SITREP №2 - The Hype Awakens

Eeee, that armor is similar to a German tank, so it’s easier to visualize.

Do love a bit of a hunt, based on the guard tower there, it heavily implies a border region, so Karelia is my guess, however Manchuria is still on the table technically, if only by hopeium. Trees seem to favour a more western region imo.

Like the terrain is near identical to Karelia imo.

You should have been here just a half a year ago :rofl:
However yes, the recent events and the communication from the devs does uplift overall perception that the game won’t be abandoned after all.

Poland maybe?

Defo not Manchuria and not Italy. The houses are clearly “germanic”. So it’s some kind of extension for the late eastern front. Notice they say “new frontline”, “not a battlefield”.

Could be Battle of Breslau 1945 :crossed_fingers::heart_eyes:

Hey, isn’t the new map supposed to depict the Battle of Kharkov?

Because if it’s Kursk, I’m not really thrilled, unlike you.

Sorry, if it’s still on the German side, I won’t be very excited.

Japan deserves a new map! In the meantime, I refuse to believe it.

Wake me up when it’s finished! :grin::+1:

Kursk???

This is 99% extension to Battle of Berlin.

Based on assumption that this is Goethe Tower near Frankfurt at Main.

The actual goetheturm is consturcted diffrently.
The most obvious this is how the beams actually are placed.
They look nothing alike even if you ignore the missing staircase.

True, but there is not enough images from when it still stood, up to 2017 and then. So, yeah still guessing.

The AI doesn’t seem to spit out anything more meaningful, and I cannot find any archive photos either.

At least the flora is similar.

Another thing is that the in game tower stands on a small mound. While the modern Goethe Tower stood on flat plain.

So, yeah I posted mainly to get you guys help me find this tower.

Enlisted definitely used either real picture or they stylized it for in game asset.

Edit:

Yeah, so as I was already suspecting. The modern tower in the modern picture is actually rebuild from 2020.

So, since google doesn’t seem to store the original 1931 version, I’m not sure what to do…

GOD DAMMIT

I hate berlin.

Wait, I thought they said it was a new campaign

Hold my keyboard :rofl: Happy to see not only I feel that way…

Weapon balancing needs to stop, overall the most updates this game has gotten in the last year has been consistant tweaks to weapons and br changes, id prefer the time and effort put into this be spent elsewhere, yes some balancing is needed, but not every other week/month.

Preach Sire!

Cannot be berlin. They said it was something new

Doesn’t mean it won’t be like the Berlin maps.

Manchuria or Italy

Both had events with pre-selected teams that could be used as a test to see the balance.

Manchuria (all BRs)

Italy (low BR)

I did notice while looking to identify to the tower, it looked near identical to some firewatch towers in the US.

Slovakia :thinking:
