The sequel. Insurgency Sandstorm. https://store.steampowered.com/app/581320/Insurgency_Sandstorm/

It has a ton of mods too, mod maps, etc. Overall pretty good for PvP, but the AI is kind of garbage and PvE always devolves into a horde shooter.

why remake the general here with all the games under the sun again? the only reason we did that in /vg/ was because it was too fast so all the games was done to try and keep it alive, its slow in /vm/ where a thread wont die until 10 days later. just make a thread for whatever game you want to talk about.

>>1431091
Because &tactical was comfy. And none of these games (except maybe for Squad) are popular enough for their own general.
>>

The whole point is not to "have a thread that stays up for 10 days", the point is to move the general from the gachafaggot riddled shithole known as /vg/ here.

I'm asking, because none of these games' playercount ever exceeds 10-15k concurrent players. Tactical games are not super popular sadly.

Most people who play tactical/milsim games are not very good at shooters. My friends who barely play any other FPS games and outright admit they suck at them can still hop on, do alright, and have a fun time. Just pick whatever looks cool.

Ready or Not is pretty popular too. Ground Branch is relatively popular. It's up to you what to play, really. Squad had some pretty cool mods like the Global Escalation that turn it into a slightly different (and more fun imo) game.

I don't care for names of gun's or vehicles or years of historical events, but I've noticed that these facts just permeate into my brain from playing war videogames. Is there a game featuring submarines that I can leverage for this? I need to be able to distinguish nazi uboots, and while there's a strangely large and detailed amount of information on them, and suspiciously yearning recounts of the gallant seemensch, the graphics are always grainy or wrong or ancient pixel art. My only other alternative are rare Revell kits.

>>
>>1439138
>cheap imitation
You have it backwards, cretin, this is a superior version of that general.

>mechcommander
Must have missed it.

Why was the mechashit removed? The explanation is simple: back in /&tg/ mechatrannies would spam the thread to the point where 80% of posts would be about mechashit, drowning out discussion of other games. So I made the decision to leave that shit out of this thread to keep the discussion healthy and diverse.
>>

/&tg/ will forever be missed. what the fuck is this bootlegged /tac/ shit? ive been gone from the threads a while.

Gacha shitters shit up /vg/ non-stop with their gay shit for some reason despite the fact that they have their own shit containment board. /&tg/ just couldn't keep up with all the gachashit spam, so we re-made the thread here, a much slower board mostly untouched by gacha shitters.

Lol why would I be thankful for that? The thread was made for OP's sake and hardly anyone else's, because he missed the real thing. I'm happy to leave /&tg/ resting in peace, it had a good run.

You seem to have been misled. PR is a shit, janky, ancient and no longer popular mod for a 20 year old game that was never supposed to be "tactical". It's not better than anything.

Squad is braindead, people are retarded just playing meatwave simulator, bad optimisation, shitty maps, i have 2k hours and like 1800 were pointless and unfun. Play reforger. Also where's arma thread?
>>
>>1446014
I had more tactical gameplay in pr than in squad. Again i have 2k hours in squad, playing sl or important roles, doing minimum 20-30 kills per game because people are retards going in a straight line from the hab to the objective. Play squad if you want to see how retarded are people
>>
>>1446285
>2k hours and like 1800 were pointless and unfun
In vanilla maybe (something I can't even bring myself to play anymore, really). I exclusively play mods and am having fun all the time. It feels like there's way less downtime in mods like Global Escalation, because it's designed to be less of a snoozefest, and it feels like you constantly get into firefights and there's never an issue with transportation, unlike vanilla.

>Play reforger
Unfortunately, the problem with reforger is that it has 1-2k concurrent players at any given time and most of them are burgers (I play on European servers). I just can't justify that price tag for a dead demo that might not even run on my PC all that well.

>>1446287
People in Squad are indeed retarded, but it's fun to kill them, and it's fun to coordinate with other competent players. That's why we play it.

I'd like to apologise on behalf of all non-retarded arma players for the spergs that flocked to the game post DayZ and are shitting up adjacent games.

