I have baked a new thread solely for you to elaborate brother
on that note though I already can see exactly what you're talking about mapwise. My gut instinct with insurgency sandstorm has always been that it's got this stellar core gunplay element which is imo the best in the industry that I've played (so much so in fact that every other shooter I've tried feels like shit by comparison, to the extent that insurgency sandstorm is now the only fps I regularly play with around 2k hours down), but the rest of the game suffers from a lack of clear vision and a massive failure to account for the fact that you only have around 14 ish players on any given map. that works just fine for most maps, but on some maps like powerplant, trainyard, or forest it can feel way too large. inversely you run this problem where some maps are simply not at all designed for some gamemodes, like prison for instance somehow being allowed to exist as a push map. My personal opinion though is that if you can somehow retain
>the gunplay
>the ballistics
>the equipment selection system
>the sound design
>the pace of gameplay
>the balance it strikes between being less 'hardcore' than arma/tarkov/squad but more tactical than COD/Battlefield
but then add in
>gamemodes with much greater scale and numbers of players relative to the maps
>greater environmental destruction capabilities (one thing I would murder for is having artillery actually be able to destroy certain buildings, and also being able to breach through walls with C4/IEDs
>maps properly designed relative to the intended gamemode
>gameplay balance reoriented to significantly disincentivise ridiculous spawncamping spots (camping in and of itself can be fine, it's meant to be realistic and entrenched gun nests / sniper nests are absolutely a necessary feature, the problem is that you get people who can sit on a wall 400 metres away and get a direct line of sight into the enemy spawn)
>movement collision significantly overhauled

Okay.

NWI releases Insurgency 2014 as a standalone of the original Insurgency mod. It build up a dedicated community due to having tight arcade gunplay. The easiest comparison of what it's like is that it's similar to COD4 hardcore, but without all the killstreaks, bunnyhopping, last stand/marty shit. Just simple objectives, decently balanced maps that work well for most game modes, and really tight gunplay and movement. All they have to do to not fuck things up is keep doing more of the same. Real goddamn simple.

Cue Day of Infamy. DOI is Insurgency but WW2. And it was fine. However, with the development of DOI the cracks started to show. Maps were clearly based around Push, and the addition of off map artillery strikes reinforced that. Other game modes suffered for it, especially Ambush and Skirmish. Skirmish games would run one sided due to most maps either not having changes made to the spawns resulting in one team having to push into fortified positions, or spawns were placed in such a way that one team could easily spawn trap or blow the enemy cache immediately. One map even has a point where a section of the point is in total cover in the spawn area, meaning it can't ever be taken as long as someone sits there. Ambush was fucked by there being only one extraction instead of two, and the change whereby instead of a VIP that needed safeguarding it was an intel satchel. A great idea on paper, except they also made it so the intel could be destroyed by any explosive which resulted in an instant loss for the carrying team. The new dynamic of squad leader and radioman meant that one guy got relegated to hugging the ass of another player and doing nothing all round, and getting killed by a random artillery shell in a game where the main focus was the gunplay was very off putting. There were also issues with weapon balance and selection, but those aren't as important in context with Sandstorm. And they added cosmetics, which becomes a big deal.

-cont

>>1781249
Now DOI had a beta testing period, and all of those issues were brought up by players. These were summarily ignored. This became a common theme, as issues with Insurgency 2014 made during this tome were getting the same treatment. One patch to 2014 fucked the backend server settings somewhere and caused community servers to crash regularly. Took months of bitching to get them to revert it. And all of those issues became magnified in Sandstorm.

Now in the runup to Sandstorm, NWI makes some big promises. They claim they're going to have a single player campaign, all the game modes will be present, lots of map interactivity, all kinds of stuff. And this isn't just from general press releases, this is also straight from the mouths of the devs. If you were active in the Insurgency 2014 community, you would likely have personally spoken to the devs at some point, as they frequently interacted with the community. But as development of Sandstorm rolled on, they started pulling back on their claims. The campaign was cut, then a lot of the map interactivity (doors are a residual of this), and then they announced they were cutting game modes for fear of "splitting the community" and claiming the community was too small to populate so many game modes. While other game modes were affected, Ambush was the big cut here. It had a very strong following with one of the top community servers being a 24/7 Ambush server. Well the devs axed it and claimed they would add it to Sandstorm a few months after release once things had "stabilized" some. Which they eventually did. Years later, not months. After everyone lost interest and moved on. This had the effect of, surprise surprise, splitting the community since the cut game modes resulted in people not migrating to Sandstorm from Insurgency.

