(This is more of a question then a Suggestion) When do you think will we hear something if Tunesia? Like a trailer or Informations about weapons and etc.
we just started with berlin, i highly doubt we will able to see it anytime soon.
maybe in about 6/7 months or so ( but unlikely )
until than, if we don’t get updates, we can only hope about it
I just hope it has a ton of vehicles, APC’s as Rally points, etc… North Africa was hugely mechanized.
I can’t wait for Tunisia…
Tunisia campaign began 1942 it seems. I think there ought to be both No.4 and Mk.III Lee Enfields. I hope they get good voice actors this time around…
give me indian or especially gurkha regiments to play with!
Why so hyped? We will most likely get another Berlin.
In terms of business / release management, yes. In terms of gameplay, supposedly not. Berlin is 100% urban warfare, while Tunisia is supposed to feature a lot of open ground with little to no vegetation.
I’m sure people will love Tunisia with how everyone is complaining about airfield
Vehicle balance will be a huge aspect of this theater and there should be a lot of them. If they go 2 vehicles per side with PIV versus Jumbo and Air with unlimited quick reloads… it will not go over well.
Well, “open ground” doesn’t necessarily mean “flat”. Sure there will be plenty of hills (dunes?), rocks, and trenches.
Imagine a barren version of Normandy, with scorched terrain and small settlements but no woods.
I mean most people are complaining about the lack of cover and relatively flat ground (something very common in Tunisia) regardless of the vehicles.
They are complaining; because, that is not terrain that Infantry do very well in. It plays into vehicle strengths and they dominate in that type of open environment and vehicle imbalances are magnified.
North Africa will be much more like this than Airfield is. If they don’t play into vehicles in North Africa; I don’t see a point to playing it. Might as well just play Moscow or Berlin; otherwise, you’ll be playing a frustrating experience.
I want to see Armored Personnel Carriers in North Africa, mostly vehicles, and supporting infantry the dynamic and representing the different type of warfare in that theater. I want to see different gameplay… if not, then what’s the point?
I’m fairly certain planes and tanks will still be very prevalent in Tunisia. Just expect Grant, Matilda, stuarts vs Pz 3, stug etc… I highly doubt we’ll see more than one or two APCs. And of course planes will be there too. Its probably going to be large open maps with airfield levels of cover. I obviously could be wrong but highly doubt they would create Tunisia without tanks or planes since the majority of the playerbase use these vehicles on a match by match basis.
Just another CBT failure in terms of access (pay 50 bucks for squads you maybe dont even want and a access to a bugged campaign where you wont be able to grind for the next month) and content since we will only get some new tanks and planes but I doubt we will face a lot of new guns as long as they dont make “subfactions”.
On the topic of terrain: if I think back to the Forgotten Hope 2 mod for Battlefield 2 they had North Africa maps but they weren’t all just open terrain. They had ports and cities as well, and those maps were very cool. Also not a bad mod to look at if the devs need inspiration
Airfield if cool as.
Since most people attack in a north to south direction/straight line, I find if you setup a rally point in the wooded areas outside the airfield past the buildings on the border of the airfield, your team as they spawn in can easily kill the enemy from their flanks as the enemy tend to rush forwards towards the hangers and rarely look sideways towards the outskirts of map.
