Hi all, with addition of new content to the Normandy campaign, we can see that Darkflow has started abandoning the idea of historical accuracy in this game, or at least started to be more flexible with it.
So, what do you think about renaming the campaigns to theater operations that don’t cover the exact space and time. Example:
Rename “Battle of Moscow” to something like “Barbarrossa” or “Moscow to Stalingrad”
How would this benefit the campaign. It will give the devs more flexibility in adding different equipment that is not so cramped at certain point of time. Lets try to check all angles:
All the equipment used in 1941 Moscow was still being used in the 1942, at least what survived. We would not have ranting, ah this tank was not here or there and so on.
Now we don’t have T34 because Axis don’t have anything to counter, but this way they could put PZ3L, PZ4 F2 and Stug F8 to counter these and there you have it
From Finish front to Black sea - devs already started crating guns used by Finish troops, we even have a whole thread about it. Would you give money for premium minor nation squads, tanks, aircraft? I know I would.
Maps like Fortified district - to me they are totally not related to some particular place, don’t mind using them. It’s not like we have specific places in Berlin campaign
Same thing can be done for Normany - rename it to “Western front” or “Liberation of France”… dont know, be creative. At least we would not have isues like these:
I am aware that there is Stalingrad campaign somewhere in the files, but why not combine them and just add more levels (that are higher in the line, harder to reach for F2P grinders, monetization is secure) to this one? Just an idea, would like to hear your thoughts.
Well you need to “understand” something problematic with this, the German army Changed A LOT in terms of tanks and vehicles during that time while the Russians basically used the same equipment.
So you gonna have Situation of
T-26 fighting panthers and tigers
Or Pz 2 fighting a KV-85 or even T-34-85.
I read it. I think you are understanding it too strictly. So if something is 01th January 1942 it is a no no for campaign in 1941? I think not. Whole point of it so they can tweak it how it suites them.
So again, Panther in 1942? Nope
Tiger in 1942? Soviets don’t have anything to counter it, nope. (We have the same thing in Moscow campaign right now with T34)
Stalingrad was going until 1943 February if you add it to Moscow and change the name you will have tanks of two TOTALLY different levels fighting each other.
Even Pz 4 G or H as the top tank will be totally broken from a new player perspective.
Maybe I don’t really understand you tho cus my English is kinda trashy
I really don’t get you man. But maybe the language is the barrier as you said.
T34 - (some version) and PZ4 F2 would be top tier vehicles of this campaign.
Are these thanks strong against all early ones? Yes sure, but are they impervious? No, they are not. T26 can destroy any PZ4 from the side, even the turret front is venerable. T34 is in better condition, but also, not impervious.
But I mean, I hope they will not mix new players at level 3 with someone at level 27.
If the MM is unable to realize that there are 10 players on Soviet side with T34 and there are no PZ4 F2 on German side, then this game is trash and should burn.
so, according to our keofoxy fox, we will probably see Maus tanks in berlin?
oh boy… i hope not.
like, i have been missing from a couple of weeks, so i was pretty much inactive. but watching the messages of what he said ( and you posted above ) it’s quite clear their intention.
and unfortunately, the first glim that we received was " war isn’t fair " which could be used for everything as a excuse. and so happened…
I also hope not. But if kinds continue screaming “We want IS3 in Berlin and our daddy is willing to pay for it”, then yeah, we will get it. And I will leave the game, same as War Thunder.
i’m a seasonal secretary employe for a donut company…
so…
i don’t think i’ll be able to buy darkflow and gaijin just to end the sufferting if you ask me.
jokes aside, this game is getting ruined for no reason whatsoever.
as said in another post, the game can do whatever it wants, but i ain’t gonna touch the multiplayer until some sort of CO-OP or PVE gamemode will be introduced.
i’m here for it’s realism and the settings. not stupid and pretty much questionable life-game decisions.
having fun in a game, not feel frustration for every match making me " tryhard " just to win and get a couple of XP to keep the magic goes on and obtain new shiner toys.
Each trooper, 9 in squad, can now be equipped with GE41 which in turn means 9 x 3 = 27 silver orders to get that.
If the gun is limited to 3 guys per squad they can just increase the cost of the gun to 3 x 13 = 29 and it’s almost the same. Decrease the chance of getting the gun from random deliveries and do the modification to the weapon parts and there you have it. Monetization secured, everyone would value the gun more and we would also somewhat have our historical satisfaction.
Not to mention the shajt that is happening now with FG42 …
Historical Accuracy has been a joke in War Thunder for years now. You can’t expect it in a game that has to constantly provide new content to chew on, and the same fate is awaiting Enlisted. Soon there will be premiums that don’t fit the game but will be explained by “But the was that one captured unit…” and etc. Currently we just have to hope for the content to be as close to history as possible but it wont last like this forever.
I just did on Pz3 E, you can pen the turret from front at 100m (have to know where to shoot), and sides easily. Few of these per tank would be realistic, for cases like this.
And as I said, MM should not mix teams that are only PZ2 vs T34
PZ Granate 40 can not pen the front of the T-34 with anything less than the short 5cm cannon. Pz 2 has less than 50mm pen at >100m so it would be very lucky to even get through the heck. Pz III b and E have 3.7cm cannon which has about 60-65 at less than 100m Front is out of question with that. Sides are also hard but doable if you aim well. Heck would be only reliable way. If you replace the 3.7cm variants with 5cm variants it would not be impervious if they also get the Pz Gr. 40 against the T34.
Look at my last post, updated it., tried with Pz3E.
But, at least to me, if you are under tiered it is harder for you in each and every game. One match you will be undertiered, in the other you will be top tier. This is how these games work.
I based it off of the real values of Armor/penetration i should have added that I am not sure about WT. Sure if they are going to do whatever gameplay wise and mess around with the values then it does not matter what they add where.
Then get back to Red Orcestra
