No thanks. WW2 games were the "zombie" games of their time, and their return is nothing to be celebrated.

3 LEVELS OF WARFARE

>STRATEGIC

>Play as the Commander and decide on the grand strategy as you deploy your forces and adapt to the ever changing situation on the ground. Communicating via radio, it will be up to you to summon reinforcements, supplies and powerful aerial and naval strikes while accurately assessing the situation on the front line.

>OPERATIONAL

>Establish supply lines of trucks, transport vehicles and armored recovery vehicles. Supplies will allow your forces to construct minefields, defenses, and Garrisons. Failure to supply the front line will result in a devastating collapse.

>TACTICAL

>Play as an Officer and establish Observation Posts and Garrisons before working to determine the best course of attack or defense for your unit. Mark targets with your binoculars to notify the Commander and work together to flank, reinforce, supply and obliterate the enemy.

i guess they could've made it 100v100 but that would kill a lot of systems and if you tone down the graphics in favor of gameplay a lot of people would bitch that it's not good enough for 2017 or something idk

> 2 Men control a tank in this "Realistic" WW2 shooter.

Dropped.

I have doubts it will ever reach 100-player matches.

This project is dead before it even began, they are going for the same scale Squad is going for, 100 player battles, 4x4 kilometer maps, logistic systems etc, but with a team four times as small.

>>383694998
to add to this, the Squad team has almost 40 full time devs, while the Hell Let Loose team lists developers and "repeating collaborators" under the same list, a total of 9 guys, meaning that some of those dudes only contributed assets and aren't actually full time devs.

Still, they are going for the same playercount, map size and and name something like Red Orchestra and Project Reality as their main inspirations.
When the development of Squad is already slow as fuck, what will this then be?

I sure as hell hope they succeed but I doubt their planned kickstarter will go anywhere

The best part of WW2 games is the wehrboo salt that exists even when the Germans are stronger

>>383696112
The problem is that Squad and Post Scriptum are hard games to market, with BF2-quality assets and models. Hell Let Loose at least has that aspect covered.

Or you could just wait until Battleground Europe gets ported to Steam, at least that game has an original setting

You have zero understanding of the differences between a console multiplayer game and a PC one, don't you?

Oh boy another no budget multiplayer shooter

>>383687506
The WW2 games are not back IT's just the new cycle of gamers grown up. Thus the new target audience which is 12-13 years old now need to be satisfied. So if you still play games you is on their lvl.

i welcome WW2 games, the """""current""""" ones are irrelevant and no one plays them.

>>383687901
>ww2 were the zombie games of their time

The battlefield franchise alone has 1 WW2 game and 4 games set in modern warfare setting.

get educated before talking shit

>>383696337
The assets themselves aren't that bad, but they keep lowering the lighting quality to adress the porformance issues instead of actually fixing stuff, the game seemed to look better in earlier alphas.

yeah, they devs said they wanted it to be like company of heroes. like, if you don't capture fuel reserves, you can't deploy vehicles. sounds good but i don't know if the devs will be able to pull it out and make it balanced.

If it were up to me, we would never be so disrespectful to make interactive entertainment this particular hell. I don't think a lot of us deserve it.

>>383697929
It means they're using a free engine and have very likely no idea what game development is. Just take a look at all the Unity and UDK trash that's out there.

>>383697902
It still runs like shit, but you just need top ends specs and run everything on low to get to 90+fps in all battles

>>383687506
Who wishes that they DID make a WW2 arena shooter, instead of war simulator #6,000,002

>>383687574
I had this exact same thought

another DOA milsim

100 players at once sounds cool though, too bad modern shooters won't do that because they don't know how to design maps so it always devolves into some kind of chokepoint clusterfuck or snipers and vehicle whores everywhere

>le reelistic WW2 epic large combat multiplatform based gonna sell 8 million on ps4, shit overhyped wariowar gay trash thats being shilled
wew

>>383698196
Which is why the planetside 2 community is actually using single core cpu's to get the best performance, which for the most part they have to buy second hand because they're not being produced anymore.

>>383698121
Guess we should never make games or movies about war ever again then.

What'd be cool is if it was 100 players vs AI or some shit. Taking part in missions like D-Day (as an example) only the Commander/High Ranking players in the game get to choose exactly what to do. Follow everything to the tee on what the Allies did or just send all players on an airborne invasion.

>>383698121
yeah let's just completely ignore history and just forget about it too because muh feelings

Fuck you

>>383698320
how do devs manage to fuck up so bad and still keep their jobs?

>>383697718
This plus
>no console version

If the did that, they'd get day one buy from me.

>>383698320

>>383698331
>players vs AI
NOT FUN https://youtu.be/9K7n7x08fwg

>>383698442
Because for most of them you never hear again.

For example, the Sleeping Dogs devs made a Unity moba game a while ago. It ran like absolute shit, because they didn't knew what Oclussion Culling was and they were loading THE ENTIRE GAME into the ram that consisted of 8x times the duplicate asset, which ran down to like 10 gb - instead of just loading assets on demand when the level was being loaded. It just kept re-loading the same assets over and over until your ram was capped.

You'd think the Sleeping Dog devs would be competent enough to load assets properly? You'd think wrong. They had to hire another company that wrote a tool for them that would forcefully flush bits of your memory. This triggered a ton of crashes, BSOD's, etc as well.

I honestly don't understand why they don't learn proper game development anymore. I have a friend who majored in software development and they don't learn anything. It's all about design theory and buzzwords like AGILE and that you should make use of free libraries and free engines as often as you can, even resorting to 100 mb libraries if all you need is 1 tiny function. They don't know how to write shit themselves anymore.

I just hope they won't go for Early Access.

Though I'd like to see Soviet-Afghan War game. Little hope for Rising Storm 2 expansion.

>>383687901
Shit taste confirmed. Zombie games are shit because zombies are boring to fight. Ww2 games are boring because??? No reason whatsoever except for being tired of the aesthetic, which only retards feel.

Ww2 games encompass RTCW, Moh:AA, and Red orchestra. All entirely different shooters with completely different gameplay mechanics, all loosely based on the same setting.

ww2 has been done to death

the only unexplored aspect is playing as the japanese/italians/nazis to try and explore their historical perspective, which a mainstream game will never do because NAZIS WERE EBIL
