no point in addressing your first few points if you dont understand what is fictional in “ww2 historical” game that has weapons that werent used in ww2 or in particular campaigns. maybe we should add japanese squads to tunisia, stalingrad and normandy cause that also wouldnt break “historical immersion” cause japanese existed in ww2.
it was to stop veterans to seal club newbies with end game weapons. so instead of veterans seal clubbing with skill and weapons, they can now only seal club with skill.
also if you were actually reading discussions about merge in past year you would know that absolutely nobody expected that roflstomps will be fixed. for that to happen you would need skill based MM which is bad for casual game.
certainly you are the smartest here, so go figure out how to balance ww2 game without making it ahistorical.
nah… i dont have delusions about this game. i wanted easy ww2 themed arcadey shooter where i would need to sweat against kids with higher skill than me and i got what i wanted. if i wanted historically accurate or “immersive” ww2 shooter i wouldnt came even close to enlisted.
