It is quite ironic how people are quitting and leaving the game due to the lack of choice, I was one of those who said that was a deal breaker for a lot of people, my voice was muffled in the pro merge wave of optimism, even HA and immersion were also reasons I had concerns.
TLDR Give players preferred map, happy to wait a bit longer to guarantee map/campaign. Fix customization, with fragmented squads all over, premiums who can’t be changed, my uniqueness has gone!
The feedback I have read on here, forums, Facebook even is people miss their choice, some people even want to use high tier in Moscow and miss STG / MKb in Moscow, or high tier in Tunisia.
All the devs need to do is add preferred map choice option in UI in order to get that map, I mean just the battle area, Moscow, Tunisia are not common, some people are fed up of KT on Stalingrad, so let them choose what battle / campaign.
As for myself, overall I was pretty adamant I was only going to play BA mod, but all these events and real life has made it tough to invest as much time. I have created l,m,h tier squads as well as I can, all customization I had seems broken as I had stray squad members all put in same squads, which I didn’t have before. To say the merge really didn’t sit well with me or some of my clan is understatement.
I have now got used to battles, I don’t like KT when BR 2, or Jumbo on Pacific, but this is happening more rarely now ( I find any server option reduces occurrence). In fact I am playing more Pacific for the new toys that we were given, but also because I know axis will only be in one place, which is what people want.
The dust has now settled, devs can throw APCs our way, more events, but what we really want is choice, fix or reduce the cost of customization now have to buy a lot more, so need more appearance orders and as already logged let us customize our premiums in non origin battles ie SAS squad, Moroccan squads.
