If you desert a match, i think it would be funny if they show a short skippable cutscene of your squad getting killed by a firing squad for desertion.
I think there should be a short skippable victory cutscene too, don’t know how that would look.
There should be a short skippable entry scene for battle such as D-day, arriving on boats, or Germans preparing to attack and being caught off guard.
Animation wise, there should be death animation, if you get shot in the neck, it should show the artery bleeding or the soldier in pain. Same with all other shots. Ragdolls can still be implemented maybe make it an option, death animations or ragdolls.
Better death animations for sure! I wish they would bring back the old gore and the bullet wounds you would get if you got shot. The bullet wounds seem to work in the editor but not in the base game.
Victory cutscene could be a pre-rendered video playing at the top or in the background of the match summary. Similarly, an intro cutscene could play during loading screen and while awaiting players. The point is to be as unintrusive as possible.
As to what should be on them, ideally it would involve the map you play on, example: Soviets planting a flag on Reich Chancellory or US unloading on Omaha after battle on respective maps.
Intros could be done in OG Men of War style where it would show the location of the battlefield and then switch to local map presenting cap zones, terrain and suggested attack avenues.
