New gaming mode “Armored Train”, and the addition of “Berlin” on Playstation 4 and Xbox One

oh well

You control the anti-aircraft gun. The escort side of the train can also use the tank turret, and howitzer in the tower, in the train.

The movement of the train is automatic. It moves if there are more escort soldiers on its platforms and will stop abruptly if it is captured by the enemy team.

The new train mode let me remember my time of playing this community map of RO2.
In RO2, this is a pretty interesting and creative map. Though with serious control and unable to fit AI and lots of players issues. (AI pathfinding on train is horrible, also train can not fit so many players or get pushed out of the train).
Overall I am very exciting of this new mode.

PS: As a public transport fan, Train, or Railtransit is the most inflexible and extreme vulnerable way of transport. Road and Air is much more flexible from outside vandalism.
Several centimeters deformation of track or some piece of metals can derail a whole train. Let alone switches, signals, catenary, and so on.


(I almost trapped in a serious metro incident before.)

Oh Keofox, put your leg out, so i may hump it, this is so cool, Grats to the team, and yourself, bravo

peharps we get assault maps where train is on attacking (or defending) team, playing role of supporting fire (while your AI bunnies rush towards the point), every time point gets capped, the train moves foward a bit

Very good - Seelow Heights!

Not just ruins and trash but wide areas where other tactics can be used to defeat the enemy!

Feared that this would not be implemented. I wanted this. Thanks.

this looks so cool, very exciting

Excellent addition devs, Seelow Heights will make for balance to the heavily urban maps of Berlin.

My opinion on the armored train? It’s gonna cause a lot of toxic players quitting because they couldn’t get a gunner seat…

If you want pve play berlin as russians and the axis lobby is all bots.

I had not even started a Moscow/Berlin campaign yet, and i play with bots most the time in Tunisia Axis anyway, as in on my team, allies always 5-6 real people, to axis 3-4 etc :stuck_out_tongue:
But this train, man i so tempted to try it, but everyone will be playing it to death for a bit, so more bots in Tunisia for me, hopefully they put it in each campaign

I welcome anything new that freshens the gameplay, even if it is something like Payload from Team Fortress 2. I don’t want this game to end up like Warthunder with only a variety of domination modes being the only thing in the game - maps feel samey despite beautiful and varied terrain due to balancing constraints on making a map with 3 points and corridors leading to the cap from each side, and most players feel cramped due to everyone converging on caps with rest of the map being empty and tactically irrelevant barring few flankers.

The more modes we get that deviate from standard King of the Hill/Domination, even if it’s gimmicky the better.

I got idea that also demolition mode variant could be possible incorporating this moving train. One team must blow up the rails, other team must stop them.

Not anymore.

For sure, so much personal just for our security!

I’m looking forward to read about the new train issues in your rant posts. :smiley:

nah just another map set that i will quit instantly

Jesus sry for saying this but this mode is trash for attackers (Germans). Even bigger trash than that destruction mode. After 6 games no matter how good team you get if both sides have equally skilled players the results are always the same - defeat for the attackers. Can’t build rps at all as an attacker (at least useful ones). That’s first. Second bots are too stupid to climb on the train, so most of your squad members are outside casually walking and dying (especially if the train is on the move). Third the train is literally pushing into the enemy so basically Soviets are spawning infornt of it (can build rps that are useful) while Germans without being able to build rps are spawning far behind.