PS: PR does many things better than Squad, the community was better, has better and more interesting maps, and features that, to this day, aren't a thing in Squad. (IR, planes, attack helos, Fire and Forget missiles, various eras for maps, VBIEDs)
Squad mostly looks pretty and has cool scope tech, can draw form the advantages of a modern, not reversed engineered engine and has the motherfucking Star Wars mod.

As an adult, i can find pros and cons in both games and like both.

Where can I get the best communication? I want to RP like I'm a tacticool military man.

Only in some faggot RP larperator discords where people gather for that exact purpose. You will never find anything even remotely close to that in disorganized server lobbies full of morons.

Like pottery. I blame the death of the arma general on /vg/ and the ultimate exodus of arma-fugees to /&tg/ for its death. They made it feel really uncomfy and constantly flung shit at everyone. You can pinpoint the exact month /&tg/ started turning to shit, and it was coincidentally the same month the arma general died for good.

>>1447415
Honestly, I have nothing against arma itself specifically or most arma players even, it's the vocal cringe faggot "true tactical" minority that takes itself way too seriously and feels the constant need to stir shit with fans of games they deem "inferior" or "not tactical" that's the real problem.

I don't even feel like i kill somebody, too many kills, it's like playing against bots on easy mode.

Played a match against the PMC guys yesterday. It feels like you're fighting against airsofters, their camo sucks, their vehicles suck, and they're really easy to spot in combat. Domed 6 of them in a row no sweat from a bush. Only way I can see them played well is bum rushing with techies and using the mobile APC respawn in cheeky out of the way spots behind the enemy's Frontline.
>>
>>1449431
I haven't gotten a chance to play since the patch, but i guess you just gotta play them like any irregular faction, avoid the direct approach and don't play it like a conventional force.

Is there a single multipler tacshooter that doesn't run poorly? Seems to just be inherent to the subgenre.

Squad/44, Insurgency: Sandstorm, HLL, and Arma all have frequent frametime spikes during gameplay and it ruins it for me, but I can play Cawwa Doody, Battlefield, Apex Legends, Halo or whatever and they will be smooth as butter at all times.
>>
>>1450148
I stopped playing that game because ESP and aimbot is common and people just shoot you through trees and bushes constantly despite being fully concealed. even admin'd servers dont do shit about the 80 and 1 bitch who you could spectate for 2 seconds and tell its obvious.
>>
>>1450643
How can you even tell who shot you if there's no name or anything when you die? Much less spectate them?
>>
>>1450538
Tactical shooters are CPU intensive because they have to do complex calculations all the time. Plus Arma specifically is a piece of abysmal outdated dogshit that only runs on a single CPU core because the devs who made it were retarded monkeys with keyboards and half a brain cell among them.
>>
>>1450657
Isn't the engine still largely recycled code from the Operation Flashpoint days?
Back in the early 2000s single core was the norm, and thus the Real Virtuality engine, even if updated with every title, has some old limitations deeply rooted in the core.
But i thought they had a major engine rework from A3 to Reforger, no?
>>
>>1450657
What are those games really doing, especially a game like Insurgency, that Battlefield isn't?
>>
>>1450643
Haven't played Squad but, for what it's worth, foliage can be pretty unreliable cover in a lot of games because there's a good chance at long ranges that they'll derender so people's computers don't explode.
>>
>>1450695
>But i thought they had a major engine rework from A3 to Reforger, no?
Hopefully. If Arma 4 has the dogshit performance of Arma 2-3 I'm not even going to bother playing it.

>>1450701
They simulate ballistics. Calculating bullet drop, speed, etc. I know that this is how it works in single player Arma and Squad 100%, but I'm not sure how it works in multiplayer exactly. Does your machine do the calculations or the server? In any case, even if all the calculations are server sided, that makes it even worse, because there can be dozens or even hundreds of players in a lobby and if the server/host's PC is gogshit (usually the case) then no matter what hardware you have it's going to run like shit. And Arma specifically will run like trash no matter what because of the shit engine.

