

@Eli Nelson yeah we do. Games like it are the very reason this show was made.

Okay, you have to mention the fact that despite saying women DID serve in ww2, DICE did not include any of the militaries or factions that had women in it. There were no Soviets, Partisans, Chinese Forces (until way later), French Resistance, Polish Armja Krajowa or any other faction that historically DID include women. Instead, the women focused missions that they did had instead chose to erase the real life heroic deeds of the Norwegian resistance by replacing them with a fictional civilian mother and daughter duo.
I agree. As a woman I felt this game tried to use us as a selling point when they actually didn't even bothered to make a cohesive story. What they did was to slap a weird, non sensical character that had no explanation of being over a broken, bugged, badly done game and tried to use it as a shield against criticism. In the end, because of lazy, stupid moves like this, there are many who automatically get angry over female game characters(specially as a protagonist).
@@tinazlk8854 Agreed, What sucks is I personally would of loved a story or multiple of woman who actually fought in the war, Would of been awesome to see things from a new perspective but sadly no. Just rewrite over actual men who fought and died in the war and not include the woman who were in the war. Both men and woman were disrespected by DICE in the way they handled it.
@@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley Yea I didn't really write that comment out to well to say the least. I did clarify by saying multiple woman stories and I stand by that. If they wanted woman in BFV they could of had it while being historically accurate along with men in the war to. Could of easily pleased the majority of people but instead rewrote over history and ignored the woman who actually fought in the war.
Everyone here would love the movie ‘U-571’. Now there’s a “historically accurate” WWII flick, lol…
They should have added US Army Japanese descent troops. Also, Native Americans. Fantastic history there, warts and all…
Patrick Soderland basically killed BFV before it even came out
If you dont like it dont buy it. Ah yes that backfired on him lol
Right... Because it's so objectionable to put women in a videogame...
@@josha5933 It's objectionable to appropriate historical conflicts. It's objectionable to pretend you need to 'educate' your audience about factually incorrect things. It's dumb to insult your target audience.
@@dinsdag6juli2010 if the target audience is so sexist they won't buy a game because there's a woman in the trailer then there are some serious problems with that community
@@josha5933 It's WW2, of course women won't be prominent in most battles except for the Soviets and some resistance movements in occupied countries. They could've focus primarily on the Soviets and marketed that way but of course they went out of their way an literally changed histories for no apparent reason, marketed the game as "authentic and immersive WW2 game". Then when people complained about it, they came out of their way to fight their own customers, saying things like "uneducated" or"if you don't like it, don't but it" and what not. Also, "sexist"? Just because people wanted a WW2 game with some historical accuracy?
EA: Women fought in WWII! It's historically accurate.
Also EA: *uses women that never existed*
Night Witches: Are we jokes to you Comrade?
French resistance fighters, Chinese resistance fighters, Soviet snipers and even Soviet frontline soldiers. There were plenty of women who fought in WWII

"Battlefield V: Wha Happun?"
**
Sounds about right.
The reason Firestorm was abandoned was because Criterion was originally the ones doing Firestorm, the same Criterion from Battlefront 2. When Firestorm was released EA most likely put Criterion somewhere else and gave Firestorm over to Dice. They pushed out the small changes Criterion had made to the map and then called it a day, right after they threw away Duo's of course to try and save the queues saying it would "come back" eventually as events, they never did.
So Dice was left with both BF5 base game, 2 other game modes AND Firestorm which was behind a paywall. A fucking disaster
“ If you don’t like it, Don’t buy it”
That quote alone describes nearly everything about the ridiculousness of EA.
Glad you talked about this disaster.
Only exception being Jedi Fallen Order
DestinyZX1 okay yeah. That’s a good exception. But, for every Fallen Order, there’s 10 Games like Anthem.
It’s like firing 100 bullets, but only 1 hits the target. And honestly, I feel like they had no choice but to make Order worth it.
There's only one good EA game I've seen talked about from last year. Just one
9 games in a year, and only one is above the mediocre line.
9 games in a year, and only one is above the mediocre line.
"If you don't like it, don't buy it." So refreshing to see them get what they deserve, for once.
Oh man this so sounds eerily similar to Battlefield 2042, can't wait for that What Happened video lol
The numbering alone on this series can be apart of a "Wha Huppun?" I know why it's numbered that way, but goddamn though!
(They'll introduce Darth Talon or Mara Jade once they actually get introduced into canon, but after Ahsoka, like how was she not in BF2?! lol)
"Loot boxes aren't gambling, they're just something that's ILLEGAL IN OUR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN!"
Might I add BFV never had lootboxes, this guy straight up lied about that part..
Bruh
This comment is proof that these people hate on a game without even actually trying it.
@@EthanJewellDrones it does have lootboxes. this is proof people will hate on a video without actually researching their own statements.
There is premium store with premium credits but no lootboxes.
So Battlefield V isn’t actually world war 2 but a completely different war that was placed in a fictional timeline and in that timeline this is world war 2.
This is how I see it, because this doesn’t feel or look anything like WW2.
I’m just gonna believe that instead :|
Is this the same timeline where they somehow invented "FASTER BULLETS"?
That's basically BF1
If they called it alternate history and made that fact absolutely clear, kimda like black ops did, the goofiness would be tolerable
@@serp3n1 the sad thing is it's barely even that. Besides the existence of gal soldiers and some crazy uniform choices the game takes itself so seriously it hurts. If theyd leaned into the Bad Co in WW2 Tarantino direction it could've been really unique but instead its just this shitty soulless mess of you running around scrapyards in the Phony War era with no real explanation one way or the other, historically or fictionally
Also while women were in the military most of them were in non combat positions and the ones that were were minimal compared to men.
@@tomasfong40 why do you care

