Tunisia is the only campaign which doesn’t allow you to chance your soldiers uniform. It only allows you to spend one soldier customization token to randomise the selected soldiers face.
But Tunisia does have vehicle customization. Why only vehicles?
I think the main reason is that it is not finished. Art assets are not ready. .
well, if i have to guess the reason why,
it’s because:
A ( minor inconvienience ) they generally don’t have alot of customization for the desert.
even in the editor. so you would have ended up customizing the same units with already available uniforms from other squads,
B ( actual reason i believe )
this is the only campaign with british, italians, germans and americans.
meaning that, it might would have been chaotic to let players decide or recognize the soldier faction and make it wear that. therefore, get some sort of unistorical / unappealing band of mercenaries with different uniforms from different nations.
so i guess we’ll get more in the future with the merge.
I would guess british/italians are the true reason.
The B reason is not very valid i think. We got separate squads for germany, Italy, british and american squads. You get italian voice lines and italian soldiers when you use a italian squad. We don’t have a mixed german/italy squad. They can just separate Italian and German uniforms
in pacyfic its not seems to be problem for Devs
except, you don’t have british forces there.
and the selection of clothings it’s actually different from what you get in many basic squads.
( matter of fact, majority aren’t even included )
outside the camouflaged pants and headgear. which it’s an occurrence.
Tunisia dont have the costumization because of mixed squad, usually the costumization work like this
squad A
Squad B
Squad C (to H)
Use those clothes
squad I (to N)
Use this clothes
Ecc…
If you look your tanker,pilot and soldier have a different uniform pool
Now
In tunisia you dont need separate uniform pool only for squad but even for nationality and you have code that different nationality squad count as another faction, but, currently ita,uk are only US and ger reskinned with a costum VO (same discussion for girl squad costumization stalingrad)
So our dev simply avoided do this work and postponed it probably for the merge, because after the merge italian and commowealth get totally fused with ger and US and theyr squad can spawn in every US and ger map so they need new default uniform for match map outiside tunisia, and is probably here that a basic costumization come for them at least regarding default uniform
Tunisia has squads that are American, British, German, and Italian. In order to maintain accuracy they would need to have four different cosmetic inventory pools for the campaign which only apply to certain squads.
I think they’re just going to remove the British and Italian squads after the merge and then re-introduce them when they are inevitably added as their own factions.
I recently started playing Tunisia and the British special forces with their turbans and silent sten are very cool. But I was disappointed when I realized that they are premier squads OR event squads that are no longer available.
I would love to have at least that turban, but the customization features are poorer than the other campaigns, which again discouraged me.
