RS Invisible walls

[Adenru]

Console shooter cliche came to RO although I know there were plenty of them in RO2, but they weren't that obvious.
Why am I not able to climb bunker roofs and rocks on RSTE-IwoJima when clearly any human being would be able to do it? So many sniper/machine gunner spots blocked by invisible walls and there aren't many of them.

this bugs me as well. not as much as "can't prone here", but it bugs me.

Added to this annoyance, there is another thing that breaks the immersion for me too - a high wall at the edge of a map, but as I go towards it, perhaps a metre away, I get the 'You are leaving the combat area' warning! LET ME GET CLOSE AND TAKE COVER NEXT TO IT!!

Yeah invisible walls of Iwo, just WHY. WHY cant I go intop of a bunker? Whats the big deal.

 

[Gabbakeisen]

yeppers, 1foot high rocks you cant walk over, invisible walls, and HEAPS of waist-chest high objects you cant deploy on in all maps :/

This is one of the reasons why the axis side is so weak on Iwo Jima, there is plenty of potential very good spots but u can't reach them and you are forced to be exposed on a few risky spots, especially on the top of the hill part of this map.

I would love to see this map more open on this part.

Infuriating, ragequit-inducing! The most annoying thing in Rising Storm. Would love to see a custom version of Iwo Jima that doesn​

Never even noticed them.

But if anything like this is going to make you rage-quit, then you're a basket case already.

BTW the tops of the bunkers would be an utterly suicidal spot to go. Your head would stick out like a sore thumb, you would die in seconds every time. THAT is a more understandable reason to rage-quit.

So you should thank them.

If that were the case, I would have quit the series years ago, right?

No, that

Hey, I

 

[Adenru]

I wonder what are the reasons behind invisible walls, I guess this time it's not console limitations, why, Tripwire, why?

 

[kaxii]

they need to open the tunnels, that will make it more balanced on iwo

I think they mentioned that the very reason they aren

You'd be surprised.

This was much used in some maps in DH, like hill 108 and Dog green, I did it and there were always people. You will be shot at some point, but you always get to rack up easy kills from that spot as you have such a clear visual on enemies. You just have to know how and when to peek.
Repeat x times and you end up with nice bunch of kills with positive kd = buy time without wasting too many tickets.

It works just as the bunker windows, you can get enormous killcounts with type 99lmg from there.

This kind of pointless limitation of movement is again an immersion breaker, causes disappointment and frustration.
We pretty much had a freedom of movement in RO1/DH.

Also, everyone with and lmg will try to deploy it on the rocks at some point, only to realize that the map doesn't support it either.
