As some of you know, 60 years ago today on June 6,1944 thousands of allied soldiers from great britain, canada, and the USA paradroped into, and landed on the beaches of normandy france, in the larges invasion in modern history. This invasion marked the beginning of the end for Germanys war effort, as they were slowly pushed back to Berlin by the allies.
I have decided to attempt to create a game that will try and focuse on the more untold stories of the invasion. We all know about omaha beach, through movies such as saving private Ryan and MOHAA, but I plan to focuse on smaller battles that have gone untold. Omaha wasnt the only beach the allies landed on, I plan on showing the story of the British invasion of Juno beach, and also the american glyder sqaud that glyded into enemy lines. Hopefully I will actually complete this project.
Now for a little information about what I plan to have in the game...
1)several missions following American and British troops.
2)Realistic gameplay (one shot in the right place, and you dead)
3)Will cover the american paraglyders, and the British landing on Juno Beach.
4)challenging gameplay, and stradegy.
5)Realistic weapons.
6)And maybe even one or two squadmates that give you cover (not decided, programming squad AI scares me
)
Just to show you that I have actually started this, I have a wip of a german soldier.
