It will need serious **** to make me a nervous wreck.
To be honest I love these suggestion topics. I have a few examples which not have been posted. How about.

Players who spontanious started to make weird moves and start to rub themself as they are annoyed by lice.

Is that open challenge for "the most nervewrecking suggestion for RO2" contest? :p

Red Army winter uniform at the time of stalingrad was as follows:
Woollen Gymnastroika Tunic replacing the cotton one worn in summer.
Padded Telogreika jacket
Padded Vatnii Sharovari trousers
Shapka Ushanka fur cap
as well as the Shinel Greatcoat. The reason you sometimes only see them wearing the padded uniform is a shady area, either they have rolled the coat up in the plash palatka shelter half/cape or they have learnt that the shinel which is made with barbed wire and camel pubes is seriously uncomfortable and annoying and therefore ditched it/ traded for anti-freeze to drink :p.
I would also like to see the felt valenki boots worn by the Red Army. These were key in the deep winter fighting in Stalingrad.

They would be lucky to have any uniform.. :D

Yeah. The Soviets were actually pretty much buttnaked and only every tenth man had a rifle. But they had no ammo for the rifle as the NKVD had took over all the ammo so they could shoot all their own men from 50 meters behind the attack troop, if any of the attacking illiterate peasant soldiers would even take a look back.

I want to see a map like that in RO2, but everyone would just stay back to protect their K/D ratio.

And in said map, those who select the role of commissar actually gain points for killing friendlies:rolleyes:... and those that survive getting shot at by both sides get 10 minutes alone with a naked Rachel Weiss:p

The bad thing is, that Rachel hasn
