Is it just me or is this Battlefield Heroes Textures??

I am a Battlefield Heroes Vet and when I saw this at Pax I saw so many similarities, the character models are identical to those in BFH just the eyes being made black instead of the white and black pupils. Also the objects in game and the ship wreck looks a lot like Buccaneer Bay. The barrels look like the kegs in BFH.

I mean just look at this trailer and you will see the similarities instantly!

I don't mean to rain on the parade as I am currently installing the game and I am excited to play, I just feel like I am going crazy seeing these similarities and I want to know if the developers did this on purpose or something.

Hi I EAT BURRITOS,

First off, great username.

Second of all, brightly colored low-poly artstyles are not uncommon in videogames, and for good reason; they have a very high range of appeal, and allow for detailed yet clean looking visuals. Though I do not work at GETUP Games, these reasons do apply to many other comparable games, and I do see the similarities.
Rest assured that the game uses it's own models, and some elements being constructed as we speak! In fact, you can follow the progress of the modelling and the rest of the development through the roadmap, linked on their website, or through their Discord.

We're huge fans of Battlefield heroes here, so it was definitely an influence.

You are not going crazy. Battlefield Heroes was one of the games we played and enjoyed the most. Me, alone had 7 level 30 heroes and played thousands of hours. And yeah I bought lots of battlefunds as well. :D Battlefield Heroes has been one of the things that inspired us the make Blazing Sails. ;)
