I do no longer remember how often this was requested by others or me. All I know it's been very often. In my opinion it's already pathetic that they weren't part of the original load out but it's really miserable that we still have to ask for them to this day.
Evidence (wartime photographs) of fighting Axis troops in the Kessel in winter show them in greatcoats. Yes, I know German greatcoats were originally made for temperatures of middle European winters. Still I know from my own experience that wearing a greatcoat over your field tunic allows you to last longer in the snow and the freezing wind.
As RO series always rendered you dead as you soon as you are no longer able to fight, I fairly wonder why Axis reinforcements are not instantly depleted on winter maps. Running around in winter the way Axis are now you won't last for long.
As the Red Army has already a greatcoat model it shouldn't be too hard to model one for the Germans as well.
And no, statements like "It will increase tk rate do not count", haven't you noticed that in summertime maps neither of the teams are wearing greatcoats, both are wearing field tunics. Also tk was part of war and so is part of RO.
There is evidence for their usage in the Kessel, there is community members requesting them, there is no excuse for them not being in the game: Get German greatcoats here!
