So the Americans have been announced. As it seems, there will be the possibility to match Americans and Soviets into one team. I´d like to have a poll on this, to see how many people are for that or against that.
Personally I think it´s silly and doesn´t fit a game with a historic content. In fact it destroys the atmosphere of the game.
Please give your opinions about this.
Poll: USA + Soviets in one team?

I eventually want to see Germans and Japanese fighting US and Soviets on a snow map. I'd be down for having a dream match ww2 game in multiplayer in all honesty.

no thanks. keep coh at least slighty historically accurate!
i defs be inclined to say yes if there was like 6+ nations in the game, then i'd love to see all their weird matchups. albeit, it'd be a fucking nightmare to balance.

Don't forget the brits and italians. If anything I'm bummed that there is another german faction. We could have had a more unique and less armor reliant axis force

Italian partisans would be a cool faction. they'd match up nicely with all german factions

next ex-pack will probably be Desert Rats vs Afrika Korps for a third flavour of the reich!

Unfortunatly they can't really just make africa armies. The equipment won't be advanced enough to take on the stuff we already have in game. That doesn't mean we won't see the desert rats call-in in a brit faction though.

My vote is no. Having Soviets and Americans fight side by side on the western front is silly and it ruins the immersion for me.
But I suppose it's the natural way of things. A lot of gaming franchises are throwing away authenticity for more nonsensical cool stuff these days. Just look at the CoD and battlefield series.
I think it's a bit silly that they are going to allow Americans + Soviets vs Germans in automatch, but no mirror matches or allies+axis vs allies+axis. I mean, why go halfway like that? The argument for authenticity already went out the window with soviets+americans on the same team. Why not just go all the way?

Well just play 1 vs 1 and it will be immersive and authentic 
I really could care less that it is unrealistic as long it isn't in Theater of war or campaign, however, I'm concerned with the balance.
It's a video game not a movie or documentary, honestly who cares.
If you care that much then don't play it, no one is stopping you. I'm sure Relic will have an option to allow you guys to remain in each different front and not force you to play against a faction that takes place in another front. If you guys want to see that option implemented, then don't scream at Relic by calling them names.
I think it will be good for the game and the series as a whole. It will encourage more people to play the game and we will have more active players.

I have a huge problem with historical inaccuracy- immersive? pardon me! - particularly given the Relic approach to CoH2, which was committed to tell a story......which remains unfinished.
The Pacific Front was a clearer way forward - or else late NW Europe campaign......or even Africa........but not this daft mix n match
And as for balance(((shudders)))

Interesting.
The poll so far is showing that, at least on coh2.org, That the majority of people are, as you would imagine, perfectly happy with it.
Seems that the amount of threads and posts against US and Sov's on the same team is far larger than you would think for such an opinion held by so few.
It as if the few who do not like such a thing have posted and re-posted their feelings on the matter over and over, ignoring all others as they try to get their point across, which it has been.
TBH its like watching Commando and thinking its unrealistic because Bennetts' (fuck you Bennett!) chain male vest wouldn't have allowed that pipe to go through is chest like that (let of some steam Bennett, hilarious), when the whole film is ridiculous (and super awesome at the same time).

The reason why they won't do balance is because Japan would be such an awful and gimmicky faction.
