This is just personal feedback about authenticity and variety. In WWII the Russians had women fight as well in the war, anyone who could carry a rifle could fight when it reached the Motherland. So I am just pitching the idea of maybe adding female soldier variants to the Russian side of the Moscow campaign at least, or any Russian sides in a fight. A few different outfits that maybe are unique or rare when getting a soldier depending on # of would also be an interesting addition. Like i said these are just personal suggestions for the game, feel free to ignore if you want, just thought it would make it interesting and inclusive for those who want some kind of representation in game.
In addition for those more in the fun of playing the campaigns and levels maybe a randomize campaign button can be added as well as the button to play any side to the select campaign screen. This may just make it more accessible and give people a chance to be thrown into any of the campaigns.
This has been discussed so many times. yes women made up a relatively large number, but very, very few (if any) were frontline roles. Maybe some pilots or snipers would work but it wouldn’t be common to have them in your standard rifle squad, main reasons being a. they just aren’t as strong or durable as your average man and b. the nazis did very fucking awful things to the women fighters they found, so they wouldn’t be in this position to save them from these fates as well as saving the men from the loss of morale that would happen in the event of capture
I understand and history was not kind in ww2 by any means, I more just meant it as a rare occurrence within the character pool where you get soldiers. I know the rough history but I had a moment of nostalgia during the Moscow campaign in which i remembered playing as the sniper woman from COD Finest Hour and wished to pretend to be that badass sniper girl again.
In a Q&A a while ago the devs did say that they were looking into added women fighters where they had historically fought, so they are probably coming at some point. More then likely will be premium though
Women were a minority of their front line troops, if at all. Maybe a few snipers would be fine though, as long as their the same height as their male counterparts. We don’t need inconsistent hit boxes.
They work at it.
Maybe a premium squad… or one gold order unique soldier. I believe they were mostly seen in the defense of Moscow, but I doubt they took much part in the counter offensive that assaulted Berlin.
Fair enough and yeah I had mixed up Berlin and Moscow in my typing of this thread
