@Mr.Apsylone, yes i am okay for suggestion. but i will make it as 'to do/consider' list.

This mod is focus towards Missions ,so i will prioritise towards them. include existing ones inside to confirm is working.

Running trials to make it work also require time (to reduce crashing during playing)

Multiplayer side is still not perfect yet due to current status of resources so sometime i need to rework for scratch.


If there are any bugs/crash spotted due to certain maps or units, u can inform by typing in to allow me to fix it asap.

ok perfect, I didn't want to spam the comments. I must say that although the multiplayer is not a pritority it is the funniest mod that I have been able to play. I played with 3 of my friends and even them were totally hooked.

If we find any bugs or problems, I will let you know, and for content suggestions I will only do so if I know it is workable and I take into consideration that it is not easy.

@Mr.Apsylone, oh that will help alot, also thank you for enjoying this mod.

Hello, first note on the faction: Vichy France
this is not a criticism, it's my suggestions and feedback

Faction in general:

A great support faction, with a great capacity to fill gaps with infantry and tank at a cheap cost. But who has some high tier tanks (Panther, Tiger II and ARL) but his weak points are the artillery and the anti-taks cannons which are few or very expensive.The FT 75 BS is great for immobilizing enemy tanks and the ARL 44 is AMAZING. So a faction balanced in pvp and pve

Problems and question: this is not to denigrate your work; I don't know if it's intentional (balancing) or not

The regular infantry use the Chauchat 1915 and 1918 who shoot to fast, the real life counterpart shot at : 250 shot/min

The French SS : used a Hotchkiss 22, this weapon was not very widespread in the French army that was a export gun so more used by Greek and china, so the ss should use a MG42 or MG34 that was standard issue in the army, once again i dont know if this is intentional or not

The mechanized SS : Used a French vehicule, greatly converted by germany and used by vichy but i don't think the SS would use them as they own vehicles du that they had standard issue Sd.Kfz. 251/1. In addition the Lorraine 37L leaves the soldiers exposed. My suggestion is to put the Sd.Kfz. 251/1 in the transport tab at a higher price so could transferred the SS in a vehicule more adapted.

The new added Panzerkampfwagen M4-748 (a) (1), gives too much power for a reduced price,like for 750 you have a turret, a 76 gun and a .50 cal ... The stug III and the B1 At become a bad choice (at my opinion) I suggest it should be in the SP to keep this faction unique and balanced

SP problems and questions :

The French elite arrived with a very slow truck, which prevents me and my friends from taking this unit. Also, I don't know if it's me but I don't see a big difference between the Legion of Volunteers and the Elites

The blue division is badly written, in french it’s “Division bleue”

There is a cost problem between the Somua SA 40 (at 6 SP) and ARL 44 (at 5 SP), the ARL have a better canon and better armor so I don't see why anyone would buy the SA40.

The R36 battle group costs 5 SP or the equivalent of an ARL 44, I think it's too expensive to be interesting I think 4 would be better

Again it's not a criticism, I don't want to be arrogant, it's my feedback. If I express myself badly let me know and it's an amazing mod

@Mr.Apsylone, thanks for the response on one of the faction on vichy france.

First on small arms infantry weapon and vehicle, it was intentional

i did adjust before for Chauchat 1915 and 1918 , but i went with automatic mode that is faster compare to semi-automatic (3 round burst)

French SS don't used a Hotchkiss 22 rather it was not adopted in large numbers only small numbers of usage of strip-fed,

Just a light machine gun made for export to anyone who was interested.

but in game , MG42 or MG34 became too commonly seen, so i stick to 'Place of origin' or Gameplay variety.

eg:

Romania have some equip with ZH-29 which is never used by them but they have alot of 'export' like zb 24 rifle so i place it in the way that no many people will notice unless u know history.

if u have play other faction, u will notice that some axis faction have either captured BTR transport or standard issue Sd.Kfz. 251/1, but they are there only for one reason , either infantry/towed function. faction like poland have t20 btr transport but because t20 is cheaper than a m3, u can get elite squad with t20 out first in compare to one btr m3 with squad of elite.


Panzerkampfwagen M4-748 (a) is just a testing groundwork to balance but placing as a SP may work well, i can look into it.

“Division bleue” naming i can look into it

Somua SA 40 and ARL 44 are both prototype, i can rebalance to SP for both

The R36 battle group cost will rework with some adjusting on the timing.

The French elite will be relook again but highly chance it will be replaced

Thanks for your answer, I hope I don't sound arrogant. I will make a review on other factions later, but I don't want to rush you x)

Again sorry if sometimes I focus on details that were intentional

@Mr.Apsylone, sometime is good to have players to comment, it just show that players really like the mod.

it also show that modder like me is not efficient enough, so i try to rectify it.

i know you are very busy but i looking foward to it it could be faction or corrections

suggestion: the t 28 thats in the game is not the t 28 its really strange when it dies it turns into a proper t 28 you could use the t28 from strat 29s a world at war mod (also im not trying to ♥♥♥♥ on your hard work i really like this mod and its the best multiplayer mods out there:) it also fixes ostfront and adds the ss which is THE MOST BASED faction because of the american units it has fromotto skorzeny legendary mission during the battle of the bulge thats what i like most about this mod is that these strange and wacky units feel really real and tell a story ex the ost front has a bunch of cursed tanks with hobbled together parts it feels like your playing a nation that is battered and desperate to defend its self just like how late war Germany was

@Kurdish Tigers, i think u are talking about the USA T28 Super Heavy Tank, i haven't update that unit yet, i will rework on that vehicle on the next update.

THANK YOU SOO MUCH I THOUT IT WAS ON PURPOSE AND YES I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE US T28 THANKS FOR RESPONDING YOUR THE BEST LOVE YOUUU <3

i suggest you add Slovak state

@Yi Atlas, alright i will fixed urgent major issue like unable to fire stuff in game , then i take note on some stuff mention here to research into it, not all will be ideal but i appreciate all the time that u input here. it mean alot that i need to improve on.

I just noticed this.

The "75mm Schneider mle 1912" is not Schneider. The model is the Russian Putilov 76.2 field gun.

I d suggest to replace that gun with the French 1897 75mm.

The French can use US M5 AT gun as their heavy AT gun, Vichy France with Pak40.

i have a suggest that you should add Australia and new Zealand and Spain.

@georgecorrie the rock, there are some units that have Spanish Grenadier (Vichy Faction SP)

Commonwealth have alot of mixed units on Australia and New Zealand (Soon i may Added Indian unit to them but it may not look good without their native language)
