Nice gameplay footage, but those "rare" additions to the weapons really concern me.

It's ok when one or two guys in a 64 player server have access to them, but what happens after 3 months when everybody with higher ranks running around with silenced nagants, double MG mags, mkb's and all those rare weapons? TWI needs to explain their unlocking system and weapons to us.

Also a silenced revolver in the game, really TWI?

There is still a limit for these kinda things, which you can define in the server options. Doesn't matter if everyone has unlocked them, there's not gonna be more than a handful available on realism servers or none at all, since its obviously up to the server admins. Anyway think of it in the same sense as the original limits snipers and assault rifles.

Team mate spawning outa thin air almost blocking the shot and definitely near an enemy which was said wouldn't happen ?

ue3 seems to do that more than some engines, it could be what the renderahead limit was set to.

As I recall they never said teammates would not spawn near enemies in firefight, they that about spawning on the squad leader. I'm sure spawning almost in front of bullets with be fixed

The icon for cover needs to be-worked rather then constantly flashing on and off or least moved more to the side
same with the resupply message, while i'm happy that feature is in it has also been said that bullets leave the barrel, so why does a message cover up your free aim barrel

I agree the hud needs work to many popups.

I don't know about you, but this day is particularly different from any of the previous ones for me ...

Not different for me at all...

1- New info is released.

2- Everyone is happy until someone notices the new rare weapon that may or may not have be there but certainly existed in that time.

3- Everyone *****es about it.

4- Everyone ignores the word rare.

You can change the term "Rare weapon" for "Optional feature" and the rule still applies. I'm starting to see the patterns.

More people ***** about silencers than any other weapon mod before, because is a weapon mod unconsciously associated with modern combat, lighting up everyone's fears of this game turning into CoD.

Guys, get the **** out of your houses and breathe some fresh air, this is not gonna be anything like CoD, ever!, not even in the most unrealistic of the most accessible, noob friendly, dicking around of the settings.

So yes, another happy day in the RO forums.

Like REZ and HockeyWarrior have said, even I am starting to burn out on all the fluff weapons promotion and would like to see more standard (or stock) RO promotion. No sense repeating everything they have said as they do it so well.

Getting new info and view of content is nice, it just seems too focused and one sided on what many of us RO vets have come to dislike.

Everytime I see something new, the anticipation increases, bring it on :)

I personally like the idea of being able to kill someone quietly without having to get within melee range. Of course the pistol model could just be a placeholder, either way I will be happy with it.

I think the last 5 or so people who have either quoted my posts or made references to them have completely missed the point and went off in their own direction.

i quoted your post i was just saying that the most played server config. will be the one the ladders use

then i went on a rant about how others have been attacking cod guys
sorry if you thought that cod haters rant was pointed at you

Realism kiddies? We are trying to tell what should be changed in this game. But tripwire seems to be an asshole and dosent give a **** about the original fans.

Go play some cod.

That was just so uncalled for, TWI has done a lot for the community. If you can't appreciate that it's just sad,
maybe time to step out of the cave and realize were fps gaming on PC is really at if you exclude TWI.

hint*(It's not a pretty place)

How are we not discussing how handsomely chubby I look in the video D-: ?

I think you have a sexy voice!:p
The footage looks great. I'm no history buff but I think a silenced weapon could be useful in many situations in Stalingrad. If it was, or could have been there I don't mind it's inclusion at all if it's a 'rare' weapon.

Guilty, I am sorry for my outburst at you.
After reading all the other posts in the other threads I went on a (small) rant. My apologies, it was uncalled for.

The balance in the server is a legitimate concern and I never should reacted to that as I did.
(I wouldn't worry too much, but thats besides the point;))

Edit:
I agree with Fedorov, I have seen a bunch of post worry about servers full of Mkb42's when everybody unlocked it.
There is still a thing called class selection and the weapons are rare (probably not all assault classes will be able to equip the MP40-II, just 1 out of 5 or something).
This btw does not have anything to do with Rez, Hockeywarrior and a lot of others raising understandable concerns.

4- Everyone ignores the word rare.
