Bugs. Lots of them. Terrible glitchy animations, then a tank shell ruining the animation and everything is dead and bodies are glitching inside each other. Itll look ugly.

that video alone is enough for me to buy dow2
Someone didn't play DoW2.
Anyway historically bayonets were rarely used, with most soldiers preferring to hit with the rifle stock instead. Read "On Killing" by Lt. Col. Dave Grossman.

Many of the Mosin Nagants had a permanently attached folding bayonet. Having a bayonet equipped has a negative effect on accuracy due to weight distribution.

Good luck finding a game. If the game wasn't basically dead after Relic gave up support I might still play it.

Even in WW1, bayonet induced casualties were really low to be utterly insignificant. Sharpen spades were preferred if it came to it.Imagine using Oorah with eight conscripts squads all armed with spades killing the german infantry and throwing molotovs in every house. Seems glorious to me.
The bayonet is more of a 'morale' symbol (symbol of attack and close combat). It's a decoration, more useful for opening cans.

The symbol of the attacking soviet soldier to me in 1944 is the submachinegun, not the rifle. Half to one third of soviet combat troops in their formations were outfitted like this by then.
Yeah, Soviet artists and Russian filmmakers think this way too. :-p

Map is too small and compressed, add that to the game and you wil never pull a trigger in this game....True, if they want to add it they must extend the range of fighting or make all weapons more letha. If they add bayonets without changing regular combat then bayonets would become OP and the new meta is core infantry spam.
For that to work need bigger maps and change all combat mechanics... imagine you charging the enemy emptying the clips on you and no body dies
idea is great but can´t be done on this game

Are those shock troops?
And I thought that I was the only one who can imagine charging with spades and throwing molotovs rioters style.