-cont

>>1781285
This was all also exacerbated by NWI actively trolling major Insurgency 2014 servers during the runup to Sandstorm. One particularly fun example: I hopped on the major Ambush server, the one run by the VIP guys. There was a player in the server with the dev tag, and everyone is pissed at him. So I hop into the teamspeak or whatever it was they had at the time to find out what's going on and the server admins are rioting, fighting over who gets to be the one to ban a dev. As it turns out, it's NWI's official community manager in the server. He's drunk off his ass, purposely throwing matches by suiciding as the VIP and being belligerent about it, and apparently streaming it though I never found said stream. So eventually he cops a ban and moves on to other servers with niche game modes to do the same thing. Needless to say, this builds absolutely no goodwill. So now the community is in something of a lather.

NWI brings Sandstorm out for closed alpha testing, pulling community members to do so. I was one of them. Remember all those DOI issues? Well all of those issues and more are present. It's clear they hadn't been listening to feedback. In addition, while the previous game ran smoothly, they had gone from Source engine to Unreal, and the game was now full of bugs. So they get their feedback from testers, shut down the alpha, and proceed to prepare for release. Release comes, and pretty much nothing has changed. All feedback summarily ignored. Performance is all over the place, textures fail to fully load, looking at the ground with many weapons reveals a translucent blue box at your feet, gun sights are off, PvE AI is a mix of retarded and terminator, just a mess all around.

-cont.

>>1781305
As it turns out, the only ones NWI had been listening to were the Ins 2014 competitive scene. Many changes were directly catering to them specifically, in the hopes of securing that sweet esports cash. Of course, the comp guys ended up fucking off to other games, leaving us with their mess.

And now we get to the meat of it: everything wrong with Sandstorm. Some of this has been corrected somewhat, but all are still present in some form or another.

There's the performance and bugs, which I've mentioned. Maps are a mess, way too large for the player count and extremely visually busy, making individual targets difficult to pick out (more on that soon) among all the clutter. There are restricted areas all over the place that kill you if you linger in them, and often in places that butt into where the natural flow of travel through the map from one place to another takes you. Many of the maps are designed more like the ones from large scale FPS games like Battlefield. Some even had a driveable technical, which was completely out of place in tight urban maps and would frequently get stuck, basically serving as free kills for the other team.

The gunplay has been changed, with movement being more sloppy and slippery the more weight you have as opposed to 2014's simple speed reduction. Ammo types were removed, claiming they were overly complicated since the comp scene only ever used AP. Some guns have a delay between clicking the mouse and firing for no apparent reason. The ballistics were changed to an odd hitscan hybrid where after a certain distance the bullet becomes an object and gains velocity and drop. And armor was buffed both directly and indirectly thanks to the ammo removal resulting in a greater time to kill on average. All this results in much less snappy gunplay than in 2014, and the off map strikes are now full-on cawadooty with drone strikes and an attack chopper, further detracting from the focus on the guns.

-cont.

>>1781329
And then there's the cosmetics. For PvE, cosmetics are fine and dandy. But this isn't a PvE only game. In PvP, those cosmetics are a goddamn nightmare. There were 8 total player models in 2014, 4 for each team with one of those only being used in Ambush. This made target ID simple. You could tell at a glance if they were friendly or an enemy, and how much armor they had on so you knew where to shoot. In Sandstorm, all that is gone. There's almost no visual consistency, meaning you never know exactly what you're trying to pick out amongst all the map clutter, and it makes friendly fire much easier. The only team consistent element is facial covers and more casual clothes for Insurgents, and camo uniforms for Security, but after all the DLC and new cosmetics added, even that is no longer a reliable indicator as you can now easily mimic common elements of opposing uniforms. And don't even get me started on the DLC.

