MamayevKurgan is my favorite map but I'm noticing bugs that I never had a problem with in beta; getting stuck on trenches when crawling prone and not being able to crawl at trench entrances or not being able to stand/crouch from prone in trenches.
I can't understand the idea of limiting weapons to only a few people in Servers with 64 players, (okay maybe the MKB) but only Commanders getting G41/SVT40's means many will take those position for the rifle but might not perform the duties of the rank, and having anti-tank crews on maps where there are no tanks is not really useful but that's likely a server issue. It's useful to see bots listed in the server description but there is no filter to show only servers with or without bots. I also don't get the negativity about leveling and experience, it's not anything like Battlefield or Black Ops, you don't get Golden rifles or Freakish face masks? more like slightly quicker aim after 5000 kills or being a little more steady, which is like someone who has mastered their well used weapon. But I like the improvements, I still get sweaty palms and nervous when bullets are flying and that translates to immersion and having a real experience playing.

A quick quesstion.
I have just upgraded(for £1.25) to the digital deluxe edition. Does this contain the same content as the GOTY edition? On initial play it definitely seems to perform better.

Digital deluxe basically gives you access to 4 guns you wouldn't normally get right away and you also get some freebies for Killing Floor and Team Fortress II. There shouldn't be any performance increase that I'm aware of.

@Komemiute: I have submitted your suggestion...We'll see if anything clomes of it.

Cheers,

Fafnir_6

Your art is great! I liked the Day of Defeat one especially biggrin. Good times. My own art tends more toward the machinery side of sci-fi...See here: http://www.scifi-meshes.com/gallery/member.php?uid=455&protype=1

Eh, too kind.
I'm a self taught after all.

You should have seen my father's art, HE was GOOD!

Apparently the functionality of a cutscene skip is already in place in RO2. The level loads in the backbround and pressing escape after it's ready will bypass the remainder of the cutscene. Unfortunately, there is no way to know when the game is finished loading. It is certainly not ideal.

Cheers,

Sorry to bother again, then...
Is the Esc key depression buffered?
Can I press it as the Cutscene starts and hope to see it gone as soon as the load is complete?
