Hey Ramm-Jaeger what happened to hero status & MkB42H/AVT40 being rare weapons?

RO2 is the 1st game I ever pre-ordered BTW. Never again TWI, never again.

It sad, I must admit, that for me RO2 was also the 1st game I preordered and the first time I bought the "deluxe" edition of a game (and not because of deluxe conetent, which I hate btw, but because I wanted to support TWI).

Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. So, shame on you TWI, I will never repeat my misstake.

Does anyone remember this thread?

Its funny seeing all the concerns being met with You can turn it off... AGAIN, what happened? That thread is perfect for quoting, seeing how everyone believed in TWI to help both realism people and gamers have the game that they wanted. What happened? Will this be fixed in a patch or update? We honestly just want to know... No more beating around the subject please.

Edit: This quote right here

You do realize that you can disable hero's and weapon upgrades? The rare kit we've added is just that very rare and it gives the player something to work towards as they play RO2. Realism is extremely important to us actually but the most important aspect to the game being realistic is the combat. We've spent years perfecting how weapons feel and sound to give players an experience you wont find in any other game.

Yes, I remember this like it was yesterday. There was a forum ****storm over the fantasy weapons and unlocks, whereafter TWI tried to calm us all down by reassuring us that these weapons would be rare and that we were being too harsh without playing the game first.

Well, here we are, completely justified in our concerns. Honestly, that's the last time I ever take TWI's word for anything on these forums. They've lost my trust completely.

You shut your mouth, lest ye get negged again.

I remember that episode running a couple long time posters off the forum...I'm sure I would have gone full red as well if I weren't banned.

From the RPS thread;

You do realize that you can disable hero's and weapon upgrades? The rare kit we've added is just that very rare and it gives the player something to work towards as they play RO2.

Still more MKB's then riflemen.

The blatant mistruths that have been perpetuated intentionally or otherwise really are rather hurtful. It seems like TWI have either reneged or have yet to fulfil a number of guarantees given to the community about the rarity of the weapons and the ability for servers to get rid of them.

Hopefully the full SDK will be out soon?

Well TW said several times that they want to make the game more interesting for people who are not ionly realism interested and Im pretty sure they also mentioned eSport very often. Of course RO2 is a TW game and they can do what they want with it but Iam also one of the people who are concerned in the direction Red Orchestra 2 is going right now. It feels more like a mix of Call Of Duty 1 (60%) and Red Orchestra 1 (40%). That is not totally a bad thing, beside the bugs and the other issues RO2 is still a pretty good game but a lof of people expected something different.

In a lot of interviews it seemed that RO2 is staying close to RO1 and of course the devs can decide to change some things but then they should be fair enough to also communicate those changes with the community, who is supposed to buy their game. The move not to communicate those changes is something I expect from companies like EA or Activision but not from TW.

Seriously, the class system is a total garbage now. 40% of Russians with Germans weapons. Up to 6 MKB in the German team... I see Russians running with the double Mag MG34, MKB on the back.

At the Veteran level, you just end with +20% ammo, +20% speed, +20% quickscope, +20% kill streak rew- ops.

Also it's seem to like that the fun of the cod crow was put before any realism now. The WW2 feeling is gone. I keep playing the game, but just one-two hours the weekend, same as BF3 or some zombies games. It's fun (pow pow boom boom head-shot mkb), yes, but nothing more.
You're the first one here to come up with the defnition of rare and it strenghtens the arguments even more, +1

Pls Guys stop about complaining about Ro2, im sure that when every thing is fixed the rare weapons are gone. Lets wait till the New Cod and Bf is coming out and all those Newbies and Kiddies are gone.
Lets wait till the huge Community is making something nice with the sdk!! (new Maps etc).

Generally when something is wrong in any organizations, blame falls to the person in charge.

I have a feeling the person most responsible for these design decisions in Ramm-Jaegar.

Hes the one who has the power to change class loadouts and could do so in 5 minutes.

Clearly he thinks the current setup is the best one.

Its like when people told George Lucas he was being a dumb for changing the orignal star wars movies and adding stuff in.

Ultimately hes in charge and can do whatever he wants. He wants lots of semi autos and unlocks, and thats what we are going to get.

Im sure some team members have tried to talk some sense into him, but ultimately, you want to keep your job rather than make the perfect game.

Ive seen this kind of crap with many games.

The person in charge of development knows better than everyone else.
