Yeah wasn’t too hyped on Firestorm but the more I see it the better it looks.
I’ll definitely be giving it a try.
I’m just happy to see they have new factions and content planned for the base game, because that was one of my fears - that Firestorm would receive all the focus.
As long is there is something major each month I think that’s more than enough. I paid $30 for this game after all, and yet to pay for an expansion. So if the add new factions for free… that’s going to be more than worth it for me.
Meh, new Greece map in May and then, in July, Marita, which is set BEFORE Crete? What urban battle will it possibly be in 1941 Western/Southern theater? Hopefully not something set in bloody Greece!?
We’ll see what will come in fall with this “new theatre of war” thing.
Also, new Combined Arms missions, who asked for them I wonder?
" Outpost " - new mode.
Oh great more modes nobody wanted and despite that " Awakening the Giant ", no hard proof of any new faction. That title can mean anything, especially with their " Unknown battles " concept.
The roadmap is disappointing. The next map, which should have been released this month will come in 4-8 weeks. The whole of April is focused on Combined Arms, which is a lost month. June will bring a wildcard mode.
Then, maybe in July we will get one more map, and possibly another one in August, which seems to be a remake of an urban map, which could be good or bad. My bet is on Amiens, which is a poor choice, put likely the easiest to do. Until End of June, at least we are looking at the same old maps, with one new addition.
And we have nothing else to look forward to until fall 2019 and no detailed info on the stuff that accompanies the next chapter. What we have in the files are: 3 SMGs, 2 LMGs, 2 MMGs, a Shotgun and a BA.
I argued and argued how bad live service would be pre launch many peeps mocked me for it. It’s all panning out exactly as I said it would and everyone is changing their tunes now. It’s too late though.
