Why aren't you playing this masterpiece right now?
It's free and it's fun.
It's so good that I'm shilling for it and don't even get paid to do it.
>>329449019
downloading right now
It's okay, unless you know glitches/how to effectively destroy shit, then you'll get your ass beat
>>329449178
>using glitches
don't do that, don't risk mod's wrath
>how to effectively destroy shit
that's good skill to learn, and it's not hard to figure out what is effective against what.
I'm not a fan of multiplayer games.
>>329449019
Because
>not on Steam
>new OST is trash
>it's fun, but ultimately shallow just like the rest of late 90s - early 2000s multiplayer shooters
Though props to the guys who made the game, they're obviously invested a lot of time and dedication into making this.
How active is it? I've been meaning to download it for a while but never got a chance to really look into it.
Well, tell me then. What game is it and I might consider trying it.
It's the current year.
You need to shill your games with funky WEBMs.
>>329450067
>not on Steam
they can't due to EA. You can still import it manually, but gametime goes to Unreal Development Kit.
>new OST is trash
I agree, that's why I disabled it and I listen to some Frank Klepacki when playing
>ultimately shallow
I find it way less shallow than majority of multiplayer games today.
>>329450583
one full server at all times, 2-3 full servers on weekends.
>>329450612
It's spiritual successor to C&C Renegade.
You play as single unit and work with other players to destroy enemy base.
Game has gone trough some changes, but this explains things mostly accurate:

dling now will report if shit or not
Floaty as fuck and the guns feel like they're peashooters.
I usually don't like large multiplayer shooters, but I'll download this and Project Reality and see what sticks.
>>329450067
>Not on steam
What the hell does that have to do with anything.
>>329451805
You just need to git gud.
Base damage is extremely low on anything that's not a sniper rifle, but the headshot damage multiplier is 3x to 10x damage. The movement is much more reminiscent of older shooters that had quite weightless movement. You can instantly change directions which is a good tactic both to use and get used to seeing. Outplaying your opponent's strafing is a fun way to predict where he's gonna juke and get 4-5 headshots off, which will generally kill them unless you're a grunt and they're a 1k hero. Unless you're a shotgun grunt, cause being good with a shotgun is a great way to kill 1k heroes. They go down in 3 or so headshots with the shotgun.
Because it's a novelty game
AKA a meme
Also like 5 years old or something
>>329452714
The fact it feels like an outdated peashooter floaty game is why it's shit.
I'd rather play Insurgency, Red Orchestra 2 or Bad Company 2 than this garbage. It aged like milk.
>>329452816
Nigga I get it, you like realistic shooters more but don't be so pretentious as to think arcade shooters are obsolete. Go shitpost somewhere else, I play or played all four of these games and like them all for the things they do different, and also dislike parts of them for what they do different.
>>329453076
It is obsolete.
Quake 3 and UT are thousand times more fun to play than this.
The guns in this one feel TOO floaty and literally are peashooters.
The sound direction is absolutely garbage too.
Quake had very satisfying guns and sounds.
This game has wet farts.
>>329453153
Sounds like a serious case of opinion my man.
>>329453218
>YOU CANT CRITICIZE SOMETHING AND COMPARE IT TO SIMILAR BUT MUCH BETTER GAMES IN THE SAME GENRE
>IT'S JUST OPINIONS
You're not even hiding the fact that you're just a dev of this mod shilling for it.
>>329453267
I never said you can't criticize it, I'm saying you can't try to pass off your opinion as fact.
>dev
You do me too much credit. I can't even program a Boolean while loop correctly.
>>329450067
>I won't try/play this free game because it doesn't have a DRM
because the nearest server to me is 250ms and it has 2 people on it
YOu know that the game is ass retarded when for a legitimate good player the basic sidearm is better than both the assault rifle and the sniper rifle.
pistol
>hitscan
>accurate when aiming
>guarantee kills a guy with a few shots to head
assault rifle / basic sniper
>shoots slow as fuck rubber balls
>potentially even slower depending on ping to server
>takes gorillion hits to kill anything
>>329453576
>actually believing in lies of a game you never played
>>329453576
Basic sniper is hitscan.
Or do you mean the DMR? The DMR sucks, it's a noobtrap weapon by and large. The basic AR is actually really damn good at close range if you can predict your opponent's moves. It deals less damage per bullet but has a significantly higher RoF, so if you're accurate you can kill a lot quicker with the AR than the pistol.
Is it still either a < 1 minute building rush or endless slugfest?
Or does it actually have depth now?
god i hate fucking modern casual gamers
>durr weapons too low dmg! i need 1 hit 420 quickscope snipah kills!
>durr game too slow i need twitch cod run around like a retard gameplay!
>>329454053
where are my assblasted reaction images when i need them
>>329453881
Varies based on the map and whether GDI is any good or not.
If GDI is bad they get the fuck rushed out of them at the start and then lose. If GDI is good and Nod sucks Nod loses at minute 5 to the first Med rush.
If both teams are good it generally devolves into a siege and tunnel fighting until one side organizes a good rush or someone manages to sneak a nuke/c4.
The air maps tend to last 10-20 minutes because inevitably someone either gets a good chopper rush going and blows up the enemy base or someone gets dropped in behind enemy lines and c4s the rear buildings, while something like Island can go to time frequently if Nod can't take field early but GDI can't bottle up Nod. Generally if GDI can siege Nod they win in about 3 minutes if Nod can't push them back. It's a very dynamic game I'll say that much, the maps are the biggest indicator of how long a match will go. Eyes will got to at least 30, while I've not seen Whiteout go to time in 4 patches.
>>329454267
Generally as far as I've seen:
>GDI lasts long enough to afford a mammoth for every soldier: win
>nod manages to blow up the factory: win
>>329450067
>not on Steam
You are the cancer that killed PC gaming
>>329452767
>Only games that came less than 1 year ago are good games
psst, your consumerism is showing
also, how is it a meme game?
>>329454479
GDI spamming Mammoths on anything that's not Whiteout or that one island map with air units is a pretty good indicator of a bad GDI team, and a good or at least decent Nod team will just grab a bunch of AT and make short work of the Mammoth Horde before it gets to the base.
Mammoths are too slow and big to be of much use en masse. You get one, at most two, and three Hotwires to tank during a siege until everyone is ready to rush. Then he goes in first and absorbs as much punishment as he can while the mediums behind him penetrate as deep as they can and escort the APC full of Mobius's to the backline.
>>329454807
>good and bad teams
Nigga were we playing the same game?
Everyone was a lone wolf (or incidentally cooperative) pubber with a ping between 100 and 999999, there was no strategy beyond 'sneak in and break shit when nobody's looking' and 'get all the cash and flatten them in one big rush'.
>>329455009
When was the last time you played? Not to say pub games are great by and large but there's a decent veteran community now and most people will communicate if not coordinate.
Also I guess it helps I play with the devs on Saturdays where everyone on the team is on teamspeak.
>>329455256
It would be a couple years now. Tried it again more recently but all the servers in my country are dead.
The launcher says 4.02.
>>329454807
I would give my testicles to be part of the organised rush you just described.
Too bad that pubs are full of normies who don't even understand what is going on or how to cooperate.
>>329455427
update that shit, game is at 5.15 now and launcher is at 0.55
>>329455427
You need to download the latest version off the website. The old servers are dead, the new servers are quite live. Not bustling, but you can almost always find a game during the day.
Also the new client has an auto updater so if you do download it that would be the last time you'd have to do so.
>>329455553
Check the forums if you want to be a part of that.
>>329450896
>I find it way less shallow than majority of multiplayer games today.
its more shallow than cod and has shit gunplay, buzz off
>>329455653
>Check the forums if you want to be a part of that.
You mean PUGs?
Those are orgasmic if done properly.

