Correct flag

[Aleksander]

Hi all!

I know this is a small thing. But anyways. I noticed you were using this pattern of the flag in the game:

Actually the flag they used (1923-1955) was this:

... and what's the difference?

[Tankbuster]

The hammer + sickle look a bit shrunk.

[GodlikeDennis]

What an incredibly important and potentially gamebreaking detail...

Alexander no offense but do you know what "Dipfeleschisser (german/badisch)" is?

[Killar]

Well the flag does look different. But this mod and coh in general is not to show history in detail. As long as the flag is recognizable as soviets then its good.

[Seeme]

Lol at least its better then spam.

The difference from the one they use is the sickle goes farther in the top, the hammer stick goes slightly above the hammer,l and the sickle on blade on the bottom goes past the handle on the back.

Hammer and sickle is too small on the ingame flags anyway. I'd be in favour of dropping the 'national' flag in favour of something a little more CoH, like the Star in a circle for the US, RAF style Roundel for the Brits, Iron Cross warflag for the Germans. I'd probably use a variation of the Red Army flag with a small hammer and sickle in the centre.

A common allied logo for COH seems to be the circle around the symbol. I'd say put the soviet Sickle and Hammer inside of a circle or star in the middle of the flag tbh

No need to be sarcastic  . Hes just pointing out a small thing he happened to have noticed and maybe other ppl missed it.

New stuff for soviets:

Hey Burro, if you change the flag, remember to change these too .

Something I made in less than 1 Minute.

This is the concept I was speaking of. Maybe add a little star on the cross inbetween the sickle/hammer

[BurroDiablo]

I was thinking of something like this, a simple variation of the Red Army flag



In game alpha texture -



We don't need to change the little way-point flags, they'll do fine

[Tankbuster]

I like Burro's one.

[Killar]

Do we have to change it at all?
