RS Why do the Japanese not use leaf camoflage on Guadalcanal?

[Borge]

A simple question. Considering it is night, they're in a jungle and Japanese are on the offensive you would think it would be by far the most appropriate map for the Japanese to use the leaf camouflage that is used on Hanto. Why is this not the case?

US on the defensive is incredibly hard to spot in the dense foilage and bushes, but the standard Japanese brown uniform stands out quite a bit.

I seeeeeee you!

I'd be happy if they just reduced muzzle flashes a bit.

It could help, as it is now I have only played a single game in the beta, where we happened to have excellent communication, where the IJA won on Guadalcanal.
Usually they get stuck on C and get absolutely slaughtered.

I think they should make guadalcanal darker and equip sls and tls with flare guns

They should remove Guadalcanal from the game and replace it with DE_Dust.

Still curious on why this is the case, and whether it'll change.

PLEASE change it !!! The Japanese Hero stands out like a litt christmas tree on that map.

Every time I spawn on my idiot of a squad leader, I hope to see this:
One
Two

Instead of, you know, neon khaki power rangers.

Pssh. You know it would be De_Dust2!

Currently Guadalcanal is one of my least favorite maps. I can really only play the game as a Japanese mortarman.
