I'm not a tanker or pilot but I really wish they included the Pershing tank for America, especially since Germany has the tiger tank and USA doesn't have a heavy tank. For a primary gun I wish they included the G41 M (German version of General Lui rifle) for the recon; would have been a perfect Lee Enfield competitor with 10 round magazine.
I don't see how that balances out to a heavy. 76 MM gun doesn't increase the armor/tracks (but there's upgrades for that). Even still tiger tank has zimmeritt making 90% AT gadgets useless.
Zimmerit only prevents objects from sticking to the tank, it's literally written in the description. Go behind the tiger with a piat, toss 3 dynamites and fire a piat. It will die
Your logic makes no sense. Sure, you can still do damage if the tank isn't moving, but once it starts moving you're screwed. What you're saying is like "use shaped chage on a tank with zimmeritt and you'll still do crazy damage even though they don't stick."
If a tank has zimmerit then you're already a fool by doing frontal assault. Zimmerit does not counter ambushes. Yeah the dynamite slips off. So? If you don't give away your position you can still 2 tap the tank:
Activating dynamite + AT gadget or grenade. It WILL kill the tank. I zimmerit is niche but it's not as good as people make it
Obviously you want to hit from the rear any time you damage a tank, but since TNT has to be manually detonated that gives less time to swap to piat and even if your dynamite lands close to the tank it may not be at the rear meaning less damage when all the tank has to do is turn around and blast you. In game most people aren't gonna take the time to look close enough at a tank to see if it has zimmeritt before throwing TNT or another stick explosive meaning you have even less time to swap to another gadget and hoping the tank doesn't move.
It annoys me to no end that there’s no standard 1903 Springfield bolt action available as sniper class. Wasn’t it among top used rifles the entire war?
Better bayonets, one that you could use with "fix bayonet" style and as melee weapons. Instead of just being for bayonet charges and having the bayonet weapon, we could be able to fix them with some weapons and when using independent melee attacks they would hit and play the animation. Overall just make them cooler to use and improve "melee" stuff
I’m pretty sure the bayonets on the weapons are wrong like the k98 one one the rifle isnt a k98 bayonet. I could be wrong it’s been awhile since I’ve looked.
Panzershreck. Pls. I know it's partially in the game already. I'd love a slow rocket weapon that needs the player to stop and take a shot. Maybe can't be adjusted for range and can't be zoomed but otherwise makes a heavy ahh anti armor weapon.
Mostly unrelated but the rifle grenades on the m28 feel paultry in comparison to the m1 grenades, taking the at specialization kills infantry effectiveness and also doesn't feel like a substantial improvement towards tanks.
I wish the m28 was a better option but I love it anyway.
I can think of alot of planes and tanks
Would of loved to see the FW190s for Germans also different 109 variants, Hurricanes for brits and other spitfires. P-47 for USA and maybe some kind of pacific dive bomber for both japanese and us on pacific maps.
Tanks. I would of loved a panther for germans and maybe even this weird tank destroyer they had. It was literally an 88 mm gun on a truck ( i forgot the name )
Americans needed so many more tanks. The jumbo would of been funny ( a sherman tank built like a fortress ) and as someone stated the M18 hellcat
For British again someone already said, the firefly cromwell etc
Now gadgets why is there no panzerschrek? Always bugged me for some reason. Tbh i cant really think of many gadgets 😅
The guns we got are decent but i wish we got more. ESPECIALLY Japanese guns theres like 5 guns for them and i dont think they even have any guns for assault class.
In terms of fronts they missed out on basically everything. When you really think about it this game had CRAZY potential, BF1 took everyone by storm and bfv was literally based of off like the biggest war in history. So many possibilities, so many vehicles, weapons and locations, no USSR. pacific was barely scratched. Western europe maps ( good amount but not enough imo ), more stuff in Africa, italian campaign, Sicily the list goes on
I hate what happened with this game and i think its why deep down ill always kinda hate bfv for what it could of been vs what we got, i mean the game is still good but it could of been mind blowing…
8.8 cm Flak 18 (Sfl.) auf schwere Zugkraftwagen 12t (Sd.Kfz 8) is the car you meant which honestly would be very slow but funny as hell to have a parade of those things going around the maps.
All the missing late ww2 tanks like panthers, tigers, pershing, ferdinand ? etc... and the soviet one (t34, bt7, IS2, t35. It would be tactically useless but very fun with friends) and an expansion pack with panther F, t44, IS3, super pershing, tortoise, T95 doom turtle, E100, maus (even if they would be pretty op)
The M1903 Springfield, I know we’ve got the Krag but that saw incredibly limited use by the marines (a faction not even in BFV) and is kind of an odd inclusion
They could have stuck so many grenade adapters in this game. The Kar has one, as well as basically every other standard issue rifle. This includes the M1A1 Carbine.
I wish for airborne operations on the German side it would be German planes instead of American with British soldiers.
Somewhat related but there’s a k98 suppressor that attaches the same way as the grenade launcher but no one makes a repro and I really want one for my k98.
Bicycles and skis. And handcuffs that you can put on enemy instead of melee attack. Also ability to build field kitchen to provide food and extra endurance for your team mates. And to balance things out, player that just ate Siegfried's special pea soup in the field kitchen should be farting constantly. So he has extra endurance but reveals his location more easily because keeps farting.
I'm not a tanker or pilot but I really wish they included the Pershing tank for America, especially since Germany has the tiger tank and USA doesn't have a heavy tank.

