Halfway into its freeweek

It's not bad. RO2/RS was just better. Also fuck all the servers who have supremacy in the rotation.

The only map I ever see Helios getting shot down without AA comands is Resort

This. How have so many people never played a "stand on a spot to capture it" game mode before?

the only fun matches are the ones the commander and SLs get too into it and start rping
those are the best

Some mad pilot that drops you into a firefight while blasting some good songs in local VOIP to scare the VC

>play as a squad

Your squad tends to not have any smoke because all the scouts inevitably end up in the same squad. Same as all the snipers.

red orchestra 2 was a more interesting setting. Vietnam is very dull in comparison

The entire game is decided by whether support throws his smoke and commander calls arty
What's sad is this is basically the series formula. Meat grinder rifle combat is basically inconsequential compared to whether those 3 people do their jobs
It's much better than Insurgency, however, because the capture points aren't single fucking rooms.

>Meat grinder rifle combat is basically inconsequential
t. never unloaded a magazine and 2 nades into a vc ambush by overhearing his voip to save a defense

It's all fun so who the fuck cares. In a way it actually drives in the whole feeling of how pointless one regular rifleman is in the grand scheme of things.

>much better than Insurgency, however, because the capture points aren't single fucking rooms
I don't think we've been playing the same Insurgency, when the points are indoors they are at least house sized, and that's fine because there's less players per match in INS compared to RS2.

No, murdering mutts is great.

I love the inner area of Resort, and also defending the beach as VC, but you never get to play much of it since there's so little capable pilots.

It went on sale multiple times for like 7 bucks.
>dead game
Nigga it still has a a playerbase of a couple thousand. There are multiple full server 24/7. That's not dead.

dlc that they didnt even make is $17

are you talking about all of those cosmetic packs? who the fuck pays for that shit

I think RO2 and RS1 were better because of the weapons. Games like these are a lot more fun when the majority of the team is wielding single shot weapons like bolt actions and semi automatic rifles. It means people value accuracy and cover highly, those that do have fully automatic weapons stand out and are either really influential or are easily picked off depending on how they play (thus, a level of tactical skill is required), etc.

RS2 is fun, but most of the game is people just spraying into the bushes and tree lines and buildings and getting kills by sheer volume of fire. You have to move faster, be twitchy with your mouse (which also leads to more friendly fire) and small cover is next to useless.
It causes idiots to just run at each other until one team eventually wins. RO2's lower intensity of fire made you cautious and patient followed by brief instances of running and action. RS2 is just a constant hail of bullets and dying until the round ends. Machine guns are barely noticeable on the battlefield since everyone is holding a fully automatic assault rifle. Snipers spend most of the match watching their kills get taken because the other plays don't have to be accurate.
The flamethrowers are fun though.

He's probably talking about GAM.
I bought the one with the gas mask because it makes me hard to burn VC with it on.

He is talking about the Green Army Men dlc. When not on sale its 16.99. It was made by modders. I don't know why he is bitching though, because those modders are getting paid for that. And they aren't the first modders the devs have paid. They had a couple map design contests where the winners got prize money and their map in the game.

Its a shame since RS2 did add a lot of fun stuff like the VC gadgets and I love that double barrel shotgun and the ability to swap between slug and buckshot. Also the bush heavy maps allow for some amazing sneaky shit as well.

I've been taking a break from it for awhile.
maybe I'll play a bit this week again.

Well now you can play it any time you want instead of just this week.

if you kill 50 people in a round playing rifleman you've made a significant difference if the game comes down to tickets (and it often does)

not bad just janky and unpolished, typical AA game experience

>Entire game relies around people throwing smoke and coordinating their artillery ults

Wish they'd mix it up a bit

Too busy playing the game dummy.

Go play supremacy or that other game mode.

I admit I'm not that good at the game, definitely not as good as most that play. And I follow the games objectives and I'm not just some shitter that runs head first into every gun fight. But I just don't have fun with the game. Dying in a single hit is pretty boring and frankly annoying almost any time it happens.

