Sorry one more thing Stens at El Alamein good lord no I could go on but It's bringing on the hernia. Also not only is The volksturmgewehr way to early it is only semi auto and is interpretated incorrectly it's the Volksturm(People's Storm) Gewehr (rifle) Not assault or storm rifle like the STG44. This rifle was being given to basically home guard AKA the Volksturm they ain't getting the top of the line STG44. sorry rant over. P.s the equipment worn through the mission is beyond dogshit.

The American soldiers in WAW were way more aggressive than the aussies in vanguard, you can hear the soldiers swearing almost constantly. The aussies in vanguard are so censored it’s hilarious, after researching about Australian troops fighting against the Japanese, the Japanese were terrified of them. There’s a video about a Japanese veteran recalling his experience with the aussies and he talks about them in such high regard, how one soldier charged at them with a handful of grenades and started chucking them everywhere.

Something that I think I'm the weird person about because nobody else seems to mention it, but in most terrain, infantry are absolutely not protecting the tanks. The tanks protect the infantry. If there's a gun emplacement firing AT at a tank, it's normally 300m - 1km away. Infantry can't hit shit at that range and the tank is what takes it out. It's only in close quarter urban combat that infantry are really supporting the tanks, and even then, more often than not the infantry has it's own problems to worry about. Sure there may be 2 or 3 guys who can hit the tanks and do anything, but there's probably 30-40 guys who can fuck you up as a random dude on the ground. I want to see one of these missions where every time a panzerfaust or an rpg (for modern games) is fired at a tank, the tank just turns and completely fucks up the guy's position if it lives. Like the panzerfaust shoots at the tank from a second story window, then another tank from further back in the column just shoots HE into the building and blows it the fuck up. There's the tank mission in WAW where the player is doing that, but I want to see more games where the main job of the infantry is to keep up with a tank that's lazily moving along mowing people down, and if the tank gets too far ahead, enemies start coming out from the sides with mines to try and place them in front of the tracks.

If anything they would have flown the Union Jack alongside the Australian Flag. I think this was probably a reference to Monte Cassino where the Poles flew the Polish flag from the ruins but then were told to also fly a Union flag alongside it, I think it's because Allied commanders assumed quite a lot of Allied troops would not know what the Polish flag looked like, but would have known the British flag and thus easier to identify, but from what I've read, the Polish flag stayed. I'm pretty sure this was added to make the British look incompetent or downplay their role in WW2.

Supply Sergeant quartermasters in different branches of the military's and from different nations in in an alliance always done this sort of thing to smooth out the supply chain issues. They get away with it because senior officers amongst the biggest clients get away with moving a lot of deer around when everything is recorded in triplicate where is the paper trail and as long as it's done the war that paper trail is not a problem however when people start in riching themselves on the taxpayers' dollar then that becomes treasonous and assisting the enemy and times of Total War that sort of things doesn't go down very well for anyone that is caught doing it that's the sort of thing that gets you shot or hung if you're in uniform no you're a civilian doing it then depending on the severity may cause natural death of natural causes unnaturally or you may become the poster child for cooked for breathe and walk property when all the previously mentioned paperwork that isn't a problem just landed on the desks or safes prior to discovery after extraordinary and dedicated investigators and Forensic Accountants painstakingly followed elaborate paper trails that lead to a war profiteering traitor who's greed is depriving our soldiers at the front from the war material they need. A total war is usually for national and if the letter of the law has to be bent and twisted to keep the spirit of the law alive which is the functioning of society which that moment is engaged in a total war voting for national survival let it will be done to keep inflation minimum and sustain war effort and that's will be done. Total war between nation States is not just people fighting each other it is the entire economic system of a nation vs another where destroying the Enemies industrial capacity killing their soldiers they're all just parts of the main products of which and Nations state engaged in total war is producing. The product which is the destruction of the Enemies will to keep fighting. It's ya inflation is a really key thing, Total War economy inflation represents an increase in the price that products and if the increases price of that product increases to a point which is beyond what the nation-state is willing to pay, the war ends.

That way they know how it looks, feels, and more importantly functions.

I'm guessing someone has beat me to this in the comments already, but I had to weigh in. The Lee-Enfield depicted in the game is a No. 4 Mk. I. You are correct that it should have an aperture sight, but the more glaring mistake is that it shouldn't be there. The No. 4 Mk. I was introduced part way through the war to replace the SMLE (AKA the No. 1 Mk. III). The No. 4 was not used in North Africa to my knowledge (Maybe in Tunisia). It was certainly not produced or adopted by the Aussies, who chose instead to stick with the SMLE. Also, the grooves in the handguard are correct for the No. 4. They just only appeared on some of the rifles. Edit: Also also, I don't *think* they would have Stens. Probably still Thompsons at that point.

