I’ve been having a lot of fun playing Moscow maps in high tier (except Quarry map, ,please, let’s get rid of that one while we’re at it). Beloe Lake, Birch Grove, Kamenka River, Povroskoe City and Fortified District are highlights for me. The combat is intense and surprisingly they play very well in high tier.
The whole “Battle of Moscow” thing is just an arbitrary name that made sense but it no longer matters. Don’t cling too much on it. Let’s just call it Eastern Front or something else, and having it span both low and high tier.
Tunisia is a mixed bag for me, but I defend “Moscow” in high tier. It should be renamed Eastern Front from now on.
I appreciate this a lot as a console player, as we’ve been excluded from trying out upcoming features in test servers in the past. It should be standard from now on, If possible.
yes the WT one actually sucks major ass, its a major part of why I dont play WT anymore, for a start, 99% of the time it doesnt work, and when it does, you have no where near enough control with it considering how the maps are.
A much better system is something like TF2, where I can pick the exact map and gamemode I want, if I want a fast queue I can pick anything, if I want something exact, I have to wait a minute.
Another thing is, it needs to be separated by nation, and ideally by BR. like my BR2 British lineup is perfect for Tunisia or Burma, however it would feel odd for it to be in the Ardennes.
Before this update, playing Soviets BR2 with T-28 I didn’t have to quit anything, now I have to quit Berlin.
Playing Germany BR4 with Panthers, I had to insta-quit only Stalingrad and Rzhev, now I have to insta-quit Stalingrad, Rzhev, Moscow and Tunisia as well.
In my recent test I had to quit 10/10 games because all of them were bullshit.
Thats not true, this update did change a lot for sure, I do think there is wiggle room on this topic mind you.
Like I love the Tunisia maps, and I think them being able to see a max of BR4 is cool, not that there is a US BR4 for them to face mind you.
Stalingrad should realistically be BR 2-3 to be uber historical, however it being BR1 too is fine, its certainly not immersion breaking by any stretch.
However these maps facing all BR’s will be a shame, all I see that is a lazy sign of defeat by the map devs saying they cant make enough maps to flesh out all BR’s.
I can live with minor historical inaccuracies, sure it gives me a funny feeling, but thats not the end of the world, but when the game is slowly pushing to the madness that was BFV, I want no part in that.
If its “WW2 Flavored” as you say, then why are all the weapons and vehicles so different?
Allow me to ellaborate:
Why is it that every faction has to recieve the ofenrohr? Why dont we just make all top launchers have the same penetration? Oh… whats that? Because it wouldnt be…HISTORICALLY ACCURATE?!
Why dont all SMGs have the same DPS and recoil patterns?
Why dont all light/medium/heavy tanks have the same armor values?
Etc, etc, etc.
This game wants to be historically accurate and it makes horribly ahistorical atrocities at the same time.
I just don’t really see a problem with unlocking all maps for all BRs, I mean BR 5 is a shitshow anyway, and anybody and they momma can have plenty of tools to deal with campers and such, it’s all about playing well, playing against organised squads will be impossible at any BR on any map
Tunisia premerge meta in reverse here i come.