And now you've got these giant maps that don't have the server pop to make good use of them and you're running around trying to spot players in cluttered environments wearing cluttered uniforms slipping and sliding everywhere because you decided to wear armor. I've had multiple Skirmish matches on full pop servers where I'd be running from contested point to contested point, only to find nobody there and end up not seeing anyone else the entire round, or I'd run into someone from my team and they'd kill me thinking I was an enemy. It's a complete shitshow. PvE was basically the only thing that turned out somewhat decent, and has been the main thing propping up Sandstorm. And since NWI sold out and was shut down, the whole franchise is basically dead.

>>1781249
Shit game with shit anticheat. Kys

>>1781329
>Some guns have a delay between clicking the mouse and firing for no apparent reason.
iirc all open bolt guns had this but was later removed. I think the stated reason was to simulate bolt travel after pulling the trigger
>And armor was buffed both directly and indirectly thanks to the ammo removal resulting in a greater time to kill on average.
While true that armor got kinda buffed by this, we're talking a one bullet TTK difference. The main purpose of armor in sandstorm is surviving explosives as it doesn't do shit otherwise. NWI really fucked Sandstorm but removing AP/HP ammo types for every gun was the right call.

Look I'm sorry I didnt read your entire rant on Sandstorm but I just want to say I also did not enjoy sandstorm. Main reasons
>woman
>the pandering to esports and competitive instead of casual pvp and pve
>at some point the DLC skins started looking like retarded airsoft shit and only got worse as time went on

I wish more servers would run one point to one point conquest. The whole 'every point is cappable if you have a radio connection' leads to lots of gankfaggotry rather than actually fun battles. Maybe make it so any points directly next to the current contested point is, but this shit reminds me of battlefield conquest where you just spend all the time running around putting out fires, not doing firefights.

>>1781249
read it all, pretty spot on, the maps and related systems like spawning are so fucked in Sandstorm
graphics and movement are also strange, UE is such a trash compared to Source

thank you for the effortpost anon, that's really enlightening. I would simply say that it's downright miraculous that the core gameplay element is enjoyable enough that I could either be unaware of, or partially ignore, most of these (egregious) flaws. I doubt we'll ever get a new insurgency game that does justice to what should've been, but one can hope, and I'll still love this current game for what it is nonetheless.

I hate tiered armor systems. One of the reasons I stopped playing tarkov, but just had it happen in dayz on a modded server.

Seems perfectly normal.

Give me a quick rundown on arma reforger

>>1812379
It is a tech demo for Arma 4. The new engine is much better than the shit from Arma 3 and feels much better to play on. Much more immersive, animations for pretty much everything. Runs and looks better too.

Reforger is meant to be played online, the singleplayer is dogshit. Most people are playing Conflict mode, which is just a big sandbox PvP where you have to capture a bunch of points on the map. The entire map is open so you can fuck off and do whatever. I like driving behind enemy lines and placing landmines on supply routes.

Still heavily reliant on modding community, many people are playing modded conflict so you dont have to do vanilla cold war setting if you dont want.

>>1812493

Also worth conflict servers only end after a team has held a certain number of victory points for a few minutes. And that is the only end condition. So some games can go on for 12 hours, I think the longest I saw was 26. You can do transport, logistics, join the masses in doing regular attacks, do spec ops larp shit and turn off your radio so you dont have to listen to your team talk about shit. You gain xp and rank up, and higher ranks let you spawn in better vehicles and get better equipment to choose from. Your rank resets with every match, it is not a persistent thing.

I think it is worth buying on sale. I have gotten hundreds of hours of it though and I have a good time playing Conflict.
Arma 4 is coming out in 2027.
Yes, you can adjust your FOV from 40degrees to 90

>>1815263
Will i have a good time as a solo player without any friends to play with?

>>1777029 (OP)
Idek if it’s even a thing, but if there exists a private server for v9 Squad (or even the patch before they added vehicles; god bless the dolphin dive), that would be the greatest throwback to tactical gameplay & fun with the boys you could have in 2025 without having to deal with faggots and/or zoomers.

Where is everyone?

>>1818274
It depends on how autistic you are. I have 1-3 people that I play with every once in a while. Most of my time is spent solo though, but I also dont mind grouping up and communicating with randoms. I would say if I didnt want to talk to people, and just did my own thing every time, I would not enjoy it. But if you no problem talking to randoms it will be fine.