Spawning takes forever, walking or running takes forever, aiming feels slow and weird. And the maps aren't very good either, everything just feels like a meat grinder with tiny shitty choke points. And you can so easily die from "nowhere" from some jerk off who only shoots you one time from a bush who you'd have no idea was ever there or ever think to even look there.

Like I said, I'm not good, but I just don't find the game fun at all, I sit there in boredom more than any fun.

>He thinks run and gun doesn't work
LMAO
Try using the ppsh, mat49, or grease gun sometime. You don't need a brain to be good at RS2.

>ez kills
>ruin the game

Shit game
RO2 was better

This senpai

Go back to Farmville, kid.

>Dying in a single hit
You don't really die in a single hit, unless your head is hit.
Usually it takes more than one if you're being shot at with anything that isn't semi-auto or bolt-action.
>Spawning takes forever
The point is to punish you if you die, it's kinda harsh if you're bad and can't really play that much though.
>walking or running takes forever
I'd argue running is a bit too fast, I hope they bring back stamina whenever they add the APC, maybe make it so VC doesn't deplete stamina when running through tunnels?

This should be a copypasta

Shit game
Red Orchestra/Darkest Hour was better

Its really not good. I wish it was

I wish they'd port RO2/RS into RS2 so that they stop being dead

True
Unfortunately they're both dead

It would be quite Кинo :^)

Rising Storm 2 is an absolute heap.

tell me the early access/release date

Its being boycotted because of the paid mods.

Oh and its fucking garbage compared with the original RO

Tried it during the free weekend, felt like poor's man Squad in WW2.
I'm tired of the setting and the game isn't good enough to draw me in I'd rather play Squad.
Also the pricetag is way too high, only 9€ less than Squad, and the playerbase is absolutely low.

I don't know sorry friend, but I hope we can all enjoy it when it comes out.

Nice headcanon you got there.
I feel like no one cares about it, the only complaints I've heard about GAM are about the changes they made to it, not the fact that it's a DLC now.

Red Orchestra was only better because the shitty maps with zero cover to move up forced your entire team to coordinate charges or burn through tickets advancing one by one.

okay devbro, don't rush the game please.

the real reason red orchestra was better was because everyone had bolt actions forcing you to think before pulling the trigger

>a game that's been out for four years has more content than a game that's been out for less than one
woah...

They are doing some fun stuff with gore, but yea, Squad has just so much more content and a much healthier playerbase.
Devs are also revisiting older maps and revamping them visually, Post Scriptum has foliage everywhere that doesn't really blend well with the terrain, neither do they have the manpower to pump out maps. It's a real bummer because the foundation isn't bad.

You're the one going around asking people to play it.

>shitty maps
RO2's maps are infinitesimally better than the shitstains in RS2.

Not really. If you know the map layout you can just spam shots into high traffic areas forcing enemies to sit with their thumbs up their asses due to the retarded blur/shaking mechanic from incoming fire. Moreso if you've got a machine gunner laying down suppressive fire on the only cover/building watching an objective. Suppression is such a retarded mechanic in that game.

Because they're two completely different settings are you stupid?

>durr hurr we give attackers 200 more tickets!

That doesn't fucking help when attackers cannot clear the first goddamn objective. The only time I've ever seen the first point taken, the second point at the church is even HARDER to take due to the retarded default spawn forcing you to run down a wide open street into direct fire. That map is pure cancer and any time it gets picked I switch servers. What the fuck were the devs thinking? WHY ARE RETARDS STILL PICKING THAT MAP?

I like squad better. As long as you hey a competent squad it's actually a lot of fun.

I exclusively play allies because I'm not a shitter. Your tank alone can carry you through 90% of the map. Russians being retarded does not make the map unbalanced.

I tried it and it wasn't good enough to hold my interest because I don't really care about WW2 shooters anymore.
Now I get why there's only 300 people playing if they are all like you and can't even comprehend english when written down I can't fathom how bad it is to communicate in voip.

Squad leads and assault can have smokes too.

Saigon attackers used to always win if defenders didn't retreat to last point before reaching 300 tickets.

That said, I absolutely love the game, though I think Green Man Army paid DLC is like pushing a joke too far, especially with increased TTK. I don't expect it to be played that much, since even RS1 wasn't played nearly as much as RO2 and it's using similar classes locked behind paywall.

