  1. Well, many years ago, i have found Project Reality mod for Battlefield 2, and despite the game costing about 25€ back then, plus recieving (late) patches, wich really reworked the game, the last one even included two booster packs, the mod is free, hence it being the mod. That mod for me isnt worth 60€, but 100€/year easily, yet it is free... the team, (mods and community managers included) has about 150+ members, all coming from their own time and pocket. The ammount of contet is mindboggling and they aren't stopping anytime soon. Well, im sure, if it was their engine, theyd charge for it, but just to tell you there is some "free" games out there. I can see though, BF isnt EA/DICE/Ubisoft etc tht makes millions and every penny counts...
  2. Its a bit meh, youre better off with Red orchestra Darkest Hour IMO. RnL is just clunky and unfinished...
  3. Thanks. I am very aware that its for buisness, but to go so low... Lost all my respect. Its like BMW selling a bicycle and naming it M5.
  4. Also, you dont need to win every battle. Do as much as you can in those 50 minutes with minimum casualties and let the game finish and take you to the next scenario.
  5. Yeah. 4th one is off the charts though. Some fictional rambo company. It might be good, but why keep the name is beyond me.
  6. I split teams into supressive and assault (done simply by command) and use them as the names suggest. Works like a charm. I avoid the assault order. I like to micromanage.
  7. Such a nice looking map! Keep up the good work.
  8. Then WEGO is for even more hardcore wussies? I respect everybody regardless of the mode they play in and how do they play it.
  9. Id say "SchtooG", its how germans would say it, so yes, listen to stoex. Word "Bocage" is also pronounced in 8635836583 ways. I personally use it with the french accent, "bocaaage".
  10. Yes its possible, like with infantry. It might be a bug on your side, or youre doing something wrong?
  11. In order to play RT succesfuly, you have to pause every 2 seconds. I dont play it from a top perspective at all. Start of the game is auto paused. I issue small orders to get in some spreaded positions etc. I start the game, wait 10-20 seconds after spotter teams get into position, to spot for possible enemies. In case of enemy fire, i immediately hit escape to stop and assess the situation. If i can find enemy right away, good, if i cant, i zoom out and unpause, to see the tracers again and pinpoint the location of enemies. As soon as i get the approx location, i pause again, set up orders, like you would in WEGO, but only to a point when i will repeat the before mentioned procedure, look for targets. I will keep repositioning and pausing and making plans until i reach the desired state. I pause again, plan the attack and unpause, to watch it happen... upclose, far away, however i want. I dont miss on anything. Incase a new enemy unit pops up on the flanks of my attackers and surprises me, i stop immediately again, and it depends on the situation what i do, maybe call off the attack, or go for the neares cover with all units in the attacking force, while dealing with the newfound enemy with the closest unit. I dont miss anything, like some of you who are saying, that only in WEGO you see everything in motion. Not true. In RT there is the pause option for a reason. RT forces you to paly reasonably, not just fix the turn youre about to do, until its perfect and then lean back and watch in satisfaction. In RT, i get the satisfaction at the end of the mission, when i see i lost little to no men.
  12. Kinda necro, but better than starting a new thread. I can see the benefits from WEGO. You can plan, rewind, fix and also see everything at once carried out. Though RT appeals to me much more, because same can be achieved just lacking the rewind option. Its a tradeoff for instant pause. So its plan, stop, fix. Just takes away the ability to correct your mistakes completely and rather react to the occuring situation. For H2H WEGO is the only option. RT just gets annoying above company levels. In singleplayer, if you want the full experience, you go RT and play it out WEGO style, with pausing an planning. You get one shot to win the mission. In H2H its more like a board game, faceoff of the commanders, therefore WEGO, while RT would be only good if it was more players controling parts o your troops so it would be more like a team vs team. Only then RT doesnt bog you down.
  13. Control + lmb is change of window/door position per face per floor. Even more win, didnt know. Im getting carried way too much into details while making maps.
  14. What the screenshot shows, only i wouldnt set it at 45 deg. I go in the same direction.
