You know you're addicted to RO when...




You tell you're friend that it would be cool to mount an MG34 on the roof of his car while you are seriously explaining how it could be possible to chop off the roof and the advantages of the MG34's single fire to save ammo....

You scream out No retreat or Need backup in Russian or German during paintball or airsoft (while being outside of russia or germany obviously)

You consider buying a mosin or kar98 when you never herd of them before RO...

you add more ram to you're pc JUST For RO

You upgrade you're computer JUST for RO

You walk in a building and you automatically look for positions you can take that will allow you to shoot down anyone getting in without exposing yourself too much


Now for the obvious

When you know all them WW2 Guns from when they were produced, what kind of ammo it takes...

When you Become a senior forum member within a few weeks.

[Arto1990]

i pretend i have a bolt action rifle with a stick

 

[=GG= Mr Moe]

All soooo true

 

[SchutzeSepp]

-when you ruin war movies, by feeling the need to explain eveybody why the tiger in saving private ryan is fake

-you hear the russian voice commands in your head all the time

-you check the forums 5 times a day to see af any updates are released

-you lose friends because you can't stop telling them all the adventures you had in RO

-you suddenly notice your baby can not only talk and walk, but he also just got his drivers licence and seems alot bigger than the last time you really looked at him

-you think call of duty players need help, not you

-you concidder placing an RO sticker on your car

-you talk in voice chat language: "honey, will you do the laundry?" "v-2-1, v-5-3, v-5-1"

You take up two parking slots, so you can angle your Subaru optimally.

LOL,

There's a blown out Tank not far from where I live, I've climbed up on it to measure the armor plating, just to make sure they got it right !

 

[Mr. Cheese]

Although a mild one, I now use "ACHTUNG, SHAMBEH BAMBEH" in all games to describe explosives being planted or thrown

 

[dogbadger]

You open your car sunroof and stick your head out- to become more aware of where the people are in the high-street

 

[bloodypotato]

You tell you're friends how awesome it was when you hipshot a guy with a boltie from thirty feet away.

You watch the loading screens when waiting for the maps.

 

[Jhaxavier]

...when CoD2 kiddies fall like flies in the face of your Uber-Rifleman skillz

When you get excited when you hear the words "Caucasus" or "Stalingrad" or "Berezina" xD

When you find every example of hip shooting in war movies very bothering.

 

[Sgt._Geist]

I gotta say.. since 1.0 of the mod and up... Ive used, and still use frequently all the german voice commands IRL... LMAO!!!

Long live RO!!!

 

[WickedPenguin]

- ...when your wife knows the names of people you play with by their nicks. "So, how's Rez today?" "He's good - killing people, tossing nades. Same ol', same ol'..." (This was especially true during the Battle For Europe and Summer Offensive Mapping Contest days from the mod)

- ...when you long for Nintendo to release a Wiimote rifle add-on, with working bolt, magazine, and scope. Call it the Mario-Nagant, if you will...

- ...when you consider 900 Days: The Siege of Leningrad and The Gulag Archipelago "light reading".

For the ones already stated:

You consider buying a mosin or kar98 when you never herd of them before RO... Check. http://ut2004.wickedpenguin.com/images/m44/m44.htm

When you know all them WW2 Guns... what kind of ammo it takes... Check.

• Mosins/SVT-40/DP-28 - 7.62x54R
• TT33/PPSh/PPD/PPS - Tokarev 7.62x25
• Kar98/G43/G41/MG34/MG42 - 8mm Mauser
• P08/P38 - 9mm Parabellum
• STG44 - 7.92x33mm
  

You watch the loading screens when waiting for the maps. Check. (I love the tracers in the Konigsplatz ones...)

When you get excited when you hear the words "Caucasus" or "Stalingrad" or "Berezina". Check. Excited, as in eager to kill people, not "excited" as in, well, pants.

Dude! That's f***ing awesome! I wish I had a blown out tank near my house.

 

[PUTZ]

- when you begin to realize your dexterity as it is in game translates to the real world

(I noticed I'm faster on my shutter-release after a day of RO)

 

[SiFi]

you add more ram to you're pc JUST For RO

You buy 2 gigs for your PC so you can give your current 1 gig to your friend who loves the game but only has 512 and keeps timing out at the map connect screen

 

[Lt_Kettch]

If you can decide which weapon someone is firing and how far he is away ... just from the sound.

I think that's not too hard

LOL,

Great idea !!!


P.S. I seriously need a new PC to enjoy RO even more.

"You walk in a building and you automatically look for positions you can take that will allow you to shoot down anyone getting in without exposing yourself too much."
