Historical accuracy

hey Devs, hopefully this post catches your eyes. (this is not gameplay related)

I know most of the player base don’t care, but there are a few that do care for historical accuracy.

With common infantry having access to rare weapons may be passable but when it comes to tanks i feel quite annoyed to have divisions having tanks that where no part of their inventory.

I only play Normandy and Berlin so i can’t talk for the other campaigns,

with Allies in normandy:

  • im not going to go into this came up multiple times of the forums, Jumbos arrived in september and chaffees in november.

  • Guards Armored Firefly Camouflage… how did you come up with that? through out the western campaign some vehicles would have a similar pattern but with green/black

Axis normandy:
-12th SS did not have any panzer 3s… they had Panther Ds and As, Panzer 4 H and Js and Jagdpanzer IVs L/48,

-Panzer 4 J with ostketten, there are a lot of discussions about this, in the western front there wheren’t any… the premium tank for 10th SS is as it should be so this can be changed…

-17th SS and their new STUG, with this i’m annoyed so much that i made this post :joy:… the stug is the most common armored vehicle for the germans yet is only available for 60euros, appart from that 17th ss had STUG 4s not 3s… the only stug 3 they had was the one they used to train with before the stug 4s arrived, and that was not a STUG 3 G, it was an F/8 (old model). and come on… no camo? the british tank that most probably didn’t have camo looks like someone puked on it and the actual “tank” that had camo, doesnt have any :joy:

i have all Premium vehicles in normandy, i don’t use all of them but since its my favorite campaign i like to support it, this will be the first time not buying them.

with Berlin axis:

The 503 heavy tank battalion had only Tiger 2s and a couple of tiger 1s and the 25th panzer grenadier only had stug 3s (if in photos or documents it says they had tiger 1 support its because there was a heavy tank battalion close to them)

as i said this is not gameplay related and these things are minor, but i play this game as i find it a middle ground between Hell let loose and Shitty COD.

If you need to research for equipment/uniforms/vehicles/weaponry feel free to msg me, i’m not all-knowing but I have dozens of historical books that might help especially for normandy.

Thanks for listening. :grin:

The historical inaccuracies you mention have been brought up numerous times … and honestly the dev’s just don’t care …

So if you can get past some of these things and realize that enlisted can be a pseudo historical game with fun game play …

My hope is that it doesn’t get to the point where my enjoyment is taken away by shear ridiculousness.

Armor trains for instance is really getting there but I’m waiting to see if the mode is enjoyable enough to keep me interested …

And it even has wrong name, it is named Panzer Division in game, when it is Panzergrenadier division. Small mistake, but still something that bothers me.

And i agree with most thing you stated. Uniforms are really bad.

Edit. They could also rename it to Sturmgeschütz-Abteilung 17 instead of Panzer one.

Here is some more that dates all the way back to Closed alpha test; panzer 3B and Ba-11 in Moscow

Pretty fun rigth

Its almost like people don’t search the forums to see if they are wasting their time first.

The sad part they have time to waste for this

i mean,

tunisia ain’t accurate either, nor moscow…
( outdated tanks for the majority ) ( T60s in moscow despite being used in leningrad only along side Mkhbs 42s :upside_down_face: )

so it doesn’t really matter. it’s not always and ONLY normandy my dear…

we could same the same about majority of your posts?

but no one ain’t saying much about them.
don’t see why you have to be a jerk on the others :slight_smile:
( no harsh feelings of course ).

yep, read most of them (i think) lets have hope for them to do more research before implementing things, the more posts the better.

regarding the gameplay i love it, this is the reason i do this post.

actually in the documents and action reports its still called “panzer-abteilung 17” (they where still hoping to get the panzer ivs i think :joy:)

Not saying they are in the slightest, but I always find it funny how its always Normandy that gets the posts.

which fortgot to say,

but enlisted is all but historical accurate.

yeah, you are right.

i suppose because it’s the one that has more attentions due to d-day.

Again, I find it FUNNY how its always historical accuracy posts focused on Normandy.

There was no hate directed to it, I was just point out the fact that I found it humorous.

No need for insults.

Normandy has the greatest player base, apart from that its one of the most famous campaign, with plenty of books and documentaries where you can learn from, and kind of the beginning of the end really.

I apologize if i sounded rude

at least I do not say the same things as a parrot, without even checking if there are already on the forum no! 7 months that I read the usual bullshit about how “Normandy is not historically accurate” I believe that from the top of your throne you would allow that now I don’t care about that campaign anymore, and sticking on how long I spend on the forum you believe it an insult or some kind of insult you have a long way to go to make people angry

if they keep making mistakes you keep reminding them, how else will the fix that? i love this game and the things i want will not break the game, so if it was for you i’m not allowed to post this.

what?? :joy: :rofl: :joy: :rofl: so i love reading about history and now i sit on a throne? hahahaa

good now don’t reply to post about the campaign you don’t care about then

in fact I didn’t reply to you but to @41048361 you did everything, I wasn’t even talking about you, I didn’t even read the topic I just answered him
where would my mistake be?

let me rephrase; don’t post on threads/topics you don’t care about

this is better, I realize that you do not like comments not related to your topics I will avoid making them in the future in your topics, I suggest you place a nice disclaimer at the top of the page, I have one already ready from my old review if you want it I send it
