The Normandie-Niemen Fighter Regiment

Sorry I’m trying to get the game improved after 4 YEARS OF COMPLAINING THAT WENT IGNORED

All thanks to a couple of dudes that are too ignorant to care or do hoops of mental gymnastics to justify having twice the TTK because of a cosmetic because they are afraid to let go of their crutches

Is your ego healing after hearing the devs have pampered you in your delusion after being clowned on by everyone?

Such a dishonest take.

Gas masks have no hidden modifiers attatched to them, breastplates do. Cosmetics should be cosmetics.

dude that’s what i mean by obsessing over it lmao go one day without thinking of it… literally rent free.

why is it so unreasonable to ask to add a movement penalty to wearing a gigantic metal breastplate lol. The less superhuman the soldiers are, the better

In reality, nobody should have to be pushing the body armor agenda now because it should have been addressed a couple years ago. :joy: Either every faction has it or no faction should have it, that is just common sense. :smiling_face:

No, that’s dull 1:1 approach to balance. On contrary, other factions should have their own personal gimmicks.

It’s funny how nobody complains about Japanese rally points being significantly smaller, them having access to unlimited number of swords and very potent lunge mine (if used correctly).

Body armor issue is probably the most overrated made up problem the community has ever came up with.

Probably because everyone has rallies.
You also do not see people complaining (much) that Soviet AA reloads faster due to loader despite other AA guns also having spots for loaders.

Swords only affect players while equipped and swords are not excatly great for ranged encounters. But sure, add swords for other factions I guess.

Which were bugged for half of their existence and TNT is still better all things considered.

Democracy sucks. Nerf MG34.

We also have body armor on the motorcycle squad :smiley:
So yeah Japan has so many secret advantages xD

It’s 3 soldiers on an overpriced premium squad that basically nobody buys. We could distribute it to everybody for free and then shift the balance problem over to the USA and let them deal with body armor instead /s

Well this explains why no one complains since the Japanese advantages are so insignificant that no one really cares. :smiley:

Again, I think its very ridiculous to wear such a heavy item and move completely unimpeded. It’s not super critical issue that makes the game unplayable. It’s a poor balance choice that should be reconsidered by the developers.

There’s no reason at all to NOT use body armor. It is objectively the correct choice to equip it because it increases survivability at no downside.

I believe that there should never be a clear-cut correct choice for what to use in a game. There should be alternatives, with pro’s and con’s, that make designing your loadout a thoughtful and more involved process, not having two choices with one labeled RIGHT and one labeled WRONG

It’s all been said here before but adding some weight to it all won’t hurt… The body armor discussion has been happening for years and it’s the perfect time to address and finally fix it now. I can’t fathom how the developers wouldn’t be able to perceive that fact, seize the chance and solve it once and for all, especially since Japan is very likely to be negatively affected by having to fight against body armor. It’s painting the devs in a really bad light, especially since they’re aware of the problem but are willing to leave it to fester and plague another nation.

Considering this had been an on-going topic for years now, its completely up to the devs to give us the “go” for when it actually makes finally sense to discuss this properly.

that is easy

Then remove it if it doesn’t matter, the only reason why it keeps coming up is because it is obviously an unfair advantage.

wrong, you can only have 3 APCs on a map at any given time.

You can spawn the squad without the apc since its infantry squad.

Well, I think there should be “faction specific” squad types - a special soviet exclusive combat pioneer squad would make alot of sense historically speaking, cuz thats were those armors were actually used.

Pioneers with armor + SMGs

Germany could get Panzergrenadiers, AT soldiers with SMGs.

Brits could get commandos - Guerillas with AT launchers

Or what ever
