How is the AK so fucking worthless beyond 50 meters? I go back to the SKS literally every time.

Question: is it more fun playing drunk

Where would you like to see done?
I'd like:
>hit registration tightened, especially for automatic rifles
>tunnels made actually dark
>spawn tunnel and tripwire deployment made less finicky
>local voice chat
>audio fixes, especially spooky

drunk+woodstock is the only way it should be played

>Lightweight rifle.
>Large end of mid power cartridge
>Full Auto.

Gee whiz, maybe try flipping that there fire selector down to Semi Auto and try again, Its almost like an SKS with a 30 round detachable magazine! While still having to option to spray at 0 to 50 yards.

They should fix vehicle chat and add local voice chat. They should also add kill trades because my bullets just vanishing is stupid.

Trades?

Like - I shoot you, and you shoot me, only one of us will die right now even if we both connected at the same time.

>the weapon that shoots 5 MOA is as good at range as the weapon that shoots 2.5 MOA

WTB Steam Cards: M60 Light Machine Gun, AK-47, M79, Mosin Rifle


Friend Invite/Trade NixonDidNothingWrong

If two players shoot at one another in the same instant (which can be a significant portion of a second, or more, due to latency) let both of them die rather than erasing the bullets coming from the person the server arbitrates shot second.

uncle nguyen edition

Man. I have my finger on the buy button and the game just keeps throwing shit at me like that. Not having that from Day 0 is stupid.

reposting my question
>what do fold out stocks do?
>when do I fold out the stock and when do I keep it packed up?

Folding out the stock reduces recoil, and allows you to use the sights.

Folding the stock increase recoil, and allows you a fuller field of view, and prevents the use of iron sights.

>it's a commander is talking over squad voice comms and wonders why no one is answering him episode

anybody else having problems with the steam overlay? like it just doesn't work for me in-game

More attention given to rifleman class or more slots for specialists opened up(a worse option IMO).
Like why Can't GIs get a trench gun?
Why Can't the gook infantry get a PPSH, Hunting shotgun or a MAT?

Right now if you load in slow, which incidentally I don't, you get stuck with rifleman, and have very few tools available to you. It's kinda boring, to the point that everyone clicks something other than rifleman given the chance, this results in people who don't understand a class taking it because it has access to a gun they like, not for its specialist role. People take sapper for the PPSH, not the mines and as a result your team loses the defensive value of mined areas. GIs take pointman for the grease gun and pump, and then don't throw smokes(at the very least Give every rifleman one smoke grenade. They are really important and if your teams only two SG carriers are stupid you're gonna have a bad day). Rifleman/Grunt is a dull class with no gameplay beyond shooting mans, and its even limited in that respect due to extreme limitation of available weapons.

giving GIs a pistol so you're suddenly not shitfucked if you have to flush some gook rat fuck out of a tunnel you can't use your main gun in

Always fold the stock with the grease gun, so you don't have to use the sights, otherwise don't bother.

That's a stupid fucking idea, the gook tunnels are supposed to be dangerous to go in as a US trooper. Just like real life.

Animal Mother is the epitome of a typical military idiot. With ego bigger than his brain, his recklessness and constant need to show off got the Cowboy killed. No tactics, no attempts to outsmart your enemy, just hurrah forward into the kill zone.

If you get no guns and they get guns, then they're effectively suicide tunnels. Unless the map is designed where that's a way to prevent spawn camping. If it's a feature unbalancing the game, it shouldn't be a thing.

>If it's a feature unbalancing the game

The game is about asymmetrical warfare. Plenty of the US classes get pistols, giving pistols to the riflemen is stupid as fuck. They already have hand grenades.

Holy fuck nothing is more infuriating than a TL with no mic

it's still dangerous you cockslobbering dipshit retard, they have a full auto AK/SMG/ whatever the fuck and the GI just has a rinkydink .45

the VC still have the advantage but not to the point you literally are defenseless

How about a compromise?
Riflemen get pistols and grenades but don't get M14s or M16s.

>VC Commander Refuses to use Ambush

>Riflemen get pistols and grenades but don't get M14s or M16s.

thank you

Only allow folding stock/stockless primaries in tunnels. Right now there's absolutely no reason to ever fold a stock or go stockless, making the type56, sawn off and stakeout pointless.

Stockless weapon variants should also get a mobility bonus

Fuck man, they need to get traded shots in soon, I don't care if a few would get me because I just ran into that shit today and when the guy who shot you .0001ms earlier gets to walk off that shit it's annoying.

>riflemen don't get rifles
groundbreaking

US Riflemen can't go into tunnels, there's plenty of other classes that have pistols that can go into tunnels with some kind of weapon. If you think Riflemen should get a rifle, pistol, and hand grenades then you are the cockslobbering dipshit retard.

