Some new suggestions

1. keep stalingrad’s engineer’s ability to use ar, or at least give this special character to a special engineer squad and give it to all players when they reach that level. ar is no match to 422 or avt they are just better at killing newbies and bots but they dont work well when fighting against fullpower-automatic guns.
2. instead of giving 1.5 xp bounes to winning side. give it to those who fight, or engage more in a game. This should make the living players on each side a little more balanced.
3. give back the rank/level display for enemies. Also, after the merger, show player what maps they will play in with their current squad and show how many people are playing/matching in each faction with each map

I will add if I though of more things

1. No, and this argument that certain guns are better is false, I get top 5 on scoreboards with my historically accurate squads full of K98s.
2. Yes, the “win bonus” only hurts the game by ensuring the children who can’t stand losing quit the match
3. Sure why not

In which place? if its in berlin or normandy i am pretty sure its some while ago when everyone is playing german

Every campaign. All my squads have historically accurate loadouts and I can 1-shot any cheeseboi with an AVT/STG/AARP with a bolt-action. This forum gets too hung up on gun stats

This forum gets too hung up on gun stats

Then maybe those are the majority

The forums of any game are objectively filled with the loudest minority

NO. Removing win bonus is just a really bad idea overall. I get that you guys want a bonus for doing your part, and I’m not opposed to that. HOWEVER, removing the incentive to actually WIN the game needs to remain. Otherwise people are just going to try to farm kills even harder than they currently do.

Why not have both? I’ve made suggestions like THIS>

Incentivizing doing more with a single squad (surviving for a period of time) with score/time mechanic

Numerous times now it has been brought up that the “meat grinder” type of play is not for everyone. Trying to survive for a longer amount of time should not be seen as a bad thing, actually quite the opposite. Surviving with a squad should generate a bonus, but under the requirement that they are still actively helping out their team in a noticeable way. Whether it is done by a close quarters fighter, or by longer range support (sniper, MG, or field gun support for example), if they are still he…

To help further boost the rewards of players doing their part to help their team obtain victory.

Having a win bonus helps to incentivize players to work together for the overall victory, rather than just their personal benefit.
So having both would just benefit you more overall.
