Thank you for sharing your in-depth and well reasoned argument.
Will people in Japan or Australia be playing this?
I sure hope so.
>>320225817
Unlikely with the current exchange rate and insurgency undoubtedly going on sale again this Christmas.
I'm just glad they fixed the key binding for azerty players... It was getting old having to dig into that messy input config file every single update.
So what is Squad, exactly? A mix of non-shitty BF2 controls with complexity of ARMA?
>>320228868
>complexity of ARMA
Not even close. I'd say about the same complexity as BF2, maybe a little less.
>>320229016
What's the point if BF2PR exists, then? Visuals?
>>320229097
I don't know, why are they still making Heroes of Might and Magic games when the formula was perfected 15 years ago, and every game since has been a little bit worse than the one before it?
>>320229354
Because it's Ubisoft milking an established franchise. Squad is made by people who spent years turning ARMA and BF2 into a really fun experience, I kinda expected their project to be a love child of both rather than a half-assed clone.
>>320229097
A little more arcade game that focus on teamplay and give the tools so random people can organize themselve in a decent fighting force.
Also, the quantity of maps, armies and assets in PRBF2 make it really enjoyable.
>>320216267
Did they fix the scope bug? Dont own the game, but from streams it was terribly misaligned.
>Early Access
Yeah, nah, I've learned my lesson already.
>>320223383
Well yeah?
Been playing it for the past 2 hours. It seems like a solid base for Project Reality 2, but it needs a year to catch up for features.
After that though, we got modern day Project Reality and I'm happy with that.
BF2's engine had limitations you know. This actually does serve a purpose.
The game is going to be legit, but it's just too lacking in content. I played the alpha for like 20 hours but I can only tolerate so much free fob AAS on tiny afghan map. When they get helos, armour and jets in the game it's going to be a seriously amazing experience, especially if a competitive scene pops up.
Played like 2200 hours of Project Reality desu.
>>320229097
BF2PR was limited by being a mod to a closed source game. There was vehicle capacity limits, draw distance limit (affecting gameplay not just graphical quality), lack of all kinds of mechanics like dragging bodies, proper structure placement, projectile physics, decent flight physics, etc.
the point of the game is to essentially take BF2PR but make it better in every conceivable way.
How does this game compare to Red Orchestra 2?
Is there actual 50v50 servers?
How big are maps?
>>320231660
Completely against vehicles and jets. So many games that do this better already. I just want a good Insurgency for a change.

not yet apparently, Usually it looks like max 72 servers are doing.
It is really lacking in features. And many things are just placeholders. I'd say wait a year until you give this a proper go. And I'm saying this as a kickstarter backer.
>>320232582
Eh just looking for something new, Insurgency isn't doing it for me anymore.

>>320229016
What complexity Arma3 has really? I only have 820 hours on it, played OFP, Armed Assault and Arma2 a lot more. I keep hearing that shit but I really wonder...
The controls are overcomplicated, movements are still way too clunky.
>physics are messed up in every vehicle
>the netcode is absolute crap
>perfomances are an absolute joke
>fire controls for jets and tanks are, except for thermals, WW2 tier technology
>body armor is still poorly simulated, so is vehicle armor
>no tactical reload, no accounting of last bullet in chamber
>inventory is a glitchy mess, gets you killed just as often as poor collision with vehicles and rocks do in multiplayer.
>engine can't even simulate underground bunkers, nor tunnels, you can only put hollow object in your map hoping it won't kill people randomly
Arma2 actually had some awesome mods but Arma3 still lags behind and you just can't remove the worst issues this game has.
>>320229097
Visuals are great and it runs good.
Netcode is excellent. During the Alpha I was playing on American servers without even noticing it.
Animations, body awareness is perfect.
It's a lot less clunky that BF2, I honesly stopped playing PR years ago because of that. They got away from many BF2 engine limitations moving to the EU4, very promising for the future.
Only problem with Squad so far is that it lacks content obviously... It's gonna get better of course but I doubt it'll ever reach PR's height in that regard.
Nice samefagging and advertising. Looks like another Greenlight scam game to be honest pham
>Double the price of Arma III, a vastly superior game
lmao
>>320216267
Apparently the games is also very expensive in shit tier parts of the world such as brazil, turkey and eastern europe. So the game has also this going for it.
Who the fuck is this for?
Its not for milsim fans, because they play PR which has more content and a bigger community.
Its not for milsim fans who want a shitton of customisability and scenarios, because Arma does that.
So who the fuck is the target market? People who want a gimped Milsim that will take years and years to even get on par with PR?
>check steam hub
>doesn't even support 1920x1080 16:9
and it's a flop
>>320234284
I bought ArmaIII for twenty five euros back when it was in alpha... Bought the Squad Leader pre order for Squad and am already much happier with it.
I'm really not into KoTH/Life and other meme game modes though.
So the way they did a custom release time is pretty neat. Instead of waiting for the 1:00PM update time, they just set the release date to yesterday, causing the game to go live immediately.
Has any other game done this?

