theres so many design failures in it
just the layin down system gets me killed a lot for example
when im not parallel to a wall or too close to it i cannot lay down , so i run forward , try to get in cover and cant get myself into there because i cannot prone there.i have to make a step back and forth and to the side and *killed*
.its not even realistic because if it was i could just smack my body against a wall in any way i wanted , needing cover.
the aiming system was good as it was in ro1.
some places ur weapon was stabilized by putting it on without a special move.now when i try to peek around a corner or over a wall the gun so often starts hopping around , its unnerving and then i get killed because obviously the enemy already saw me before when i look again.even when i blindshoot my arm will just get shot off literally and i have nearly no chance hitting anybody.
people can snipe with a lot of guns better than with the actual sniper rifle
i get killed more often by anti tank guns or even a ppsh than by a sniperbullet.that wasnt the fact in ro1.
RO1 and DH were so nice because they were simple and easy to play and the action took place on the battlefield.Now in Ro2 the first enemy always is your own behavior with the environment and a big part of the time you die because you just cannot manage how to place yourself.
I think the player should be able to control the game and not the game control the player , but that is what TWI made it like !
the spawning at SL is painful to me a lot too.
so i select spawn at sl , ill get set not behind or just beside my sl but in the room the group may just be assaulting right now.
so i spawn into a friends nade and die and he gets a teamkill - nothing but stupid.
the cannot spawn bug is one of the finest either
have to select another class = -2 suicide. lol
im playing RO since 2006 and i feel like having a right complaining about this ! its all a fact and im sure this thing will die quick.it looks nice and shiny and the sound is good but inside the mechanics and gameplay is rotten and seems like an early beta or worse.
oh and to all the "give it time to get bugfree" people : have fun waiting , some minor stuff will be done but the game itself is just a litl fracture to what RO1 gave me in fun and wont be good at all if it isnt completely redesigned.
i posted this in another thread though , but i think maybe im better seen here.
yeah twi worked hard on it .. maybe .. but maybe you guys should have taken lesser journeys around and looking how places looked and shooting guns but work on the actual game a bit
im pretty not satisfied with it and i think a lot of veterans from the early RO1 days are on my side.
