Amazing new screenshots!

All of which are acceptable. If you've been shot at a lot and not died, you get more used to it; get more used to it, you get less afraid of it; get less afraid of it, your hands start shaking less; your hands start shaking less, you can reload faster. As for sprinting, someone who's had to sprint back and forth in and out of fighting positions will undoutedbly be in better shape (assuming they are well fed and cared after) than someone new to combat will be (assuming the same parameters). Besides, I bet it won't be anything like sleight of hand in CoD where you go from a normal person to a super robot programmed exclusivley to reload firearms, and I'm certain it will be nothing like Marathon, where you are Usain Bolt with energy drinks being constantly injected into his system via needles. My point is I doubt TWI will make it to where Hero avatars have much of an advantage over non-hero avatars; the real advantage will be the Hero player himself. If you're a hero, you know the ins and outs of the game very well; this already gives you a humongous advantage over a green player, and the TWI devs of course know this.

Faster reload is totally unrealistic. Make it a space bar pressing action, the faster you repeatedly press the spacebar the faster you reload.
Now it's player skill dependant
(sarcasm..)

Haha yeah, or the way Gears of War does it, where you have to press it at the right time to reload faster.

I'm pretty sure I will be able to reload faster after my AGA in the Army.
I wonder if my comrades will spit in my face and call me unrealistic aswell

One thing everyone needs to consider.
People are worried that being a hero gives you too many advantages (Relaoding faster, running faster etc)
Consider these well known FACTS
1) Heroes will stand out, thus every enemy will aim specifically for them. Running longer? You can't outrun 20 bullets firing from different angles.
2) Heroes will reduce the effect of suppression on friendly forces: Meaning Heroes won't be able to rambo, cause the team will be counting on them to stick to the hottest area's to help the team (think squad leader)
3) Heroes will give a big penalty to suppression effect if they are killed (which will likely happen a lot, see point one) So if they think they'll rambo and run out of cover with their 1337 MKb42, the team will likely want him replaced as he'll be costing the team more penalties then buffs.
4) You have some nice gear, everyone on your team knows that, they will be hovering over your shoulder waiting for you to take a bullet in the noggin so they can get that sweet sweet rifle of yours (think annoying sniper campers)
I dunno about you guys, but I really don't want to be a hero myself, I'd rather die without responsibilities and it doesn't sound like its going to be so great to be the hero.

We may also want to consider how many heroes per server. Has TWI said anything yet? I would guess one per team, maybe 2 on a 64 player server.
lol

In the leaked document it said that you will be able to set the amount of heroes on the server. So that is the intenton for now at least =).

nice
side note: this "thread pages + 1" bug is getting out of hand, with my post this is three posts on this page and yet it still has a link to a null next page
i'm guessing that's probably due to a number of posts being "soft-deleted". they're still there, it's just that regular users can't view them.....so it's showing pages for the total amount of actual posts and not just visible posts.

I did kind of suggest the Nebelkerzenabwurfvorrichtung and the Zielschiene which probably came to nothing.Hockeywarrior said:
It is an F2. His opinion that it is something else is the result of lack of attention to detail on his part. And if it appears as rare in game as its production numbers suggest it should be then that would be a problem on RO2's tank map or any other map that features it in large numbers.
Yes, plenty running but empty vanilla bot servers. The Snipe and 24/7 Danzig servers which always seem populated I wouldn't touch them with a ten foot pole and the TWB servers, which are not vanilla, either have bad Euro ping or have at least 50 custom downloads/maps that take an eternity to download. Other than the occasional 6 v 7 that populate up every once in a while that is pretty much it. The tank servers are practically non-existant.
It would not be as enormous as the dubious position switching animations in the tanks. BTW what ever happens to the players headset cables during this? Your 'benefits to gameplay' is an opinion and an anti tank crew opinion at that. If you were a tanker you would understand that restricting tankers to no bailing is detrimental to proficient tanking by exploiting the terrain.
And then have a bunch of complaints like 'whenever I join X server I have to download multiple X files at dial up speed' 'X server gave me a package mismatch' 'I will avoid X server and be forced to play on Y' etc...
I dont know. I mean could the VK3001(H/P) have possibly been around in 1940, and can anyone beyond a shadow of a doubt prove that it wasn't. It doesn't matter how rare it was, if it could have been there, it's ok to use.
It means that the realism crowd has moved on to other games or has surrendered into playing relaxed realism servers due to relaxed realism siphoning a disproportunate amount of players with their BOOM Heroic Headshot Danzig MkB/AVT only with 24/7 stats gimmics.
Or sub-standard research on Tripwire's part. For example see the nice PPSH post by Grobut or the P IV A interior in an F2 post.
Need I remind you of the PTRD's overpoweredness in RO1 or the inexplicable frontal armor thickness of the Panzer III L in RO1 and other similar things. Is their research any better the second time around?
I haven't noticed yet but do German helmets get chinstraps?
Crap. soviet heros only vs bolt action only Germans map or vice versa. Heros vs the Bandagers.Snuffeldjuret said:

I think mr.Tank here would find any current console title to fit him and his needs perfectly, maybe not in realism but everything else. Judging by your posts you want something like this, am i right...
* No mod tools
* One style only
* No customization
* No ability to run certain server options, client options
Why not throw matchmaking, no dev support and locked server files into the mix and you've got yourself a modern money-making COD clone, heck while we're at it lets also make sure to lock down all the admin/console commands. (I mean dear god, the sheer thought of someone getting kicked, and after that he might never played the game again)
How's that for maintaining a community?

It amazes me that you know better what TWI is doing than TWI.
This game obviously won't satisfy you. Might as well wait for some other developer to make the game you want.

I notice the Russian tank crewmen have the same collar tabs as the regular infantry, when they should be black with crimson borders.
(But I don't mind, because I probably won't be tanking much).
