From what I have seen the German skins have had most of the markings removed as it is now a commercial venture and including them would limit where the product could be sold and also just may offend some.

What I am wondering is, will we be allowed to post skins with realistic insignia on these boards?

should be able to, we've all done it for every other release, this should be no different as it becomes personal preference. if we're not allowed to release em here, im sure other places will release them.

im sure it wont be a problem, it shouldnt be, its not copyrighted if you want to add on to default models. as waldo and kell said

i think it will still be allowed, this is no german board, and no german laws are here, so its still allowed (i think)

people do this kind of thing for cs and its retail, i don't see why we can't for dod.

It even would be allowed if you´re on German ground. Nobody really cares about that. If I want Waffen SS soldiers in my DoD, then because of historical reasons and not because I´m trying to glorify the deeds of the Waffen SS.

Oh by the way, I think using Wehrmacht troops is way better anyway, because it was wrong before anyway to have mixed Wehrmacht and Waffen SS troops fighting together.

agreed

agreed as well.

But obviously with 1.0 we can have different player models for different maps. Having Heer on some and Waffen SS on others would be good :cool:

it is realistic. i think these are Heer soldiers wearing a camo-parkas. not only the WaffenSS was issued with camoflage uniforms.

You are correct, I should have said SS insignia.

you got a point there :D

Yeah, I hope some people will add some markings and such to helmets and stuff.

It's a shame other countries aren't allowed to display those old symbols, although I kind of understand.

I seem to remember a Dev team member saying to check MSA for markings and such when he was asked about those symbols. So I think they'll still allow them to be released here.
