character is so small isnt it?

Irrelevant. The conversion between UU and cm is different between UE2 and UE3. RO1 was 67.43uu = 1m or something weird like that. In RO2 it's 50uu = 1m.
The characters are the right size, it's the environments that are larger.
I know that this might be for balancing options as to have the right cover size and such, but it is really noticeable and kind of ruins the feel ingame.
I didn't noticed that before, but now it's pretty obvious and spoils the immersion a bit... The bad part is, that I'm afraid it's not something that can be fixed at this point.
I know it's irrelevant. I didn't say it was "wrong". like i said, you can design around your characters. "No" biggie here
EDIT:
hell i played a Mod in ut3 called "The Haunted" , witch i mapped for, and the characters were 176 UU.

This one is the funniest! The door handle is at neck height of the average 1940s man. Who would make a door that huge, and with the handle that far up the door?

I gather you and most of the complainers in this thread have never been in a historical european building.
Room heights of 4 to 5 meters and doors of 3 meters size with the handle raised proportionally are normal in historical inner cities which have not been devasted in a world war and been rebuild with "modern" buildings in the 50ies.
Now I won't deny that the proportions are off, but the door example is a pretty bad one, as it is the one thing that could be correct.

That's exactly what I was considering. It may be a bit unrealistic but it's probably alot more fun to play in.
It's not a bad example. I'm pretty sure the "standard" residential doorframe height was already 210cm (about 6'10'') back in the 40s, or perhaps even a tad less. Regardless, even a larger-than-usual door should have the handle on the same place (a bit above waist height), it's clearly not the case on the screenshot.
EDIT: Just checked, the worldwide standard has the door handle vary between 90cm-105cm from the floor. Even if we assume it to be 105cm, that would have the russian on the pic be about 135cm (a tad over 4 feet!) tall, and that's pushing it.
TWI is awesome but you should just admit they got the scale of the world pretty wrong in relation to the player models:

Something that cannot be unseen should have a warning label on it.
...I should have never looked at this topic

I did and don't think thats the case.
You got a point here. I live in Poland and I've seen many buildings that survived German ocupatuion and then Russian rampage. Many of them looks similar to those shown on screenshots in this thread.
But don't get me wrong. This doesn't mean that proportions in RO2 aren't off, it just mean that some of them are not that much off.

I didn't notice it until now, seems like a major issue. I think it'll either be swiped under the rug as people being picky over "minor details" again and that the devs should be appreciated, or they'll hope nobody really notices it except for those that have seen this thread.
I don't think that any TWI Dev will post here, sometimes is better to be silent. But I woul'd really like to know if its some kind of (rather big) oversight at level design stage, or maybe it's been made in purpose to deal with some kind of tech problem? And the most importatnt question, is it possible to fix it at this development stage? I'm afaid not.
