Still level 69 honor, incredibly disappointed with how TWI is handling the situation. The game I received is not the game I paid for, and it doesn't look like TWI cares a whole lot. Last time I ever pre-order a game.

Or the 2K forums after Civ V was released...
Or every forums after every sequel ever...

I'm all for making games more accessible by removing unnecessary obstacles and simplifying obtuse aspects, but companies always want to go just a bit too far with sequels more often than not. The companies that do it right retain the initial appeal while expanding the playerbase through new features, fancy presentation, "low level" accessibility options (Firefight, relaxed realism etc), progression (levels etc), word of mouth from fans of the series etc. The ones that do it wrong try to reshape their games for a different audience while losing their initial appeal. They lose credibility with the fans of the series and look like cheap knock offs to newcomers that want the real deal. In the end they have to establish a new playerbase who will sell it on word of mouth instead of their initial fans + the new potential players.

RO2 staddles the line a bit too much for me. I don't think fans of the series have taken to it how they should, and I don't think it was worth it considering the numbers playing now

Anyone raging that they bought the game??? I honestly feel like I'm trolled, I wasted money on this and can't return it now. I absolutely hate TWI for their treachery to us, I would use the other word but don't want to get banned. What is even all this silly idea about these rare weapons that barely even existed. Couldn't they focus their work on some much more important, realistic features that ww2 fps desperately need so much. I don't even understand their fixation about these rare weapons that spoil the game. It seems though like there's only that 1-2 malicious person in TWI that thwarts all the plans to make a decent, realistic ww2 fps and is behind all this failure, and most of you probably know who. It's their greediness to money that led the game into fail, and I hope that TWI will go into complete collapse after this so they will learn a lesson. I also hope you enjoy my money TWI, beacuse I don't enjoy your game.

I belive it was to some of the Dev's, whom also seem pretty unhappy with how things have turned out, both with the game and with what was once the RO community (though they would never say so publicly out of professionalism, you can tell if you read between the lines), unfortunately though, i don't think it was even remotely important to Mr. Gibson, who by his own admission didn't even like RO:Ost (he is a run'n'gun player by heart), and at the end of the day, he's the one calling the shots, and a lot of the Dev's seem to have not even been privy to the design choices made.



Ohh wake up and smell the coffee, there will be no fixes to any of this, not from TWI, it won't happen, not even for the so-called "Realism" mode.

TWI has made no secret of the fact that they will not listen to us, and that they don't care, streaching all the way back to Ramm's "open letter to the community", where he outright told us to STFU and accept that we where not the target audience for this game, and ever since with comments like the whole forum not mattering because we're only 0.01% of the community..

There will be no drastic changes made to the gameplay and class system, there will be no true realism mode, there will be no server presets or options made with us in mind, it won't happen.


Mods are all we get guys, but here's the kicker: Pretty much all the talent is otherwise engaged with the big total conversions like RS, ICV and IE, so i'm really not sure who's left with both the talent and experiance to fix this in the short term, aswell the inclination to do so. And the game is not set up for easy modding of things like class avalibillity, which is coded directly into the maps, and will probably be impossible to fix without creating duplicate maps (and good luck finding server admins who want to run an all custom map rotation), things are not looking that promising..

A brilliant post, + rep to you sir. The complete truth. It shocks me that TWI have responded to other topics but not the one at hand.

Who cares? We are 0.01%. A loss of 0.01% on the money your earned isn't significant in business. :mad:

This one is just epic:

"Trust us."

Wilsonam, I did trust you and I will never repeat my misstake.

As an aside, I want to suggest that TWI sell to the casual market as much as they can. After that short, yet inevitable time period where all the casuals/newbies leave for the other AAA games like BF3 and MW3, the game gets put "right." Money is made from the casuals who are long gone, vets are pleased, and people who want a niche WW2 shooter find RO2 as it "should" be. It probably isn't going to happen, but it could probably work. It's going to cause a lot of flame what with broken promises to the casuals (which by then, would really be the minority), but they've done something like this before, so why not again? :rolleyes:

why dont some of you guys just ****ing wait till the majority of the game breaking bugs and glitches are patched to get TWI's attention about this crap.

inb4 neg rep (which i dont give a ****)

I like how you added a period at the end of your badly written post. You suddenly cared about grammar? but anyways, TW can fix the bugs first, most of us just want a answer to wtf happened.

Wait til the bugs are fixed? We've been trying to get TWI's attention about this "crap" for two years. Grow up and try to understand exactly why we are upset before you post ignorantly.

no one is forceing you to read it.

thing is as a certain bug that prevents me from launching the game is in place i have nothing to do.
im lurking these forums mainly for something to do and to see TWI post their patch notes. which they do infact ****ing post.
i hate coming to this section just to see "WWAAAHH TWI ISNT LISTENING" or "BOOHOO THEY LIED"
i would usually hate being the guy to be targeted by everyone on the forums but i no longer care.

well so far most of the "BOOHOO" and the "WWAAAHH" has been coming from you, if you maybe go away and maybe make a thread about your problems that would be great.

I really hope that you are wrong and RO2 will be the game I awaited so many years.

My join date is maybe recent, but i was watching this forum since RO: ost goes out.

After years of promises from TWI and waiting from their ex-fanbase. They clearly lied. Now we just want an answer: will they keep or approve the current system? Yes or no. One word. So unhappy people will definitely go away or still and shut up and you khaosfaction will be fine and happy without us, the useless 0.01%.

I waited, supported the studio (KF things, skins, the Ball & co) and bought the game because there was written realism & authenticity "on the box". If TWI said the truth to us before, there would be, at least for me, no problem. Just stop my minds with RO2 and change game.

But no, i drooled on the RO2 screen, enjoyed the promises and interview during years, i gave negative reputation to the whiners like the one with a troll face and a Prussian helmet. Until the last moment they didn't said anything about that the game was not the one they promise to us. We all waited. Until now.

Well, i understand why people and myself are "BOHHAAAA you LIEEEED" actually.


Sorry for bad english.

If a whiny trollface in a Prussian helmet where to reply to such a thing, he might just say:

"Old bean, you shant say that my person did not predict this horrendous debacle."