You do realise that the game will be like PR just without the limitations of the BF2 engine, right?

Oh baby. I really should reinstall windows.
>>320234713
Feel free to read my post again and feel stupid
Same situation as arma 2 to arma 3. PR to squad is just paying for pretty graphics and NO CONTENT.
>>320234194
The stance adjustment system is complex in comparison to the rest, yet incredibly usefull and functional. Most vehicles while not perfect, have particular damage models compared to the rest combined ops games. Helicopter flight controls are more complex than the rest of combined ops games. Penetration modeling is great. Navigational opportunities are both there, are necessary and impactfull. Incredibly large scale makes it highly dependant on teamplay and modable to the point of adding complexity ontop like the healing system and object interaction.
Game is unpolished as fuck as you said and i have my own ideas how things should work as a long time player since OFP. But lets not suckle the cock of squad to make it look not as bare bones and a questionable purchase so early on.
Its definetly more aproachable than arma3 and hardly a comparison because of that as the pace of the game and a tone feels diffrent.

The success or failure will entirely be up to the community quality
PR only works because the community is scarily good. Both relaxed and patient with new people. Probably because they are so desperate for new blood and the mod is losing players.
Im putting my money on the community for Squad being shite. Being on steam it will be too mainstream.
>>320235346
Sorry im just not that sort of face fucking random people guy
>>320235127
If he won't, I'll do it.I hope you don't mind gagging though.
>>320234394
So far it's pretty much PR gameplay wise. Except it gets rids of PR's clunkyness, adds way superior visual fidelity and an excellent netcode.
The target market is the same as PR would.
Unless you've been stuck in a timeloop or haven't played anything but BF2 in the last twelve years, it did age like shit. PR just feels clunky to play, hideous to watch and its player base shrinking.
So far content wise its pretty limited. But it's bound to improve throughout the early access.
>>320234698
You really are a sad troll.
>>320234194
>Arma2 actually had some awesome mods but Arma3 still lags behind and you just can't remove the worst issues this game has.
I frankly think that the Arma series is suffering from Engine Fatigue. Bohemia is still using the same tech as 14 years ago. Sure you can upgrade it all you want and that might be good for industrial use (MilSim for military like they used to) but I don't believe it's good anymore.
Upgrading an old engine is still as complicated as making a new one, maybe even more.
They should probably spend some time making a new engine or maybe use UE4 since it's deploying a lot of big scenario optimizations and data streaming.
>>320234284
>a vastly superior game
It's a semi-realistic modding platform on the worst engine known to man. With mods? sure, it's okay, if you can accept ~40-50fps on modern high end PCs.
>>320235371
>Being on steam it will be too mainstream
Depends, to find it you'll have to specifically looks for "simulation" in the catalog.
So it means you have interest in it, it's all that matter.
I trained enough people on A2 to tell apart the kind of player that will make it and those who are a waste of time.
>>320234890
Well at least the fidelity is there in Squad. The content in Arma3 is just random as hell...
Anyway the game has been in early access for not even a day... You guys aren't reasonable.
>>320234284

