My sniper ranting is generally limited to wondering why the German sniper gets 6 spare clips, whereas the Russian sniper gets 9. Edit: Oh, and before someone says "Ammo amounts in RO are realistic!", from what I've found after ten minutes of searching in Google, it would appear a German...

No, they don't, considering military rounds are regular old FMJ. The 'shock wave' doesn't actually do anything, because most of the body is quite elastic. It might warp for a millisecond, but that doesn't make you immediately die. After all, do you die when you get punched in the arm? That...

I'd take that source with a grain of salt, since, you know... ... is a little bit strange. Of course, then he talks about home-defence with a Mosin Nagant and aiming for the skull because the attacker might be wearing body armor. Oh, and if they're close, he'll get them with a bayonet. He seems...

Tanks are terrible. It depresses me to see that, sometimes, the only servers full in RO are 24/7 tank-only servers. Looking at the status of the Arad-only server makes me want to vomit.

Woah, less players on a team that's out of reinforcements? Color me suprised! We must stop this wave of German fanboyism at once.

Volley sights were meant to just bombard enemy positions with bullets. They weren't for accuracy. Hundreds (or in some cases, thousands) of men, together, would fire using their volley sights all at once in an attempt to pin down an enemy position. British volley sights had graduations marking...

Skirts are absolutely useless ingame except against panzerfausts. Just use the F2 datasheets.

Whereas, in game, the opposite is true!

Wait a minute, the German L/43 and L/48 guns had penetration values of around 80-90mm at 1000 meters. How is destroying a T-34 at that range "theoretically" impossible? The T-34 in game DOES have the L/42 gun. It's called the F-34. Every production variant of the T-34/76 had it. Only the...

Trying to stab someone while they strafe back and forth and throw both of their grenades at your feet is not very realistic, no.

Er... you DO see almost every tank penetrated. PTRD can obliterate any tank in the game from the sides, and most of them from the front.

hoo boy.

I want a T-26, SU-85, StuG III G with saukopf mantlet and coaxial machinegun, a Nashorn or Marder variant, a Hetzer, a Tiger II, and an SU-100. I don't think I'm really biased. I just want more vehicles that I think would be balanced. Of course, before anything new gets added, I want the...

Okay.

Sorry, I guess I excellently misinterpreted as being hilariously condescending*. I suppose you believe I just misquoted you again, and the fact that you said that does not matter at all. Just like how you referenced Odessa and Stalingrad and then said you'd like the teams to be 24 Russians vs...

If it was propaganda, it'd probably a hell of a lot easier to find information about it. But I can't find anything that confirms or disproves it, other than the fact that the abteilung was in the area at the time. Well, I guess the fact that it was apparently a shot from nearly 3 miles away...

Since you've apparently taken this quite seriously, please note that I said it was reported to have done that. I'm not going to bother finding "hard, peer reviewed historical sources" for a singular event involving an anti-tank unit on the Eastern front; a subject which is not exactly covered in...

Hey, guess what Mr. Thread Necromancer: Both those battles have a large Russian advantage in terms of total reinforcements in RO. The total amount of players playing in game does not change that. In fact the team with more players loses reinforcements faster, so if the Germans DO have more...

LOL!!!!

Generally, never try to outshoot an angled Russian tank. Always try to flank them. For reasons which I will not mention here* the tactics employed by the Russians in the actual war must be used by the Germans in RO. German tanks must assault and outflank the Russian tanks simply because Russian...
