Red Orchestra 2 is probably your safest bet.

There's hundreds of lines of characters whining, moaning, yelling, screaming insults/pain and so on. Final stands in the objective are pretty intense when your teamate gets dropped and gurgles blood for a few minutes or whimpers to mum. The Jap VAs do a really great job, very enthusiastic sounding, and their death screams from flamethrowers are electrifying.

The initial assault on New Year's Eve 1995 ended in a major Russian defeat, resulting in heavy casualties and at first nearly a complete breakdown of morale in the Russian forces.

As a former hospital corpsman, I can tell you first hand that I was a combatant; I lit up more than my fair share of sandniggers.

>The film was shot in chronological order over a period of nine months. Aleksey Kravchenko says that he underwent "the most debilitating fatigue and hunger. I kept a most severe diet, and after the filming was over I returned to school not only thin, but grey-haired." The 2006 UK DVD sleeve states that the guns in the film were often loaded with live ammunition as opposed to blanks, for realism. Aleksey Kravchenko mentions in interviews that bullets sometimes passed just 4 inches (10 centimeters) above his head (such as in the cow scene).

Right? That's not something to be proud of. Who comes into this thread and admits to being the fucking scum of the earth. We should learn from all of this and not repeat the same mistakes but instead "lol i shot civies helping wounded tangos because they were ragheads and im so edgy" Seriously, fuck that guy.

I feel like we're lacking games that actually capture the horrors of war

We have plenty of games that have great battles where one or two sad things happen like one of your allies gargling after taking a bullet in Red Orchestra. But no games where it actually feels like you're fucking a long drawn out war or feeling the after effects of your battles. This War of Mine was pretty good for it but that's all I can think of

Sometimes I like to think of the guys in the squad I'm leading in Arma/PR/Squad as being truly dead when they die in the game just to make things more interesting.

Geneva is more of agreement along the lines of "You don't do the nasty stuff, and I won't do it either, alright?". On a large scale, Geneva works. Gas attacks, mass executions of POW, operations in enemy uniforms and all the other dirty tricks are for the most part not used by conventional armies.

There will always be tons of small violations, but nobody really dares to break it big time because then the other side would also play dirty.

>The ground operation was conducted by D Squadron, 22 Regiment Special Air Service—who assaulted Gberi Bana in a bid to extract the Royal Irish—and elements of 1st Battalion, Parachute Regiment (1 PARA), who launched a diversionary assault on Magbeni. The operation freed the five soldiers as well as twenty-one Sierra Leonean civilians who had been held prisoner by the West Side Boys. At least twenty-five West Side Boys were killed in the assault, as was one British soldier, while eighteen West Side Boys—including the gang's leader, Foday Kallay—were taken prisoner and later transferred to the custody of the Sierra Leone Police. Many West Side Boys fled the area during the assault, and over 300 surrendered to UNAMSIL forces within a fortnight.

I really want some sort of a game where you take a role of a simple soldier and survivor in a middle of some immensely violent and horrifying conflict who sees enough shit for multiple lifetimes but endures and presses forward. Not even necessarily set in our world, just without too much of stupid magical or sci-fi elements, maybe with some unique and distinctive technology.

But they're not, they all just want to go to Germany because Germany just gives them loads of money. They go through about 15 different countries not involved in any wars to get to Germany.

>>323951763
How dumb are you?

I'm arguing that both are based on the same thinking. You think that someone *can* "deserve" X or Y (based on the assumption that some things are good and deserving, and some things are bad and not), and yet you oppose the concept of an omnipotent deity (which is simply one manifestation of the above)?

I dunno, I enjoy war games but a game that would truly simulate the horrors of war sounds like a test of willpower than a game.

My family is German, and my grandmother was in Dresden when it was firebombed. The few stories she's told me about the event make me glad I have never even had to worry about experiencing that. She said the bodies were piled over the surface of the water in the Elbe river from people trying to put themselves out. She lost a few brothers to Russian prison camps. Her father some how survived the Russian prison camps.

My great grandfather refused to join the Nazis. He was a free thinker and communist and he and a buddy were thrown into a prison camp not too long after the war started. Eventually he was given the choice to join the army and fight or to rot in the camp. He chose to join cuz he had a family to feed but his buddy didn't so he stayed in prison. My great grand father became an engineer building bridges for tanks and shit. He told my grandmother about going to relieve someone on watch who was frozen holding their binoculars to their face. Sometime around Stalingrad he and some buddies said fuck the war, stole a kubelwagen, and started driving west to go home. They ran right into a Russian patrol and got captured. He survived siberia, somehow. Apparently the Russians were so poor that their officers didn't even have windows on their huts.

After the Russians took east Germany my grand mother ended up working for a local commissar cuz she knew how to type. She said the Russian soldiers spent all day riding the street cars up and down the streets cuz it was so new and high tech to them. They were a nation of peasants after all.

Not sure why you would want to have a near real experience like that but whatever. Most Americans romanticize war because they've never had to experience it on their own soil.

RO2 is pretty fun. I play it every so often for that big WWII feel that is absent from games now.

Man, the Volkssturm story was so fucking sad. I mean, war is tragic throughout, but at least there's some sort of end goal in sight. The only reason the Volkssturm died was because Hitler had an Ego the size of Russia and just felt like more Germans should die for no reason. It's tragic how one man's stubbornness can have such a huge effect on so many.

The first wave of Soviets on their path to Berlin were polite, they were professional soldiers, they fought with honour, They would greet civilians, check for weapons and be on their way. Conscripts (which made up the majority of the second wave) though, they lacked discipline, they were known to get rather unruly. By unruly I mean crucifying, raping, torturing and killing thousands of German women, children and elderly people. The Soviet second wave was utterly unmatched in its brutality in this sense. On the western front the German civilians welcomed British and American forces, though they also committed their fair share of heinous acts towards civilians, they were angels in comparison to the Soviets.

It seems to be a formation made with the presumption that if it is going to be attacked, it's going to be attacked directly from the front, and so that is the situation in which it should be used. Notice the tank is only scanning a fairly narrow angle in front of it.

>>323955792
It's an attacking formation, I can only imagine using it if you know where the enemy is with absolute certainty, in that case, it seems pretty effective. The infantry have moving cover and can just burst out from behind the tank into the surrounding area.

>>323955010
It's just a drill to get the infantry working with the tank crew.

In an urban setting, you're going to have far less people hiding behind the tank - maybe the section commander and a couple other guys - since he talks to the talk crew commander via a telephone. The rest of the section is going to be on either sides of the road. Keep in mind you can't have guys in front of the tank because the 120mm concussive wave is so powerful that it would deck you, and if the tank fires sabot, then the sabot pieces detach and have a danger zone of up to 50m.

In a field setting like that, the infantry would be spread out in a line, if they don't have their transport.

A Combat team attack, the APC/IFV will pull up alongside the rear of the tank, infantry will hide behind the wall of armour calling out things to shoot for the tank and transport.
