Sword Beach feedback

I did a similar post for new Omaha, now it’s time for Sword.

My first question is a question: why do Allies already start in the town, not even spawn on beach, that’s a shame as sword beach was iconic battle on the seafront.

As for map, I play as BR4 a lot and either side can hold points once you know the map and choke points, not very tank friendly in earlier stages for either.

As for overall feel new maps always welcomed and I really like this one, just wish first point could be more beach landing assault than straight in town.

Put feedback below :point_down:

I ragequit last match because of paratroopers dropped ontop of an unreachable bunkertop - which happened to be inside the capture zone. All the excessive visual cover made spotting and shooting paratroopers extremely difficult - which reminds me of how stupidly broken paras were when they first got introduced.

Not a criticism of the map design itself, just pure CQC maps are heavily favouring Paratroopers, because they can land much easier.

The maps themselves feel fair and quite fun actually.

I’d like to give a feedback, but since the update Gaijin makes me to play everything but the new maps…

I play join any, do not desert, but still can’t understand why on earth they make me to play steel mill, d-day north or omer and no single omaha or sword…

I feel the same way I have only played the new Omaha beach map one time since release and I still haven’t got to play sword beach … not sure what to do about it either

As WidowMakerUk73 mentioned add Omaha and Sword to preffered maps. However it’s a placebo imho. This system seems not to work properly. I still kept getting other normandy maps. So it pissed me off and I just started to desert. And of course play Allies or germans.

And about Sword map i got it only once - allies br5 invasion. We managed to advance only to the 3rd cap (barn), which is damn hard cause germans defend from the hill. But the first one is even harder and kinda schizophrenic - buildings in the circle and 1k windows, you don’t even know where from you die. Too bad there is no fight on the beach ( you just start there and its very short) as it was said in this topic.
Anyway map looks great. You have a feeling that you aleady have seen some stuff in game before, but it got refreshed so good that looks like brand new.

Play German BR3…I usually get these maps in defence.

Ya, maps are very cool…but need tweaking because the large objectives usually have something similiar to that bunker to exploit.
But the maps are definitely fun.
