Is Squad good? Is it similar to Arma III? Better? Watched some vids on youtube, it looks sweet.

Oh boy another one of these
So exciting
>>320656248
What's the general consensus? I've not visited previous Squad threads.
>>320656443
not worth the money
if it was $10 then maybe, but £39.99 for an unfinished spin off of PR is simply disgusting
And people were telling me this wasn't shilling.
Fuck off.
>>320657148
Is it really hollow? The maps look really empty.
>>320657247
I'm just asking if the juice is worth the squeeze. I'm not telling anyone to buy anything, anon.
>>320657383
it's a slightly better looking project reality with naffer animations and no vehicles
Yes, oh hell yes.
I have been blown away by this game. The sounds are so authentic to the weapons. It is amazing. I felt like I was in one of the YouTube videos of the real Amerocan dudes fighting in Afghanistan.
The game runs way better than Arma 3. I get a constant 50-60fps with my i5 780 ti on epic settings.
The weapons also handle like the real rifles do in real life. Finally for a fucking change.
Overall game was just released & missing some features they will be adding in. For example, machine bipods are not enabled.
This game feels like a grown up project reality. Like Arma & these games, you will not see who firing at you 80% of the time, it's glorious.
People use a lot of teamwork in this game like old RO & Arma online co-op squads. That is a plus.
If you have been looking for a good shooter since Red Orchestra: Ostfront or Insurgency. This is it my friend.

ayyy lmao

If you don't like hyper realism or play on a toaster, the game isn't for you period
>>320659140
>hyperrealism
>not seeing where your being shot from when being fired upon by 7.62mm weaponry in high vis conditions where shine, shape, shadow spacing and movement are perfectly visible, let alone muzzle flash and smoke
I can tell you have no idea what "hyper-realism" is
>>320655820
ARMA 2/3 will also be the superior game to this shit

Go get in a real firefight & then come talk to me civy
needs more guns.
>>320659826
>civy
>>320659826
pffft
>get fired upon
>immediately notice the flashes from the quarter right of the axis of advance
>hit deck
>no pops, derka's missing horribly
>fire in general direction after quick target identification
>smoke off derpa's AK literally acting like a 40mm beacon, flashes painfully obvious
>he dies
nice try kiddo, but the "unseen enemy" meme is ridiculous, most targets at iron sight ranke are usually 150-200 metres and makes targets fucking obvious. The only time you get higher target ranges are when the SUSAT's come out, and even then it's usually a max of 350m gun fight which is hit and miss due to win direction of general weapon sway
the video game meme of getting sniped 600m out by some AK wielding derka is ridiculous, and even a well trained soldier will miss his first quarter of his mag at 300m or so, more if the targets moving.

STOLEN VALOR
HOLD HIM DOWN AND PREPARE THE RAPING STICK
>>320660565
lel u would get shrektd in Squad
>>320660565
What part of realistic weapon Control did u not understand civy?
>>320661838
how many confirmed cleaned latrines you have soldier? :^)
>>320661838
but it's not realistic at all
give me examples of squad's weapon realism that displaces any of the comments I have made on weapon firing, which are themselves based off army doctrine.
>>320661838
it's also civvy, not civy you mong
at least research the terminology's spelling before using it to bait people
Pales in comparison to Arma 3
And since Comfy Cum Blanket likes Squad, Arma 3 is better.
>>320662193
The thing about Arma is you need some group to play and that's a bother for many people. Games like PR and Squad you can just join a server and get good teamwork in a combined arms scenario (Well not combined arms yet for squad)
>>320661976
Oh please, you have no idea of the terrain being used. Shooting someone isn't hard.
Play the game & find out ;)
Driving & posting & not giving a fuck civy
>>320655820
Why do people compare it to ARMA? Squad isnt even close to a milsim.
It's a lackluster version of Project reality for $40, currently there is only infantry combat. Very fun but there is very little reason to get it at the moment unless you want to support the devs. You might aswell play PR for now until Squad had more content.
>>320662291
>>320662563
Is that Audrey?
>>320659698
shack tack is the epitome of why arma sucks. Have you seen what it takes to play with them? You have to fucking read their huge manifesto, and send in an application and do an interview. Not joking.
In Squad you just click a server and join a squad.
>>320664126
>SHACK TACK
Play with Arma 3 General
>>320664484
They're cool, I used to play with them in the beta, however long ago that was. At the time though, I preferred PR. In PR you get 50 vs 50 PvP battles where you have a tank squad, a gunship squad, infantry squads, transport/logistics, and a commander all in communication working together. a3g games at the time were generally 10-15 guys doing infantry missions. Fun, but not really the same experience.
This is why Squad currently sucks ass. It's just infantry combat that arma ultimately trumps it at, but once the big combined arms maps come out small arma groups don't have the same scope.
>>320662563
god damn shes sexy
>>320657930
>No vehicles
>MGs don't even have bipods
>NO CONTENT
>Grown up PR
Gave me a chuckle.
I've been playing it's predecessor project reality for almost a decade now. I was one of the first people to contribute to the kick starter. I believed in Squad until I got to play the first Alpha. It's disappointing to be honest. Squad is ok, but it lacks the soul of PR. Squad is big, bland, boring and empty. I think it will take many years of development time to get the gameplay to a decent state. Save your money for when the game is fully done. Now you're just buying into an Early Access promise. With no guarantee of it ever being finished.

>outdated game engine
UE4 is already outdated?
