If Indoors and as a rifleman yea, unless you run into a SMG or a LMG you should be able to stab some panicked rifleman.

i honestly just wish I knew where the objectives are. Every time I open my map to know where I'm supposed to go the autists that have been playing the game for years and know exactly where it's at just shoot me in the head.

>>324268863
Yes and no
Rising Storm as japs yes because you get a health bonus but you're loud as fuck
Americans get no bonus

Russians and Germans do get a suppression bonus but it's very slight. You may want to consider it on Germans because it makes your player hold your weapon with both hands which may fool Russians into not shooting you but this applies to teammates as well and you may get TK'd

If you're new to the game and playing rifleman FOR THE LOVE OF GOD RESUPPLY MGS AND USE HMGS
HMGs suppress the fuck out of enemies, spraying in their general direction can stop an entire push.

So I get up to a point with enemies inside and check my map before throwing a grenade. Map shows no teammates in front of me. I throw a nade in and TK my guy.

Is there anyway to avoid this besides getting good? How behind is the map view when you check it?

>>324269953

>>324267793
>camp fest

You're one of those faggots that thinks you have to run around praying and spraying into cap zones and meleeing rather than finding cover and moving across open fields with support fire from your brothers arentcha. Fucking CoD players.

>>324270081
I have 400 hours in-game and I just encountered this same problem. It happened to me on Station, if that matters. I've never seen the map lag behind like that.

>>324269241
Hide behind something before you open the map. I use the map a lot to make sure where I am, and also to make sure there are no friendlies in the direction I'm shooting or throwing grenades.

>>324270412
Ctrl or whatever you have use binded too. I recommend binding it to G so you can keep your bandage and cover button separate. BTW you can press C to blind fire LMGs and HMGs.

>>324270081
Just comes down to game sense, the map is buggy like the rest of the game. Rule of thumb if you're not leading a push don't use grenades. Don't try to bounce them either until you have a lot of hours. Also avoid using them underground or in bunkers. Your assaults will try to push in after and you'll either kill them or blind them with debris.

Is it possible to resupply a MG more than once?

If you resupply a MG before they've shot it do they get extra ammo or does it go to waste?

>>324271660
Yes as many times as they need ammo but if you'll have to visit a resupply depot each time you do it.

>If you resupply a MG before they've shot it do they get extra ammo or does it go to waste?
I believe they get an extra grenade or something. Doesn't hurt, regular infantry are never at risk of running out of ammo.

How do you take your waffles, Fritz?

How do I make MG barrels last longer? I end up with a useless MG ammo aside.
also the C96 sometimes doesn´t let me reload even when I have ammo, am I missing something?

>>324272605

>>324273110
In terms of how long they take to overheat
DP>42>34
Just don't hold down M1 and change barrels often.

The C96 reload is bugged until 25. Not entirely sure what causes it but I've noticed it happens less if you don't fire it rapidly.

>>324273110
1-24 level C96 can't be reloaded when it still has ammo inside

>>324273110
If using the DP-28, it takes about three magazines of non-stop fire to overheat it. Burst fire with German MGs. Similar principles with American and Japanese MGs. Keep in mind that maps have temperatures, so barrels will overheat faster on summer maps like Spartanovka than winter maps like Winterwald.

C96 takes stripper clips before level 25. I never understood why you couldn't load it like a bolt action, but it gets magazines at level 25.

>>324274653
34 overheats like a bitch but outside of that it's the overall best MG. The DP's magazine, accuracy, and firerate is piss and the MG42 while having the best stats gives away your position and can't single fire.

There's a mod on the workshop called Pacific Armor that adds Japanese tanks to the game. I think it'd be interesting to give Japs these weak ass tanks on some maps, while Americans get no armor but simple AT weapons like satchel charges.

I got level 34 C96 and can concur it happens more often when you fire the last few rounds in rapid succession.
You really got to remember how many rounds you got left, what I did is to kill max. two enemies with one clip if possible then fire it empty slowly and reload.
It gets whole hell of a lot better and fun to use when you get the 20-round mags.

Well that how it was irl.
T-34 shat on german panzers.
Only few of the german tanks that had 50mm had subcaliber ammo that could penetrate around 110mm of armor from 500m but that was not enough for T-34s front armor.
The long barrel 75mm gun used in PzKpfw IV and Stu40 could penetrate 140mm of armor from 500m in 90 degree angle.

They fought under Kursk (the biggest tank battle in history) and overall over a thousand of those were built. An exceptional tank, really, but in the end they were too difficult to mass-produce and repair, yes.

Hand grenade kamikazes to a group of Yanks are the best as are booby traps. Booby traps are so damn underused, like with most FPS games people dont look up or down enough so even obvious one on doorway can net a kill. My personal favorites are bush nades above all, go play Hanto as a Jap if you've played it enough you know the common routes people do take and use bushes as a cover to hide so go into one of those bushes on main ways and plant a nade in there, unless they crawl little by little towards it they are not going to see it.

