Banzai Charges / Hooah, Oorah

Banzai!

Banzai was widely used during Japanese attacks. Will we get a button or mechanic to yell Banzai at our enemies? At the same time, Can we get a mechanic for the Marines to yell Oorah as they charge their enemies?

This term came from the Japanese battle cry “Tennōheika Banzai” (天皇陛下万歳, meaning "Long live His Majesty the Emperor "), and was shortened to banzai, specifically referring to the tactic used by the Imperial Japanese Army during the Pacific War.

Hooah/Oorah

Oorah is a battle cry common in the United States Marine Corps since the mid-20th century . It is comparable to hooah in the US Army and hooyah in the US Navy and US Coast Guard. It is most commonly used to respond to a verbal greeting or as an expression of enthusiasm.

  • On D-Day, 1944, on Omaha Beach, General Cota, the 29th Division Assistant Division Commander asked a group of Rangers from the 2nd Ranger Battalion, “Where’s your commanding officer?” They pointed him out and said, “Down there, sir.” General Cota reportedly followed their direction and, on his way down the beach, said, “Lead the way, Rangers!” The Rangers from 2nd Bat reportedly said, “WHO, US?” General Cota thought he heard them say “HOOAH!” He was so impressed with their cool and calm demeanor, not to mention their cool term, hooah, he decided to make it a household name.

My Opinion…
50% of the new Campaign depends on BANZAiii Attack.

Indeed, this is a new gameplay feature. I hope not only in the new campaign (although most likely it will be again first in the new one, then in the rest).
It also depends very much on their implementation. After all, you dont will be able to send the whole squad to a bayonet attack, which is very bad…
