Reworking old locations

[darkkismeth]

Careful, hot take here: How about making HISTORICAL ACCURATE MAPS FROM REAL WW2 BATTLES AND LOCATIONS?

Some maps can be fictional creative, i don’t mind that, but atleast take the historical accuracy serious.

@Ron_McKracker

Asking a favor, can you make an Iwo Jima map?
Would be awesome if you could.

i wanted to.

but the tools available for terraforming are awefull

@ErikaKalkbrenner

Would it be possible to do Peleliu instead?

[ZebulonBVance]

hardly any of the maps are historically accurate except Stalingrad and Berlin

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

haven’t thought about that.

but we can recreate ( ish ) rising storm version of pelieu.

( i think. outside the river, river tools are not accessible to us modders either… )

One thing that I’m not on board with is removal of AT obsctacles on the beaches. Not only were they providing some cover for the attacking side, but they added to the atmosphere.

@Texan_Heat

The game isn’t supposed to be “easier and safer” it’s supposed to be realistic.

realistic like jumbo and regular shermans on beach of normandy? ffs at least they should be dd tanks. realistic with german tank divisions on hills overlooking landing? although they had loads of AT guns and artillery. with battleship support shelling german positions? with very limited aviation support from germans? are you sure you want “realistic” gameplay?

game shouldnt be realistic (unless pve). it should be balanced.

@Sgt_Pepper70

I mean, isn’t that how it happened in real life? Normandy is known for the bloody welcome that the Germans gave the Allied troops to Europe, the Normandy of Hell Let Loose is wild and nobody cries about it, they can’t get enough of the merge and they want to ruin the immersion even more, they want everything easy as If it were a game for 5-year-olds, ruining historically correct maps because of some crying is sacrilege.

sure if you want historical accuracy then you should want naval artillery that can destroy bunkers, no german tanks, very limited german CAS and allied to axis player ratio being 3:1

The heat map and certain comments really make me think about the “Just flank, bro” comment.

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

@CaptainSebekel

“Just flank, bro”

as long it works

[CaptainSebekel]

Maybe because flanking is for meta and ahistorical whales?

[robihr]

problem with flanking is that you still need “main” frontal spawn.

I wonder if the HEAT map is including bots.

Its funny to see nearly no purple in places I like to go lol

But removing steel hedgehogs will not improve balance, as they serve as some small protection for tanks and infantry

When I play tanks in this map, I always found it ferking annoy…geting funneled into pretty much one alley. (that fills up with the wrecks of new tankers)

It looks naked now, more available angles…Just have to see how it goes.

[robihr]

well idk how it will affect overall balance, my comment is more on those who want “HA” and “realism”…

[Derekcreeperer]

Noooooo, I still want to Sherman the bunker

[_31420124242011]

No I’m talking about the sandbag MGs up the hills

[Derekcreeperer]

I shell them too

Do you think you could get the mountain ranges while doing the RS1 Peleliu airfield?

Based and grey zone pilled
