Quite sure this game is the leading game in that category, far exceeding cod with its LQBTBBQLMFABBC characters.
This COULD be a great way to help with match making AND streamline the way the entire mainscreen interface and weapons exchange between different campaigns (that is extremely costly and inconvenient) functions. This idea has big potential imo.
HOWEVER, (and im not trying to be negative here, just stating facts) they cant even repair long standing bug issues and even keep up with the new ones they create by modifying existing game play. SO FOR NOW THIS IS A EXTREMELY BAD IDEA.
Until they can repair ALL EXISTING BUGS and KEEP BUG REPAIR UNDER CONTROL they SHOULDNT MODIFY ANYTHING PERIOD.
They need to be more in CONTROL of game play mechanics BEFORE revamping ANYTHING IMO

I was thinking about that and yes western / eastern front would be great (but Berlin is against Russian so : eastern). They could do some maps like operation market garden and battle of the bulge, merge with Normandy without a new campaign.

I think any form of merging of campaigns is a bad idea considering we have weapons and vehicles that only appeared on a certain time and year. Sure there’s Mkb and Panzer IV F2 messing up Moscow but that is another issue that merging will not fix.
Merging Normandy with Berlin is an absolute No No for me considering those are different fronts.
Besides there are problems like Summer and Winter uniforms which only Red Orchestra 2 was able to have two separate sets of uniforms for both seasons besides certain uniforms only appeared on certain periods like 1941 Red Army is very different to 1945 in terms of uniforms.

why?
Yeah, I mean merge “like sorting under one umbrella”.
My initial thought was to find a way to remove MKB and PanzerIV from Moscow.
By gathering Moscow and Stalingrad we could maybe get “tickets” or gold when removing those things from 1941-42 Eastern front. The weapon and vehicle could still be usable by a easy transfer to Stalingrad.
My idea with connecting Normandy and Berlin is the problem with Axis. I named it first Late War. But ideal would ofc to put Battle of Berlin in the right front (Eastern) with Moscow and Stalingrad.

Yeah you right, changed some titles!
Will be harder to add Battle of France tho.
I’m not a fan of merging the campaigns into fronts in general but merging Normandy and Berlin is a big hard stop No No for me given that those are Western and Eastern Front respectively they should always be separated

Tiger 2 vs. Stuart is new level of absurdity.
Moscow vs. SG I don’t care.
Yes, absurd. But not gonna happen.
Still separated.
Sry for not being clear. I didn’t mean we should mix the campaigns in that way.
Well. I think both will come im Bulge anyway. Either that or an M24 which isn’t that much better.
I really like your post, but i have to say, i do not agree with the idea…

First off nice UI design.
I like the fact that you can queue for multiple factions in both campaigns. But I am a little confused, you have combined campaigns but then reseparated them again? You can play “late war” but there are still 2 queues for Normandy and Berlin. I thought the main draw of combining campaigns was the queues merge into 1 so there are more players in that queue. Wouldn’t it just be simpler to allow players to queue for more than one campaign in the current campaign system (moscow, tunisia, etc.)?

Thanks!
Personally, I wouldn’t mind that. Rather the opposite.
But I don’t think the majority would like it that way. Why I think it is better to give incentives for multiple queuing.
I didn’t have time to show a design of the multi-campaign queuing possibility. That would be the best!

yeah, a pretty unthoughtful idea.
Was hoping to trigger some constructive discussion on how to solve the current problem with the campaign layout

I would love a campaign multi-queue feature, I have taken a few attempts at designing what it might look like. If you ever find the time to make another design feel free to use my design as inspiration.

Very nice!
Exactly what i have in mind.
Thanks
I see France 1940, but thats all I want.
I do think these are interesting as events alone, like the Modern Day Event and the Battle for the Moon events. Of which they said they wouldn’t add to Custom Games for whatever reason.
