Heroes and Generals

Seriously though. Bicycles.....lol. I mean sure it's fun but damn.

RO2 is the king of current gen WW2 games that's not weirdly unrealistic. Only shame is the lack of planes.

Would just like to mention my last game with the M2A2 light tank - 23 pz1c kills, 1 pz38t kill, 3 scout car kills + plenty of infantry kills, was a 35 minute assault win on town map, with a final score of 45/7 and 550 points

Tanks are fun.

one thing i learnt playing tanks: higher position you get on the map - higher position you get in the scoreboards.

Ewww tanks

Bump! Spaatz #2 update is noice, improves hit-detection = improves game overall. Is good now.

Bleh, typical grindfest that takes years to be bearable, has some cool things, but I would be kind to the devs to call this mediocre.

[Artyem]

Definitely a grindfest, but it's not a bad game to play with friends every once in awhile.  The planes are extremely simplistic yet highly enjoyable, and the armored combat can be fun, I guess.

Infantry combat is still just god awful and unbalanced, even after the hit detection fix.  I'll probably play again once they release the soviets though, which should be soon.

On the other hand, to be fair, It still has better hit detection than battlefied 3...

Ha, Battlefield 2 was good times. Sniping in that game was interesting, if someone was sprinting in a direction you had to shoot behind them because the hitbox was lag behind the character which made sniping pretty tricky. Not sure how they messed up Battlefield 3 after Bad Company 2 which was a really good game.

Pretty much the same as in battlefield 2. I am not really sure what is their problem, but they just cant seem to get it right. But there are lots of other stupid things in battlefield 3, from instanely stupid pistol zoom and movement sway on pistols (which make any engagements past 20 meters impossible) to the gun physics applying (meaning bullet drop and accompanying damage drop) applying after about 10-40 meters, even thought most of the guns have bullet firing in the velocity of at least several hundreds of meters per second. Also, assault rifles have zero recoil and are more accurate on full auto than 9mm semi-auto pistols in close-medium range engagements. Not to even mention machine guns, which are practically full auto sniper rifles with 100 round clips, meaning that anyone who is not running with M16A3 with heavy barrel and foregrip attachements is running around with LMG (usually Pecheneg) with 3.4x scope.

Play BF4 or hardline.

Bf4 is awful, so much lag due to terrible hectoring means you either kill the guy who killed you or he hits you around corners.

Hardline is driving around in a car for the entire round annnnnd the guns are awful and useless, accuracy is more reminiscent of cs

Well this needs a bump.  I am loving this game, though it still needs a few fixes, but RETO promises they are working on it- ie tanks running in terror from infantry on bicycles, High Explosive shells popping pilots out of their cockpits without doing any damage to the plane, every infantry being a sniper...  but there is hope, as it still is in beta.

I really like this game because it's not too arcadey, and, more importantly, I usually top the scoreboard.  I recorded this gameplay in my beautiful, beautiful Panther tank (which I love).  Sepia for that WWII feel, and I edited out all the time I'm wandering the map looking for enemies.

[Zergmar]

The grind in this game is scary, getting to the panther must've taken you eternity.

I confess I bought my tanker and my pilot with cash   But I grinded ground up my recon guy and main infantry (he's about rank 11), plus I got another infantry at about rank 6 who I'm gonna use as an SMGer for close combat.  I also bought a paratrooper with ingame credits, which was a mistake because he's kind of useless without any badges or ribbons or half ass weapons.

I really don't mind the grind for new infantry; you just gotta accept somebody's gotta be the cannon fodder.  I use my noobs to rush points.  My KD might be 6:24 or so, but I'm usually near the top of the score board, which means big XP and big money.  My recon gets 15:2 kills, but without capping I don't get as much XP or money.  Still, sniping is sick fun.
