Commando vickers k....

[Miller786]

Im bitterly disappointed to see that the developers are so lazy that they decided to recycle a lewis gun model instead of making a proper one for the vickers k. Also there have been no steps taken to get rid of the annoying sharpening filter that makes the game look just downright ugly. The game is basically dead already yet the developers refuse listen to complaints ongoing since release, i will be sure to keep this in mind when you release your next dlc...

You do realise there wasn't a Lewis gun model in the game until the Commandos arrived? I think the Devs just misidentified the gun.

Actually, that mistake must be on me.
The Vickers K as it appeared modeled ingame (apparently a Lewis actually) was made before release but went unused.

When we decided to expand the solo campaign's commandos for this brigade, we've used the existing "Vickers K" model ... yet I didn't double check.
I might have mistaken the two of them when I did the model specs back then, although I picked the right one for our artist to draw on the unit card and weapon model.

I'll see what can be done about it.

Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa ...

edit: couldnt see previous reply
I appreciate the reply and hope something can be done about it.
What can you tell me about that sharpening filter instead?

i would expect a decent company with some respect for their customers to at least say something but no, nothing.

Just check the post above yours ...

No problem, you could still use the Lewis model by given it to the 30 Assault unit or something. I think the Royal Navy still used the Lewis by 1944.

A bit of a flip out for a simple model error wouldn't you say? Modeling has never been Eugen's strong suit for sure, there are still a plethora of units in Wargame Red Dragon that have SMG's on their stat card but are modeled with bolt action rifles etc.

But overall I'm very pleased with the DLC and in general with how Eugen has been handling things recently. All the DLC divisions have very clearly defined and unique playstyles, we've been given a roadmap for free updates and content, players are starting to come back now (if even only temporarily) with 500+ players on today right now at 1-2 PM on a weekday, haven't seen that kind of numbers since well release.

I have to say, im a commando fanboy and I didnt get that upset over the vickers K/GO model ^^

Glad that it is noticed though.

(though, I did bump my months old post in the bug area)

Oh thats nothing, if i were to get really upset i would probably complain about commandos having thompson m1a1s instead of 1928s and paratroopers having sten mkIIs instead of sten MkVs among other things

But that is all secondary compared to the blasted sharpening filter that the developers ignore...

If you're doing some model corrections, the Panzer IVJ doesn't have its return rollers.

Keep the Lewis but add the Vickers K. Don't replace the Lewis gun!

Too late: the Vickers K "Land Version" is in the work, it will replace the Lewis to fit the weapon panel.

What will happen to the Lewis then? Will it be sent back to model limbo, or added to another unit?

What will happen to the Lewis then?

Shelved for potential future use ...

Some day the home guard will get a division.
