Please just smooth the maps. I die at least 20% of the time to getting stuck on something no bigger then my toe. Having this happen is the farthest away from realism you can get.

Please open maps more as well, especially with the new penetration system. We need more places to hide and make shots from. Currently ro is too predictable where people throw nades at likely spots and get free kills. You just know for sure where people are going to be way too often as it currently is, and having apartment buildings with only one room per floor in many cases is kind of constricting. This will prove to be especially true with the new bullet penetration system, if all a mg has to do is spray at a likely spot and watch the kills roll in and never actually see their prey at least give more spots to hide in. (still cant wait for the penetration system tho heeh just dont go over the top)

Get rid of foot shot effects completely. Currently getting shot in the foot is second only to head shots. Stopping someone completely in their tracks is a death sentence, and i could guarantee that wounded individual could still make it to at least cover. Standing in place is just ill conceived.

Hit location system, this kinda goes without saying, but how obvious this system is broken when you are sticking just your head out of a bunker and get shot in the foot.

Just get rid of tanks. The hit location system is even worse then infantry, bouncing shells are from some cartoon land, and people have learned how to shoot others before there even in drawing distance. I have to say i find this one of the worst things about ro, and i have to say imo i think tanks in ro are the worst incarnation of armor ive ever seen EVER. I know lots of people like them, but everything ive found about them i think needs a total redo, so just get rid of them completely and put your efforts toward what make this game great: infantry combat.

My last plead is a strange grey area. I get shot at before i even approach objects, and much of the time shot around corners. I dont believe this is hackers, im CONVINCED theres something fubared with original red orchestra game mechanics or coding. When i throw a grenade ive watched people standing on it not take any damage whatsoever, and other times (like every day) i see nades kill people through 2 walls on another floor that landed on the other side of the building. Something is downright broken here and im not talking lag issues because it goes into modes where you'll see nothing but bs for a whole game at a time, then come back the next game and make shots im sure i should be missing.

I cant fully define what the problem here is, but there are way to many unexplained deaths or shots coming from impossible places for this not to have some truth to it, and i really dont think it can be all hackers.

And on that note, can you just remove grass/shrubs/bushes? You know people are doing this themselves anyways, so please dont punish the rest of us.

Thanks for your time, hope its helpful, cant wait for the new game. :D

Just got in from herbiciding the lawn for nutsedge, and now you want to herbicide my game. Why not just nuke it flat, and we'll call it Rad Orchestra instead!

and yes, because everything we dont understand must be a joke.

but seriously you've never died when no ones around? or bounced more then 30 shells in a row off the lightest tanks in the game when shooting at supposed kill locations? There are a couple major systems in red orchestra that are downright broken and need addressing to put it as mild as i can.

its rather that it seems you have some frustrations and base suggestions on that. And that basic idea is nice. But your suggestions to solve your issues are to say worse than the issues in itself.

Heh. I want more grass/shrubbery. Why? Because it looks pretty. Duh. And I think most would agree.

Dude just because YOU don't like tanks, doesn't mean it should be spoiled for everyone else. RO featured undoubtedly the most fun tank combat of any game out there. ANd I loll'd at "And on that note, can you just remove grass/shrubs/bushes? You know people are doing this themselves anyways, so please dont punish the rest of us.". Lol I'm still giggling. I think just about ALL your suggestions either 1) made no sense or 2) I completely disagreed with. Oh lawdy.

Hey Moyoka, there was a map in MW not far off from the one you mentioned.....a small map with some wooden crates.

(reminded me of a paintball arena)

Seriously, though, your ping. It must suck. That's the only reason this stuff is happening. I've literally never had any of the problems you've described unless my ping was over 450.

Often times I have been shot in the foot, and have escaped death and fought on. I have seen many others do this to. Plus, that is the point of being wounded. You are not able to fight as effectively as before.

Hit location system, this kinda goes without saying, but how obvious this system is broken when you are sticking just your head out of a bunker and get shot in the foot.

The hit system works fine. If you get shot in the foot, a bullet hit you in the foot. you must have a horrible internet connection, or you have serious performance issues.

Just get rid of tanks. The hit location system is even worse then infantry, bouncing shells are from some cartoon land, and people have learned how to shoot others before there even in drawing distance. I have to say i find this one of the worst things about ro, and i have to say imo i think tanks in ro are the worst incarnation of armor ive ever seen EVER. I know lots of people like them, but everything ive found about them i think needs a total redo, so just get rid of them completely and put your efforts toward what make this game great: infantry combat.

Tanks can see some improvement, but removing them is a dumb idea. And they are not nearly as bad as your internet/computer. As for the view distance, invest in a bigger monitor.

My last plead is a strange grey area. I get shot at before i even approach objects, and much of the time shot around corners. I dont believe this is hackers, im CONVINCED theres something fubared with original red orchestra game mechanics or coding.

Again, your connection. If you "get shot before you approach objects", someone shot you from a location you were not expecting.

When i throw a grenade ive watched people standing on it not take any damage whatsoever, and other times (like every day)...

This can be an issue when the grenade is thrown on stairs, and the enemy is a few steps up/down. However, it is not that common in my experience.


i see nades kill people through 2 walls on another floor that landed on the other side of the building.

Never happened to me...

I cant fully define what the problem here is, but there are way to many unexplained deaths or shots coming from impossible places for this not to have some truth to it, and i really dont think it can be all hackers.

Here is a thought: you aren't good at the game.

And on that note, can you just remove grass/shrubs/bushes? You know people are doing this themselves anyways, so please dont punish the rest of us.

One of the stupidest ideas I have ever heard.

How long has this man actually been playing the game.
It seems to me like he bought the game yesterday and has a run in with some nazis on Danzig.

Only the first three suggestions are sensible ones. The rest is just nonsense and simply not true. RO has a highly accurate hitbox system that wraps around the limbs, in fact it's been that way since the mod. If you get shot from half across the map, it just means that you've been shot by a really good rifleman. This is not some kind of game where you can cross an open field and expect to survive. Furthermore, Unreal netcode is excellent.

And yes, the tank combat is silly but removing them completely is a stupid idea. Tanking just needs to be improved. Combined arms = more variety in gameplay.