But my biggest gripe with it in game is that Commonwealth forces in the Western Desert would’ve still been using older ‘snub-nosed’ SMLEs. Especially the Australians who would’ve been using Lithgow made SMLEs until 1945 - 17:00 - Even though the Sten was in service at this point, the M1928 Thompson was still the standard SMG for the 8th Army in Africa and would remain so well into the Italian Campaign - 20:00 - There were a couple USAAF heavy bomber squadrons attached to the Desert Air Force but they flew B-24s, not B-17s. Also that B-17 appears to be in bare metal aluminum, which wasn’t standard until mid-1944 - 26:15 - There was a 100+ round drum for the Bren but it looked nothing like this and was always tripod or vehicle mounted - 36:00 - the VStG was semi-auto only - 36:30 - The Afrika Korps still mainly had MG34s although they had a few MG42s at this point

26:15 as a Czech viewer, I agree with your pain. For context, the Czechoslovakian Vz 28 LMG was the father of the Bren gun. I could be wrong, but I'm sure that the British bought a license to produce a modified version, which was the Bren. Bren is actually an acronym (is this the right word?) for the names of two cities, Brno and Enfield.

It's the RPG comment that still gets me. For those who don't know, RPG originally meant ручной противотанковый гранатомёт (Ruchnoy Protivotankovyy Granatomot), meaning Handheld Anti-tank Grenade Launcher and eventually, the translation Rocket Propelled Grenade followed, making "RPG" a backronym. What makes the usage of this term so wrong is that the first Ruchnoy Protivotankovyy Granatomot (RPG-1) only started its design by 1944 whereas RPG-2, which actually went into circulation, was used beginning 1954. So, the term RPG was never used in 1942, much less in the North African setting.

COD world at war had different reload animation to M1 Garand. If you do partial reloading, it will manually eject the current clip first, then insert a fresh one. If its a full reload, then it's the usual auto eject PING
@aveteranplayer64032 жыл бұрын
The M1 Garand can ping by shooting or pushing the bolt in the right backwards. The partial reload kinda don't exist to M1 Garand without pressing the eject button near the rear site and you don't put bullets after pushing the bolt backwards. So it is safe that this part is accurate in World at War, but it is often strange that you shoot 2 bullets and the clip is complety empty after ejecting it just to insert a new clip that are filled with it. World at War almostly did it right if it weren't for the empty clip ejecting after 2 shots Edit: Also, M1 Garand will eject one projectile before ejecting the clip. That also doesn't happen in World at War. So its another thing that I putted in the spotlight because many people often mistakes with WaW M1 Garand being 100% accurate.

Considering the white dominions were equals, self governing with their own militaries and officers it just wouldn’t have occurred. Also Australian identity was still forming, like the vast majority Australians to this day are only four or five generations at max from there British (Irish included) ancestors, unless they are natives or migrants from elsewhere.

Sure the m16 would have been a burst rifle at the end of Vietnam, but the AUG, the other assault rifle they put in has 2 firing modes. Semi automatic with a partial trigger pull, and fully automatic with a full trigger pull. There is no burst variant of the AUG and the advantage of the bullpup design is that it maintains full stopping power while being more compact for close quarters fighting.

The guns in this game hurt my poor little german soul. Especially the Volkssturmgewehr. The thing in the game has about fuck all in common with the real one. It's not an assault rifle. The real one was a semi-auto last-ditch rifle, VG1 and 2 were even bolt action. It's not the Peoples Assault Rifle, though word for word it would translate like that. The Volkssturm was a homeguard militia, though Volkssturm sounds better in propaganda. These guys were not assaulting american or russian positions. The ppl who used this were not all soldiers, though some veterans were around. Funny enough, thanks to german doctrine we hadn't had too much of those who were still in fighting condition. If you could reasonably fight, you were at the front. It's not an assault rifle either. These things did not go to the front, let alone really leave the country. They were guard weapons essentially. Cheap crap just about good enough for purpose. And there wasn't the one VG, there were 5. they were designed to be made cheap, fast and to the companies strengths. Gustloff produced most of them in the end, I think. At least the semi-autos. And I don't say they were absolute dogshite, us germans knew a thing or two about making guns, it's just that these things were not designed to have a multi year service life in active combat units. They were not made that way. I mean in the end we even made the K98 with a laminated wood stocks. Which is brilliant for accuracy and sturdyness actually, should've done that earlier. And to find the STG44 at virtually every corner just hurts. Yes, it was a brilliant thing, it just was too little, too late. If we had had those in '41, oh boy, we would've torn shit up even worse than we did with our K98s and MPs. Let's just say I think Stalingrad wouldn't have taken a month and we could've, maybe, made it to Moscow. Though an actually reliable heavy tank we could actually produce in reasonable numbers would've been more helpful in that regard.