>>320235698
I hope they are scouting for opportunities it seems it wouldnt be wise not to. Perhaps theyre working on it in the shadows, Its obviously an era of multicore systems and the longer we go the more apparent the drawbacks of maintaining it will become.
Though that said, they've did a hellova good job updating arma 3. Not the netcode sadly, but the game runs way better than arma 2 did for me.

>>320235371
Not so relaxed... What I remember most from PR was the little corporals who would just push you around for not following their every single little instructions, worst case were the admin ones who kick because you don't use your mic.
Squad so far seems a lot more relaxed, although the teamplay is definitely there. I'm actually more encouraged to use my mic on this.
Steam isn't all shit.
>>320236050
Weapon, gears and camos used, the animations, the effects, environements. Everything looks credible in Squad.
>>320235973
So did for me, and I'm running on a toaster. I was more amazed by how they implemented a new movement system because that made the gameplay a lot better.
I just want to say what an utterly shit name they picked
I mean squad? Really?
>>320236421
I agree on that. I constantly for some reason think of Rainbow siege when i hear squad.
Its such a generic term.
>>320236421
Well the game mechanics are based around that so it makes sense.

>>320236532
It makes sense but it's shit fucking name. It would need like a subtitle or something. Makes it hard for people to find the game as well unless they know exactly what they're looking for.
>>320220010
Well at least the content is authentic, properly animated in first and third person, account for bullet in chamber and does tactical reload.
I would have gladly paid 60 bucks for Arma3 if it did any of this.
>>320220108
They don't get any money from VBS. BI simulation is its own company, they don't share profit nor ressources. Moreover both engines are quite far apart from themselves and their common ancestry.
>>320228868
PR without the hideous graphics and general clunkyness. Content is barebone so far but very well detailed and animated.
>>320235973
As far as we know they are working on mixing their two proprietary technologies, Real Virtualty and Enforce engines into the Infusion Engine. They are gonna use this to finish DayZ standalone, so we'll see I guess.
>>320232029
It's a lot more slow paced than Red Orchestra 2, there is a lot more teamplay going on. No such thing as a one man army in Squad.

>>320241926
How much players does the game support?
>>320242979

Does Squad have Qom?

SQUAAAAAAAAAAAAD
>>320242979
Currently 72 but they're aiming for 100 per server.
After watching some gameplay footage I still vastly prefer ArmA 2
It's a damn shame that ArmA 3 sucks
>>320238557
Arma 3 is properly animated
I don't know why you need bullet in chamber but theres a mod for it

>>320245678

The devil is in the details anon.
>>320245818
It was also a shell of a game with very little content. Calling the alpha "vastly superior" is just a straight up lie.
>>320245678
No it's not.
The reloading animations are completely wrong, and made by someone who hasen't the slightest idea how these gun operate.
The game doesn't have tactical reload. It cannot be done in Arma games, because the Real Virtuality currently doesn't support multiple reload animations for a same weapon. They actually went into a lot of trouble just to finish up the under barrel grenade launcher animations.
>I don't know why you need bullet in chamber but theres a mod for it
Are you stupid? And no there a no mod for this.
>>320246297
>The reloading animations are completely wrong
No they aren't.
They aren't well made, but they are accurate.
> doesn't support multiple reload animations for a same weapon
I does now but they haven't moved it from Dev mode.
>there's no mod for it
yes there is
But you don't need tac reloading in a game where the animations are already fast as shit,.
>>320242498
I hope you meant A2 Fallujah when
>>320246447
Stop lying pls...
I do play this shit, have short of a thousand hours on Arma3, I read every single dev branch changelogs and follow the forums everyday, I'm also a gun enthusiast.
The reload animations are not accurate, if you know anything but guns you would realize that.
They did refine the grenade launcher animations, but you still can't have more than the one reload animation per weapon.
And no, there isn't any mod simulation last bullet in chamber as far as I know. Either post a link or shut the fuck up.
>But you don't need tac reloading in a game where the animations are already fast as shit,.

