As "hardcore" as ARMA2?

[Dr.Atkins]

When it comes to being psychologically most realistic I have played, RnL wins. The localized voice, zero hud and no score system makes it feel less as a game to me =).

+1

It is the immersion that makes some games realistic.
And that localized voice chat is just spot on:
YouTube - RnL - Resistance & Liberation - POW - Prisoner of War - Part 2

I'll stop arguing now or else the mods will start to rain down infractions upon us.

That's true, so yeah let's stop here.

I agree with RnL having great body awareness etc. Problem was or is that many of the (major) animations are bugged, which kinda destroys that feeling again to some extent.

Yes indeed, infact i own a copy of that game since release, brilliant ww1 air-combat simulator.

Sure is Buddy, and I've just pre-ordered the Handley Page 0/400 Bomber and can't wait for the the dynamic campaign they are releasing next year

hmmm - sort of.
I think the voice carries too far, so you could be heard from an unrealistically long distance so a lot of the time you were better off using text. You can't kinda whisper to a guy next to you without an enemy hearing that whisper clearly from 50 yards away - but i guess that's limitation you can't get over.

But i do love RnL, thou for me it would be better if it was easternfront, more interesting locales and to facilitate bolt vs bolt.

That is true as well. So if you imagine yourself as an epileptic-soldier whose rifle stutters a lot then u might get immersed again
