Personally I’m the kind of player that prefers to use faction appropriate stuff. That means when I play as the British I only use Lee-Enfields and won’t even touch Garands. In fact I find it laughable in Normandy when I encounter Americans with Lee-Enfields, Stens, Brens, and PIATs.
The same goes for Paratroopers. Various Paratrooper squads have a mish mash of loadouts. For example, the Normandy British Vickers K squad has the Bazooka as their AT loadout, and the American Thompson squad has the British Two-Inch Mortar. This makes me only choose certain Paratrooper loadouts because I prefer them being immersive to the squad
I think the most perfect Paratrooper squad is the Tunisian British BSA Welgun squad. Every single one of their loadouts is entirely British, even the grenades and mines.They are fully British
I think they should make all Paratrooper squad loadouts be immersive for their country. So for example, the American Thompson squad has the M2 Mortar, the British Vickers K gets the PIAT and British AT mines, and so on and so fourth.
Of coarse this could be solved if one day we’re able to customize Paratrooper loadouts ourselves, but for now I think this would be a good compromise
Current lodout use campaign gun but it would be nice if after the merge were is possible their lodout become national and not factional, even let the player select the crate lodout would be nice
Seconded. Plus I would also want to have the option where my American machine gunners are not using British grenades, ammo pouches, mines, flasks, axes and what not in Tunisia. I wanted to keep my British and American squads distinct. But since there are no American radio operators for the Allies in Tunisia I had to keep a British guy in my sole American machine gunner squad. I don’t even get to transfer the event swords which I had saved up for the Americans in Normandy to Tunisia. Breaks the immersion for me a little bit. Hopefully, all these things will be fixed after the merge.
Whenever I try to drop onto the point AND someone there sees me coming, I almost always get immediately squad wiped regardless of which para squad I’m using.
