The battle of tanks on new map:
RO-Ogledow

The battle is between me(Polshevik) and the maker of this map, which is Six_Ten.

Enjoy!

P.S. The tanks really feel a lot better than in the original maps.

So does that mean the map works now on MP?

Edit: Just read up on the thread, sorry!

Yes!

You don't understand how much I love you. Keep up the good work soldier.

 

[Dawnbreaker]

Looks awesome, hopefully more servers will run this map

Played a bit on a French server. Great map. Can't wait to play with 64 players.

Pity it's a tank map, what with all the hull AI bots and what not.

 

[The Beast (nl)]

There are tankmaps but also infantry.
So don`t worry.

There is one tankmap so ogledow is a good addition.:IS2:

Very cool, nice to see it working. Cheers sir!

Does the wheat still show up through the tank if you look down while driving? :IS2:

heh, cheers for posting! It's great to see Six_Ten's work being enjoyed on a server. Looking forward to trying this out myself I'll hopefully have some time over the weekend.

This map is a really good mix of tanks and infantry battles, I bet it would be very enjoyable for fans of both kinds of combat.
Once I will come back home, I expect some 64/64 server running this map! :IS2:

Very good job m8. All that is needed now for this map is a KingTiger, Panther, and Is2.

Its a good map - I'd like to see RO1 tanks imported in like the Marder that a German server has been running and the SU76 - is that possible?

This map is great for the open top self propelled guns and the infantry can knock them out with grenades or shoot the gunners if they can get behind them.

A SU76 and Marder + infantry map.

I believe the Marder you speak of is the one that was pilfered from Darkest Hour so you would have to ask DH for it.

I played it on a Map that had russian airfields on a European server. It would be perfect paired against the SU76 on Ogledow if possible.

If the Darkest Hours guys made it I'm not surprised. DH is a lot of fun and a terrific tank dueling platform. I wonder if the DH guys made the hetzer too?

Played this "new" map last night. It's really excellent. Good combined arms. Sure, there's no transport yet (halftracks), but it seemed to me there was actually more cover for infantry.

Great map though - looking forward to playing more on it!

I believe the RO1 Hetzer is a product of the "Revenge of the Turul" Hungarian Mod project... I may be wrong though.

This video made me happy!

This type of maps + proper hardcore mode = awesomeness.

Granted, they're just bots BUT, look at the ranges:

The only map I can think of that has the range for this kind of shooting is some angles on Spartanovka.

Bolts are even more satisfying. They feel right. I can consistently and easily hit man-sized targets at ~130 meters, and pop heads around 80-100 if the rifle is rested. I'm sure all-bolt all the time players can do much better (I tried and just kept missing)

Oh man the game is going to change *drastically* when the SDK is out and more open maps get out in the community. Tripwire, I love you, but you limited how much all your gameplay changes can shine by sticking to the urban environment.

EDIT: Ahhh! I don't know how to size the images. Any help?

EDIT2: Well, for the sake of people with limited bandwidth or mobile browsers, I'll just leave the addresses up It's 200m MG kills, and it's glorious.

EDIT3: 329 meter MG shot uploaded. Find that in any stock map! Ok ok, I'm done uploading and updating this post

Also, having a community map now (with more hopefully on the way) really drives home the need for some kind of menu-based practice mode or local botmatch mode. Having to type to find a map is 'teh sillies'. Hopefully it's on the short list.

Looks great, really impressed. It's things like this that make me love the RO community above others.
