May 12th Beta Changelog

[Comrade Kaizer]

New spotting mechanic is so much better. Good stuff!

[Nikita]

Thanks for the weekend patch!

[The Beast (nl)]

Great job TWI !!!

Just played appartments. It`s a great difference with the main game.

But for me, the speed of run can be more for me.

And i have the following from the start of the game last year,

Please please please give the chat rules different colours such as in
ROost. German blue and russian red or....
Is this difficult to do, because many players asked for it.

- end this rambosylish hip shooting with the mg

- give the MN a sound, that is no insult

- only mg-class soldiers should be able to change mg-barrel

The rest is ok, how far i can see it for now

[MrHello]

All the recent improvements are great, especially the hit detection.



The font change I love too :P.


Can we see an end to this "text getting stuck on screen" bug, please?

Often I get the text "(FT1) (FT2) (FT3)" in big white letters stuck in the middle of my screen that don't disappear no matter what I've tried, unless i restart the game.

After playing a few maps.
I think that the sprinting and stamina need to be increased in Classic mode.
I would hazard at guess at about a 25% increase from its current state.
It seems a little too laboured and makes the game seem far to ponderous.

Just my opinion of course..

You can hip shoot it in real life why not in the game?

The sounds are recorded real life sounds?

I agree

[Golf33]

You can't jog around hipshooting the MG in real life. You can in the game. I would like the game to be altered to reflect real-life usage - the MG needs to be braced and held in a fairly specific posture in order to be at all controllable; and in that posture the gunner can only walk slowly and is limited in his ability to engage targets off-axis.

Please, make ESC key cancel the chat message.

Your first sentence say me, that you have never shoot an MG 34/42/3.

Second: I have 4 MNs. They sound really different. The MN in the game sounds more like an .22

The font change is great. Maybe the text could be slightly smaller though.

An option to disable hints like "press key to take cover" and the like would also be great, the icon is enough when you've had just a few hours experience within the game.

Will we be able to chose atachements (those of them that makes sense) in classic? If someone wants to use stick mags or detach the bayonet why not let them? it adds variety. Of course stuff like the dual mag for mp40 and scopes for classes other than sniper would not be avaliable.

i believe there is an option for that in the beta.

Ah, found it, great! Though I looked for it the other day but couldn't find it. Glad it was added.

Yup. The mechanism from RO1, where you had to press right mouse to ready mg for hipshooting, thereby slowing down the players movement, should really be implemented. I believe there was also a majority in favour of that solution in a recent poll on that here.

Another thing is the map voting chat. You still can't press space without boxes popping up, so all anyone ever says is "gg". It would lift the community feeling a lot if people were allowed to discuss the round that was just finished, I know I enjoyed it a lot in RO1.

But I don't want this post to be entirely about negative aspects, because I really think that this patch is one of the best by far, and the game is really on the right track, and getting very close to the actual thing.

And friendly collision has been turned on!!! That is truly a thing of beauty to behold.

It's impossible to create it

[Barleyman]

And here I was thinking you're going to concentrate on pleasing classic crowd and ignore core gameplay problems. Boy am I glad to be wrong!

I had basically written off RO2, I see I gotta spread the word a bit although its just beta at the moment.

Impossible to record gun sounds with a microphone? I respectfully disagree

Anyone else not being able to see any online server? It doesn't allow me to see the recently played servers, nor can I refresh or "quick-refresh" the lobby... yet I see 26 people online ??
