BR maps change update also increases historical accuracy

Suggestions

Hello comrades!

Hot take, but i think that change could also somewhat increase historical accuracy in other ways.

I know Tiger 2, STGs, AS-44s and more in Moscow is unrealistic.

But otherwise with that BR map change we get other historical things back:

  • PPSH, PPD-38/40, AVS 36, Maxim-Tokarev, Fedorov, SVT/AKT/AVT-40, PPD1929, PP Shpitalny-40, Thompson-100, PPD DZ, PPSH Parkerized, Fedorov MG etc. in Moscow

  • Vstg 1-5, Mp-3008, volkssturm lebel1891, guerilla volkssturm pps43 etc. in Berlin

  • MG-42 early, ZH-29, MP-717(r), Suomi-Kp31, MG-39, Flammenwerfer-41, in Moscow

Losing some historical accuracy in some ways
Adding more historical accuracy in other ways

-1 and +1 is 0 again, so a BR map change would not impact historical accuracy that much.

A reminder: i am not talking about gameplay issues, pros/cons.

Only about the historical accuracy :upside_down_face:

i’m sorry.

but remind me again of what historically accuracy are we speaking about ?

unless you are planning on making volkssturm weapons br IV/V and effectively make more weapons go above in br and make others to even remotely fit, you, as long the other HA advocates, are way off.

the crazy amount of work required to even make it functional accordingly is not worthed the effort given the results.

which i would like to remind you most people dont care about that.
hell, part of the reasons why the new tunisia and moscow were moved to high br it’s because people asked in the past for that.

I dont get the point with historical accuracy, i just told that if some weapons become less historically accurately available on some maps, other weapons will become more historically available.

And if i remember correctly, people didnt like moscow, tunisia in high BR because of STGs and AS44s in too open areas. But to that, i already added that i was only talking about historical accuracy, and not gameplay issues.

well, no.

because doing just that will go against what you’re trying to achieve in the first place.

it’s still not gonna be historical accurate, no matter what you do, and it’s still to either limit equipment that wasn’t there, or allows it.

making the entire " historical accuracy " argument go off the window.

i mean… one thing is being new and not knowing better.
but still clinging in the past is all sort of things but healthy.

not quite.
people didn’t cared.
beside, the ho ri stuff would have been a clear indication of the direction.

enlisted can only be historical accurate with custom made profiles.

the base game will never be, nor has to.
because as shown, most people don’t really mind or care to begin with.
hell, even notice.

because it’s mostly made by an arcade audience.

Grading by year can maximize historical accuracy. There may be some issues in terms of space, but at least it is consistent in time. Of course, under this system, some fictional weapons and vehicles will not hold up.

and you expect developers to go on a 180 just to get the full wrath of disattisfied customers since what they bought for would be removed or moved up the ladders of br making them useless?

yeah, i may not be a business woman, but i can tell you it’s called buisness suicide.
especially not worth just to appease few disgruntle members still stucked with the old advertising team and " selling " points.

i’m not sure what else is there to say beside enlisted will never be historical accurate, nor ever has been to begin with. to which, you don’t have to take my words for it. but facts and developers them selves has proven from time to time that it’s not the case, and their actions speaks louder than i’ll ever be able to do.

it’s like saying fifa it’s a footbal simulator.
( perhaps the gambling is )

Once someone mentions historical accuracy, they will be attacked, just like now. It’s not that no one cares about historical accuracy – you can often see people bringing it up, but it’s selectively ignored.

yeah.
because historical accurate games are not fun for most people, and even less balanced generally.

of course they ( developers and other folks ) are not gonna scare away the primary target audience of the playerbase.

arcady casual gamers.
which there’s nothing wrong with that.

but these " historical accuracy " people really need to learn that.
or… just think about what they are even trying to suggest.

and fun fact, i am one for historical accuracy.
i love to research uniforms, know about units, vehicles and all that stuff to put and use for my own mods.

but you don’t see me making 80 posts over the years asking for unpopular radical changes and then be sad when people bashes such idea ?
