- Japan is always defending, this is an early war Pacific campaign and for some reason Japan is on the defensive when the entire point of Japan entering the war was suprise attacks on all Pacific islands simultaneously.
- Bots in this campaign have greater range, accuracy and reaction speed than every other campaign, combined with the foliage and buildings that may aswell not exist for the purposes of not being instantly killed and you just get instantly sniped the second there isn’t a solid rock between you.
- To a lesser extent the weapons make absolutely no sense, the S1 100 is by far better than they type 100 as 2 bullets can actually land in the same postcode with the S1 unlike the frankly ridiculous recoil on the type 100, also the AA vehicles are oddly mismatched, the ta se should have way more penetration than the m13 yet it doesn’t, it’s obvious what it should be like when you use the type 97 AT rifle which also just has a PTRS model and sounds.
- Why do the Americans get banzai charges, that’s exactly counter to the tactics and operation of the US army and marines.
- Cap points are just way too big and cluttered, you can hide entire squads on points and still not be able to hit them if you dropped airstrikes.
- Tickets are completely wrong, it takes almost nothing off the side losing units and yet they get to capture super fast, especially the Americans that also seem to get about 300 points back for each objective.

what? currently we are fighting on Guadalcanal which is 1943
The two worst aspects are
The japanese tanks get shred by the twin 0.50 cal us ? but you with 20mm struggle to destroy the M13 …
The very very very bad idea of bomber wave who just obliterate everything on earth stupidly OP while there are so few cover on the maps …
The devs obviously dont test their campaign before release; its an alpha test of a campaign on a beta game
1942 historian master
BRI’ISH
ended in 1943, we also have 1944 weapons like m3 grease gun and the lunge mine so yes the japanese should be defending most of the time rn though this should change when we get early indonesia and phillipines
Yeah but I’m not looking to defend 9/10 games i want to push, i went through 13 games before i got an attack, where the Americans proceeded to obliterate us on the first point because of a mixture of shit attacking weapons and we were essentially attacking the hangar from airfield in Normandy except without any of the cover the Americans get when they attack that building
Yup, this is the best way to say “go play allies”.
There was match where they cap the second point with little over 600 point and they where rewarded with 400 points… so 1000 again… And the best thing, after that we got an attack, second point, only 200… really?
And the cap speed is insane even when you have people on the point they just need like 2 to 4 second to have like 25% of the point and 1 or 2 guys more than you inside the point… this must be a bug or something…
I also found that very odd on the .50 cal, 20mm and even the 37mm. The penetration factors are off.
Bomber wave in pacific on Guadalcanal… Normandy is more deserving. Remove it.
yeah, M13 so powerfully rn as it could do all the works, basically makes every tank upgrade useless, especially japs one cus only very first tank could withstand 0.50 cal from front.
not to mention way too quick capture time for us, rn balance is way off.
You know that Guadacanal was a Allied Invasion?
Sure… I guess…
Its not new that some early guns are better than the and late gear.
I had no isses with the Jap AA and the only things Ive heard about the M13 is that its hitboxes are bugged. Otherwise M13 is best wreck ingame. Havnt seen so many wrecked tanks in one line since D-Day Stuart madness.
Its not even banzai charge according to devs. Its berserker “mode” or sth. like this and it was never said it was limited to Japan.
Its basically bayonet charge from BFV/1 in bad.
Why is this bad? Still better than those tiny spots which can be cleared by one single HE shell or arty strike or the awful brigde in Berlin with no cover for the Germans and ez mode for arty.
Sucks but I guess you play on US servers because on Europoor servers, Japs are constantly winning all the time despite US bugs.
The ta se just does straight up no damage to the m13 anywhere when the type 97 AT rifle deletes it from across the map
The literal only case of me ever wanting older gear over newer gear is maybe the m1a1 Thompson over the m1 or the mg42 over big mag mg34 and those were just preference the type 100 is literally a straight downgrade as you can’t even send 2 bullets to the same target it bounces that much
Caps being huge combined with the bots is just awful it’s literally asking to get beamed through the foliage because you can’t see through it but bots can
And I’m playing on Europe, japan is getting their ass beat
