Thanks to the ****ty stats, I've seen dozens of heroes in the game----So am I a hero. Regardless of this,what is the so-called "hero weaponary"?And it says we can use "enemy class loadouts" when you become a hero ,but I haven't seen any difference in the options of weapons .So anybody could tell me ?

Pretty sure the Assault Rifles were going to be hero weapons but they decided to give it to any Assault player to sell DDE's.

Honestly I think the heroes running around now might be bugged anyway. I'm sure none of them are legit in most cases. And I have found that when the game boosts me up to a level i'm not supposed to be I don't always get the unlocks.

There is no more hero weaponry, except the choice to choose an enemy weapon (?).

Now all the players can have access to the hero weaponry, so the hero design itself is just without any use.

They promise us (not so much) a great Hero system when you have access to the rare weaponry (yes this, you, not all the other in your team) and stand up visually, i was excited about that. Instead, now i reached my Hero level in the game, there is nothing so to see.

It's just a class with some cool icon near your name and the ability to run fast and longer. You have less suppression with the Hero class too; but myself as a rifleman, colouring the screen in black and white don't change anything in my ability to fire and kill a target where and when i want to do. So, reduced suppression? Useless at this state, didn't notice a real difference in my gameplay.

Hero weapons? Just play assault class. Sometimes i see myself switching from the Hero class to rifleman or marksman. I'm a bit sad, they killed the entire cool concept preferred to make it fit/closer to the cod model.


I would call the game RO2: Assault Troopers of Stalingrad.

TWI killed the whole hero and rarity of weapons- system to bring in more money via the DDE.

I have never bought the DDE but I could choose the MKB and AVT40 right from the start.

Talking about a waste of money when you have bought RO2 DDE :rolleyes:

That was what operations in Stalingrad were based on. Assault groups.

Russians denied the Germans from using "large unit" tactics.
Having bombed the city to rubble didn't help the Germans in their "large unit" tactics either.

Every stronghold was occupied by assault groups.

But not everyone had a MKB.42. :p

I give you that. Point well made!
But no one argues that the Mkb 42(h) should be as widely availlable as it is now (and many other historically unrealistic choices (drummag for PPSh, no fire-select, MP40 II, double sadle drum MG-34)).

But other than that my point is still valid.

I was a Hero in one match, now I can always choose to be "Hero Assault" or "Hero Commander" in any game/server. I am level 85.

I can have G41, SVT-40 or PPSH. I lost the 71 rounds drum for the PPSH though =/

Just another thing caused by the totally ruined stats.

It wouldn't really matter because heroes can be done for every class, you just need to reach max rank for it, which would mean every class could have MKB if you're doing it that way. They should just take two slots out of assault and add elite assault which has 2 slots in it for MKB/AVT.

You are right. I just didn't feel we needed to name them all. (MG-34 belt fed, no helper - Bayo on a sniperrifle - no detachable bayo's - e-spyplane - machinegunbots in tanks being superaware etc. etc.)

well no, we could play the Beta, something that helped us and TWI.
If you are soo greedy to spend 36$ for the game and not 40$ it's your loss and for beeing a duche to the Community :)

You can't call it "not legit" I mean the stats are pretty ****ed up at the moment. I was level 3, then suddenly 8 then for a long time 14, suddenly 21 and one match later 79 with a shotload of achievements unlocked -.-

I didn't even want that. Stats keep you busy and now I'm 79 after 16 hours of gameplay in MP. I want to reset those damn stats...

Odds are TW will reset the stats when they find out how to stop the glitching, so you will probably have to re-earn them at some point. Also, there was the beta access.