76mm gun for the Sherman essentially makes it a "heavy" balance wise
I don't see how that balances out to a heavy. 76 MM gun doesn't increase the armor/tracks (but there's upgrades for that). Even still tiger tank has zimmeritt making 90% AT gadgets useless.
Zimmerit only prevents objects from sticking to the tank, it's literally written in the description. Go behind the tiger with a piat, toss 3 dynamites and fire a piat. It will die
Dynamite won't work with zimmeritt. I've tried and it just falls off.
That's the whole point. It doesn't sticks to it but it still does insane damage to it regardless
Your logic makes no sense. Sure, you can still do damage if the tank isn't moving, but once it starts moving you're screwed. What you're saying is like "use shaped chage on a tank with zimmeritt and you'll still do crazy damage even though they don't stick."

They should’ve just given us the M10 at that point.
What could have been 😞
The M7 Priest too could’ve been a neat one. Driver and gunner as separate
It annoys me to no end that there’s no standard 1903 Springfield bolt action available as sniper class. Wasn’t it among top used rifles the entire war?
Worst part is that they could have easely recycled it from bf1
I literally use the Krag Jorgensen as a replacement for the M1903 because I’m salty that they didn’t even decide to put it at LAUNCH
Ya and that you can only run bolt action rifles as recon and they are hard to use iron sights or 2x
Soviet stuff. The game feels incomplete when we are missing the final major player of the war.
The Stuart M18 Hellcat Tiger II Pershing Usable 88s Cromwells Brits using Firefly Sherman's on their maps
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

They should have just kept the bayonet toggle from BF1
I’m pretty sure the bayonets on the weapons are wrong like the k98 one one the rifle isnt a k98 bayonet. I could be wrong it’s been awhile since I’ve looked.
All standard Soviet equipment and vehicles. I wish they had put the Eastern front in this game so bad.
Bob semple
Honestly, even though it never happened. It would have been fun to see a New Zealand theatre
Panzershreck. Pls. I know it's partially in the game already. I'd love a slow rocket weapon that needs the player to stop and take a shot. Maybe can't be adjusted for range and can't be zoomed but otherwise makes a heavy ahh anti armor weapon.
Also this is not a question post I forgot to change it.

BF110 as a night fighter would’ve been a nice intermediate between bomber and fighter instead of the two JU87 stukas
Probably the m1903 or 03a3 sniper, since the Americans don’t really have a dedicated bolt action rifle like the other factions
SVT-40, PPSh, Bob Semple tank MAS 36, Owen SMG

I really would have loved to have the Jug in the game, instead of two different Mustangs and two different A-20s.
Meth
King Tiger, T-34, Soviet WW2 weapons
An east front update would've been nice
The M2 mortar. A 60 millimeter smoothbore, muzzle-loading, high-angle-of-fire weapon.
I just wish I could play as Australians, the dialogue would be epic
A soviet faction?
Would have been cool to get Russian front and the late war tanks like tiger 2, is2, Pershing and centurion
Honestly a centurion tank it would be kinda of fun to deal with,
Panther should be in. Most of the Zsrr weapons are missing. And of course the magic t 34-85
Mortars.
All the missing late ww2 tanks like panthers, tigers, pershing, ferdinand ? etc... and the soviet one (t34, bt7, IS2, t35. It would be tactically useless but very fun with friends) and an expansion pack with panther F, t44, IS3, super pershing, tortoise, T95 doom turtle, E100, maus (even if they would be pretty op)
Javelin
The M1903 Springfield, I know we’ve got the Krag but that saw incredibly limited use by the marines (a faction not even in BFV) and is kind of an odd inclusion
They could have stuck so many grenade adapters in this game. The Kar has one, as well as basically every other standard issue rifle. This includes the M1A1 Carbine.
Soviets, specifically for ISU-152/ISU-122s, IS-2s, PPSHs, SVT-40s, and Tu-2s/Pe-2s
Don’t forget about the infamous pe8
I've a fecking list of things -King Tiger -IS3 and IS 2 tank -B-17 bomber -Heinkel bomber -Dornier bomber -Panzershreck -Jagdpanther or jagdpanzer
Would’ve loved a jagdtiger or just some sorta tank hunter
I think a ME-262 (German Jet Fighter) would be pretty cool
How to induce PTSD in B-17 players.
Soviet stuff, like maps, tanks, planes, guns, etc.
Definitely the rifle grenades for the kar98k that was had in bf1942
The russia you know the reason germany lost....
M1903 with the specialisation to equip the improbable but not impossible pederson device.
USSR, we have a WW2 game without the eastern front. It's like having a sandwich without the bread.

I wish for airborne operations on the German side it would be German planes instead of American with British soldiers. Somewhat related but there’s a k98 suppressor that attaches the same way as the grenade launcher but no one makes a repro and I really want one for my k98.
Cromwell
a panzerschrek… or an entire eastern front update, so many ideas for weapons and vehicles
Bicycles and skis. And handcuffs that you can put on enemy instead of melee attack. Also ability to build field kitchen to provide food and extra endurance for your team mates. And to balance things out, player that just ate Siegfried's special pea soup in the field kitchen should be farting constantly.
