Re: Finnish stuff
 
I agree with Skorz. The Finns were very intruiging during WW2, and I for 1 appreciate the ferocity in which they fought.

The 109 and Junkers JU-88A would just need a simple reskin, and Skorz has provided pics of other Finnish weapons (anti-tank rifles, LMG's, etc.).

I realize it may not be priority to the team, but definately somethign for the future.

JEE! me want more finnish weapons too :D

Re: Finnish stuff
 
This was the most appropriate existing topic I could find, conserning the following issue..

What the hell has happened to Finnish insignia on vehicles!? I just played Karelia, and there were no symbols or markings whatsoever on Finnish vehicles! The Finnish swastika has NOTHING to do with nazism. Goddamn. That was the last bit of Finnish there was even left on "Finnish" troops. At least the vehicles were correct.. Damn, you might aswell remove the whole country from the mod. Currently it's a discrace to Finnish troops. I know it's just a game, but removing those symbols is the same as directly linking Finland to Nazism. Finland was using the symbol before the NAZI party was found, and has in no way any links to it, he who believes otherwise is a fool.

edit:

Sigh.. wrong area. Well, I guess it doesn't really matter. All I want is an answer from the devs.

Re: Finnish stuff
 
A swastica is a swastica and they are illegal in Germany, no matter how you use them or what you draw them on.

Re: Finnish stuff
 
I'd rather see the Italians, and French and more Polish stuff before they add the Finns.

you could have made a new thread instead of bumping this ancient one. It's only annoying when people make new threads about stupid things like the maus and adding the m16 to FH; your topic is good though :(

Re: Finnish stuff
 
Finnish troops did defended our country very well, when Soviet union tried to come finland

Finnish troops fight much more than for example Polish....

I Just wonder why yu don't make Finnish troops to this Awesome mod

And last Big battle in Europe was Tali-Ihantala 1944 were Finnish forces defended our country against huge number of soviet tanks, planes and troops


i'm sorry that my english is very bad :(

MkH^ March 18th, 2004 05:30 AM

Re: Finnish stuff
 
Yeah, I thought of that option too, but since this isn't such big thing to anyone but us Finns and somewhat relevant I decided to lift this topic. I would have probably just got flamed.

Re: Finnish stuff
 
Finnish voices are coming, probably already in 0.62.

Jagd March 18th, 2004 02:05 PM

Re: Finnish stuff
 
Yeah the Finns had some incredible Aces in WW2, I'd love to see some more maps set up there in Finland.

MkH^ March 18th, 2004 04:01 PM

Re: Finnish stuff
 
Yes, so would I, but unfortunately we probably won't be seeing any more Finnish maps anytime soon, since Subbo left (?) the team. Finns played a huge role in 2nd world war, so it would in my opinion be justified to put them on top priority list, but I guess the team has other things in their minds for upcoming patches.

But in the name of dear loving God, add the correct insignia or just remove the whole country from the game!
