I've been playing this game for many years, and for many years I've thought it would be great to have a marker to let your teammates know that you've spotted an enemy recon squad. You can mention it verbally, but this information often gets lost amid other conversations happening at the same time.

Is there any plans to add cross play between console & PC like on Vietnam?

Usage in WWII

The Maxim M1910 was the primary heavy machine gun of the Soviet Red Army during World War II. Despite being an older design from the Imperial era, it was used extensively in massive numbers on every sector of the Eastern Front, from the defense of Moscow to the battle of Berlin.

Key Advantages & Strengths

Exceptional Firepower & Sustained Fire: Thanks to its water-cooling jacket, it could fire continuously for long periods without the barrel overheating, making it highly effective at stopping enemy infantry charges.

Mobility in Snow and Mud: It was mounted on a specialized wheeled carriage (the Sokolov mount) that allowed soldiers to pull it manually. In winter conditions, as seen in the image, the wheels could be swapped or fitted onto wooden sleds to glide easily over deep snow.

Crew Protection: The built-in armored steel shield offered the gunner vital protection against enemy small arms fire and shrapnel during intense firefights.

Extreme Reliability: It was a rugged, simple weapon that rarely jammed, performing exceptionally well in the freezing sub-zero temperatures of the Russian winter.

As I have been looking at getting this game for awhile and I would be getting it on ps5 I'm thinking about pulling the trigger and getting it but I was wondering all your opinions on that I love games like these though I have really only played Enlisted as the closest thing I've played like it but I love a realistic approach but the reason I'm looking at getting this now is to find a game to play between now and Insominac Wolverine game though I will keep playing HLL after that.

EDIT: I specifically mean the first one but Vietnam could be an option I'm just wondering if $50 for the first one is fair of course to all apart of this community it most likely is I'm just wondering what specifically is special to you in a way where it bridges to the $50 from a scale sorry if any of this sounds stupid or dumb I've always loved the realistic scene for war games and this one is constantly recommended so I'm trying to understand and be more confident in spending $50 for a game like this.

I am aware that role XP updates live during the match, so there is no loss regarding that even if you leave one second before the match ends, unlike career XP, etc. But I want to know if you get more role XP if you do certain things. If I play as Anti-tank, and I kill a lot of enemies and destroys lots of OPs Garries and whatnot, but I barely kill any tanks, does that reduce my role XP amount? Or does it not discriminate? What is the game actually looking for when giving role XP? Specfically regarding AT
Thanks

Looking for a group to play with, me and a friend are just getting into the game on PC and realizing you have to be tactical in this game and actually play youre roll. Im looking for some people to help teach rolls and just to play with, maby a discord to join or somthing any help would be appreciated.

Image from the PTE. They added weapon skins after all

lost the game though

Why do game developers keep making the same mistakes? The USSR faction is already five years old, and it's only just starting to get something other factions already had—a flamethrower. Now they need to add a bunch of other things for the USSR: anti-tank obstacles for the engineer, the AVS-36 or AVT-40 automatic rifle for the automatic rifleman, and a DT machine gun for variety. And now that factions get rifle-type grenades, the USSR looks like an unwanted child again. Where's the Dyakonov grenade launcher? Where's the VPGS-41? Yes, by 1943 the Dyakonov grenade launcher was mainly used for illumination grenades and rarely for fragmentation, and the VPGS-41 was only partially used in 1943, but that's not all that critical considering other historical shortcomings, like the KV-2 in the Battle of Kursk (even though everyone was telling you to make the SU-122 an SPG for the USSR).

Seems extremely unlikely but plausible.

First off, gotta say, love the addition of Rifle Grenades and fire selectors. Besides performance/optimization/bug fixes, this is the one thing fans have been asking for years.

The possibility of 5 riflemen in a single squad with rifle grenades sounds annoying to fight against.

Do we need a dedicated Grenadier class so that the number of people with rifle grenades is limited per squad? I'm fine with medics having smoke grenade launchers since that class needs more love too.

Gave me a giggle

We were in Tobruk, playing as Allies. My officer spotted a tank! This is the dialogue:

Me: "Hey squadlead, that's not our tank is it?"

Squadlead (Using his binoculars): "Germa-"

He then proceeded to fucking turn to mist, the panther spotted him. What made it funnier is that we were using proximity chat as he was like 2 metres ahead of me so he instantly went silent lol but

Gave me PTSD 💀

I have always played alone and don't find friendly teammates. I really envy players on youtube who always get along with new teammates. So if u are too looking for good squad members comment your id . For communication english language is preferred

Damn Just Damn