I’m sure everyone likes to do things differently though, but at least as a former Texas landscaper: the slouched hat tooooootally is useful in hot environments without having to universally have the brim down, so I think they can get a pass on that one.

The old games were made by different people is why. COD 1, 2, 4 and most of MW2 were made by Infinity Ward, who is now known as Respawn Entertainment, with some staying behind and making Infinite Warfare and MW2019. COD 3 and Big Red One were made by Treyarch and they've always had the more gritty, emotional storytelling down. COD Vanguard was made by Sledgehammer, AKA the guys responsible for every increasing disappointment since MW2. MW3 which coasted off of the series success and was not nearly as good, Advanced Warfare, WW2, Vanguard. All of them are Sledgehammer, which leads to the inevitable conclusion that Call of Duty itself hasn't gone downhill, more that they have a development team that needs to be let go. Black Ops 3 and 4 weren't the best thing in the world, but they were by no means bad and they're the worst that Treyarch has put out.

Why exactly are there no Italians in El Alamein the whole reason the Germans were in Africa was to help the Italian soldiers who were getting their asses kicked by the British. I don't know why these writers portray the Axis as just the Germans when especially at this point Italy was still making moves of their own.

Because Game developers think History is too boring or the Italians were "too weak" or "not evil enough", even though the Italians did commit their fair share of war crimes too, just not to the extent as the Germans or Japanese. Also the Italians were largely ineffective because of poor leadership and poor infrastructure, but they were a key player and honestly should be included. Good thing a lot of indie game developers are including Italians when necessary.

That "War machine" is just a WW1 German Maschinen Gewehr 08 or MG08, with just whatever they felt like throwing on it, lol, it even has half of the protective shield. Also, it was very rare for German soldiers to use their kar98k bayonets.

I think the thing with him not aiming down the sight to cycle the bolt was because the player was quick scoping. Because you see him aiming while cycling when nails those 4 German in a row. Also I think the RPGs they where talking about where panzershreks? I think those where around in 1942, not many of them though. Also the volkstermgewer (spelled wrong, don’t care) was semi auto only. Which is something they got wrong in cod ww2 as well. Also, also, I guess that MG42 extended mag would be bakelite not polymer.

About your 3rd paragraph, it was called "Volksturm Gewehr" rather than "Volksurmgewehr" as it was to be issued to the Volksturm, who were pretty much the German equivalent of the British Homeguard

The only five rounds in the Lee Enfield dates back to the Great War. Commonwealth soldiers were not allowed to fill the magazine in the Lee Enfield with 10 rounds, this was to reduce tension on the magazine spring, as apparently this would weaken the spring over time and I was a expensive part to replace and could interfere with the firearms performance. a quote from the 1914 amendment Musketry Regulations Manual of 1909 "Magazine springs may also become weak, if the magazine is continually kept loaded with ten instead of five rounds" and "he magazine will hold two charges of five cartridges each, but should in ordinary circumstances be loaded with one only, as the soldier will thus retain the power of adding another charge, at any time, should necessity demand". in 1937 it became an official policy stating in the Small Arms Training. Volume I. Pamphlet No 3. RIFLE (1937) "magazine holds two chargers, each of 5 rounds, but should generally only be loaded with one". So it seems to be a bit of a loose rule, but I can imagine NCO's or Officers disciplining their subordinates for misusing their equipment. Without a doubt two clips would have been loaded in thousands of times during both world wars, but the act of loading only one in is historically accurate.

early on yes. i watched some historians discussing this about a year ago and revisions to the .303 operation allowed for 2 magazines and was even part of the mad minute drill procedure by ww2 at least.

@@WifiPillow Not like this. He's using a "C clamp" grip, something that wouldn't be popularised until the 2000's. In general the game is full of tacticool stuff that has no business in a WW2 game. Yet another area they've done no research in whatsoever. And just like with everything else, something that had regressed severely when compared to the first COD games.