What do I play
Hopefully Squad level of involvement so I don't have to sell my left nut to a milsim community but people actually work together from time to time at least.
I tried playing W.C.S beacuse retards shilled it online but it's just 24/7 headless chickens and helicopters farming kills. I wasn't also a fan on how everyone has night vision and suppressors, I thought it was supposed to be pretend Ukraine but it's just Battlefield.

>>1830249
Join a vanilla server with first person only and 128 players. Or just vanilla first person only.
I am also not a fan everyone having night vision and suppressors. I think the vietnam and iraq war servers also have first person only, no suppressors.

>>1830249
>>1830303
also bought it, feels way different than arma 3
you guys wanna play?

>>1830303
I played some Ukraine War thing that I saw in archived threads and here too everyone was in full ghillie, had some edgy facemasks or full tacticool gear. Why even make mobikcore assets if nobody is going to use them? And yes, the best I heard was one guy screeching on Platoon radio about how everyone is playing badly.
I played bunch of vanilla beforehand and also ran into the issue of people barely speaking to each other, but figured it was a vanilla issue or something, since the game is crossplay now apparently. It's just all 1 player squads, one mostly full one that I figure everyone joining gets sorted into that nobody talks on anyway and some locked squads with a couple of guys. Do I really need to find a group and deal with everything that goes with it or try to convince my friends to buy this game to get anything out of it? Even on shittiest Squad servers where command chat is dead silent you usually get people talking on squad or even local all the time.
Actually, is it just because of the discount?

On one hand, it sucks getting banned from the most popular server. On the other hand, WCS servers kind of suck dick with everyone having suppressors and night vision and general arcade feel. And I have been playing Spearhead servers more often anyways.

>inb4 cope
I know, this entire post is just me coping and venting about getting banned

i take back everything i said, reforger is the best game ever

Reminder to use a flashlight if you are on a server without nametags. We ran up on this guy, he did a friendly wiggle at us. Would have sat there and talked for a second if I didnt flash his arm to see his armband.

>>1835936
which server?

>>1836718
Spearhead, their NA5 server.

buy the rest of the DLC for WARNO, or buy Broken Arrow?
I'm leaning towards WARNO because it has proper PvE unlike BA

>>1840779
Broken Arrow has Skirmish vs AI too. And thats all the shitty Army General is, a bunch of Skirmishes vs AI. At least Broken Arrow has an in depth scenario editor and steam workshop

>>1840784
can't add friendly AI to your team though, so either fight unbalanced or with human teammates.
gross

>>1840779
I like that Broken Arrow does away with arbitrary Eugen limitations but honestly Warno is probably still a better game, but if you are playing it primarily for PvE just pirate it and save yourself the need to buy the copy paste DLCs.
Broken Arrow will be great in some time when they iron out stupid shit, it'll get discounted and they'll make DLC with more factions or add some variety in patches.
If you care about competetive poopsocking then honestly Broken Arrow is better solely because it's ranked mode is 5v5 so it's not as stupid as artificial as Eugen games where everyone just plalys 1v1 and team matches are pretty much reserved for casual play.

>>1840908
I hate PvP, especially competitive, so I'll probably stick with WARNO.
I already own it, so no need to pirate

>>1840911
I own Warno too but every time a DLC drops I play around with it on a pirated copy to figure out if I give a shit.
I don't neccesarily hate DLC but some of them are really unsubstantial with divisions that are barely different from existing ones, except this time with slight stat change or unicorn or two. I still maintain nation decks would have been superior, maybe with division taking up place of Wargame's specializations and being tailored specifically for competetive play.
I'd pay good money for entire nations worth of shit I get to play with, not the Nemesis bullshit with 5$ a pop for three new models.

I love green-and-tan 2003 camo but good lord the fucking Americans on insurgency reforger server. I just saw someone spawn a cobra on an airbase in the midst of being strafed by a mi6 and it's just

>>1833653
It's just not good. The silcners are really the singular culprit to me as I think without them it wouldn't be so bad - arma conflict insurgency is fantastic for that reason >>1812493 among others, and you can get a silenced Chink SMG in Vietnam but because it isn't optic'd that's not a big deal. Until we get simulation of ballistics so it's not just point and click Cawadooty avoid WCS. I need to try some of the other modern servers if they do away with silencers for everyone.

