If you scroll down you'll see a post by /u/3lfk1ng which I think captures the community's thoughts quite well.

Never once seen this before either so must be a special circumstance, rpg direct head shot? You can get blown up by an artillary, napalm dropped on you, have an entire LMG unloaded into you and you can still have the bizarre death drops, minimal blood and your body instantly disappears after death

You can shoot someone directly in the head with a shotgun and their entire head will come off. Same with the legs and such. Artillery is gonna turn you into mince meat, which it already does in game. Napalm...it's fire, it'll stick and burn on you until you die, which, again, it does in game. I don't know about the LMGs but most people fire into your chest, not your arms or legs. As for your comment on swearing, find me more than 5 instances of swearing in RS1, and then compare it to RS2. You'll find RS1 was more family friendly language wise than this game. RO2 admittedly had the Germans and Russians swearing quite a bit, though I could only understand a bit of it because I used the native voices.

"You can shoot someone directly in the head with a shotgun and their entire head will come off." I'm sure this happened all the time in vietnam, maybe in the tunnels, which are almost never discovered in game anyways. Again it's like the grenade thing, they give some realism in times when it doesn't matter but there are plenty of ways you can be shot, blown up, mowed down, fall over after shoot and it's completely unrealistic, makes no sense, goes against laws of physics.

Artillary does not always do that it's irregular, I've seen bodies still in tact that had a bomb dropped right near them with almost no blood.

The napalm is usually fine but the animations suck and the voices are goofy.

The game simply isn't at the level where the blood impacts would show realistically and the blood spots in game don't make sense. The healing system is simply dumb and on the level of basic FPS. Why not just add a juggernaut perk instead?

You are trolling. You know that the reason bodies don't stay on the ground is because its just one more thing for the engine to render and it will almost certainly increase frame rates.

Napalm animation sucks? Ok bud.

Tunnels rarely found? Ok bud.

Arms and legs getting blown off from being shot? Big splashes of blood when getting shot? Do you know what realism is? Have you ever seen anyone get shot? There's not as much blood as you think.

Artillery shells not always blowing people to pieces? Large explosions can kill even when there is no visible damage to the body because of overpressure. All it takes to kill someone from an explosion is a tiny splinter of shrapnel. That does not usually result in a lot of blood.

Maybe you should do your research first before posting garbage. Maybe you should join the military and see what war is really like to satisfy your craving for realism. Or maybe you could just quit trolling and play a different game.

Well, Tripwire is like the ubisoft of realistic historical fps games. Starts with a poor release, gradually shapes up to be a better game, but itll never be perfect and some flaws will remain.

Exactly. Take it for what it's worth. If it doesn't do it for you then find something that does.

That being said RS2 : V at least isnt completely terrible at what its supposed to be, and at least it was nowhere near as broken as R6 : S at launch. Its also less broken that R6 : S now.

I mean.

1. The game literally has everything he says it lacks. It has the blood, dismemberment, screaming, lingo, swearing and bodies. Honestly. I don't at all think he has played the game at all. RO2 had the language censored. RS2 does not.

US doesn't use the word Gk, Aussie's don't say Cnt

Yes the napalm animation sucks and the voices make people laugh, it's cartoonish. The sounds in RS2 are trash compared to RO2.

Tunnels are found after the SL is long gone, no one uses voice soon enough for it to matter, the enemy is gone. Most of your tunnel experience in this game will be walking through them to find no one.

The bodies should fly, it's not realism what it is now.

If a bomb drops right next to someone shrapnel is going to hit them for sure. If it doesn't what does the pressure from the bomb do to the internals of a human body? Pressure is going to cause the eyes to burst out, blood gushing out from every, etc but of course in this realistic game they just fall over with the goofy death drop like they got shot or some other bizarre animation and then disappear

Were you in the military because apparently it gave you a PHD in physics and an MD in medicine.

Well supreme cuck, I guess it's time for you to play ARMA then. Maybe they will die and cuss more realistically for you lol. And yes I was an infantryman in the Marine Corps with two combat tours in Iraq.

As much content as it lacks, i find it to be more polished and fun compared to RO and RS1.

[AccelExhilar]

Some of you guys actually talked to a troll writing paragraphs of opinion for 2 pages? Come on... This thread doesn't really have anything of value, it was started on false assumptions / lies. I actually went too the OP's link and read the post in question which this thread was meant to be about, it's title is "Why did RS2 Vietnam Flop Badly Compared too HoS". Which in itself is a lie, then the up-voted comment is filled with miss-information / blatant lies. Now you guys have taken time too discuss some random's oppinions about RS2 lacking "Nudity" - yes that's an actual complaint of the random troll and gives him away.

Move on guys, this is such a joke of a discussion lol.

Have you played the game for more than 5 hours? There’s plenty of swearing. Still I’d personally like more

Youre also pretty toxic in game too so I don’t really take what you say very seriously

โพสต์ดั้งเดิมโดย =(e)= Lemonater47:

Again that information is outdated.

They changed their minds after posts like that were made. I mean it's probably the reason why the OP is deleted. Cos the circumstances changed.

I never once heard the words "god" in any of the swearing, that's what the post was about. Sure they added back swearing, because of the uproar. They actually tried to release this game with no swearing, lmfao!!! If no one had said anything, they would have kept it that way rofl. But because one christian dev wouldn't continue the project if the words god were added in, because gore and napalm and death and war is fine, but saying the lords name in vain thats where the line is drawn! None of the soldiers in vietnam ever said that bad word!

Also remember they took out all nudity and racism, because neither of these things were in vietnam either and we have to make sure no players ever become offended!!

They also took out extra gore like arms and legs falling off, because everyone in vietnam died, fell over, then their body (by magic) vanished.

That's how petty the creators of games are, no one wants to deal with a dead game with creators pushing in their own trash and ruining emersion. Everyone saw how different this game was, a kiddy verison of RO2 with less features.

" also pretty toxic", yeah everyone who doesn't walk on egg shells is "toxic"

hope you enjoy your zero player base dying game while it lasts, since very few people will subscribe to your level of non-toxicity

Take an RPG, blow someone up , film it and then tell me you don't see dismemberment.

With proximity voip, it is now the players job to cuss at the enemy.

Nope, sorry, every server on RS2 implements an "anti-toxicity", "anti-bad language", and "anti-racism" clause. Any of these things in game will be met with a swift force of dedicated internet moderators to step in and stop the oppression!

Because we all know how open, accepting, and caring the GI's were of their friendly Asian counterparts, very realistic, very emersive ;)

If there is no clan members/admins online on the servers be as racist and toxic as you like nothing happens, Its great everyone is talking, roasting and being complete idiots.

I hate admins, Its like having your mother about when you had friends over as a child. No fun.