Yes people used to play milsim on a milsim game, unbelievable

Had something like that this morning... Retards in the opposite team put the fob right on the flag in a small campound. These idiots put sand bags to block the arrowslit kinda windows... We kept throwing nades inside, used my shovel to open one of the windows, their fob was right in front of it... These retards kept spawning there until they ran out of tickets... Did like 25 kills...
>>320247424It hurts my soul every time I see Arma 3 streams on Twitch and every single time it's some guy playing wasteland and his chacters has shorts on and some sort of AR and maybe a hightech helmet and he's just going around alone being lol randumb for his stream and running between building trying to scavenge something meanwhile nothing really seems to happen

>>320247637
King of the hill is the only fun game mode I've played on arma. 3 teams, upwards of 100 people, all fighting in the perimeter of a city. Your team has to have the most people in the city to get points for kills, first to 100 wins.
Sadly the game mode is a laggy piece of shit due to the sheer amount of people and I rarely get over 40 fps, so it hurts the game play a lot. Still by far the best game mode in Arma especially if you have some squads actually working together.

>>320247504
I was behind enemy lines in a bush picking off people running up a river
I wish they would have implemented swapping weapons into your offhand for peeking. It is unrealistic and awkward to peek to the left while still having your gun on your right shoulder.
one thing I don't get is why the maps are all huge 4km ones when they don't have any vehicles yet
surely it would have made more sense to have shit like Fallujah West, Asad Khal and Ghost Train
>>320249340
Coming sometimes around the end of the year. UE4 doesn't support getting into vehicles by default so they had to code that in by themselves. A bunch of different vehicles are already done when they get the code in so there will be a lot of them at once.
>>320249340
It's coming. You can see ingame screenshots of humvees, pickup trucks, russian trucks and even motorbike.
I'ld suggest you read the Monthly Recaps on their website. joinsquad.com/#updates

I imagine Squad killed it though
Are there ballistics on the weapons in squad or is it hitscan?
>>320249704
That's what I've heard but we're talking about a relatively small team making a niche game so don't count on it. Might be two weeks or four weeks or more if something goes tits up.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBaQ4lo-igs
that's a trailer from June so as you can see all that shit has been done for a while apparently except the getting into the vehicles part. They said something along the lines of having to film that shit by spawning the player in the vehicle in some awkward way.
>>320249975
realistic ballistic. and from what I've seen it seems to be pretty close to actual realism and not video game realism where realistic bullet drop is considered that the bullet only flies about 100 meters.
>>320248492
Insurgency, patrol ops, VIP, etc are all better gamemodes
>>320250147
Nice, sounds like good news.
Hopefully they'll add the ability to swap the hand your weapon is in. That will make leaning a lot better.
>>320250147

Here's a forum thread about this shit if you care. Just ctrl+f developer and read their posts and ignore the dicksucking and asslicking by the nobodies to make it a little more tolerable.

Legit question
Why do you guys still fall for early access trash?
Yes, i know that this was made by the developers of Project Reality, doesn't change the fact that this is a completely unfinished product that doesn't deserve your fucking money.
If you bought this you're retarded.

