Agreed. I was a huge Midway buff as a kid 40 some odd years ago. There's a lot wrong with who was where when. For instance it's not that the fighter support wasn't there yet, it had already been drawn off. Midway was mostly a study in how planning is essential, plans are useless and outrolling the other side for luck can have huge implications. Still pretty cool from a game visual perspective.

By the end of 1942 early 1943 the US had one carrier in pacific operation (borrowing one from the UK USS robin) while Japan had four. The US was not dominating the Pacific war by the end of 1942 and Midway did not result in loss of many experienced Japanese pilots most of whom were recovered, you also can't just ignore the Guadelcanel campaign of 1942 and its significance which was in its totality more significant than Midway. In reality the soul of the Japanese navy was still very much existed, literally a month after Midway the US navy suffered its naval worst defeat ever at Salvo Island losing 5 cruisers at once despite outnumbering the opponent, the soul crushing truly took place in the marianas in 1944.

Honestly, the mission concept and the graphics is great, but they should make the plot based on the real Battle of Midway. The intro cutscene is pretty much right though, but they should have added the squadron of TBD Devastators attacking the fleet (this isn't necessary), but it starts wrong from 7:58 onwards. Here's my suggestion for a better concept of this mission: First, the first Japanese carrier to be hit by a bomb in the battle was the Kaga (the second carrier in the mission), and then the Soryu (the aircraft carrier was the first to be bombed in the mission was the Soryu), no air battle was shown between the sinking of the Soryu and the attacks on the remaining carriers. The Dauntless Squadron began diving bombs on the Akagi (offscreen in game) after that. After the Akagi was sunk, they should at least make a cutscene of the Japanese attack on the USS Yorktown. Before the attack on the Hiryu (offscreen in game) begins, the player will deal with the Zero squadron. After finishing the wave of aerial attacks, the player will dive bomb the Hiryu and the mission is over (Honestly, this will make the mission longer and more challenging like the Black Cats in World at War). Second, like everyone said, Dauntless can't outrun Zero. Edit: The cutscene starts at 14:49 is one of the best cutscenes in the CoD series, but was made for such a historical inaccurate WW2 game (i know this is just a game).
@visualdon2 жыл бұрын
It seems this took inspiration from the style of the 2019 Midway film. But, it has none of the historical accuracy of that film (as far vents and people involved) but it shares many of the technical inaccuracies of that film and adds some of its own (ships being too close to each other, inaccurate models and unrealistic dive bombinng etc). But its just a COD game at the end of the day. If they made it 100% realistic, it probably wouldn't be very exciting as in this video game format. The good news is that the real battle is actually several times more interesting. There are several amazing books and audio books and lectures on youtube. I recommed Shattered Sword by Jonathan Parshal and Anthony Tully as probably the most detailed account of the battle.

@fungusamongus694202 жыл бұрын
The carrier is Enterprise (3:41, number"6" on the bridge), and the plane's number starts with a S, therefore it's VS-6. He hit Soryu first (bridge on the right, two stacks), dogfighted for five minutes, climbed into the clouds, and miraculously reloaded (Warthunder arcade mode? lol) and dropped another 1000lb on Kaga (bridge on the right, single stack, and "ka" written on the deck). The 100lbs on the wings somehow stayed there despite the planes weren't equipped with them IRL due to range and performance issues. It's funny because in real life the guy who sunk two carriers in one day was from the other squadron, VB-6 not VS-6. And the two carriers he hit were Akagi and Hiryu, not the two in game. And even then the game hit Soryu and Kaga in reverse order of what happened in real life. This somehow managed to be worse than the shitshow of a CGI movie Midway. Also I like how the rear seat gunner is calling out the altitude...

As someone who is a fan of naval history and knows a lot about this battle, the inaccuracies just pisses me off. Rant along with historical info: The amount of planes that you shot down during this battle literally makes you a double or triple or idk Ace (a Flying ace is a credit given to a pilot who shoots down 5 or more enemy aircraft). The dive bombers and torpedo bombers didn't attack the IJN fleet at the same time, the torpedo bombers arrive first and their attempt was a complete failure due to how terrible their planes and torpedoes are and the Zeroes shooting them down during their runs. When the dive bombers attacked the IJN fleet, there were no Zeroes over the fleet since they were chasing down the retreating torpedo bombers. During the battle, the dive bombers only had one bomb (even though the SBD can carry two bombs, they only used one so they can carry more fuel). The fleet formation is soo incorrect, the ships are too close to each other, in real life they're more farther apart from each other so they can maneuver to avoid bombs and torpedoes. During the dive bombing sequence, the Japanese carrier is soo slow to the point that they just want to die. The developers reused many models (Kongo, Kaga, Akagi) on the IJN fleet to the point where their carriers look alike, and the overabundance of Kongo everywhere. After dropping their bombs, SBDs would try and get out of the hailstorm of gunfire, not to try and become fighters (sure you can add the argument of "Swede" Vejtesa taking out 3 Zeroes in an SBD, but this is way more different as seen from this level). I'm tired of ranting here but after seeing this, i kinda now appreciate the movie Midway (2019) even though its kinda boring and mediocre, at least its more accurate than this level. On a side note, AFGuides I have no hate towards you, you do have some good content (especially the memes) i'm just complaining on how inaccurate this is. Also sorry for some bad grammar and i may also have some things wrong, so if there are some things incorrect be sure to let me know.

