slowing down the game just a tad would do wonders IMO. right now matches can end in literally 8 minutes.
Slowing the game down a bit would do wonders for enjoyment and match longevity
Suddenly 5 types of weapons might become useful in their intended role.
The closer the game plays to a modern RO2 the better tbh
If you use cover, position or do flanks you are wasting time, tickets and all that for your team. Only viable tactic is to load up on LMG/SMGs and run straight at the enemy proning and bunny hopping.
Slowing down the game (which you can do without doing arbitrary stuff like lengthening spawn time) would definitely make other weapons remotely useful.
Buffing recoil across the board.
Adding jamming to automatic weapons (as of right now there is literally zero drawbacks to a lot of autos as they can kill to the max average engage range easily)
slowing movement speed slightly
Dumping jump and prone perks.
removing ADS for LMGs (not automatic rifles like BAR/FG42)
literally just tweeking number values in a cfg file.
I just want a game like: PS, HLL, RO but without walking simulator element.
Something in between the 2-3 hour long matches of PS or HLL and frenetic brain dead, boring calladooty gameplay. yeah for sure.
What I thought this game was going for but now I’m not so sure. War Thunder took tank warfare in a much more “ReAlIStIc” direction than WOT, for example. Kinda thought that same archetypical concept was being applied here.
Walking sim, bushwookiee, and bad performance
The staple of MilSim games in the current day
RO, RO2, and RS were perfect
And this game is so close to greatness if they can get closer to those three
In the ideal world we would have Planetside kind of “matches”. Well, I can dream.
CoD fans shouting offensive stuff in 3, 2, 1…
original RO was the best IMO. RO2 and RS progressively got more “accessible”
RO was fast paced without diminishing thoughtful gameplay.
I am biased as I was an internal tester for the original RO though.
Fuck 'em
CoD rejects can eat shit
By the time I actually got into PC gaming it was nearing the end of RO2’s life cycle so I sadly never got to play the original Red Orchestra.
Lucky you, I know RO only from videos. I started playing games too late.
The Darkest Hour mod on Steam I think still has some player. It’s just got a different feel to it.
And they’re still updating that bad boi constantly. It’s SO much different than I remember, just reinstalled last week.
The developers of the game were spawn camping hard and I called them douche bags and got banned from their mod. (had machine guns pointing into the spawn and were just mowing people down the instant they spawned.)
Not true at all, I’ve recently found much success in the way of suicide-bombing.
oh yeah I forgot, running in with det packs with a mouse macro.
this game’s meta is (chef’s kiss)
I’ve been just as bad just by mashing G or N to the same effect as a macro.
My tactic lately on defense is “if there’s a moderate chance the enemy can kill me, toss an explosive at them”
Either I shoot them and run away, they shoot me and explode, I shoot them and explode, or we both explode. Any way with infinite respawns on defense I win.
Why I suggested adding explosive prep time.
