Anyone notice the lack of diversity of weapons in the demo??? All of the soldiers I've seen have either thompsons or garands... And why is Powell holding a garand?

Most US soldiers wielded garands, what do you want them to have?

Springfield is in, so is Garand, BAR, and .30 cal MG, I believe.

Most American officers carried either a Thompson or a Carbine. It was pretty rare to see one with a garand. I haven't seen a carbine in game though.

I´m not sure the carbine will be in the game if there were none in the video.

lol, true that.......

the M1 was accurate to approximately 460 yards. on the other hand, the Gewehr 98k was accurate beyond 840 meters. M1 Garand was not as good as the Springfield (accurate up to 600 meters), i dont know why the allies sacrificed accuracy for ROF... doesnt make much sense

Yes, carbine is gonna be in game. All the weapons have been announced. Plus, I dont think weapons like the Carbine and BAR were modelled then. Cuz nobody on the beach had 'em.

Thanks Koshi, thats cool......

did the m1 carbine fire semi auto or full?

Theres gonna be 24 weapons in the game including m1 carbines,m1 garands,mp-40smgs,sticky bombs,panzerschrech,bazooka,bar,fg 42,broning shotgun,flamethrower,springfield 03 sniper,kar 98-sniper,thompson smgs,mark 2 frag gernade,steilhandgranate,m7 gernade launcher,molotov cocktail,colt.45,walther p38,webley and scott caliber (silenced),mauser kar 98k,.0 CAL.M1919A4,.50 CAL.MACHINE GUN,maschinegewehr 42 thats all the guns. did you know anyone could go in a pawn shop in the 1930s and could get a thompson sub machine gun for $30

Accuracy isnt always a winner. Being able to put down a large amount of firepower faster then the enemy will most certainly win you a battle. And seeing combat is pretty much always within 1000 metres (you rarely see 2 sides fighting a battle outside of 1000m ) I think the Allies chose wisely. Faster ROF will have the enemies heads down while your troops can advance on them. Sure the 98k was more accurate over longer distances but I'd much prefer faster firing and fairly accurate over medium distances (where most fighting takes place) over slow firing weapons that have good accuracy over longer distances.
