The vocal ones are almost always a minority when it comes to games. The rest either don’t mind (at least not enough to do anything) and play without saying anything, or do mind and leave silently.
The reason why I push for an overhaul is because it would make the game better in the long run. Current situation is not intolerable, but it still is a clear flaw and it will only get worse as they add more content.
If it’s Stalingrad or even it isn’t, most important is historical accuracy.
I don’t want to use Lazer guns just because the right weapons are already being used on other campaigns.
Presently I’m saving all orders so I can use them on the new campaign.
I’m honestly hoping it’s Stalingrad with the weapons that were used there.
I really don’t want to see Russians with panzerfaust as default weapon.
I would like to see the likes of Guards rifle infantry
I’d like to see Penal battalions
Also tiger tanks and kv1s.
Engenders should be able to set up trenches that other units can use.
This isn’t about wanting to get equipment that doesn’t belong in the campaign. It’s about unlocking the things you already have, things you’ve spent many hours unlocking, in some cases up to 4 times already.
I think the biggest issue in regards to that is if they release new weapons that are less powerful and earlier in the tree, but you had a more powerful weapon later on in the tree unlocked in another campaign, chances are the majority of players would use the better gun rather than the new one.
What you’ve described already takes place, except that you still have to unlock it all and in predetermined order.
There are ways around that. Many ways. Especially considering that we have a squad system in place. It’s been discussed at length many times already, don’t know if there’s any point in listing it all here again.
In short, I think what this game needs is “level up through use” kind of progression for unlocks. Combined with a system that limits how much highly advanced / powerful / rare gear each squad can carry. That should make all weapons and vehicles desired at least for something.
I guess you misunderstood what I was getting at because what I described isn’t taking place, because every campaign starts at level one and you have to grind all the weapons out for each campaign.
What I was saying that there would be the issue of new campaigns introducing new weapons, and if we go by only having to grind for a weapon once, better weapons would be prioritized over new weapons.
how to have a german army without kar98k’s and mp40’s?
So you can’t send weapons to a different campaign which also has that weapon? It isn’t the case that newer weapons are currently pointless unless they are more powerful than what’s already in game? It was all but a dream I guess. I do agree that a misunderstanding is taking place.
How did you come to a conclusion this what I meant? The problem is not that you have the same weapons in multiple campaigns, it’s that you need to unlock them every time.
It’s possible to send them from a different campaign (with stupid star enchantment gone), but that is not a solution. It isn’t interesting or rewarding, it’s just a crutch that doesn’t fix the fundamental design problem.
They need to unify progression for each nation, or at the very least for each theater of war. Things are already getting out of hand with 4 campaigns (most things felt like pointless filler in 3rd and 4th campaigns), it will only get worse as they add more.
No, you of course understand the current situation with how the game works rn. My point is that it’s hard to not grind for duplicates since the game isn’t chronological. We didn’t start from the Invasion of Poland, so, for example, weapons earned from the Berlin campaign (the last battle in the European Theater) would automatically be unlocked for campaigns with an earlier setting. So mid-war campaigns, having late war weapons at the end of the progression, would automatically give you the late war weapons with what people are asking for, probably unintentionally, with removing duplicate grind.
It’s like a woman without tits innit?
im praying that darkflow learned from the tunisia lashback over copypasting and makes stalingrad the minor nations campaign; IE incorporating many units, weapons and vehicles from nations like Czech, Austria, Poland etc.
The soviets are going to be a hard sell, especially if they start adding in a dozen SMGs again. I cant stand Moscow and its PPD/PPsH spam, i wont even touch stalingrad if they go down that road again, tiger or no tiger.
