    Dunkirk Movie Review [SPOILERS]

    So yesterday I went to see Dunkirk, and as some of you said, the movie was excellent! It definitely had me on the edge of the seat all the time and was definitely stressing :P The effects were great and the RAF scenes were fantastic, probably my favourite part. It was a shame that most...

    To the Devs, Gameplay Expectations

    I know this will be a WWII realism game where teamwork will be vital and all of that, but I would like to know what kind of game are you guys intending to develop. Many of us are somewhat lost or confused as to what kind of gameplay should we expect and should we not. Of course from the...

    In-Game Tactics

    Let's discuss in-game tactics that you wish could happen in-game (TW) that might happen in real life. For example, when playing Project Reality, and we are entering a building or house, most people just rush in without slowing down or doing an angle check* around the door and most of the times...

    BF1 Full "Realism"?

    Yet again, BD42 tries to change gameplay to be more suitable to people like us. In this case, he created a server removing HUD displays (crosshairs, mags, maps, etc.), limiting weapon choices (no more nade spamming?), no kill cams, no notifications, and so on. I know the video is long af, but...

    Server and Friend System

    I'm sure you many of you are aware of PR:SPY or FH2 server trackers that display the servers info. Well I would like to suggest something similar (or the same) for TW to do that would be integrated to the official TW website post-launch. Additionally it would be great to have a system but...

    Sandbags, Barbed Wire, Foxholes/Trenches & Assets

    So I was talking with Ani and we were discussing assets and emplacements for defensive positions since PR and Squad have them but they are not quite realistically implemented.

    Operation Market Garden

    First of all, I know if this map will be featured, it will be made in a future Chapter and that you've probably didn't quite plan it yet. Anyways, if you were to make a map of Operation MG (or any map of this size), it would be great if this map was a very very big map, like 4km x 4km or...

    Running

    Is it possible to know how the running system will work in TW? Is there going to be a bar or something that will let us know how much energy we spent and how much we have left until the character gets tired? Maybe you already have it figured out, but maybe a suggestion would be that there...

    HUD Markings

    So, I know we will have almost no HUD thingies marking up, but what I don't want at all is like in every game that has come out in the last couple of years, where you can see A, B, C in a square or whatever marking where the flags are. None of that, please. Nor would I want to see markings of...