>Insurgency
I think Insurgency is just poorly coded/optimized honestly. Specifically Sandstorm. Which may be an atrocious console port (just a speculation really), because the devs were obsessed with releasing it on console and growing their audience there.
>>
>>1450704
This is true for Hell Let Loose. You'll constantly see people lying in the middle of the field thinking they're being sneaky when the grass simply isn't rendering at that distance. I'm not sure if it applies to Squad though.

squad runs like shit, insurgency is pretty good on good hardware but maybe still stutters slightly sometimes, HLL is also pretty smooth for me in DX12 mode, absolutely fuck playing that game in dx11. but dx12 crashes rarely

arma all run like shit but reforger runs a lot better than the other games, still struggles to hit 60fps for me at all times despite being on pretty top of the line hardware but for how big the map is and everything its worth it, best mil sim out now

Tac and arma reforger. Look how beautiful it is. I don't need squad, specially during free weekends.
Btw the first time i played Squad was during a free weekend, they just added helies and we were dropped from one on the objective, then our HAT saw our btr and shot it lmao

Would anyone be up for playing Mechwarrior Living Legends on the weekend?

Pros:
It's free!
No grinding, no accounts, classic round action
There's tanks and mechs!

Cons:
it's old, and doesn't run great
Game is barely alive most of the time
There's aerospace and battle armor

I honestly wouldn't recommend playing old multiplayer games with strangers. They have tons of vulnerabilities and it's just not safe. They've been lots of cases of people's computers being hacked into when playing older CoD's and even older Dark Souls games.

Aaaaww, MW:LL is ded? A few years ago there was two full servers on weekend peak hours, and a single full server during workdays.
But i agree, FUCK Aerospace, way too tanky for the damage they can deal, they are effectively unkillable if the pilot knows what he's doing.

It's mostly dead. There's still some people playing on the weekends but its not as active as before. I've always liked some of the fast ground vees, almost any of the Chevaliers were good, the AC/10 one is a banger at start. I'm also a big fan of the classic 2 ERML ATM 6 Hephaestus, it's an amazing skirmisher unit and generally fast enough to get out of the way of brawlers.

I don't play HLL, but if its anything like Post Scriptum, where MGs have big ol' tracers and muzzle flash, you don't need to be a cheater to see the big obvious "shoot me" signal broadcast across the battlefield.
If he's new chances are he also sets up in bad, obvious spots, with a too wide arc of fire where he's visible from across many angles.
>>
>>1454258
MG's in HLL have tracers and it's fairly easy to pinpoint their position. They also make a pretty distinctive sound that's easy to pinpoint as well. You have to luck out and play in a server full of situationally unaware morons (or during a free weekend) to rack up ridiculous numbers of kills with an MG. Or alternatively you can just constantly reposition whenever the enemy discovers your position and you start taking shots.

>>1454560
It's the same thing in Squad. People in that game react to any type of small arms fire pretty quickly, which ends most attempts to flank or pull diversions behind enemy lines before you manage to do any serious damage. Which is why I like Global Escalation in Squad. It has suppressors, making it really difficult to pinpoint your exact location and flanking/saboteur activity so fucking satisfying.

Interesting that you say that, because that's exactly what kinda put me off from liking it back then.

>>1454258

You either join an armor squad or get on coms/team chat and ask for a gunner/driver. Also try making your squad right at the start (but with the proper armor name for vehicle claim) that way everyone joins and you can say

Yeah, it's more difficult cause you can't grow shit and everything starts off frozen in terms of food & water; they do give you a knife immediately to start a fire which is nice.. You can eat the snow but you get lead poisoning if you do. Map is shit since it's just a modified Tanoa, but otherwise it's fun. People are in general nicer too since if you KOS you're SOL, had a group of like 7 or so just chilling out eating fish and warming up by the fire. Might just be early days though.

Dynamic Recon Ops is probably your best option to go. ALiVE works for that too I think, you'll just have to go on the hunt for it to find what you want best.

