I love Japanese armor, they look awesome, maybe we could add it to regular soldiers?
A group of soldiers wearing Japanese armor and holding rifles? Wow, that looks cool
Maybe we could give it some special properties? Something like Soviet army armor, 10% less damage?
I can imagine that when such a scene appears in the Pacific Ocean, the samurai spirit will never die.
You Can no longer dishonor yourself by using Firearms!!!
yes, but only if you will have to use rifles as seen on image 
I was lured by the game to purchase the Samurai armour and helmet for all the other squad members. It took away 40 customization orders from me and gave me nothing.
Why not play a game about 18th century japan though?
Enlisted is about ww2 (at least for now).
Because it’s fun to run around with a katana as a Samurai (and at least partially historically accurate)
Then let’s also add roman legionaries.
Deal
Nah bro, even 4th century Roman Legionaries looked entirely different.
This is what 20th century Roman Legionaries look like:
But that’s too ww2, it’s boring.
Forgive me for failing your expectations.
i wish i could agree no one wants sci-fi in game
nor do i want after ww2
but if you want realism you have to remove a lot more than prototypes and limited production
at higher levels Germany looses most of its air force
at lower levels there are a lot of horses and bolt actions
that they existed and entered battle does not mean they were common
this was not standard issue or even common
tanks would be only issued after tens of squads of infantry
machine guns were not nearly as common
actually ww2 was boring, having one life, spending days on end between actions, most soldiers got a bolt action and a couple grenades
i agree saurai armor should be limited but when you can observe you’;re tank from the outside like god the game was never authentic
You say the game was never authentic so I should calm down and yet you want to limit samurai armor. Please explan.
With about half a million produced, it was actually fairly common with frontline troops, on average every frontline squad having at least one of these.
Making it more common than BAR.
But artillery crews, chefs, supply corps, garrisons, mechanics ect… Had zero of them.
Kinda like how M1 Garand and M1 Carbine was distributed.
Make sense if you consider that you need 12-20 support personel for every frontline soldier.
It’s true that Sturmgewehr only became wide spread towards the end of the war and it was actually common for most of the war.
German soldiers in WW2:
as for combat tested i am guessing at about 1 percent or a few thousand
most were likely sunk in ship, shot down in planes, blown up on road or rails
given the desperate situation at the end of the war
The 1st Infantry Division of Army Group South and 32nd Infantry Division of Army Group North were selected to be issued the rifle stg44.
Id guess majority
Considering the situation I would guess again majority
Again id guess majority
Again id guess majority
Idk, nor I dont know how many were fired with ultimate happiness.
and they received how many
1st infantry division for sure was fully equipped with stg44’s.
Again id guess majority
based on what, not being destroyed in transit to the depot, not being destroyed in transit to the fronts
you would have to assume all three divisions were armed with the guns
that every soldier got on (many would be support or other duties)
that would still be 45,000 soldier so unless each got ten no not the majority
compared to weapon in the millions and hundreds of thousands that served in ww2 while not rare it would have been far less common then the German pistols taken as trophies
