>not a single WW2 FPS with axis POV and decent single-player story-line
why do game developers WANT us to be unhappy?
>You will never have a single player storyline of fighting the Russians on the Eastern front or defending Omaha beach.

Well anon, its kind of hard to sell a game you cant win.

>Well anon, its kind of hard to sell a game you cant win.
nah, the ending should just be a picture of emperor Trump and a line that says "To be continued..."
>>329886301
halo reach.
And people buy WW2 stuff indidscriminately, because it was the one and only war the US clearly won and was indisputably on the good side.
Which is, incidentally, the reason why it really could not sell, people are loathe to get moral relativism, and playing a german soldier that is not the absolute devil these games usually portait germans as would make them uncomfortable.
The least it would need is one ally campaign next to the axis one.
This would only work if the game is intendend to deliver a anti-war message like Spec Ops: The Line
I think those types of games dont sell well.
>>329886301
besides, "unsere Mutter unsere Vater" was a german mini series about german soldiers and nurses and other people, and although you knew how it would end, you were always hoping for the best.
it would finally be something realistic, something that actually keeps you on the edge of your seat, instead of those cliche hollywood movies where even if the main char is in a crashing airplane, bitten by 10 poisonous snakes, with a bomb whose timer is on 5 seconds, and with 20 villains shooting at him from 3 meters away with assault rifles, you aren't worried in the least, knowing perfectly well that he's gonna make it fine.
I think that a single player storyline where you actually start out motivated and excited, but slowly see the world crumble around you, would be much more absorbing and entertaining than the typical cod bullshit.
i think it's time we get a game that ends with the main char in a russian POW camp, freezing to death after all his buddies died in-vain.
i'd love a story like that
also, at all the 'merrika posters ITT:
russia won the war, not the US.
And ww2 games should be about europeans, not 'merrikans.

Butonly Friedhelm died, others got off relatively lightly
>>329887190
All of germany died.
Being on the losing side kills your spirit before it kills your body
>>329887407
>>329885783
that was a pretty good show. definitely depressing af during the ending though
>>329887190
the singer woman died too, remember? executed in a german prison for being a pessimist (they don't actually show it)
>>329885783
>No WW game where you play as Japanese soldier manitly
>Doing sudoku
>Doing banzai charge on a plane
>Drinking sake before you charge into dead as an infantry
>eating raw fish to fill your HP..
>>329888353
You can do banzai charges in Rising Storm. It even reimburses your team spawn tickets if you kill yourself and take americans with you
>>329888353
I want to play as a japanese soldier stationed in korea or china
>>329888435
thats not realistic, not even thematically. banzai rushes are what lost all of their battles. should be a double ticket loss
>>329888435
Yeah, but it boring fast thou.
CoD WaW is a great Ruski simulator.
Playing brit or USA all the time bored me.
>>329888506
It helps encourage players to do suicide kills making gameplay more interesting
>>329888616
war isn't supposed to be interesting. I thought RO was supposed to be realistic?
>>329888665
Its more realistic than your average shooter, but I wouldn't call it that realistic.
>>329888665
it isn't nor doesn't strive for simulation realism
it has things that can be considered lifelike but is also balanced to actually be a fun videogame
>no Hitler Youth camp simulator
It hurts
>>329888571
The only things I remember about WaW was lying in a pile of dead bodies at the start. The level with tank push that ends going into a train. And the American level where you get infinite mortar grenades.Oh also getting put into a gas chamber an having an experimental nerve gas tested on your dude.
>>329889446
The ending was pretty awesome while its still feels kinda weak for me compare to other old WW CoD.
>>329888994
This. Red Orchestra has fairly realistic ballistics and weapon damage, but it also has fun gameplay.
>>329889446Oh also getting put into a gas chamber an having an experimental nerve gas tested on your dude.
Thats a flashback mission in Black Ops
>>329889659
> but it also has fun gameplay.
>>329886301
That is extremely limiting to the scope of games in general. Why the obsession with winning?
>>329889782
Yeah, fun is subjective I know. Its fun to me, might not be fun to you
>>329889832
Videogames are games, and the purpose of a game is to win.
>>329889832
I want a game where you use your emotions tolose
>>329889730
Why do you think he blacked it out?
Get with the subtext, sperglord
>>329889910
Define "winning". Why do you need to "win" in order to feel enjoyment in a game?
>>329885783
just play one of the trillion ww2 games that came out last decade?
if you are wishing for a perfect game, why even waste time retreading ww2 like it's new?
>>329889910
My purpose, when I play a game, is to enjoy myself. Winning is one of the things that I enjoy but I get tired of it too.
I play a lot of Forza multiplayer, and all i used to care about was winning. Now it isn't so important to me any more. I have turned off all the assists and have increased my skill at controlling the various cars by a lot but I am also winning a lot less. A more challenging racing game where I succeed less turned out to be more fun for me.
My point is, there is more to games than just winning. And I think that games have some untapped potential here. But if there is no market for the games I am envisioning but there is a market for the current type of games, I don't expect it to change.
>>329890035
>Why do you need to "win" in order to feel enjoyment in a game?
Never said that.
But a game is literally a set of rules in which 2 or more oponents play to win.
The purpose of any game is to win.
It's incredible how this thread hasn't devolved into /pol/shit yet.
I dunno about you guys but I would play the shit out of a WW2 axis side of story dloone in the style of spec ops: the line
They could do it like a day of stalingrad where you just get shit on more and more till you're a broken shell or maybe the last days of Berlin

ASIA FOR THE ASIANS, AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS, WHITE COUNTRIES FOR EVERYBODY!
Everybody says there is this RACE problem. Everybody says this RACE problem will be solved when the third world pours into EVERY white country and ONLY into white countries.
The Netherlands and Belgium are just as crowded as Japan or Taiwan, but nobody says Japan or Taiwan will solve this RACE problem by bringing in millions of third worlders and quote assimilating unquote with them.
Everybody says the final solution to this RACE problem is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries to “assimilate,” i.e., intermarry, with all those non-whites.
What if I said there was this RACE problem and this RACE problem would be solved only if hundreds of millions of non-blacks were brought into EVERY black country and ONLY into black countries?
How long would it take anyone to realize I’m not talking about a RACE problem. I am talking about the final solution to the BLACK problem?
And how long would it take any sane black man to notice this and what kind of psycho black man wouldn’t object to this?
But if I tell that obvious truth about the ongoing program of genocide against my race, the white race, Liberals and respectable conservatives agree that I am a naziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews.
They say they are anti-racist. What they are is anti-white.
Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white.
ITT: basement dwellers arguing about an ancient war that even their baby boomers parents have fought
>no vietnam game with modern graphics for insane foliage
>no campaign where you have a romanticised fight with awesome 60s music and bro comrades and no obligatory russian roulette scene
>>329886851
I hate this series
I tried watching it a year ago while I was also watching through Generation Kill, Band of Brothers and the Pacific and all I saw was German cuck porn
>>329887042
>WW2 was only in Europe
>>329892961
it was a complete jews propaganda series.
i wonder why they never made any german ww2 movies based on real accounts of people that fought in the war like Band Of Brothers or The Pacific.
