Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad V5 - Rising Storm - Games

Considering that Facepunch has essentially become the equivalent of my home when it comes to online communities, I am surprised I didn't post this earlier. I have been developing a modification with some awesome people for a couple months now - and we finally got over a pretty annoying hurdle which made characters look all sorts of fucked up. Introducing : the [B]Green Army Men[/B] mod! [t]http://i.imgur.com/C2PcqF1.jpg[/t] [t]http://i.imgur.com/tzkWUXv.jpg[/t] [I]Currently featuring[/I]: -Symmetrical gameplay! Both teams have access to the same abilities, the same weaponry, and most importantly, [B]the same vehicles[/B]... -A brand new character model - with fresh new gear models to boot! Weaponry has been recolored to fit in as well! -Brand new environments! Honey, I shrunk the players!

Most (modern) Army Men sets usually have Green vs Tan.

[QUOTE=The Jack;52650450]That and green vs blue adds a camo imbalance.[/QUOTE] Blue doesn't stick out nearly as much as you'd think, actually - and the models will be shinier either way, so they'll be easy to spot

[QUOTE=ClarkWasHere;52650623]Is that a 30rnd mag for the M16 i see? :drool:[/QUOTE] That was actually an ammo loadout for the M16 during Alpha and early Beta - but it can no longer be selected. It's very easily restored, however - as you can tell

[QUOTE=NitronikALT;52650646]That was actually an ammo loadout for the M16 during Alpha and early Beta - but it can no longer be selected.

It's upsetting how slow it is to rank up in RO2 Like I want the 44/42 But i've only just hit frontline soldier for elite assault. On the other hand the best way to get levels/points seems to be shooting gallery levels. It's upsetting how many levels are just laughably one sided against the attackers. I was thinking that I was less competing with the enemy and more competing with my allies for who can drop the most guys before the inevitable victory. On the plus side my Gewehr has gotten some good levels, leaping over the xp I got for Elite assault in a fraction of the games. On the downside I don't think there's any interesting unlocks for elite rifleman.

If you really want the mkb you can buy it

Anyone know how I can get back into this game? I stopped playing it almost 2 months ago and I don't wanna play it again, but most of my friends are playing it

I'd make a stargate mod for this if I had knowledge. Red Orchestra really works as a platform for it

wtf is this shite ANZAC troops with m16s? where's my trusty L1A1?

I dispise the bots and i wouldn't try and cheese it, at least not unless it got pretty bad. Like, all they do is get in the way/feed/provoke friendly fire with their irrational actions. Also their detection is fucking terrible and odds are they'll go right past you if you're the enemy and shooting at them. Their only bonus is that they pad out the levels and you don't feel so bad if you can get a couple of kills into most lifes. What's vietnam running on and what've they improved?

[QUOTE=Cutthecrap;52652526]wtf is this shite ANZAC troops with m16s? where's my trusty L1A1?[/QUOTE] in that very same trailer, just have to look carefully M16 will be restricted to a few specialized roles, and will not be given to riflemen

[QUOTE=NitronikALT;52653302]in that very same trailer, just have to look carefully M16 will be restricted to a few specialized roles, and will not be given to riflemen[/QUOTE] Yep, at 0:07, shirtless guy in the back.

I wonder how shit the models are.

[QUOTE=TheNerdPest14;52654503]I wonder how shit the models are.[/QUOTE] It's probably just semi-final low poly models with completely white textures or something. Just like how in the alpha, the flamethrower had it's model added in, but the textures weren't done yet, so the flamethrower was this greyish white.

[QUOTE=Cutthecrap;52652526]wtf is this shite ANZAC troops with m16s? where's my trusty L1A1?[/QUOTE] Scouts/pointmen carried the M16 for its automatic capability over the SLR. I assume we'll see a similar thing for RS2.

No RO game has ever done those right. The only one that was decent (for me at least) was the one in Rising Storm (Guadalcanal? I don't remember)

The only game I've ever enjoyed night maps. Bring it on [editline]8th September 2017[/editline] btw why do people like my video, it's fucking shit

why doesn't RO have PanzerSchrecks /panzerfausts/Flamethrowers?

It does have the Panzerfaust, however the Panzerschreck only arrived very late war. Flamethrowers probably weren't used enough to be included, or simply out of technical scope. If you meant RO2, then pretty much the same thing. Panzerschreck wasn't invented yet, flamers were too rare, and the Panzerfaust would be too OP with the new tank mechanics. I actually did implement the ROKS flamethrower as part of the IOM mod, too bad it's ded as a doorknob now.

But isn't that the same for the Stg44? It arrived very late war. Also, I heard heroes of stalingrad has a few maps that aren't stalingrad. So surely there could be a few with those post 1943 maps out there?