imp360 then it shouldn’t bother you since those cosmetics were not available for customization after people got mad
Time for another What Happun episode of EA's screw-ups with Battlefield 2042
"prided itself on historical accuracy" is pretty untrue when it comes to both bf1 and bfv, bf1's uniforms were a total mess, and, although less so, was the fact that they gave EVERYONE AN AUTOMATIC GUN.
Bf1 is my most played battlefield game. If you want ultra realistic you'd be killed by artillery every 100 spawns with your bolt action sprinting into machine guns because Lt said so
@@rrchicken117 to be fair I still love bf1 lol, just stating that it wasn't particularly historically accurate
I was playing operations last night on Xbox (level 98). Near the end of the match I was killed, as I lay dying I watched my killer, by God that's a German... I didn't even know who I was fighting, they just turn into moving blotches at distance.
“If you don’t like it, don’t buy it”
That’s the plan!
You forgot to mentioned that even after Battlefront2 got great, they stopped supporting it because Battlefield V sucks in their eyes
Remember, “their vision is complete”
Well let's be fair here, they can't support the game forever for free. Much as everyone would've loved more updates, DICE can't keep the lights on with praise alone. They really just need to make battlefront 3 and then copy what R6: Siege did at launch with their monetization.
7:40 Which was of course their own damn fault for making a WWI game that played and was framed exactly like a standard WWII game -- run-and-gun combat with automatic weapons, lots of vehicles, prominently featuring Americans, with the Germans as the villains.
The two games _should_ have been quite distinct, but since they weren't prepared to take the risk that American Call of Duty bros wouldn't "get" WWI they ended up making the same game twice.
This kind of blew my mind, spot on
I still liked BF1, though. :
@@KwadDamyj it's a good game. Just not a good WWI game.
@@switchtheflip9422 Yeah, if you want a somewhat better representation of WWI, play Verdun
@@KwadDamyj I thought it was fun enough to play, as well! Technically impressive, too. Just very safe and unoriginal and doing a real disservice to its historical setting.
That's a spicy take on Mirror's Edge Catalyst. Can we expect a Wha Happun episode on that at some point?
It's not even that spicy. Catalyst was a mishandling of Mirror's Edge on nearly every level, from concept to execution. You can't write an effective story about revolution where the status quo is preserved in the ending. Doubly so that that's not what Mirror's Edge was about in the first place.
I keep forgetting Battlefield V was a thing. Why must you remind me?
To prevent history from repeating itself? :P

Y'know, you just described the KoF franchise with that Street Fighter analogy.
Alone in the Dark Matt, please. I suggest the 2008 game, Alone in the Dark (Inferno).
Yes! Alone in the Dark Inferno please!
Another good Alone in the Dark topic would be Illumination, the legendarily shitty Left 4 Dead ripoff that has nothing whatsoever to do with Alone in the Dark that Atari hoped no one would notice.
Haseo Reviews Yes, That, or probably the biggest video game movie disaster: Alone in the Dark (2003) by Uwe Boll.
Alone in the Dark is honestly an interesting series, as not one game after the first one, with the exception of New Nightmare, was made without being rushed, underdeveloped, or both.
12:48 I await the 2042 Wha Happun'.
Drakengard apparently had a bad development cycle and was saved when Yoko Taro took over (much like Miyazaki and Demon's souls). Would love to see an episode on that.

Eva 01 the PR team of EA is straight up retarded
@@ToruKurosawa I'll be honest and say I bought it right after launch. I put a lot of hours into BF1, the material shown in the trailers appealed to me, press reviews were decent aaaand I stopped playing BF V after about 8 hours. I didn't care for the drama leading up to release but all the missing game modes, features and bugs at release immediately killed the game for me. Never reviseted the game and with the end of the support cycle mid-year, I never will. Ah well, lesson learned.
@@ToruKurosawa Sales don't automatically make it a success. Look at Stadia

Little did this man know that he predicted that the next BF game will have a fuck ton of numbers that spell out a date.

Not to mention the ridiculous amounts of overpriced DLC it has.
It's hilarious how much of a new audience BF gained from BF3 and then went on to alienate that audience who fell in love with the BF formula in the further games
Oh snap. Get to watch another awesome episode as I grind away whilst at work.

