This is World War III. If the Russians have a badass vehicle like the BMP-3, why won't they actually use it?

I didn't know the war against Chechnya was/is also called WWIII :p


Maybe they'll get it when they fight conventional armies, who knows...

Still, I want more "Russian Overkill" even if it's against irregular rebel forces! Six BTRs and two T90s is close, but not close enough. :)

.85 is great but I do have some problems with it (Not as many as I did with .8 though).

The biggest problem I have right now is the stealing of uniforms. I've only played for a day and already I've killed teammates because they looked like enemies and have gotten killed by enemies because they look like friendlies. This really has to go in .9 because it's both very unrealistic and leads to loads of TK's and deaths.

Other than that there are no major problems. I love the new deviation system since I can accutally kill as an insurgent now.

i dont think this is going to be a lasting problem. ive already gotten over it, and ive only played about 15 rounds since .85 came out. give it time and treat it like real life. you will get used to it. let this change slide, its ok.

You know what is even more UNREALISTIC? Taking another armies' weapons when you have ammo for your own. Real soldiers will stick to their own weapons when possible, not just pick up stuff because they find a insurgent AK to be cool. Stick to your own weapon because you know it best, thereby more effective. But I also understand that this is a game. In a way, this bug will discourage people from stealing weapons, which actually increases "realism."

well insurgents love those american kits, when they get on top of buildings the americans don't shoot at them because they see the helmet and think "yay my friends are there, OMG, Friendly Fire, Friendly Fire! WTf man, OMG, OH! Enemies, that Roof, they are hurting me! omg, ouch, the pain, Do Not WANT!"

yeah, i know that too, but the fact I'm trying to get across is that it wouldn't let me get a pilot kit from anywhere around the chopper. i tried a few choppers n i couldnt get the pilot kit for them. managed to get one from the supply crate(?) though

and another thing is, I was on a server with a few clanmates. i got killed n it told me i had 5999 seconds til respawn. i was like WTF!! i will find out which map it server it was on, as i cant remember but im sure one of them will and post it here

The militia maps are not part of World War III. When the Russians are fighting the NATO/allied nations, then they will be in WWIII.

This happened to me when I selected an officer kit, which wasn't available. I just chose a different kit and *SHAZAM*, respawned in no time!

Indeed, just pick a non-officer kit ;)

People who are having crashes etc., please check the announcement I made.