>>320250768
It's basically an investment in the company for future dividends.
>>320250676
Lack of content, laggy, missing mechanics, bad level design.
It ran well though.
>>320251028
Except you don't actually get any sort of dividends and you just get the product you paid for but you get it a little earlier in a broken state with no promises of the future.
That faggot is edgy as fuck for coming into a thread with his ebin reaction images but let's face it. EA is not some sort of investment and is almost as stupid as pre-purchasing. If you buy EA games (like I do sometimes) you should at least be honest about it and not lie to yourself.
>>320251236
I've jumped on about 5 EA titles thusfar, including KF2 and Starbound and everytime it's the same disappointment.
We can have long discussions about how the whole EA concept doesn't work but in the end there are a few title for whom it does work and actual devs delivering.
Prison Architect and ARMA 3 comes to mind.
What if, just what if, Squad is another one. It does seem like another military shooter, but it'sn ot your battlefield nor call of duty and it's something you should check out if you're into FPS games. It does the realism immersion quite well to be frank.
>>320250768
Because they have no publishers and wouldn't be able to make the game without the money they get from pre orders? How about you stop being such a edgy child?
>>320252009
>This
>>320251236
Yeah but then without EA they wouldn't be able to make the game to begin with. This is a risk, but then again it's only 36 bucks and I'm not a fat ass neet who can't make a living.
>>320252191
>it's only 36 bucks

>36 dollarydoos
>>320252191
Yeah I agree with you that's why I bought the game too because I want to see it happen and I have at least a little bit of trust in the devs but I also don't try to fool myself that it's a good idea to purchase and that I'm somehow investing in something. Like you I'm well enough financially that I feel comfortable to spend that sort of money. The way I evaluate if a EA purchase is worth it is if I can get enough fun out of it in the current state that it is now and if I do that then I feel like I've got no problem with it. That's how I'd rate a released product as well.

There's far better games that cost less.
There's a difference between paying the proper amount for what you get and get jewed.
Ironically, Even KF2 is cheaper and it was made as a cash grab.
>multiplayer only game

Well they signed their death warrant.
>>320250768
I'm probably not going to play it, anyone that even says they will try to make a PR clone will get my money.
You guys are retarded. If you're interested in milsim type games buy it; if you don't like the game then return it. It's that simple. I bought it and I'm having loads of fun. Not that any of you would know about that.
>>320253204
There's a difference between no content and not a lot of content. Half a dozen big maps and 72 player servers and a game that fundamentally works is something I'd much rather pay for than something like KF2 which has design elements that I actively disagree with.

Hopefully the community migrates from PR standalone over time. PR has loads of content, but it's severely limited by the aging BF2 engine.

>>320257219
year ago the devs released an updated sound pack that had files ripped from a bunch of recent first person shooters.
they claimed it was all original material for their mod.
it was filled with battlefield 3 sound effects.
if you posted about it on the forum, you were banned.
these are the people you are giving your money to. Its your money, do what you want though.
This game is not a milsim.
It has some realistic features but gunplay is similar to Americas Army/BF but slower.
>>320257346
Nigga this aint 2004.
>>320257470
Do you have any sort of links to back up these claims? I'd be interested to see them.but even then I can think of a lot of more awful things than stealing soundbites from EA
>>320257470
I like this. Is is like a mashup of good arcade and good realism. Reminds me of AA a lot. Loved the fuck out of that game.

The reason I stick to PR is because it runs on BF2 and I can run that

>Stealing from DICE and EA
then I'm definitely going to buy this game!
I always loved Project Reality but this really doesn't have enough content in it yet to justify me buying it. I don't want to start playing it and be disappointed or bored soon after. I'd rather wait a year until it has more content, vehicles and custom maps galore then join it when it's in its peak.
>>320258348
you'd actually be paying money for DICE/EA assets
>>320258502
But EA wouldn't see a dime.
>>320258557

game is fucking boring and unfinished

The point is to avoid getting shot you silly goose.
>>320258502

Shouldn't you be fixing your star wars failure?
>>320259010
there is no way to avoid getting shot unless you want to sit prone on a hill for 45 minutes at a time like the rest of your "squadmates"
good luck shooting back when only 2 people per squad are allowed an optic sight on their gun so enjoy squinting to be able to make out the pixels on the horizon to shoot back at
did i mention you could have your entire 9 man squad on a point and you can't even begin to capture it if one retard from the enemy team is prone in a corner
good game

