Guess what, you are attacking prepared heavy fortifications from a beach. How do you expect that not being defender sided? US has many ways to seal with MGs, they just need to use their brains. In most situations it all about first point - if they gry through the Beach its almost guaranteed win

I see now people filling the first capture point with barbed wire and directly was impossible to enter.
throwed demolition charges, grenades or everything and was impossible to break the barbed wire.
simply a blocked game since the beginning. there was no possibility to assault the beach

I still think these folks are too used to the single player games, where the beach essentially storms itself.

That might be true. Its probably third or fourth post like this that I answer today. And all of them are coming from OBT players. In CBT this map was mostly praised after claustrophobic maps in Moscow

lol yep. But lately, I’ve seen some serious pounding on D-Day, GE side kinda figured out - you gotta pour MAXIMUUUM FIREPOWEEER into the beachhead lol its fun to see some massacres play out lol
I mean the hardest part is just the first Obj. Chuck some TNT place some rally points on the flanks and charge in. There are 3 entry points so it’s a lot to defend especially since the ladder in the back is where most players leave their AI reserves.

D Day map is mad fun and difficult as it was for Allies on 6th June. Use snipers to knock out enemy firing MGs from bunkers and/or fire at MGs to destroy them so they can’t be used anymore. Call artillery to cover advancing troops. This is one map requiring a team effort including tanks and those awful flying machines. You could also try praying…

It is tough, but tbh I find the village invasion harder. I rarely win attacking on that map, unless the attacking team severely outnumbers the defending team.
When you lose the beach, it’s essentially a one way American steamroll from then on. So that first cap must be held at all costs, if you want to win.
I haven’t made up my mind if beach landing map unbalanced or not. There are a ton of new players on and if there are enough on the US side, they wont be able to capture the first point.
You actually must have people placing rally points as well as decent armor laying down suppressing fire to make it work right.
If everyone is constantly running from the landing craft, you probably wont make it.
You can’t balance a game around new players, they will just have to learn, the way we had to learn when we first started.
That’s exactly my point.
I don’t even think its just new players ether though. People aren’t using the games mechanics fully a lot of the time. They wont use rallies and the hardly ever mark enemies, even if you ask them.

Yes, storming the beach could be difficult for newbies. Its best to spawn some tanks and snipers to kill MG nests. One should also get P-38 for ground attacks and aerial defense of army. When storming that bunker, its best to have flamethrower there. Arty strike can help too. After Germans barricade inside, they cant escape or get help from outside. But i see another problem here. When i played germans, they stacked 3 ammo boxes in, barricaded everything AND BUILD A FLAK INSIDE A BUNKER!!! like, wtf? Building flak guns in bunker shouldnt be allowed.
i understand what you mean by were used to singe player games, its just infuriating when i cant even set up anything to combat said mg and sniper nests, i love playing this game i just cant bare to play this map sometimes
thats what i mean, if the enemie sets up quickly then theres a low chance u can actually win as they can just spam you with flak guns etc.
its hard to communicate with your team too, as theres no way to vc with them (as far im aware, im probably wrong)
yeah i understand you cant balance it around new plays, but its not just newbies, ive seen alot of people complaining about attacking this map.
its still a great game though
you can bring your own sniper squad that you get at the beginning. It takes one shot to destroy a stationary machinegun.
i understand you should use snipers and stuff, except whenever i actually spawn in as a sniper im shot immediately and thats what annoys me so much
