Run and Gun? Spraying? No way! A perfect WWII shooter!
This is a WWII game about the Russians and the Germans on the Eastern front (aka Ostfront), which took place from 1941-1945, thats how the game got its name.
This is probably one of the best FPS shooters I have ever played. I used to play the CoD series, then got this game, and I was amazed. It has everything CoD has and more. There are very few bugs, great maps, and its very realistic. If this was CoD2, I would have to say it would be the best game, but its not CoD2...its RO!
The developers attention to realism surprised me...it was amazing. The radio in tanks and between team members actually sounds like a radio. You have to press "fire" to empty the cartridge on a rifle after you shoot. The radius of a grenade is huge, just how it was in real life. You have to go in prone to get the most protection. There are not realism and you can't see how many shots you have fired in a clip. If you are shot it distorts you vision, the iron sights sway and they sway even more when your stamina is drained.
The developers did a great job. I have only seen one glitch with a rifle where you can fire it in full auto mode. There MP it not glitchy and there is usually not much lag.
Even though this game has great graphics, your graphics card doesn't have to be that good. I have a really bad graphic card that can barely run CoD series and its maxing out this game!
This game needs you to work as a team. Loners will not survive. If you like run and gun this isn't a good game. This game requires you to use your iron sights. There is no cross hair and its virtually impossible to hit an enemy without them.
Team play. Tanks have to work with infantry. Squad commanders need to support tanks and infantry with artillery. Machine gunners have to provide support for rifle men and the tanks. Light machine gunners need to provide support fire for everyone. Everyone has to protect the light machine gunner. There are many relationships between all the classes.
Many people know how tanks will effect the game play. Will it be tank wars where tanks will attack infantry? No. You will see tanks will be paying attention to enemy armor, not infantry. If you are not in armor tanks would probably leave you alone. I've ran through a tank battle of about 4 tanks on each side and I didn't get shot at once by a tank. The infantry needs to take care of these infantry people. Infantry can destroy tanks with AT guns, explosives, and arty.
Well it takes a long time to learn this game...I still haven't learned using the iron sites so much. But after some practice you will get it and be able to pwn!
This game is a great game and I highly recommend buying it!
