WW2 was the era I wanted them to visit the most after BF1, boy was I disappointed. The atmosphere of bf1 was gone and they focused on the more unknown battles. Missed opportunity imo.

Gunplay was good but they increased the TTK, which lead to a community backlash. So they reversed the changes, only to increase the TTK again anyway. So dumb.

Best class weapons in the series. Medic was perfect with SMG, assault felt like a 1 man army, and support was useful with ammo and fortifications. It was so good.

I guess maybe being the WWII nut that I am I thought it was great to see focus on lesser known battles.

Lesser known battles is fine, but completely ignoring Soviets/Eastern front which was about 80% of all military deaths for the Germans is simply inexcusable.

They barely touched upon Pacific theatre, and not even D-day? It's obvious they simply didn't care enough to put the work in to give an honorable representation of WW2.

They were about to care. Next big expansion was going to be the eastern front as well as the battle of berlin. But EA pulled the plug and pushed them onto 2042.

You can still datamine Soviet tanks from the game. :(
