Man, we really need to make the names all cryptic again, next patch they should require you to order a special decoder ring off the website just to figure out what the classes are. But then everyone would cheat and just play all of them within about 2 games and look at the pictures and be like "Wait a minute, I recognize that rifle shaped object!"

Really if it's that much of a bother to you, just poke yourself in the eye until you see all blurry then pick a class, that way it will still look foreign to you.

Works for me.

Oh please, how freakin' hard was it to read and remember the class names? First day I played I read the class names and their description, aknowledged their loadouts and never had to refer to the class name again.

There was nothing wrong with the class name, if you cant take 2 minutes to look at the class name/description and memorize than that should be your problem.

Can we stop the discussion about the class name changes? It got the 9 page thread closed and if we keep it up, human nature dictates that it becomes a flame war.

So stop it before it becomes a flame war that'll get you banned. :)

Had the chance to look at the update this morning where I played the new map. Didn't seem the run and gun fest that everyone had mentioned here.

I thought, with a good team, there could be some great tactical fighting.

smg's seem easier to control, smoke was nice and fun to use for cover, need to play some more when I get home this afternoon and see how tanks are but little class naming issues aside I thought it was a good update. Runs very smooth and that AMD64 lets me know that RO was made for my computer :p

The player class titles may have been changed to de-nazify them?. Possibly due to pressure from the German authorities?.

The new map is a great SMG fest. I've heard alot of players complaining about Rifles against SMG's. My view on that, is to pickup a dropped SMG or MG, it soon evens out, and that could be historic??? :rolleyes: ...

Great Patch TW! Smoke rocks... as does the ability to change tank rounds on the fly. Excellent work all around.

the patch is "ok", but im a bit dissapointed, since i expected some "bit" more bug fixes in general. But ok, since the last patch (if im right) wanst that much time between them.

So! At least good to have it so fast! Hope this will stay :D

Lyes Krovy is great, the smoke nades are great, the new text is great, the new tank reloading is great, and I really don't give two ....s about some class names being changed. Seriously.

Good stuff TW! :)

No. It is not a rank in the Wehrmacht. It just means group leader.

Btw:

Yes, that is exactly the reason why we kept the Class names of the German version in German and only changed it in the International version. :rolleyes:

I'm loving the tank round change. It has made a big difference to my gameplay. I love the Stug and now I actually feel inclined to take out nme inf. The smoke is good and doesn't appear to be overused so no problems there. Class names don't affect me, I never really payed attention to them, I'm only interested in the loadouts. Just need some more ammo for the PTRD and I will be very happy.
