Oddly enough this isn't a personal thing, I play on the 40-1 servers a lot, mainly because it is one of the few places I can get good ping, and never say this stuff and obviously I haven't been banned but hearing about it happen to other people riles me up proper. That is to say how can this be seen as anything other than someone trying to 'get into the game' so to speak or just plain and simple have a bit of fun with the other team. Why don't u just surrender, soviet peasants?" and similar things is what really grinds my gears. Now I can sort of understand the heil Hitler remark (Although I would probably say that they weren't really trying to be racist but rather just playing along with their part if you see what I mean) but getting annoyed by someone saying "Another glorious victory for the reich. I went onto 40-1's ban page to see if I could find an example and I did. Oh, and another one would be the server 40-1 and their rules on well racism I do not mean people running around legitimately being xenophobic nor do I mean people going around calling each other the n-word trying to be edgy, I refer to when people get banned for being jovial with the other team like when someone on the German side insults the Russian side and vice versa. Yes, sometimes they're my squad or team leaders. Yes, I've encountered players who don't know what a bonsai or sudoku are. That Guy who comes on every now and then and does the whole realism > gameplay rant thing.Ĭalling banzai charges bonsai charges and seppuku sudoku un-ironically legitimately thinking that's what they're actually called. With a group it's fair enough since that shit's hard to get running, but being able to suddenly insta-buff yourself, tank a bunch of 30-06 rounds and stab a BAR guy who emptied a mag at you at close range is retarded. The instant triple health bullshit banzai charging gives. There should really be a level cap on squad and team leader roles of at least around level 30 or so.

You're seriously better off close range twitch shooting with a bolt-action even.

The pistols just feel.off, especially the RO2 ones. Alright maps, they just take fucking forever to finish and are voted in too goddamn much. Neither make for a good community in any case.īridges and Myshkova. I'd say a sizeable portion is, as per usual, edgelords and kids. The Red Army were pretty damnably cruel in their own right, but Stalingrad was on their defensive.īan them and see them form their own servers and you can see the type of community they like. Though I think that was NKVD, and well outside the scope of Stalingrad itself. Similarly, but less in scope in this case - a communist might prefer if they don't show the mass execution of Polish officers by the Soviets. "Clean Wehrmacht" Wehraboos like portrayals that portray strictly their primary roles as brave combatants as its easier to defend their actions as necessities of war rather than abject cruelties. No mass rape, torture, SS, retaliation attacks on civilians, complicity in the holocaust, abuse of POWs etc, etc. RO tends to focus on the direct combat situations of the Wehrmacht, which pleases apologists, as it will eschew the litany of war crimes committed (even by the Heer).

Shame considering the rise of Civic Nationalism in France at the time. Nationalism can pretty easily feed into racial chauvinism. I think any game that delves into European history will get some of this.
