idea to replace the swastika

[=BLW=Pablo]

I think it's a good idea to replace the swastika, the symbol would be the virtual squadrons

 

all squads registered in the forum, would have a symbol that could be used during online play.

 

what you think about it?

 

forgive me for spelling errors, because I am Brazilian.

I just say let's use the swastika if you can and feel comfortable with it, I don't like all these fake symbols to be honest..

Here we go again...

Before we get discussions about why not using the Hakenkreuz itself or its alternatives first read this topic:

or

In several countries the swastika is not allowed neither its many alternatives.

 

It is what it is unfortunately.

Discussing (again) why not is rather pointless.

We can only accept it.

I know chaps, I know, but I think we should be given a choice if it's allowed in our country.

you most likely will have the choice, inevitably some modder will make a swastika mod, it's one of the certainties in life, death, taxes and swastika mods.

The game is being developed in Russia, which means that they can't have the swastika at all. No option to turn it on or off. It sucks, but I'd rather have a historical inaccuracy than the entire dev team thrown in jail.

...and the discussion on the forum. But I guess you covered it...

It has nothing to do with developers being Russian or some kind a grudge against Germany. Nazi symbols are illegal in Germany, so if you want to sell your game in Germany you have to get rid of swastikas. Its just all about the money and nothing personal.

I'm not saying it's personal (if it was, why would they be making flyable German planes?), I'm saying that they can't do it because the game is being made in Russia, and swastikas are illegal in Russia.

I think the conversation went a little proposal ... 

[Bearcat]

So .. we are done here right?

[Creepermoss]

Nah, we should probably discuss FMs, too....

I haven't seen much of it yet, but I know it's going to suck.

 

And only 72 hour alpha access?!

 

AND NO ME-262?!
