[LemoN]

Yup, this pretty much sums up my observations too, especially with the bots.

 

[Nezzer]

When I saw this screenie I swear I thought for a second those apples were parts of the soldier's brain lying on the floor in a very low quality hahahaha

 

[Mormegil]

Something must be lost in translation

...you are not able to penetrate behind every cover in security, because many objects in the level of balls....

Also, one of the comments describes ROOST as a "horny gam"

 

[Capt.Marion]

All the Russkies are walking around with the bolt handles of their M/Ns turned straight up... guess they're not about to shoot anybody.

 

[Bobdog]

It didn't look like the 3rd person bolting animations are in yet, from the videos.

 

[Floyd]

The vaulting/mantling looks great!
For those so inclined, there appeared to be plenty of gore in one of the screenshots, too.
I also noticed a distinct lack of "ammo packs" around the dead. Hallelujah!

If they said the "geil" then that would be an older meaning of the word. It's being used to say cool in this case.

EDIT: What I'm noticing about the dead soldier picture is that his gun rests upon his body rather than clipping through to the ground. Nice touch!

EDIT #2: Addressing the occurrence of "balls" they mean bullets. Kugel is another word for bullet, but it also means ball because older weapons fired balls instead of projectiles nowadays shaped like bullets.

 

[Lucan946]

I guess 3rd person bolt isn't in yet, as someone else said.

Also: "...in the level of balls..."

Is he trying to talk about the amount of grain in a bullet, or is that just a really ****ed up translation?

 

[Bobdog]

Could a native German speaker give us a summary of what this article says? Is there any new information in it?

 

[Devil_Inside]

So... you can shoot the recon plane down? That's great!

 

[Peter.Steele]

Yeah, I noticed that too.

Must play hell with his sight picture ...

 

[Darrosquall]

the game from videos looks like betther than this screenshoots. Postprocessing is the reason?

 

[Devil_Inside]

I believe it's "smoothed out" by video compression.

 

[EvilHobo]

Could a native German speaker give us a summary of what this article says? Is there any new information in it?

I'm not a native speaker but here is the gist I got out of it:

• Up to 64 players
• Cover system, blind firing, although penetration through cover
• Commander can call artillery or mortar strikes which has the potential to destroy parts of buildings
• Commander can call in a reconnaissance plane which shows enemy positions on the map. What I'm gathering though is that it might be possible for the enemy to use their plane against the other, but not entirely sure.
• Snipers need to control their breath in order to aim well
• Multiplayer Campaign: continues until all of Stalingrad is conquered. The two sides are given points which they may use to decide their course of action.
• There are statistics, ranks, and medals, and finally the ability to climb to the Hero status.

Call of Stalingrad, anyone?

:E

 

[Stormer]

Or Red Battlefield :/

No, you can shoot them down however. The recon plane gives the commander the positions of enemies and he can direct this information further to squad leaders. That's what it says.

Does it say anything about red triangles over enemy heads when you press Q?

 

[Xendance]

So that's it? That justifies you guys to say that it's CoD or BF copy?
You don't even know how the recon plane works.