Ye, i didn't follow the ArmA vs other milsim drama either, but /&tg/ turned into a blog for a few artists towards the end, while those were reliable bumps, there just wasn't much worthwhile discussion going on and the definition of "tactical" diluted more and more as well.

Yeah, lol. I remember at one point someone unironically started talking about My Animal Crossing and no one minded or cared.

They're both different enough games that their fanbases have very little overlap. Battlezone 1 (98 redux) has much smaller unit counts, finite resources and a much bigger focus on (You)r combat skills. Battlezone 2 (combat commander) is more like a standard RTS where the focus is on map control and controlling larger groups of units. Your individual contribution is less important than in BZ1 as long as you're managing your base/economy behind you.
Personally I like BZ:CC a lot more than BZ:R and I have hooked friends on it in the past, but both games have pretty much equal fanbases (ie they're dead as fuck but with lots of mod content)

I think BZ1 had much more entertaining campaigns, and the gameplay feels faster than BZ:CC; however, BZ:CC is better for multiplayer. It's less prone to random crashes, and the MPI mode is fun for comp stomping with friends.

But the BZ:R campaigns have a special place in my heart, maybe just because of nostalgia and also it just had the "cold war cool" thing going on

>>1495406
Only way that I am aware of is to keep them on hold fire. Stealth mode is also supposed to inhibit AI engagement range but I don't know if it works well for AT.
>>
>>1495406
Wasting? In my experience the AI will nail them no matter how far or fast they're moving. Sometimes T1000s shouldn't be allowed on the battlefield

gotcha, unfortunately not helpful the situations I'm thinking of. Say we're engaged with infantry nearby but a tank gets spotted. I want my dudes to stay in hard cover, fight the infantry, and eventually we can try taking smart shots against the armor. Instead they usually waste the shot immediately and we're left helpless once the armor starts coming for us

>>1495844
in my experience they hit the target like 5-10% of the time, 80% of the time it's a miss, and the last 10% it's five feet in front of them and they kill themselves and usually me also. I'm usually playing with RHS and 90% the launchers my retards are carrying are M136s.

It's also great when playing Antistasi and the enemy paradrops in light armor, and the entire garrison plus my squad launches 50 M136s at it as it lazily floats down and they all miss. And then it rapes all the infantry on the ground because they all blew their load early

Is everyone in your squad carrying a launcher? Keep 1 or 2 members in reserve on hold fire, target vehicle, while you and the rest deal with the close fighting. Then when the shots against the armor present themselves, order the reserve launchers to open up.

This will work, just stinks when a significant portion of your squad can't contribute to the fight, oh well. Been playing Forgotten Few 2, so you only get 6 dudes in your squad

NTA but in my experience it's infinitely easier doing it with real people than the AI.

>>1496146
Directing CAS or engaging armor with portable launchers? I get that both are easier with real people but for a quick and dirty op tard wrangling the AI is about all I have time for. Drongo's air ops has a mapclick mode that basically translates to, "Hey dude give me a gunrun/bomb on this grid, come in from the N/E/S/W".

That one, should have specified. Though I suppose both really.

Armored Brigade 2 release on the 19th, been beta testing it, it's really really good
>>
>>1497709
How detailed is the infantry combat?
>>
>>1497729
it's not detailed to the level of something like combat mission, but the scale is also MASSIVE compared to combat mission. the realism aspects of it are just so good, APM won't really help you here because even just giving orders has a delay depending on how far away the unit is from command units (there's a chain of command and information transmission that isn't instantaneous like most strategy games). the pacing feels REALLY good, things generally move a bit slower but then action happens fast when it happens. engagements feel realistic and are more about good positioning than spamming commands. if you're into larger scale strategy and aren't a graphics whore you'll love this. the graphics could be a bit better but they've said repeatedly it was a tradeoff for the smooth scale, and if you're playing this type of game that likely won't bug you. If this game had WARNO graphics it would basically be 10/10 for everyone IMO. i know i sound like a shill but i've been so excited for this game ALL year and the beta is SO FUCKING GOOD, there is just so much depth and replayability. A+ would recommend

There might be but it's a big investment to run one and organize all those missions and uptime on the server itself. It might be good but you have to think if you'll be able to be up to it.

