The Melting Steel of Normandy

I would appreciate more open maps, but infantry players will whine and moan that theres cover, planes and tanks are shredding them, in urban maps like this those same tanks and planes are gonna whine they cant get kills, its very hard to get a middle ground, heres something else every one is forgetting, Enlisted is primarily a infantry focused game, planes and tanks are meant to support, not be the dominant focus. this map seems to have a decent balance of open and closed areas. But hey, if you guys want to be those assholes who love to sit in the back with a tank where your nice safe and warm with your campfire, or sit in plane the whole game, doing bomb runs every where but obj so you can rack up 50 kills being useless, play other campaigns. I myself am a tank main, but im not one of those guys who sits in the back, i push the point, I support my infantry, even if it means risking getting tntd or getting a rocket in the side, if me dying in a tight alley in my tank means my team can take the point, ill die. St. Lo outskirts isnt any different, neither is factory. If you dont like the map, dont play it, so quit whining and actually give something worthwhile like potential strats, advice to other players, or ideas. Dont jsut sit there and whine you dont like the map.

The map quality of Enlisted is so impressive that it can overwhelm other major games. Just look at the Berlin city or the Tractor Factory in Stalingrad, they are amazing. I’m looking forward to it again.

I agree in sense that they look awesome.
I disagree in sense that they play great. Imo they are too cramped (aka small playable area). Though some like it.

Fully agreed.

maps and weapon models overall are top notch.

The last map to be added to Normandy was the farm map, and that one is open as all hell, so I don’t get why people are now complaining about the devs adding a new CQC map. Furthermore, Normandy has it’s fair share of open maps as well (The aforementioned farm map, Airfield and D-day), as well as maps that mix both CQC and open areas (Le Bre and Ruins of Vaux). It’s not like the addition of this one map invalidates how some people like to play, it just means one map where you have to play another way, which is already the case for Normandy regardless of how you like to play.

There was no Jungle combat on Okinawa, and really no urban combat either it was just a Luner landscape, since the Americans bombed it so completely that there were no trees or buildings left standing.

The Japanese were mostly just dug into a series of defensive lines with interlocking fields of fire from bunkers.

Yup, this triggered in my head the moment I saw the premium para troopers release vids.

Instantly flashed back to Fallshcirmjager Dropping in factory.

Enlisted doesn’t disappoint (not me at least). Making many additions that please me. Paratroopers were way up there on my wish list…

So this is the same map we saw in the paratrooper demo videos – very lovely! It will be a great addition if it’s anything like the Tractor plant map, which I love. Thank you, devs!

That’s the closest thing I found too. except maybe the Renault Manufacturing plant near Le mans (too built up area)…

But Colombelles fits with the Normandy theme, would have expected Caen to be signposted before Le Mans

Judging by the preview on the map, “no” obstacles for tanks, planes when not shot down by laser defense, so bombs harmlessly end up on the roof of the bulletproof factory. All that’s left is for the pesky snipers to bend the barrels, fog the optics, and we’re left with plain CS.

Map looks great. But it has no normandy vibe. Also it not big fun to play on it. It’s similar to pacific and african map. A lot of stuff on it makes game very chaotic.

Why did this get flagged? Is it cause it “off topic” even tho someone from before ask it and didn’t get flag? That a double standard I think
