The Americans need an overhaul big time lol. The uniforms look ridiculous. Yellow leather gloves in combat ? Come on now. Plus the uniforms are for the most part very inaccurate and lazy looking.
It’s still a beta, lads. Nothing is final until we leave it. They changed gun models in the past, I’m sure they’ll change these as well. They’ve got a lot of ground to cover with a small team.
“this button was 1mm off… Game ruined”
It has nothing to do with a button being off. The uniforms are years newer than anything else in the battle of moscow and are missing “vital” rank indicators / other insignias that would be present 100% of the time on historical uniforms.
Also the equipment (ammo pouches, pistol holster, etc) doesn’t match equipped stuff.
That is not an excuse. They could have realised they overscoped and could have gone for 1-2 campaigns only. But they decided to go ham with 4 campaigns planned atm so they have the responsibility to complete those.

You do you.
I’ll just consider myself fortunate that I don’t have severe enough OCD to lose sleep over the tiniest details. I see a German soldier, it looks like a German – I see a Soviet soldier, it looks like a Soviet.
i would agree, and i do agree for half… but when they say:
eh… i don’t know about that. uniforms are a bit off in my opinion.
through 4 stages, berlins and normandy have the same exact uniforms.
re-used assets and some of these, not even closely accurate.
they do have some sort of tabs and stuff, but it’s to the bare minimal.
i just saw some wehrmacht divisions with SS uniforms ( which it’s not accurate since the pea dot camo was only assigned to ss divisions and stuff ) and they ( that division ) were also using hats insthead of helmets.
they didn’t normally used hats if not for certain divisions ( such as the ost ) for it’s idenficiation. but during those battles at those period of history, germany and it’s divisions/regiment and stuff weren’t short on equipment.
or on the ally side, an entire divisions of NKVD wearing officers clothings, and on the american side, an infantry regiment wearing paratroopers uniforms.
so eh… that’s a bit of a yikes for me.
but on the other hand, it’s too earlier to say. since we are preatty much still in a beta.
i’m sure and confident in one of the next huge updates they will change uniforms. just like war thunder after a couple of years of it’s realease. meaning that those temporary assets will be changed later on.

That’s a problem with their marketing, so I would find an alternate choice of words, but nonetheless that will not stop any sane calm rational person from playing a video game.
Once marketed as such, one can not simply “find an alternatice choice of words” as there is a risk of lawsuits.
Just because you don’t mind does not mean that others should not be allowed to mind.
i explained my self bad.
i don’t mind ss units. but i understand it’s legal problem with it ( depise their trailer at moscow with a swastika… but eh… ) so i’m fine with avoiding them.
but what’s the point of including uniforms that were only assigned for them as another branch?
or just like i said on the ally side, an entire squad made of officers? or paratroopers gears on normal infantry? ( and most of the time, “naked” them selves with just a few poches or strips )
That’s perfectly fine pal. If you want authenticity, Post Scriptum is right around the corner for you.
No, literally.
They marketed the game as realistic.
People can file a lawsuit if the game goes too far towards the arcade side and have a good chance of winning what effectively would be a fraud cause. Idk what they’d benefit from it, except for forced mass refunds which could very well kill the game due to taking away all available funding.
Besides, realistic is not the same thing as a milsim. But I guess you haven’t played enough of either to know the difference.

“realistic is not the same thing as milsim”
the game was supposed to be asymetrical with more attackers vs less defenders more tanks vs less tanks with anti tanks this words were exactly marketed in thier faq 4 years back after the cbt began they threw away that page and right now focus on normal capture the point games like any other games

Neat. Hopefully they can do something interesting with conquest, it feels way too small.
Invasion is my preferred mode right now.
This is how large the maps are in total. They just didn’t unlock all of it for the different game modes yet. This is obviously the moscow campaign map, and you can make out every single one of the smaller skirmish and conquest maps on it. The monastery and most of the Invasion maps are in the center for example, while the surrounding villages host the conquest maps.
Once the game releases, all of that will be the playing field. And that’s by far large enough.

We do not know if we ever get the full map as a playable area, or even bigger maps than we have now. We all hope for it, but there was no 100% confirmation.
All locations are on the same map mostly for planes and other technical issues. It was probalby easier to make one giant map and cut it for different smaller zones than creating said giant area for every map we have in the game.
Excuse me who said that the whole map will be utilised …if whole map is utilised you need 30 vs 30 players atleast not including the bots!
The original Plan was to have up to 100 players per map. And this looks just fine for a 50v50
I doubt the game would ever be able to support that with the ammount of players online at odd hours.
Need 2min to find a 10v10. Don’t feel like waiting 15+ for a 50v50.
Just saying what I found. I don’t think that’s too realistic either, or even feasible as that would mean up to 700 agents on any given map at once. It used to be their ambition however (New WW2 shooter promises 100-player battles that are not "sports-like" | PC Gamer, and I sincerely hope they’ll try and commit to it. It would be epic.
