It was the most ferocious and brutal battle in the history of mankind to date, its inclusion in enlisted was really interesting but unfortunately it was abandoned and I would really like this “campaign” to receive much more love since it is one of my favorites. Some suggestions I have are:
Environmental improvements: The city was brutally bombed by the German air force and by the artillery of both sides, which fired incessantly. In enlisted, although we see many buildings in ruins, the environment looks relatively clean, as if the fighting had already ended
That’s why I would like to make the environment more “dirty” and not make it look so clean. They could add huge smoke screens around the city, very similar to Berlin, of course separating them so that they don’t obstruct the view of any pilot.
A while ago I saw a very similar suggestion which asked to add a snowy climate to the current city map, the suggestion in question is from user iso_seppo123 and I think it’s a very good idea to have a second version of the map with more destroyed buildings, more smoke, more fire, more hellish in every sense… if they don’t plan to give the campaign more maps, at least adding a winter version of the city wouldn’t do anything wrong, that way we would have 3 maps: city (autumn) city (winter) Tractor factory.
As I said, Stalingrad is a map I like quite a bit, but fighting on it in BR5 games is totally horrible, not so much because of how ridiculous it can be to use weapons and vehicles from the end of the war on that map, but because the map itself is not designed for exaggeratedly frenetic combats like a BR5 game can be, so… how can they finally limit Stalingrad to Low BR? Easy, for this they could add one more map of the Eastern Front, more precisely one based on a late battle, such as Crimea, and have it take the place of Stalingrad in High BR
Add a new district to the city.
This district would be an expansion of the city, in which there could be a set of apartments, including Pavlov’s house. This district could incorporate a sewer system that serves to flank the enemy or carry out ambushes.
PS: I had already suggested this a while ago (except for the winter Stalingrad thing) but I guess I have nothing to lose by suggesting it again.
And yes I love Stalingrad, it’s recreated in incredible detail in Enlisted, I can confirm this after visiting some of those places modern day Volgograd myself.
(Literally walked inside Repnikova House, which now serves as a Museum).
Would love to see Stalingrad get more attention and content.
They could also add some random stalingrad suburb using the existing generic buildings. It wouldnt be hard to implement and it would be refreshing so you dont need to capture univermag 30 times.
Paulus was captured in the basement of Univermag, so now You know the goal of your meatgrinder assaults
Could be nice to see partialy frozen Volga river and it’s banks added. Also romanian, hungarian and italian units (tech, event, premium) since they covered 6th army flanks.
I would argue it is because Stalingrad is a “young” campaign (preset) since Pacific also has only like two unique maps iirc with Burma not being Pacific.
And I think Normandy only has three unique maps as the “rural areas” are either mixed with D-Day or Ver-Sur.
The issue is keeping making map for different theatre a rotation without focus on one in particular and keep adding new one, Stalingrad as Tunisia and Moscow one day get a new map, the question is when?