I wish community would grow, so that we could have more than 1 server full at any time.
I only like to play as SBH and stalk GDI vehicles until I rob one.
Otherwise I play engineering to protect building because fuck my team I don't trust them to perform that task properly
>>329456475
>fuck my team I don't trust them to perform that task properly
absolute fucking truth, people in public matches can be incompetent as fuck
>>329456272
reminds me of this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGS3JXfc7_s
are there any other games where large groups of people use voice chat to actually coordinate and not just speak shit all the time?
Because player limits are too small. The developers could increase them but didnt. They are out of touch with the community hence why i dropped it.
>>329453650
kek
I played this shit plenty during earlier beta releases
>guns in general so shitty you'll get more kills spawning as engineer and just zig zag running through chokes while dropping down mines, then run back and repeat
installing at the moment
>>329457108
You do realise that there were attempts to have 64 player limit or even 100 player limit, but matches ended up being complete clustefuck due to maps being made for 40 players max.
I actually would also like to see 100+ players on the map, but map would have to be 4x bigger than current maps are.
I don't know how much programming wizardry would be needed to make UDK and serverside work properly with 100 players on fuckhueg map.

eh
wasted time downloading it
>>329457732
They werent a clusterfuck i played when it was first released when they had larger servers it was actually much more fun with longer games and bigger stalemates.
Infact only a few people complainec about big servers ontop of that most of the few where shit server operators that couldnt handle it. Instead of giving the community the option the dumbass developers closed it off.
You can always before join a smaller server but now you can never join a big one. Just another example of dumb developers limiting there community.
When devs dont put in the time to listen to there community and act like man children i instantly dropped the game sinxe it can and will only get worse.
>>329458647
shortest amount of time between installing and uninstalling a game, breaking Watch_Dogs' record of just six hours out of which one was actual gameplay.
FUCK YOU
>>329458647
>download from official site
>extract, install
>still need 1.5GB of updates
That's about 10 minutes of time, you fucking idiot.
>>329450067
>not on Meam
Retard.
>>329458910
Poor UX translates to low quality development which translates to no future.
It's a waste of time overall let it die.
>>329458910
>everybody in the world gets 2.5MBps
>>329459461
If you don't have at least 2.5MBps I take it you have more important concerns than playing video games, like going get some of the humanitary help we send you so you can eat tonight.
>>329459647
All those cheeseburgers you keep sending over land in the bush and get eaten by fuckoff big dropspideroos.
>>329459647
Ironically enough, he's probably an americunt.
Your internet is poor shite.
>>329450067
>not on Steam
I'm actually not getting it then to be honest
>>329460510
Why would you want DRM on a free game? It's not like devs have to protect their game from piracy. If anything, the fact it's DRMfree is very nice.
>>329460797
Because it tracks my hours and my friends see me play the game so they don't disturb me.
>>329460849
You can add non steam games to steam anon.
>>329461259
But it's just not the same.
>>329461313
You still get your autism hours counted. But yeah no 'tism achievements.
>>329458647
>still need 1.5GB of updates
yes, they are still working on including latest patch into game installer
>Unreal engine
is that supposed to be a bad thing?
>try "skirmish" ie singleplayer
>empty map
yes, you have to add bots manually
did you even try multiplayer?
The main aspect of the game?
What exactly did you expect, how were your expectations not met?
>>329449019
But I am, and it's fantastic. Latest two patches were sweet.
