Default sterile looking soldiers

i understand that the current models are placeholders and haven't been detailed, but i just want to state that when you do finalize them, make sure they don't look like figurines fresh out of a paint factory.

and in that regard, please also include things like zeltbahn and natural camouflage.

so many times i see ww2 games with the basic soldier. jackboots, grey uniform.

but where's the variety? short boots with gaitors, camo smocks, helmet covers, ponchos, quilted jackets, leaves, twigs, overoat, etc.

no more clean soldiers please. thank you. some examples:

I didn't catch much on the dirty soldiers...

But I think his other point was, variety in uniforms.
For example, players spawning with different head wear, or boots.

Yea after I saw the pictures of the uniforms I was kinda guessing that but "sterile" threw me off. Sorry bout that 213. Uniform variety is a good idea but it may take unneeded time away from development. And I hate when certain camo is favorited. The random spawning camo like is ost is a pretty good system. Just do that automatically with specific classes (sniper with a variety of spawning camos specific to sniper class).

Rolled sleeves!

Felt boots!

But seriously yes variety is good as long as it stays realistic.
