also forgot to mention that even with campaigns united in theaters, there doesnt need to be “oversimplification”. you just need to MM that can recognize equipment year/level you have on your squads and put you in appropriate campaign (well map from that campaign) and high/low equipment match.
Then Japan would simply vanish from late-game games.
Thats… a final solution.
explain to me how will jumbo end up on pacific if western front ends up united? not how japan will counter that.
also this is problem for any campaign. ffs in normandy stuarts, scotts and shermans are getting raped by tigers and panthers, but nobody is making a fuss about it.
Actually chi ri experimental can be balancing factor but im not sure will be added
North africa has nothing to do with western front. If it can be considered as some part of front it is mediterannean in general. Maybe you can add italian front all way from sicily to po valley offensive and operation dragoon in southern france.
Western front 1939-40 ,1944-45 had no effect or relation on progress in italy or north africa . Hell, Even the invasion of greece can be categorised with the north africa but absolutely not west.
The experinced us troops after torch and already experinced british troops from egypt ended up in sicily and mainland italy with same/ similar gear and arsenal.
ofcourse it has. who fought on both those fronts. it is like saying that eastern front doesnt make sense cause germany advanced in 3 directions; leningrad, stalingrad and moscow.
anyways for unification idea (at least for fronts idea) there must be only max 3 fronts. allies (western) vs axis (german), allies (SSSR) vs axis (german) and allies (western) vs axis (japanese). so in simplified terms western front, eastern front and pacific.
historical difference can be resolved with MM system that matches campaigns/maps with selected equipment (based on year and presence in particular campaign).
i already said that progression would be eased up by allowing us to pick the already unlocked weapon for free in another campaign, right now you’re free to unlock the same weapons over and over again; stalingrad, moscow and berlin is the prime example
people will definetly request more battles within each theatres of the europe (west front, south front, and east front, maybe even north front), and adding a million campaigns with each having to unlock the same equipment over and over again doesnt seem fitting for the majority of playerbase.
as said already the way to fix this is to allow us to get the already unlocked weapons be practically free in other campaigns when it comes to grinding for them.
and the battle timeline should also be considered, and within that time period is what type of weapons you will be able to have, and not have. obviously it doesnt make sense to have a 1944 IS-2 in battle of moscow which took place in 1942, so to solve this, such tanks and equipment will simply not be available for use
That is not overcomplication if that’s how things have been and people have been ok with it for over a year, and have been advertised when I was playing in the CBT, and for the people who played the CAT before me. The change with the Pacific, and what your proposing, is simplifying the already established structure of the game, and what everyone is used to and enjoys. People just don’t want to regrind the same gun over and over again and would like better MM (Of which I suggested above without changing the campaign system present)
And here I was right about the oversimplification.
This I feel will be better then combining all the campaigns. As there will people who will run out of progression and complain. Also, this could allow for a separate Italian progression and a separate UK progression, alongside some other countries like Romania. Merging all the campaigns will be impossible simply due to Premium squads, or you’ll have a hard time getting the company to risk it.
Also it’s 1941, not 1942. The 7 days into 1942 do not count compared to the entire months of fighting, that’s why things like the MkB are out of place.
like i said you didnt read topic that i put where this was discussed all before. while you see on 3 “campaigns” MM would actually deal with complicated parts.
Yeah right operation Barbarossa (1941 invasion of Russia) in Berlin.
Mount your T-26’s and Pz 38t’s and rush to Reichstag.
Doesn’t make any sense.
so if uniting fronts is considered over simplified, then suggest a better way of reducing the grind.
i didnt say put t26’s or pz 38t’s in berlin, i suggested the campaigns be united in such a way that we wont constantly unlock the same weaponry over and over again, it would have its own tweaking and balancing so we dont end up in this exact situation where equipment is totally out of place.
Well. Since someone came with the stupid idea to introduce WT BR MM, the Chi whatever is 5.0 and the Jumbo is 5.3 so…
If not being wasted on D-Day, both Stuart and Puma are more suitable for flanking and mopping down infantry without being a slow ass TNT magnet.
Dude, you looked at the reply I made to someone else, but not the literal reply I made to you.
who cares, give me a better alternative to my idea
Well, considering the reply is what you’re asking for, you should probably care if you’re asking now. Didn’t figure illiteracy was still an issue in the first world now.
Keep campaigns how they were, based on battles. Campaign progression is solely squads depicted on units that were actually there, allowing more than one nationality or army. Have weapons/vehicles/equipment separated from campaign progressions and allow it to be researched by nation. Each campaign will have checks based on equipment actually usable there so no weapons made past the end of the battle are present. Allow matchmaking to continue more than one match so no need to repeatedly queue. Allow the selection to play more than one campaign, and give bonuses for playing on a “Front/Theatre” selection of campaigns, which are a group of preselected campaigns.
that makes more sense, eliminates the reptitivity
thats basically what i implied. i dont expect developers do add the 1944 equipment in a 1942 campaign
the game’s playerbase is still too small for that, sadly
yeah i think that the harder campaigns should be rewarded more, such as berlin axis, or tunisia axis, or normandy allies, or pacific axis
Simply I think having the servers be like Custom Games would help. Like with Rising Storm
