The issue that Battlefield 1 has that CoD would have is that by putting the game into the setting without any changes to gameplay you wind up with a WWI that's paced and plays exactly like a shooter set in the modern day. I wouldn't even say that BF1 does the First World War well conceptually, as the game doesn't even play in a way that remotely represents the war.
