Why?

Now you know they are swastikas. What stops you from removing the signature or edit it?

You can keep the Nazi swastika out of the mod for all I care. But have the justice and include the legal (according to german law) symbols of the finnish army when and if this mod ever gets so far.

This Flippy vs Dev team fight have been on before, it is not a new thing. And what am I and other finnish FH2 players offered instead of our correct LEGAL symbols? A modern finnish roundel...

 ::)

Ah yes but I already forgot. We finns were just terrible at choosing our symbols, which Hitler didnt even think about before we had adapted our swastikas.

So following the law (link to wikipedia page in homer_jay's post) means that indeed, it would be _legal_ for FH2 to have finnish symbols in. But naturally, that will never happen.

Personally I think that eastern front without Scythe and hammer would be "incomplete" in some way, but I feel the same about swastikas (don't get me wrong, both symbols are offending for me, unless they are used to portray something historic).

Another thing is that Finnish swastika is not a nazi symbol, but I believe Flippy stated that countless times.

Agreed!  +1 rep....Oh wait.......

+1 rep from me too. Make it into virtual cookies and handshakes.

It's because 98% of population are so freaking thick they do not know the difference between nazi and finnish swastikas.

And Lightning, what if we had no german players nor devs, instead we had players in Hungary, Latvia and Lithuania? Would that make any difference?

Of course not, I know the answer without hearing it.

Pffft...

Lithuania...who?

No, flippy, no finnish swastikas, you guys were terrible to choose your symbol, no ofence

OK Now THAT is OFFENDING. I am seriously offended by this now.

Not only for not giving a shit about those countries in which the symbols are banned, but also for mocking us finns for symbols we chose WAY BEFORE HITLER EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT IT. (Yes, intended caps lock abuse).

Never been more red towards you Lobo, and I held you in respect, before.

You can bet your life the soviets will proudly wave the Scythe and Hammer glorious banner and The International will sound in some radio.

1) Legal reason: because it's not banned in any country, you can see aswell Rising Sun flags in this mod because such flag is not banned at Japan or any other place, so no, evilness of their owners is not the reason to add or not a flag in the mod.

2) Philosophic reason: Scythe and Hammer is the symbol of worker class, period, not the weird symbol of a group of psycho assassins devoted to exterminate any poor soul that didn't accomplish their antropometric obsessions. Did Stalin and other monsters waved it?, for sure, but was also waved for those who were killed so we have now a good life. Swastikas in the other hand was adopted by the nazi scum from the very start and is the symbol of a hateful, racist and genocide ideology, no ifs ands or buts about it.

OH OKAY!

So that means us finns can have our swastikas in our armoured vehicles and airforce? Thanks Lobo!  ;D

EDIT: Didnt Thorondor just say Soviet symbols are banned for example in Lithuania? So... there you have it. They are banned _somewhere_, thus violating their laws. We cant have them now.

Well, we will see when the Soviets are in if there will be Scythes and Hammers around...

And what comes to acting, I do believe I would do great in hollywood.

But what goes to swastikas, because of the silly rules, others must suffer. Bullcrap.  :-X

This message was very hard to read. But I managed to get through it:

i have had this in my mind for since... 2 days, its an idea on how to make the gameplay even more realistic.

Wilco


Quote
*to start i'd definitly like to see all first person view animations also in real-time, for example, the fixing of the rifle-grenadelauncher and munution is beautifully animated when you do it yourself, but if you see someone else doing it, its just the hand touching the barrel, and thats it.

That would be a nice touch, but I dont find this necessary. I personally dont watch others whatever they do, its a detail which can be looked through fingers imho. Would be nice to have, but nothing we would actually benefit greatly from.

Quote
*then there are the unusable vehicles, if you put an useable opel truck beside a non-usable one you see no diffrence, to see that diffrence you will have to throw a bomb/grenade/shoot a grenade/ and watch wich one will explode. the useable one does, i think its not very realistic when i can hide my panzer behind an opel truck just because i cant use it, i think all vehicles should be explosive!

You CAN see the difference between statics and vehicles. Statics got shadows and other light settings affecting on them.

Quote
*in the heat of battle it might be that you stand in front of your squad leader, who suddenly screams incoming, i would nearly believe that i would get a bomb on my head, if it wasnt the dry figure in front of me who doesnt do anything to simulate what he actually said, off course i know you cant have moving mouhs or something, but a sudden move of the head, look to the sky, and a pointing finger would be nice.

Sure, it would be cool to have the slight soldier model animations, it would increase a lot of immersion. But again, how many actually ever really paid that much attenttion to the hand signals what the soldiers had in BF42?

Quote
* this is one i came up with for no reason, i think it would be great if there was a short "greet" animation when you pass an officer/ someone higher in rank. for the germans it could be the "greet", but just a smal one, and not correctly performed since its a battle. and for the allies, you know the regular hand-beside the head greeting.

It is supposed to be heat of the battle, you dont usually greet any officers during battles because it might give out high ranking officers to enemy snipers and such. Besides, in the heat of battle, I really doubt it really mattered if you greeted someone with the nazi salute or not because there was so much hot lead coming at you, trying to murder you. I personally see no real point in this, except for Machinima purposes.

Quote
* and last but not least, a point about the iron cross. its not historically correct saying the germans used the iron cross in their flag, it can even occur people may start thinking the german military used the iron cross as their sign! and you can say what you want,if you claim to be historically accurate, and make a game thats set in world war 2, and you can fight on the german side, its not facist anymore to wonder why there aren't any hakenkreuzes in the game, since you actually can play the germans, who HAD hakenkreuzes. and about offending, well, i understand that, even though i wouldnt play this game if i had a hakenkreuz/swastika trauma, but i repect people who do so. so instead of removing it completely, there could be an option to switch between historically correct, and user friendly.
thanks for your time.

Swastikas arent used in FH2, for whatever fucked up reason (You read me right...). Yet they will surely use the Scythe and Hammer of Soviet Union, even thought in some countries it is still as touchy subject as the Nazi Swastika is for Germany. I personally think its alright theres just the Iron Cross replacing the Swastika, but while FH2 is very historically accurate, it is a shame there wont be SS nor Swastika symbols in their correct places.

Yeah I support this idea too. How many times have you been flanked just because you cant look around properly?
