Devs not gone for authenticity, inclusion of front line female combatants should be proof enough. ---

I think some people just want the american hollywood ww2 that starts and ends on d-day. I love how this ww2 game feels more global then just americans coming to europe to save the day ---

None whatsoever, its better to try and forget its supposedly based loosely on WW2 ---

But I agree that the gameplay feels like modern war with everyone running around with fast shooting laser weapons + 3 x scope. There’s no real 1x1 fights, but only who see who first. I never thought i would say this, but I would also rather have a BF1 version of ww2. > > Did you play MOHAA? I was addicted to that game. What did you play Mohaa on ?

I dont think the majority of the community would have liked a more immersive/realistic ww2 experience. imagine how many people would be complaining if iron sights were forced on them? or semi-automatics? How many people would scream bloody murder if the weapons were faction specific? Know that i’d stand behind all those changes, but i also know in my heart that this playerbase just wouldnt agree with it. ---

> [@Crazymoooseman](#): > > 1. And I hate to say this, I didn’t think this would be an issue either, but allowing players to choose their gender/race also rips me out of it. If this were a game set in modern times I wouldn’t bat an eye at it. But when I’m playing as a german and I’m revived by a black woman, I just kind of say, “huh oh yea that’s right, this is what I’m playing.” Comment of the day. ---

> [@Crazymoooseman](#): > > 1. Non faction specific weapons. I didn’t think this would be a problem, and I commend them for sticking to it with the vehicles but spawning as a german with a bren, or lee enfield, etc just feels wrong, I don’t feel like I’m playing for one side or the other. And I don’t think people are too opposed to this either, it works well for many games based on that era. Faction-specific weapons wouldn’t work besides in a set gamemode for it in my opinion, coming from experience in RO2/RS. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not personally one who felt particularly annoyed about it but man were there plenty of players who’d switch to the German team given the immediate chance just because they wanted to use an MkB(42) or an MG34/42 rather than any of the Russian guns, and God forbid you wanted to play a Rising Storm campaign because most of the time it seemed like people would immediately quit if they found they’d loaded in as the Japanese and they just wanted to run and gun with a BAR or Garand. Heck, most of the time if you saw someone who was a “Hero” meaning they could spawn with guns of the other nation, you’d see them using German or American stuff (not so sure about the latter, I actually don’t remember seeing many Japanese heroes). ---

> [@munkt0r](#): > > Not sure, I wasn’t in WW2. Can somebody explain why this response even remotely makes sense? We have a lot of media that is actually from WWII. Like we even have raw footage from D-Day of all things. When people are talking about the WWII vibe they are talking about an aesthetic that matches actual historical documentation, photography, and film. Saying “I wasn’t physically present” is kind of irrelevant seeing as we have first hand footage from people who actually were. ---

D-day wasn’t the only thing in WW2. The locations are defintately WW2 accurate as are the weapons. Yes, fine the women soliders, and lack of swastikas etc takes away from it a bit, but they had to add women soliders etc for all teh diff types of players. this has a global feel, WW2 was very apparent in middle east, Norway etc. not just the beaches of france. im sure they will add americans/russians etc in the future. but for now, the immersion is there. seeing a tiger tank roll by with a STuka dropping a bomb in the air while i lay some fire down with a MG32..whats the problem ---

But that’s disingenuous to the argument itself. Clearly the argument is in favor of a game that matches the aesthetics of the raw footage. People like Saving Private Ryan and Band of Brothers because they took extra care to be as authentic to that footage and history as possible. We have raw footage from Africa as well, so again there is no reason to say to people that they have no idea what it was like when we can literally look at it in motion. ---
