Methinks they have left all the historical accuracy they mentioned in the interviews (how much of it we'll see, we don't know) for the single-player - swastikas and jews included - while the MP was never intended to be historical, just mindless fun. So I don't think we'll see strange optical stuff or K98 with 7 round magazine in the SP...I guess. Personally I'm not agreeing with their idea of a multiplayer mode set in an historical setting completely lacking accuracy or at least some attempt to authenticity and I think it's a shame.
In the earliest WWII CoDs, MP didn't look like a simulator, but Axis used Axis weapons, Allies used Allies weapons just as they were in the Single Player and there was no anxiety to be inclusive and PC to the paradox (black wehrmacht women).
The trend of leaving "authenticity" aside had started already with Call of Duty World at War, which may not have had white banzai chargers or black soviet women, but still had all the optics, silencers and unrealistic stuff you can see in COD WWII, including US Marines armed with German or Russian weapons etc., so I'm surprised to hear people being this outraged and surprised.
They just probably don't trust their public to have fun with an "authentic" multiplayer, that's why it has become this stupid.
If you want a good WWII multiplayer experience, just go (or go back) to play Red Orchestra or Darkest Hour - or Day of Infamy for a more arcadey experience. Really, I'm not saying it like "go to hell", it's for your own good. Old graphics or not.