Getting shot out in the open where you can somewhat tell where they're shooting from is better than getting shot 3 seconds after spawning by one of 5000 bushes all around you
RO2 had nice long range areas for bolt actions with good spots for snipers, and nice close range room-to-room fighting, often in the same map, RS2 maps don't do either well.

Putting bushes everywhere and removing zoom was an incredibly stupid design decision. In RO2 you could outsnipe a marksman with a bolt action if you were good. Good fucking luck doing that in RS2.

to me it's really fun, but it has some infuriating bugs and game designs that really hamper the otherwise rather immersive experience. pic related

It was perfectly possible to get to the bridges without dying. You had to prone a lot and know the map but it was possible. The bridge itself was harder and wasn't really possible without smoke but still.

>see a wooden gun flail by a window

You're not supposed to cross the bridge. There's a resupply there so the tank can hold it and lock down the crossing.

They're Vietnamese. That's their accents. They're just not good voice actors. But ARVN guy is good.

It's a trash game, sorry shill. I have played since the beta and seen the game evolve over time. Antimatter continued to make the same mistakes over and over and that's why the game is in its current state, dying a slow death, only being held together by mental gymnastics experts such as yourself.

Shouldn't you be ERPing in swuad instead of crying in an RS2 thread right now?

Looting weapons is the funnest

there's been a few times I've ignored bullets landing close by thinking it's just some retarded teammate who will stop shooting at me only for me to get killed and realize it's an enemy with a looted gun

T-34 is practically indestructible to AT fire if you're on the resupply. Panzer is slightly more fragile but you can sit behind the green car to cover your weak spots. If you're getting grenaded your infantry aren't doing their job. They should easily spot anyone approaching the bridge as they push into D and E. The only thing you have to worry about is somebody running back for the PZB if you're in the P4 but that almost never happens in my experience.

It's times like this I really wish these games would include a button to feign death or instantly ragdoll. Imagine actually hiding in a pile of your friend's corpses only to spring up and kill everyone that murdered them as they walk away? It'll give players a reason to really check bodies, maybe even double tap to be sure.

>reason to double tap
You don't shoot the dead? It's actually good practice to, in the heat of the moment enemies can hide pretty well amongst bodies if proned

I mean if the group of bodies is thick enough I'll spare a few rounds, but if the bodies are a bit spread out like a squad's would be and not just in a pile from a destroyed vehicle? Prone is only going to fool color blind people.

I have a better idea, remove the killfeed.
It's unnecessary clutter on the HUD, and gives way too much info that you should get by yourself.
Want to know if you really killed that dude? Double tap and check if there's a body.
Insurgency works that way and it's fine, you don't need to be told you killed someone, it keeps you alert and you won't run like a retard because the game told you that you got the guy shooting at you.

I already double tap often because I'm a sick person.

You'll know because of all the complaints in chat or voip :^)
>this is dumb
Thanks for the input user

I like this idea, but keep the kill feed for team kills. I think it should be implemented with the feign death idea though. You shot the guy, there is a body, but is he really dead? Ask your friendly local flamethrower guy to make sure for you.

Yeah, I don't get why it's still there.
>keep the kill feed for team kills
Sure why not, I don't see an issue with it and that way the user that wants to know when the commander burns half the team will be happy.
>Ask your friendly local flamethrower guy to make sure for you
Neat.

Finally hit level 99 and got my Cavalry hat. The cosmetic grind in this game is real, Sea of Thieves doesn't have shit on it. War is hell.

Communication is "better" but more people are obnoxious.

RS2 players are BF kiddies. If you want teamwork you're better off playing milsims.

I can't believe people were upset about getting boosted. I understand if you don't want leader roles to be deferred to you, but there's literally no statistical difference between a level 1 and level 99

I think I will, thanks

Level 1 me and level 99 me are two completely different players, even coming off 600 hours in RO2. I was already level 90 last Crimis, I was on the mega server but that never happened. I would have felt cheated if I had been accidentally boosted at that point.

I believe they are confusing the need to use "serious" lingo to convey information quickly and efficiently with RP in games that don't need that but you still have people doing it anyway to feel cool.