Make it so that anyone who votes for Firebase as a 64 man map automatically gets cancer.

Riflemen can go into tunnels just fine.

You have a bayonet for a reason, sissy.

>See Scout Class
>Shoot them in the head with your rifle
>Say Sorry in Chat
>Take Pistol
>Go into tunel
>??????????
>Step on punji stick

why not at least let the grease gun and stakeout work in tunnels?
you know because it would let pointmen actually take point better?

What's the decryption key for the rock music mega?

But a den I wuda bee defansaless

this is actually a good idea

Why is VC more enjoying to play and less infuriating than burgers?

Their play style allows for a more solo approach.

because you're only dependent on your SL putting down a tunnel and not him actually being alive.

VC is braindead easy to actually play

>VC SL: Place Tunnel and lead your squad of fuck off until the tunnel is destroyed and place a new one
>US SL: Hide behind a piece of cover just outside of the objective, or inside the objective if you are feeling brave. Stair at wall in front of you, making sure Charlie doesnt kill you, and get rid of your squads spawn point.

Because you don't have to have the same internal debate every time because you're the only person in your squad that will push and you're also the only person in your squad who will mark positions as SL.

>tfw these are the reasons the US lost the war irl

Despite having technological superiority, most of the mechanics of the GI side heavily rely on player skill and map knowledge to work at all or everything falls apart.

boyyyyyyyyyyyyYYYYYYYYYYYYY

>mfw every round I use the flamethrower I go positive k/d because either they die before they see me or I manage to flame kiss them as I go down

This game is pretty fun even though I am shit and gotta get gud

So what's currently faster for leveling? Grinding an empty Song Be server or playing skirmish mode?

STOP TOUCHING ME UNCLE NGUYEN THIS ISNT A FUN GAME ANYMORE

Playing sniper

new fag here
what are trades??

>Trying to play the game with woodstock experience on

>level 65
How?

Is there any way to change faction on the firing range? I want to get a feel for a couple of the faction weapons but it won't let me

So is boxed free-aim actually helpful? I kind of like how it feels but haven't tested it properly yet.

Just swap teams.

I love it

Reminder to adjust your mouse sensitivity

word

Is there a list of servers that have 1 round games?

I hate the fucking "do it again on the other side!" thing. This isn't csgo or overwatch. Every game the losing team clears the fuck out at the half because who wants to play with the same losers for another 30 minutes.

skirmish probably

also playing commander, and to a lesser extent SL

How do you breach an entrenched enemy as a pointman if your team is full of muppets? I throw the smoke in there and type, throw grenades into smoke but then they just stand there and wait till the smoke clears. If I try and clear it myself, I will get shot in the back by at least a camping VC or a crazy rambo flanker

I am surprised at how often my smoke causes my teammates to move up and actually attack an objective. Even its not very effective placement of smoke.

>it's a "you remember the punji trap exists but spend too long trying to get the buggy piece of shit to work and get killed whilst standing there looking at the dirt" episode

They should buff american arty or something. I've played commander a few times now and the cooldown on arty is fucking ridiculous. Give the VC more tickets but they should be under near constant bombardment.

Is this a new meme here?

I don't mean teams, I mean factions. I want to be able to practice with the DP-28 and the unscoped mosin but I can't seem to change to NLF

>Heigh Hoooo!
>Kill 7 enemies with the mattock all in a row in a single life without getting a kill with a different weapon

How the fuck you do this? I have yet to see 7 people at the same spot, not to mention killing them them all with pick

Find someone else who wants it, and boost for it.

Who fucking cares about achievements though?

It's not like they're attached to any unlockable content

>boosting for achievements not tied to content
Why not just use SAM or some dumb shit like that

lol that is retarded

>cobra pilot
>do a shitload of kills, land to rearm perfectly everytime
>next game
>get bullied by aa and dushkas all the time, always crash and burn when I try to land
wew
On another note, I love you loach pilots, I couldn't be half as effective without your amazing spotting. Keep flying low and hitting hard you beautiful bastards.

Achievements and stats that can be edited with SAM can actually be locked down and tied to an online server. RO2 did this and I assume RS2 is probably the same.

Cu Chi is the best map

>neet
>want to play until late
>low ping servers start dying
noo

Post your raifu

I still haven't had an opportunity to play it since the game launched. From my experience at least, the community has already decided to gravitate to the same maps over and over again which usually means An Lo, Hue City or Hill 937.

PIG STICKER WHEN?

so did this ever happen?

when u play rising storm 2 and then during the time ur not playing u listen to vietnam war stories :
