In order to ensure maps play and feel as they should, weapons should be sorted into theatres of war. STG-44s and MG-42s should not be on wake island, but Tommy Guns and M1A1 carbines can be in both theatres. Weapons were looted by the thousands, so no faction-specific weapons should be created. Agreed?
I would have prefered it if all weapons where faction locked, but I admit it would suck if we saw GIs with StGs storming Iwo Jima
Yeah, everybody playing the pacific theatre and forsake the current weapons+assignments.
Leveling up those new weapons that would only be for pacific maps. Empty servers for current modes.
Nah, I suspect you can choose any weapon in the pacific theatre. Just as my british soldier runs around with stg44 or stg1-5. Picked up from a fallen soldier, convieniantly having the appropriate ammunition also, allied ammo dumps supplying buckets full of axis ammo.
The americans will be equiped with japanese weapons, and japanese soldiers with thompson and m1 garand.
Btw, while perhaps handy to grab an enemy weapon when out of ammo, they were mostly picked for souvenir.
true, unless you where some resistance fighter or on the losing end of a battle, you probably stuck to the weapon that, you know, your logistics team actually supplies bullets for
He could have concievabley looted it though.Elephante33 said:
There are actually statistics, showing that armies actually looted thousands of enemy weapons to carry in addition to their default, if they deemed it superior.
i liked faction specific weapons. it installed some order in the chaos. made you feel like you are part of an army. it gives each faction a different feel.
“reality” is not a good argument for doing something in BF. The entire game is unrealistic in countless ways so it amounts to a bs argument to suddenly say something should be this or that because of “reality.”
I’ll keep using the Suomi and StG44 for both my Americans and Japanese, thank you.
Would be a nice option for Private Games.
For the main game, though? Heck no.
I dont care. I care more about the vehicles. No German or British vehicles in the Pacific theater.
I remember that bf1 Tsar dlc also hadn’t other vehicles. Only russians and german.
That was great
Would have liked weapons to be faction locked like the vehicles from the get go but that’s not going to happen.
Ah yeah, would be so awesome to have only 1 weapon choice as the Assault.
I wouldn’t mind if some servers were like that but the games would be so imbalanced
Not going to happen. You will get Seamus storming the beaches of Iwo with the US marines using his STG and you will get Kurt (or whatever his name is) manning an MG42 ready to try and stop him
I’ll have you know that seamus emigrated to America in 1942 and kurt’s half Japanese tho he may not look it. Don’t be so quick to jump to conclusions
I recommend authentic 3x scopes on the samurai sword and flamethrower.
And what about Hanna and Norman? Shes French and hes British.
Or they could have just made Bad Company: Vietnam or BF1943 remake. Separate expansion. Faction locked kits and weapons. Asymmetrical gameplay with pros and cons on both sides.
But nope, we’re just getting some island maps and some new soldier skins/weapons.
Magic. And Dice isn’t going to explain a thing.
That is not correct. BF1 used faction vehicles aircraft or transport on every map expect tanks and heavy bomber. Tanks almost exclusive existed on the western front during the war so lack of tanks in Tsar DLC. However British landship was used on some tsar maps when it was Russia v Russia which highlight usage during the Russian civil war.
I just wish they removed the ‘‘totally not holo sight’’ from the game, it just looks goofy on the weapons of people that have it. Aperture sights at least makes sense for the time, but you can expect me to believe people started ripping off the reflective sights from fighter planes to slap them on guns, let alone in that number