>That time during the release month when the ppsh was the god gun.

Mega server was literal malware

I heard a rumor that other points besides A exist on Demilitarized Zone.

I really liked the slow death/last stand thing that RO2 had. It made close combat interesting because just getting a killing shot on someone didn't necessarily remove them as a threat and would penalize you if you went rushing past a guy right after shooting him. Something like your idea would bring back a bit of that uncertainty.

I fucking hated most custom servers in Insurgency because they always had the killfeed enabled or some retarded points tracking system that had no purpose.

BF4 is better, RS2 is to clanky for an FPS

>I understand if you don't want leader roles to be deferred to you

This is the real reason I can't play during the free weekend desu. I don't want the responsibility of being the leader whenever I join a squad of level ones.

>3D spotting headless chicken shooter with merry go round objective play
No thanks

There is no better weapon for a GI SL than the M79. It's the perfect distance for spawning people in, you can kill people without LoS, lay down smokes and there are only 6-9 grenades so you don't feel the need to burn through the copious amounts of ammo other classes have to be effective.

I play on a server that doesn't have 3D spotting or minimap

BF4 peaked with the Classic mode, and then DICE didn't have the will to go further and make it the default so I never enjoyed it fully again because no one plays with this mode.
At least they are learning a bit with BF5

So its even worse, ok

Once you go squad lead you can't go back.
I've been playing as SL since RO1 and I don't trust anyone else to do the job at this point.

All of the RO2/RS maps are a shit show when bolt action rifles are replaced by assault rifles.

Deadly.

I know this feeling. I'd rather be playing commander or sneaking around assassinating key players but my knack for staying alive and flanking makes me compelled to play SL, especially compared to how shit the average player is as SL. A good SL can change the tide of battle just as much as a good commander.

wait is that the reason i'm the squad leader all the time? I'm only level 30 or something but I keep getting SL, is it because of my level? that's pretty retarded, especially on the american side when the squad leader should not keep dying and that's exactly what I do because I dont want to be SL

Because they're retards who probably got in because of some youtube when the main draw of Insurgency was the high lethality and minimal hud meant you need to visually confirm kills and always be on your guard.

You either need a crack team with a solid commander to get through it, or a horrible, horrible defending team. I think I've beaten it like 3 or four times.

Apache Snow is a fucking travesty as well, just a bogus steamroll for attackers.

Dong Ha and Mekong are all okay, but due to increased arty spreads compared to the smaller radius that RO2/RS1 had, makes it uncomfortable to play.

Green army men is fun, but charging 15 dollars for the other classes is some bullshit. Also leads to zero commanders in the mode half the time.

Why is it so unbelievable that one user would have a random problem? Whats he supposed to do? Click the server browser better?

>damage model all fucked up because it isn't balanced around 60hp
>reloading dumps the whole mag because we couldn't be bothered with making actual mags instead of ammo pool
No thanks, hardcore servers are only good to farm snipers and piss off everyone in the process.

Yeah lets play a mode that exacerbates most of BF4's problems, if only the BF community didn't have shit taste and ran Classic servers

A few of the points in Push were tiny as hell. Station B was the small room in the station that had little cover but gave mean you could easily stop any defender attempt to take back the point once someone controlled the top part. Revolt B also was just a room and a corrider but once you were capping that point you could set a molotov on the stairs and prevent any defender attempt, or just have an rpg ready at the stairs to spawnkill.

I played a bit as SL, it was fun but no one talks so I don't know if they are okay with the spots I spawn them into, they usually stick to the objective I tell them to gravitate around, so that's that at least.
I'd rather play as a grunt and be nice to the SL than play SL and have absolutely no feedback.

>He's never played Squad
Filled with the most try hards who kick you if you don't larp with them.

Many custom hardcore servers limit 2 sniper and 2 DMR slots per team.
Your other 2 complaints are laughable

Sure a few of the objectives were BS, but most of them were bigger than a single room and you had multiple ways to get into them.
I did, and I still do occasionally, never got into a squad with people acting like this.
I play on EU servers, so maybe that's why?