Ignore him, he's either a EA shill or a butthurt BF/PR fan.
why the fuck it cost 37euros, thats like AAA money.
but I already have insurgency
>>320259438
if insurgency is the "realistic" version of cs then this is the "realistic" version of battlefield.
>>320259438
Insurgency is 128 players on a huge map with vehicles though anon.
I've been playing Squad all day today.
The sounds, visuals, most of the UI design and gun handling I'm quite happy with but when it comes to performance, not so much.
There's an absolutely huge map that just cripples frames and makes the game unplayable, its probably a few kilometers in size across and every game I've had on it has been an experience of an unstable crippling frame-rate, stuttering and at worse freezing for seconds at a time. I dropped graphics settings from high to minimum and that didn't help at all. I have a feeling the blame here is on the engine with such a big map combined with 50 players.
On the small 300m by 300m urban map performance is very playable but the stuttering is still there for me. 100 fps when the map was empty of players and on minimum graphics though.
i5 and a GTX 770, I may move it to an SSD later to see if that helps.

>>320259151
>there is no way to avoid getting shot unless you want to sit prone on a hill for 45 minutes at a time like the rest of your "squadmates"
You realise this game is supposed to simulate real life to some degree right? You seriously can't be stupid enough to just run alone at enemies hoping they wont shoot you right? Move with your squad, work with them, take it slow.
>good luck shooting back when only 2 people per squad are allowed an optic sight on their gun so enjoy squinting to be able to make out the pixels on the horizon to shoot back at
How about some very basic communication with your squad? Though since previously you said you don't like doing what your squad does I'm thinking you're not much of a team player. Try listening to people saying stuff like "enemies northwest" or "enemies 330" then look for movement, muzzle flashes or ask for someone to tell you exactly where they saw the enemy if you're totally hopeless
>did i mention you could have your entire 9 man squad on a point and you can't even begin to capture it if one retard from the enemy team is prone in a corner
>At least 3 players need to be within the capping radius of a CP to capture it – at the start of a round, a neutral CP can also be capped by one player alone. Cap time is approximately 60 seconds. The more players are inside the radius, the faster the CP is capped. If players from the opposite team are in the capping radius at the same time, players from the teams will cancel each other out. The team with more players in the radius will gradually take the CP.
From the manual
You're just fucking stupid and I probably shouldn't have even written this post because you seem to be ready to quit on the game which is the best option for all involved.

I love flanking and scouting ahead. Its my specialty. I have a gift of not being seen by people.
>>320260035
Autists moan about every fps being like CoD (even though they aren't) then moan when they play them like CoD and keep getting killed.
They then blame the game for their own stupidity and thinking it is actually like CoD and also moan about not being able to play it like CoD.
Sometimes I want to kill all of /v/.
Are there medics in this?
What can they do?
>>320260563
I have the same problem with my favorite gaming buddy. I'll play a game for 50-60 hours by myself. Tell him to check this game out its pretty fun. Then he will play it for 20 hours, get angry at his own faults, bitch about the mechanics of the game and I lose interest in playing the game because of it... My wife won't play FPS games with me, only likes pokemon.
>>320261006
If there are medics what do you think they do?
>>320259951
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZSGK9NV0Hmo
Ok. So one of the devs (who apparently wasn't a dev at the time he stole the sounds so the actual PR team didn't have any say in it) made a sound mod for PR and was a bitch and claimed the stolen sounds as his own. That's pretty lame. I don't really think it would've change my mind from buying this game though.
>>320261006
Revive and heal. Every soldier has a bandage to stop bleeding but only medics can restore health. If you get shot, bleed out or something you can get revived if a medic gets to you in time. If you get blown up by a grenade or shot raelly bad you can't be revived.
>>320261006
Yes, implementation is similar to PR but with it's own take on things.

Without a description of the mechanics, Heal and revive.