Agreed the models are actually quite accurate to say the least. During the battle of midway the U.S didn't have many any battleships present. The largest ship they had were the carriers and cruisers. And the class of cruiser portrayed here is a new orleans class heavy cruiser which is also accurate. Although the ships are way too close to eachother but that is somewhat excusable since they wanted the scene to be more cinematic. One thing that bothers me is that the american cruisers are missing their gun turrets. Maybe the mission is unpolished im not sure but if you look hard enough you will notice that the gun turrets are missing.
@biggiecheese71132 жыл бұрын
On the Japanese side its also accurate. The Japanese did have battleships present along with cruisers and destroyers. The ships modeled here are also accurate since from what I can gather the models are either from the Nagato, Kongou, Fusou or ise class battleships. Yamato was present during the battle but was part of a separate fleet of warships meant to engage with the American fleet in a surface engagement. So props to the COD team in making the models accurate
@brentgranger78562 жыл бұрын
Thank God this is meant for entertainment purposes only, as this mission is a massively inaccurate presentation of the Battle of Midway. Here's my list I noticed: 1. The Japanese and American fleets must have been only a few miles from each other, as it takes no time to get to the enemy fleet. It took over 2 hours in real life. 2. Apparently, the Dauntless dive bomber is just as agile as the Japanese A6M Zero and has unlimited ammunition. Jackson would be the actual reason the Japanese fleet was destroyed, not the blazes caused by the bombs. 3. Dive bombers apparently are responsible for protecting torpedo planes, not fighters. 4. Japanese ships apparently don't shoot at any American aircraft below 2000 feet. 5. Jackson's Dauntless apparently has 2 500 lb bombs instead of the possible lone one carried below the fuselage. Did he drop his 500 lb bomb on one carrier and his wing bombs on the other? 6. Only 2 pilots at Midway, Norman "Dusty" Kleiss and Richard "Dick" Best, hit 2 aircraft carriers during the battle. Kleiss hit Kaga and Hiryu while Best hit Akagi and Hiryu.

This is the most innacurate version of the Battle of Midway i've ever seen, it's a disgrace. I'll just point out a few problems: Firstly, the american carrier screen is way too close to the carriers themselves. In real life, the carrier screen was formed of an outer ring of destroyers, a second closer ring of cruisers, and later on a last ring of battleships. Remember, the objective was to defend the carriers at all costs. Secondly, there wouldn't be any pre-flight checks and i don't think that the tower clears you for takeoff like modern days (copied from Battlefield 3.) Third, from the cockpit, the aircraft looks level with the carrier, whereas it should be at a higher angle than the deck, tailwheel. Forth, no attack group would ever huddle all of their aircraft together, the devastators were much slower than the dauntlesses, so the devastators took off first, and the dauntlesses took off later, the plan being for the dauntlesses to catch up to the devastators at the target. Fifth, the zeros appeared way too early, they should be defending their carriers, and where are the patrolling and maybe the escort wildcats? And it's clear that shooting down the zeros is literally a copy-paste of Cod WW2 where you're in the P-47, oh and the fact that your bombs replenish mid-air, seriously? You should be returning to the carrier for replenishment and refueling. Those are my major issues with this mission alone, but trust me, i have a lot more for the whole game, almost every mission.
@killerguythefox2 жыл бұрын
Also another point to add besides every single thing that makes no sense as its really just a fantasy fever dream of a game set in WW2. Is that the whole hunt for the japanese carriers were a long fight and it took considerable effort and luck to destroy them. There was so many moments where the carriers got helluva lucky through using dodging tactics. Plus the americans lost ALOT of planes at first getting even anywhere near the carriers. I forgot the numbers but the kill ratio was on the japanese side for a while. And it was some really lucky and skilled pilots that managed to do the first hits which slowly added up until they had them in a unlucky situation where the carriers were in a spot they couldnt get out of. In short taking down the japanese carriers at midway was nothing short of alot of luck, effort and sheer stubborness on the american side.

I'm sorry but like, this presentation of the battle for Midway is just.... bad, i think if Activision really wanted to copy Battlefield on something, it shouldn't have been that flight check cameo that is better in execution and presentation but rather the opening of Battlefield 1 where if you die, your perspective switches to another pilot or rear gunner to empathize the lethality of dive bombing into flak fire rather than getting more Japanese kills in a single flight than most aces. Instead this just looks like something i'd see in a arcade machine, follow a scripted sequence, fly around in circles and shoot the same, uninteresting enemies at what's meant to feel like high speeds but in reality, just feel slow and sluggish from both Zero's and the aircraft your flying. I understand its not mean to be a milsim but actually respecting the events rather than this romanticized attempt of one of the most important battles within the Pacific Theatre, in respect to the companies American ancestors who some may of been there themselves (The Ancestors not the peeps in charge) at the battle of midway. If this is meant to be a highlight of Vanguard then its high time they should get someone different to direct the games.

No game will ever get historical accuracy correct, even games like HLL and Post Scriptum have very minute things wrong with them that aren’t accurate to the game. HLL’s M1A1 Thompson has an improper iron sight and Post Scriptum has a scoped rifle is in every squad (regardless of faction), when it was a platoon level weapon at most.

While the SBD with a bomb load was no match for a Zero, once it was free of its cargo it became, not an equal, but an opponent not to be underestimated, several accounts of the day have Japanese CAP Zero's chasing SBD's after their runs and not being able to down them.

SBDs were used as emergency fighters, mainly to intercept japanese strike aircraft. Although not super common, more than a few cocky Zero pilots have ended up in front of the sights of a desperate Dauntless pilot and paid the price.

Nice try but Bf3 is still the better carrier sequence, also from briefing he says they won't know what hit them, so this is the first wave of dive bombers?
