In the game "Battlefield 1" there is a long list of weapons to use. How accurate is it to the weapons that were accurately used in WW1?

In the game "Battlefield 1" which is set during the first World War (or the Great War, as it was called during that time), there are a large arsenal to choose and use.

From prototype assault rifles to SMGs, shotguns and even LMGs and people even covered in body armour.

How accurate is it to how WW1 was really fought?

More than can be said, but do check out this AMA on WWI Small Arms, and this one done just in advance of BF1's release.