I've been playing Isonzo for the free weekend and I liked it a lot. Decided to buy it so that I can experience the game properly. Right now it's just a CoD/BF fragfest, but I can see how fun it'd be with all the tactics and the coordinated pushes.

I have over 2000 hours in HLL and I needed something to scratch that itch as the community on HLL has been decreasing in quality. Nobody wants to take the time to explain new players what to do, so every game there's 10 people on each side running around the map, doing fuck all, people running away from the point as soon as they take it, losing it immediately. So now you have 10-15 players by the next point, just lost the previous point and while the team scrambles to retake the point they just lost the enemy is capturing the last point cause there's no garries there.

Question about Red Orchestra.
Does it have pirated servers? Shit is unironically too fucking expensive in my third world shithole and I've already spent my money on hardware upgrades.
>>
>>1505208
I've seen worse playerbases. If you remind teammates to defend the objective in text/voice chat they get the hint pretty quickly.

Overall I really like Isonzo I don't have much negative to say about it. The map design is questionable at times with oddly placed map boundaries, barbed wire, and spawns. I really fucking hate when I walk into a single strand of barbed wire that's put in high traffic areas for no reason. The only truly atrocious maps are dolomiti and the new one adamello but the rest are fine. Also it being WWI instead of WWII the weapon variety is not the best.

I actually already have a server going on hosthavoc, but I use it for myself and people I already know. I've been debating on if it's a bad idea to open it up to this chinese basket weaving forum.

I play insurgency sandstorm religiously, it's basically the only FPS I play and I've been playing for a really long time. The biggest issue with the game is ultimately playercount. The gunplay is easily some of the best in the industry, and the balance they've found between movement speed, TTK, and just in general the "difficulty" is phenomenal, perfectly positioned between ARMA/Squad on one end and COD on the other end. But there just aren't enough people, and specifically people of higher ranks. If I play in a lobby with friends, we end up curbstomping the game because 4 dudes with 1k+ hours are just on another level to anyone with sub 500; inversely, if you're in a game and the opposing team has a lobby of experienced players playing together it just sucks because the game is totally one sided. MORE PEOPLE PLAY THIS GAME PLEASE
I will probably stick to it till it dies or until I grow enough balls to try ARMA, although I have no clue how to get started
>>
>>1510618
shame, but not surprising considering how shit sandstorm was compared to the previous source ins
all the little tech things like movement, bracing, staged reload anims and so on were cool, but overall the gameplay was subpar, especially the maps were fucking trash compared to the previous game

If you think arma is complicated it really isnt if you played any fps game is past decade you will be good to go (only dif thing will be getting used to Space as use key) MP is litteraly Battlefield especially publics servers (KOTH) while SP has campaign to get you used to controls etc... And shit ton of modded content
>>
>>1510790
>space as use key
you have to be kidding me
is there no jump key at all? or is there no way to change binds?
>>
>>1510790
>it really isnt if you played any fps game
eh I've been paranoid ever since giving tarkov a go. Massive regret buying that piece of shit
>>
>>1510810
You CAN change the binds but it could effect other shit so its not rec also only action similar to jump is Vault with V (you can jump if you install mod for it but it REALLY isnt needed at all)
>>1510811
I also got Tarkov i played it for like an hour got fucked in the ass uninstalled it then never again kinda i tried SPT but nahh not for me i guess if you have any more q (You) can ask
>>
>>1510817
I presume most things I'd bind it to are already in use too?
And yeah that's exactly what I did with tarkov. I also thought the whole base system looked ridiculously complicated and like essentially just... work. Uninstalled, never touched again. From what I've heard since it hasn't gotten much better. Shame because it's such a cool fucking concept, basically what the battle royale genre should be as an ideal, but they bungled it methinks.
>>
>>1510823
>I presume most things I'd bind it to are already in use too?
Yeah but trust me you get used to it really fast
And yea for me Arena seemed interesting but apparently you have to pay for it so nahhhh