Have you ever played on 2.Fjg? They would ban for profanity. I remember one guy joined with the name "Bad Motherfucka" and he was immediately told by the admin that he was being kicked. He never even said anything offensive.

They were a really popular server in the US, but some of their members could be pretty grumpy. They just started a new server bu it's dead on arrival, something about them having a shitty map rotation.

>>324296439

Playing tank as russian is basically cheating, the T-34 can only be destroyed from front with an extremely accurate or lucky shot while the PZ IV gets blown up pretty much anywhere in one hit even with AT rifles, the T-60 is fucking invincible, even worse than T-34

The T-34 does really well if all the tanks in the match are being crewed by single players because at that point basically every tank is operating with a "two-man" turret so to speak, where every gunner is the commander.

The Pz4 really shines when you've got it fully crewed with a commander calling out targets for the gunner. That extra awareness is huge and lets you shit on T-34 while they blindly look around through their parascopes trying to find what's hitting them. Not only that, but I find the turret is pretty easy to pen on T-34, knocking out the gunner really messes them up because you need to bring someone up from the hull to crew it.

It's more or less like real life.

I play slavs because they tend to be losing, not because I have a boner for the T-34. The optics on the P4 are much better and I find it easier to protect the weak spots. You have to have a hill to protect the turret ring on the T-34 but any waist high cover will do for the P4.

>>324299974
>the T-34 can only be destroyed from front with an extremely accurate or lucky shot
Aiming at the corner of the turret ring is a guaranteed crewman kill, and you can hit the center of the treads to do engine damage.
>PZ IV gets blown up pretty much anywhere in one hit even with AT rifles
This is a matter of P4 commanders being bad at their job, it's not that difficult to keep the P4 alive even on bridges. Learn to play AT and you will know how to counter them.

I will give you the T-70 though, that tank is 100% bullshit.

>>324300467
If they're a vet I'm sure they'll appreciate it.
Scrubs will get pissy about it though.

>>324301372
The PZ IV gets fucked up by AT rifles 150 meters away even from the front.
If there is even 1 competent AT rifleman you need to stay at least 200 meters away if you want to live.

>>324301598
Yeah I had a guy get pretty mad and he TK'd me a few times after. It doesn't cost any extra tickets to put them out of their misery right?

>>324302263
You'll have a score penalty if the guy you killed doesn't type NP. Also, some servers have rules where you get auto-kicked after a certain number of TKs so best leave it be.

Um no? You cover the engine block and the only other options he has from the front is the MG/Driver seam which requires him to be either at your 2 or 10 o'clock and be ground level which severely limits where he can hide. The only exception to this is the PZB which can penetrate the commander's sight but if you're paying attention and constantly suppressing them this shouldn't be too much of an issue.

it's a tough game to come into as a newbie. have like 90 hours played, I started to get some feel for RS by that point. Regular Stalin campaign was mostly too hard, just because you don't know the details of the maps, where there are passages and holes to shoot out of and such

>>324305196
Yeah learning the maps is a large chunk of being good at game. Following your SL around and listening to him makes it a bit easier though, if he's any decent he'll tell you where to setup and what angle to watch.

Fuck i love this game. Best WWII shooter of all time imo.

If Rising Storm 2 is this but maybe a little more polished, it'll be fucking amazing.

I wonder if it'll have dynamic music as well.

Why...Why did he cut away the trigger guard?

Any one want to share some tweaks that may give you an advantage over other players?

I know putting foliage on low and shadows on low can help you spot other players.

Avoid being prone in grass unless enemies are close because far away enemies won't render the grass you think you're hiding in. Bushes never disappear I think.

I prefer regular RO2 but yeah, Rising Storm is pretty great. I get total sensory overload on maps like Iwo Jima when there are just dudes dying all around you, artillery going off, smoke making it hard to see, etc. You either just gotta stop and drop and wait for it to clear or just push through and pray you make it.

Its kinda depressing no one will ever get to use troop carriers

Used to get many iron crosses for driving the boys behind a cap and purging it of commies

>>324311727

troop carriers are mostly pointless because the battle is decided by tanks and infantry can eat a dick.

no one even tries to climb on them so drivers don't bother waiting either, there's no safe place to unload and the villages are stupid small and exposed so there's hardly a point in clearing them out and trying to dig in.

the two extra fields to cap make it pointless to fight for the villages.

I almost feel like they should put the BAR in the Machine Gun role with a bipod along with the M1919 and maybe add the Thompson as an option for elite assault/engineer, and add the M3 Grease Gun as another alternative for elite assault/engineer/squad leader.

Johnson rifle would be awesome too. I loved that thing in MoH:Pacific Assault.

>>324312903

my main problem is that most people don't own RS to begin with so the fights are bolt action rifleman 90% of the time.

they should really open another role for the guys who won't buy, they won't be convinced until they try assaultman.
