Those two maps, Konigs & Rakovice along with Hedgehog have really benefited from the higher player count, In my humble opinion !
Thanks...

Big servers are a BIG mistake
- Thread starter Madeyes
- Start date
Konigs can have pretty "full feeling" already with 16 players (8vs8) so I am quite curious how it will be with 3 time more players ...

Don't change it on our account Marcel. If it's filling up to the full 40 players then it's working for you. Although it does lag for me (not sure about some of the other guys) i can manage untill the server gets full. Hopefully once the servers catch up the lag will disappear.

On TDP I get 140-170 pings and I don't lag at all. Although pings are a good gauge at how fast your connection is with a server, it is not the end all of whether you are going to have lag in a game. TDP is on my fav list (with many others) and I do go and pop my head in there once in a while.

In pub play its the exact opposite. In 32 player Koings, the Axis team runs out of reinforcements quite quickly. This doesn't really happen in 44+ servers.
And to the idea of that map feeling "full" with 8 on a team:

Rakowice was always the one map I heard people complaining about feeling "too empty" on 32-player servers and how it would really shine with a higher player count.

Not all maps work with team-tanking. Some tank maps have wide spaces to fight on and an mg gunner and driver aint going to find much to do and will get bored. I.e. what use is an tank mg gunner on Orel?
The tanks maps seem to suffer from too few tanks, and even half-tracks!, with these large player servers.

When he has less view distance than the gunner?In the very least he would be an extra set of eyes scanning for enemy armor!

The main gunner usually has the least situational awareness of all in a combat engagement. When not engaged, he has the best all-around vis if popped out, but once engaged, he's practically blind to new targets.
As driver or hull gunner you do your team a great service by calling out the tanks you see. Use the vehicle voice commands for enemy in front, right, or left.
And if you're the gunner, pay attention to the driver and hull MGer if they call out a target. Consider what they would see as left or right flank, and address it asap. Otherwise you're just going to die anyway.

Well, some of that's true, but generally speaking, you don't want to be driving into combat with an unbuttoned driver, especially at the ranges at which we engage. The MG probably has the best ability to call targets because he has the widest visual arc.
As a gunner, though, I regularly pop out and look around, mostly before I engage. It helps to have wingmen too, so you don't get flanked.

3 men in a Tank are pretty effective. I have no scruples about being the third man.
Keep yer eyes peeled and watch out for sappers and them there bazooka things !
A more than useful role.
You can even hop out to survey the surrounding landscape.

I agree completely with the original poster. The only exception I think it probably Orel.
The thing about Rakowice is that you start and finish with a bottleneck. Yeah, once you take PDefences you have three cappable objectives, but, if you break up into two teams each on a 32 players server, you have 8 ppls attacking AT and bunker. Then you're back to a singular objective once those are capped.
RO should go back to 32 player servers IMO, gameplay is much better.

Are we talking tanking in RO or reality? If in RO when the gunner is not buttoned up he is the TC correct? Always keep your head on a swivel, or your turret moving back and forth, while not as fast as moving your head around unbuttoned, it does help locate and engage targets and keeps you from falling prey to those pesky snipers.
