what is everyone’s opinion about d-day in reverse. personally i think it is POS map that should be removed.
regular d-day is bad enough, but the one in reverse is 10 times worse. attackers have high point and can snipe you when you climb, static defenses are not destroyed, so they can easily be used against defenders. bunkers are made to be easily entered from attackers side and defenders need to go through open terrain to reinforce cap points.
btw will provide average time for regular and reverse and it should be enough to tell about balance of the map.
idk why the gamedevs don’t do this.
Like get the community to make mod maps on a custom system and allow people to play them and people can vote the ones they like or maybe at the end there be like a ranking system. Just off the top of my head it would have to be looked into more and fully fleshed out so we can avoid this. Or maybe edit it so the front of the bunkers have been blown open by large naval guns and as a result the back entrance to it have collapsed.
Basically just reverse Normandy so you start off at the windmill (Maybe farmhouse I’ve only played windmill) and fight down using the bunkers but they haven’t been changed whatsoever so it’s very poorly designed (Probably rushed)
this is what pisses me the most. i wouldnt even be that mad if they even showed little work put into the map to make it more balanced. but it is just straight copy without any thought about balance.
map was made so attackers have hard time to attack (which is ok for d-day map), but in reverse defenders have even worse time. at minimum they should have removed static MG from reverse map
I always loved the D-Day defense, it was my favorite battle setting ever. But now, when suddenly Allies are defending an empty beach, and Germans are walking into defensive bunkers through the open doors and use defensive MG nests in the bunkers for attack, this map looks idiotic. This kind of gameplay makes me sick throughout the whole battle and I only wish to play something else - anything else but not this.
The map has been reworked to make it easier for the Allies to get to the objectives - that I can understand, even though this may be not very historically correct. It still gave me the feeling of World War II battle theater. This reverse defense, however, is something totally disgusting. I started playing high tier Allies and thought I would like it, but every time I get this idiotic reverse defense I wanna quit.
PS. I really thought this battle mode appearing recently was a bug - it is beyond my comprehension that inverse Normandy could be introduced on purpose. And why now, after like 3 years when it was always a normal German defense like it’s supposed to be?
There shouldn’t be a d-day in reverse tbh, It should just be a conquest map as well, like how it is in HLL. You can play Omaha on Offensive and Warfare.
I can’t stand it, I already accepted the thought of less exp and more bots (I will be playing custom battles only with high tier Germany and USA to avoid this nonsense)
