Yet that’s realistically what you’re gonna get if you ask for those campaigns.
That could be cool, but would need a lot of thought, testing and fine tuning. That would require work and money, none of which gaijin is willing to put into this game anymore.
The fact that they still haven’t fixed the enfield and G41 reloads supports that.
It’s basically the same as Enlisted. I’d argue it’s even less arcady.
RO2 has been suggested to me a few times. And I’m pretty sure you can find more. The eastern front is a very popular topic after all.
I have tried it but I can’t take battles between Tiges and post-war T-55s somewhere in Sweden seriously, when their enemies are Japanese and American. Or the A-B-C conquest gamemode, which is plain boring.
But more than anything I just like combined arms games: infantry, tanks, planes, boats.
I haven’t tried it so far, it’s also over 10 years old and I don’t think there’s combined arms there.
Surprisingly, it isn’t. It’s always Normandy, Normandy, sometimes Pacific and North Africa.
BFV completely ignored it and there was a lot of BS there, CoD WW2 and Vanguard were just the epitome of BS and mostly ignored it, Post Scriptum ignored it, HLL added it after a couple years but it still feels like a walking simulator to me, and before that… I think the last time I was allowed to drive a T-34 and run with PPSh-41 at Kursk was BF1942 in like 2002, and battle of Moscow - never in ~20 years of gaming.
And I’d argue Enlisted also has a crap ton of BS. With the gameplay being simply rush with smg I just can’t take it as anything more than an arcady shooter.
Probably should then. It’s been reccomended to me as the best game for the eastern front by quite a few people.
So far it does the job of scratching my itch of running around between village houses you’re familiar with with weapons you grew up seeing in movies and driving the tanks you’ve built countless times from lego as a kid.
I might give RO2 a try one day, indeed.
