Hello Enlisted devs,
I am aware that this might be a bit too early, but I still would like to suggest a campaign map that may hopefully be one day added into Enlisted.
I am a player from China, a country that fought against the Japanese in WWII. However, China is very under-represented nowadays about their role in the war. I hope this game can help show this part of history.
I would like to suggest that the Battle of West Hunan (also known as the Zhijiang Campaign) should be added as a Campaign. According to what I can find online, in this battle, Chinese Nationalists, along with many American pilots, fought the Japanese from the 9th of April to the 7th of June, 1945.
I believe that this should be a campaign due to its historical importance. Historically, the Japanese were trying to seize the Zhijiang Airfield, the center of the air forces of the ROC, and several railways in West Hunan, which would, in turn, help them seize Chongqing, the Wartime Capital of the ROC. The Chinese ultimately turned the tide against the Japanese, launching a wave of counterattacks across Southern China. It was the last major offensive by the Japanese during the second Sino-Japanese war within WWII.
If this is ever going to be added into the game, one side can be the Japanese and the other can be the ROC army.
Thank you very much for reading and please consider this as a possible future campaign to add into Enlisted.
Dont forget second sino war too when china fought japan
Yes, but the Battle of West Hunan is in itself a part of the later stages of the Second Sino-Japanese War
Pretty sure any chinese campaign would be YEARS down the road, as I dont see it being high priority with the west or russians who mainly play the game. sorry man.
The market for this is extremely small, so it will never happen.
I wouldnât be surprised if that changes down the line. After all, Warthunder went and had a China tech tree, no? Never is a long time. Things change. Itâs far more likely that, depending on how long the gameâs life goes, it wonât happen for a long, long time. After all, if the game is still played 10 years from now, who knows what state it will be in? Hereâs hoping it lasts that long
Thatâs because thereâs over a billion Chinese people. Theyâre the biggest market in any business by far.
Because of the tight regulations in China which pretty much forces businesses to portray historical enemies as âweak and insignificantâ, weâre not going to see the Sino-Japanese wars. Ever.
Weak and insignificant. Well. Warthunder manages to have people kill off chinese tanks all the time. That being said, I completely understand wanting to completely avoid the complication whatsoever. There is so much other content to do. After all, African theater anyone? Italy? Late war inside germany? The entire Pacific front including both American and Russian versus the Japanese?
There is a lot of other things to be able to focus on. Besides, this entire post is all semantics as of the moment anyways. Whose to say what awaits in the future? I mean. First finish what we got, you know? And then there is still the two campaigns currently locked out (as they are far from finished yet).
What are you talking about, he is literally talking about a battle of the second sino japanese war.
Its like saying âdont forget about world war 2 â to a post about a italian campaign
they should do this only because it would end up getting the game banned in china (to the benefit of the entire community) and increase the japanese playerbase
God Bless.
I donât know dude, the Chinese market is HUGE.
it is. However in exchange for access to their market they demand massive cultural and historical concessions.
their community is also terrible and full of really bad hackers and cheaters. (no offense OP)
Yeah, I remember I played LOTRO back in the early 2000s and Chinese gold farmers almost ruined that game.
Haha ma bad, sorry
