BIG BULLY BUTT

Bad TLs deserve to bullied.

Not OP, but I'm thinking to start putting up a pastebin to "solidify" our general. What should be there? Some guides explaining retards how to play, just a bunch of links? Reply and we'll figure something out.

>scotcuck faggot a member of /brit/pol steam group

jesus you must be a raging homosexual no way will i play with you

Bakuretsu

>he doesn't know the RO2 community is mostly nazis

wew as they say.

>frog

Do I buy this game?

>Not getting drunk off cheap vodka and playing Soviets

[40-1] REDD leave please.

No

Do you want to watch commies fry?

Which shotgun is the best at range?

Do you like shooting communist gooks and/or making GI go home?

hunting, no competition

>max team size is 32 men
>maps are platoon vs platoon engagements
>yfw you realize the American TL is actually a FNG butterbar lieutenant platoon commander and not the badass full bird colonel they're pretending to be

Sure explains a bit, doesn't it?

Hunting shotgun is the best shotgun in the game, maybe the best weapon period.

I do feel an urge to make 19 year old high school graduates leave my rice farms alone.

Platoon is too little, remember the ticket count is 500 per side, that is batallion level

How so?

Then yes, buy it.
There's going to be a big drop in players in a little while, but the players that are left will stay forever.

Due to the map sizes, 450m is all you need zeroing wise.

Both shotguns are ridiculous honestly but more realistic than in most games. I've been killed by an M37 at 45m.

What's the difference between the American's shotgun ammo?

both rook the same

But wouldn't it throw your aim off at closer distances?

hunting,I've gotten headshots over 70m out with it

Holy fuck, Firebase and Compound are so garbage. Feels like they were made by amateurs.

>Hurr, let's have a map where the attacking team has to damn near approach the point single file
>Durr, let's make a map with nothing but CQB, even though it's the most unfun degenerate shit in the game

Alright I'll give it a purchase then, thank you.

bullying rice farmers

I love this game.

They were supposed to be played 8v8, not 32v32. Blame custom server owners.

i would too if i didnt have anger issues

>not naming all your squads IT AINT ME
>end of game shows best squad as IT AINT ME
IT AINT ME

need more players on the farming server
anyone up for autism line part 2?

>An Lau Valley
>rush my Cobra over to B and strafe the hillside
>15 kills

I was in a squad called Gooks of hazard , I thought it was pretty funny.

iktf

Get out you memeloving fuck

I'm nominating Gooks of Hazzard for Best Squad Name.

Are you autistic enough to whip up a quick background for your character depending on his looks?
>older PAVN soldier, participated in war with the French
>young NLF kiddo, went to study to Paris and got brainwashed by gommies
>merricans are two brothers, marine one being more laidback and hip

I've found that I've got some low level irritation the whole time I'm playing, kind of like with Hotline Miami.

I like it.

I'm 70% certain that using the green soviet helmet on NVA guys makes burgers hold their fire for a second longer which leaves them open to get shot first

>squad 3: chow lee
simple, but I liked it

...

skins when? I need to nuke gooks in style.

>Not recognizing Taimanin

Is steel, wood, and polymer not beautiful enough for you? Fuck off.

Is it a password server?

as fun as vaporizing a zip point blank can be, people need to remember these things have range too

yeah, it's in the steamgroup, pass is mickey

I have half a mind to join and TK all of you.

steamcommunity.com/groups/namshitters
Add Veltex, it's his server

honestly the carbine is better for gooks tb h

however the trenchgun is best for GI
simply because the greaser gun is abysmally bad. for the reasons i tried to show in the picture
also the rate of fire is ass

I fucking hate this glitch, seems to happen randomly when you try to vault over objects. It's only happened twice but apparently it's common enough that my squadmate tk'd me as soon as he saw me like this. This is what the glitch looks like for everyone else, for you you're sliding around the in a really slowed down sprint animation and your aiming is all messed up.

>playing grenadier having fun
>decide to start trying to go for tunnels
>keep dying trying to get to them
>stop getting kills
>start getting frustrated and pissed off at the game

well fuck that. not even worth it at that point

that'd sure show us, you kill us all once then get banned

Just watched this for the first time last night. I can't believe how many other movies and video games reference it.

>The horror... the horror.

Daily reminder that boosting retards are /v/-tier and don't belong here. /rs2g/ as a whole supports legit leveling.

Trying to destroy tunnels (usually because your teammates never do it) is one of the most frustrating and thankless experiences in the game.

>wanting to legit unlock everything

got that skine in kf2 yesterday

All I ever do on supremacy is collapse tunnels or try to RPG helicopters. Occasionally I'll cap an objective if it's on the way, and kill to defend myself, but that's it.

I'm a demolition man.

>not wanting to git gud in process of levelling and show off to FNGs while simultaneously destroying the other team

A moment of happiness in an otherwise dull day.

Is it better for the teams to be even or uneven when boosting?

...

>finally wading through a river, clawing through the jungle, mowing down any gooks in the way, finding that tunnel, and blowing it up
>there's 4 other tunnels dotted throughout the map
>if you don't kill the squad lead too they just throw another one up

Even, cause you can just form a line with the person in front stepping out of the cap when each side takes turns capping it.

>People choose to approach the squad tunnel, hold use, and pray to not get deaded for five seconds instead of chucking an explosive at it.
>People choose to do this even after you toss an explosive at it.

So is 2 the limit for tripwire traps on the map total or is it just your inventory? Because I sweat I've had 3 traps up at once.

Some people don't have explosives.

Every machine gunner ever

f

actually hate how quick the mgs overheat
its fucking retarded actually

>mfw I have 150 hours as MG42 gunner in RO2
>mfw I use the M60 in RS2

I've hated nearly every multiplayer shooter for the last 10 years and I love this game

Learn to burst you fuck

I am hoping skins also include remodels of existing weapons into different variants. I'd pay for an m44 mosin in game.

in both games i just snipe people 200m away with the machineguns

...

even when you burst
using the fucking thing at all you get le smokey vapours meme
sure get it when you waste an entire load at once, but you get shit on for shooting more than once every 3 seconds

just bought this game, what am I in for?

>slap the shit out of air-taxis all round
>43 kills
>game gives "most kills" and "MVP" to the team commander, tied in kills with me; he has most points

"Hey, I got most kills. Artillery is OP as fuck, dude!"

>yeah... sure is, LT.

You're in the shit now troop

same but I got pretty good at hipfiring the MG42 in close quarters as well

>come get sum.flac
>2:38

such a sexy lick

...

the mg42 destroys people up close lol
mg34 is for true sniping with the single shot mode

Man fuck the MG 42, that shit is OP.

...

...

What is the best AK variant?
I like the AKM for the open sights but people say the Type 56 has the higher muzzle velocity.

>One is chinkshit
>The other is Soviet built war machine
>implying there was even a choice

I just found out about the AKM's sights. I'm never going to use any other variant just for that reason.

I fucking hate the huge sights on the US guns. Fuck the M16's carrying handle in particular.

Best AK variant is the SKS

AKM is coded to be 5 MOA
56 is 4.5
also,
youtube.com/watch?v=BEV0kuDGkug

the variant I use is the 56-1, I use it when too many enemies are too close and I need to go fast but don't need to aim like I usually do with the sks.