Also people gamma cheat with darkness in reforger so if you keep getting instagibbed at dark when they shouldn't see you, that's why.

>>1831220
They learned a lot of QOL features from A3 mods but sadly didn't think to have the grenade aiming. I also find grenades really underpowered - I throw them more as a "maybe it'll catch someone" rather than an expectation of actually hitting anything.

>>1830584
It's got an issue with the lack of being able to enforce classes. A complaint earlier today for WW2 arma conflict was if any of us germans use rifles (By which they mean k98 or g42 or whatever that shit is called), and then being counter-bitched with you guys all just use bars and tommyguns.

I do not know how you would do classes though. Let alone players would bitch and make the server remove it. Upgrading by rank is an option but getting to corporal is quick as shit. I just accept the oversaturation of kit.

>>1830249
As I shilled a second ago arma-conflict has vietnam, insurgency (WCS without silencers and NVGs), and now a WW2 one that is real early beta (half tracks and kubel for germans, jeep and...maybe that's it for USA) but rapidly progressing as just a weekend or so ago there were no half tracks or even grenades. Also vanilla servers. Also maybe try one of the modern/ukraine war ones but as you've seen here WCS is an acquired taste.

Insurgency is kind of 2000s/ISIS era but kind of not, as there's VCOGs for the US and you can steal a VCOG from the MSG90 as the insurgents and slap that on the red-dot-variant PKM or one of the G3s - or you can rock ratchet AKs. But the insurgents do remarkably well. And can RPG spam

>>1841164
I thought there is no gamma setting in reforger?

>I throw them more as a "maybe it'll catch someone" rather than an expectation of actually hitting anything.
Same and other usually use them like that as well

>>1777029 (OP)
hello bros, is RS2 worth it in current year? The player count is rather low and I was wondering how much of the servers are a vanilla experience or if they're all modded these days

>>1841169
>It's got an issue with the lack of being able to enforce classes. A complaint earlier today for WW2 arma conflict was if any of us germans use rifles (By which they mean k98 or g42 or whatever that shit is called), and then being counter-bitched with you guys all just use bars and tommyguns.
I think there are two solutions for this - actual classes which limit what you can pick out from the arsenal which would be the most heavy handed option but also might not be easily doable, or taking out expensive weapons also costing rank points like vehicles on some servers, which might also not be possible, idk how Reforger works under the hood. So, K98s would be free, you can buy an MP40 from Corporal but it sends you back to Private, you can buy a G43 from Sergeant but it sends you to Corporal, you can buy a Sturmgewehr from Lieutenant but it sends you back to Sergeant. This way you can't just spam advanced weapons but you can also build up some bank with higher ranks that otherwise wouldn't be that useful in WW2 because of no Attack Helicopters and such.

you ARE aim training, right, anon?

>>1841737
no just wait for '83. basically going to be RS2 2.

>broken arrow is a disaster
I'm pissed

>>1847664
according to who, I'm having a great time with it

>>1847806
the majority of the Steam reviews.
also according to me, because they half-assed offline PvE modes

>>1843650
aim training is a pointless waste of time, just play more

Is Squad or Arma 3 more fun to play solo?

>>1843650
lol no.

>>1777103
Me too
I'm on this board because I just crashed my heli and killed like 7 team mates resulting in a 30 minute ban

>>1786756
He was already hooking that's unfortunate. Probably more focused on not hitting the trees. I can empathize.

have they fixed Broken Arrow yet?

>>1786756
like pigs to the slaughter

>>1843650
I get aim training if you're big into competitive shooters or have the tism and like doing it with some music on. Aim training for tac shooters is just silly and laughable behavior.

>>1849978
Squad. You'll jump into a random squad and it's very likely you'll get bunch of people actually interested in playing together.
Arma is lone wolf country that pretty much requires you to find a group to actually enjoy.

Time to find the most broken spots, this one was just a test to see if I could place them on rooftops.