Why is the green army men thing a paid DLC now? That entire package, including its maps, were all free mods on the workshop a couple of months ago. What the fuck?

It's fun as fuck and good in general.

The only thing that pisses me off is tripwires laziness. A game like this should not have static environments. Nothing takes you out of the game more than seeing a patio umbrella take a rpg hit and remain untouched.

What means larping to you then retard? Actual larpers like Squadops are a minority in the community and actively mocked

Nobody larps in squad. Unless you think pointing out what direction the enemy shooting you from is larping.

I'm pretty sure that's what happened to GOM mutator. TWI implemented the K-50M, and turned the cosmetic changes into DLC, from the mod, which is now dead.

Havent played in a year but i put in about 120 hours and never experienced this. Unless by larping tryhards you mean kicking someone for taking a role and doing absolutely nothing with it wasting a slot.

Was that confirmed or just rumored?
I know owner was a fag and made it pop shit up on the steam browser but no one ever showed the sort of malware it supposedly had.

any gun thats not the AK74, M4/L85 or MG isnt worth using, all 7.62 AK variants are dog shit, G3 has bad sights Fal just gets outshoot by faster firing AK and M4 also has no scope variant, SKS is semi auto with small mag, marksnigger are a waste of a specialist kit, SMGs are also trash

>having to use a mic and have any coordination is larping
lmao go back to BFV

Its worse than RO2

Wish there were more options for rifleman, since it's the class most people play. I don't mean like scopes or bullshit like that. I didn't really have this issue in red orchestra 2 though, not sure why.

I'd probably care more if the game mode had staying power. It's really fun and goofy at first but RS is not meant to function on that level of verticality and lack of proper cover. When you can get shot from literally any angle it becomes a dysfunctional game.

>fucking ammo pool as a negative
Yes. Completely removing ammo and mag management by making it into a pool is a negative.
>entire RS2 plays like shit in comparison
>freeaim
>toggleable bayonet
>toggleable stock
>no shitty melee anim

You need to go back, you clearly enjoy the shitshow that is modern BF more than actual shooters.
If you feel like these aren't valid complaints you probably hate refractor era Battlefield and are what's wrong with this community.
Hopefully DICE sees what's wrong and purges their game from scum like you.
They've already started with the latest BF by removing shit elements, now onto ammo pool.

i feel the same, i've been playing since beta and have like 300 some hours and i just totally burned out on it a few months ago

i've tried to play again but i only last a few minutes before i quit

I don't understand these claims that RO2 is better, it always seems like these complaints come from Wehraboos. I have several hundred hours in RO2, RS and RS2. I've enjoyed them all equally.

Usually comes down to muh bolt actions.

>entire RS2 plays like shit in comparison

Lets start with horrible notworking and stuttering even at 100+ fps, nearly lobby I've been with active chat people are complaining about this. If game can't fix this nothing matters. This is what I mean by it plays like shit, not your autism details.
And don't pretend that RS2 is "an actual shooter". It's another military sim, with military "tactics" baked in.
If you want shooter you play games like quake or unreal tournament.

That's not a gameplay related issue, that's a technical one, and that's funny of you to bring up networking and stuttering while sucking off BF4 at the same time, I hope you remember the launch and the first year of that game and the shitshow it was.
>This is what I mean by it plays like shit
You got technical issues and are blaming the gameplay, got it.
That's not my fucking problem though, I never had these issues and I'm not your personnal tech support.

DEAD NIGGER STORAGE

What did they change? The mortars were a nice idea. Think the update fucked with all the old (and good) maps.

Added squads, rally points, logistics, building shit, building FOBs, roles limited to squads. All the shit you see in PR/Squad. It doesn't work with RO gameplay though and it's completely trash. One of the core strengths that Darkest Hour did extremely well was infantry combat and it had some insanely good infantry focused maps. Unfortunately when milsim fags invaded and this attempt to turn it into discount PR appeared it ruined the mod for absolutely everyone who was a human being and enjoyed what was once a well done mod.
Pic related, the clusterfuck that is an average map on Darkest Hour now. You get people scattered all around the map fighting around FOBs and rally points instead of having people and action focused around objectives.