Also one of the big problems was the blatant re-usage of weapons from Battlefield 1, but not the ones that played a significant role in WW2 too (Springfield 1903, C96), but the ones that were already prototype/minuscule in WW1 (Selbstlader 1906/1916, Ribeyrolles, Remington 8). I don't mind prototype weapons, but at least put WW2 prototype weapons in it and not reused BF1 assets
I'm sure 2042 turned out great and is beloved by fans and developers alike.....right?
Well to be honest the big reason why so many fans disliked the first trailer wasn't mainly because of women(though that certainly was a factor).
It was mainly because of historical inauthenticity, something that BF1 never had a problem with. It is one thing to see a woman in soldier uniform and absolutely another to see a woman with mechanical arms and facepainting in battle. The marketing simply didn't preset the game correctly and the game itself had a lot of problems with being authentic to WW2.
"How many times do we have to teach you this lesson old man"
Let's be real. The whole argument of "Gamers are angry just because there are playable female characters" is really, really dumb.
You can be progressive or you can be realistic you can't be both.
You’re wrong dude. People really value historical accuracy. Seeing a female marine on the shores of Iwo-Jima is a huge immersion breaker. Then you’re reminded they’re doing it for inclusion which makes you double pissed.
Yeah I didn’t care about the women at all but I still disliked the game; live service games are such a garbage term to me now
Cameron Heaton The battlefield series hasn’t ever been super realistic just more realistic than call of duty, I still remember the original 1942 using expermental weapons that weren’t ever used in the war
@@DefineLines True and worst, there were women that fought in WW2 such as Aleksandra Samusenko that was a T-34 tank commander so the whole "genderwashing" is even more insulting.
Its not that "women fighting in WWII" is wrong but rather "not showing the actual women that fought in WWII and instead insert then were they didnt fought" because people will catch anachronisms like female marines in 1945 and will call on that.
That funny enough makes then racist because Soviets had females on combat roles but we cannot show the Russians in any good light because we always been at war with Eastasia.
The name mostly likely stems from the fact that the letter V was a prominent symbol for Allied forces during WWII.
Morning, Matt!
It annoys me that One has to live in the shadow of this... thing.
Just like Spyro in Enter the Dragonfly.
It is seriously wishful thinking that EA will give any of it's dev's time to polish and finish their games...ever! EA know only one rule, get it in store shelves by X date no matter what...*sigh*
"I hope that the next Battlefield will have enough polish, bug testing, and content at launch..."
Let me put it this way, Matt: I bought 2042 at launch. I returned it the same day, and the GameStop cashier didn't even care that I already played it, he was just like, "Yeah, this game sucks, I don't blame you for returning it." I got Modern Warfare instead.
The problem with the first trailer for V was not the VVomen it was the epic tryhard Fortniteness of it.
Close enough for the name of their next game being 2042.
I was trying to think of Michael Pachter's name like two months ago. GameTrailers loved posting his videos where he'd talk about how big his house was and make predictions about Nintendo that turned out completely wrong.
This one was never off to a great start...
So I joined a bf platoon while playing bf1. They thought I was fun to play with and ended up joining a good sized group with good, dedicated battlefield players (one of my friends had the highest bomber score in the world). When bfv came around, I didn't wanna buy it but leadership convinced me that shifting was important to stay relevant and grow our group. For over a year expanded and joined competitive groups, but dealt with shitty support, missing content, bugs, glitches, bullshit and delays. No one liked it really but we had to stick together. But once Warzone dropped, everyone abandoned battlefield v, even veterans that swore off of CoD forever. It's the only game I actually regret buying and hope the next title can bring it all back.
Battlefield V was teased and torn apart, its launch was flaccid, it had some mediocre fun for a while, and then they decided to go against all of the fans say and patch the game to require a million bullets to kill someone. This game stunk from the start and fizzled out as a fart.
I love the battlefield series, but this game was awful. you can still see the stink lines on it.
05:42 people didnt like that mission because despite the "historical accuracy" claim that mission erased the irl Norwegian commandos who did that
Can we get a video for dragon age 2 I remember how much they promised for that game and how much we didn't get
"Battlefield V - wha happun?" *big EA logo on tumbnail
Damn it Matt, you spoiled the whole video
Well anyone with a brain listened to them, if you don't like it, don't buy it...
Weird how Matt never bothered to touch upon this moment; it might as well have been the killing blow for the game before it was even released.
might not align with his political perspective
Who else is here because they're waiting for the 2042 video?
You probably thought it wouldn't get worse than this. Nope. Introducing Battleflop 2042.
They didn’t have to butcher accuracy to get women in. The Russians had an all female sniper unit in ww2 that had an astonishing kill count.
And they didn't have to change history like replacing the Norwegian soldiers and putting a girl and her mother there like where's the night witches the badass all female bomber squadron's
I really don't think they ever cared about historical accuracy and I'm not sure why it's a problem for Battlefield 5 but it wasn't a problem for Battlefiled which had automatic weapons as standard issue and solders in steel plate amour tanking bullets while wielding heavy machine guns, if historical accuracy is what's most important then you should probably play Red Orcestra or something
Geoff the truth is that it wouldn't have mattered how accurate it was. They just didn't want girls in the game. They sure as hell never gave a shit about any of the other stuff that was inaccurate in the game. That's not a defense of the games over all quality. Just pointing out how absurd the whole "there's girls in the game and the world is burning" outcry was.
