You might have some rose tinted glasses going on, that game barely worked

I mean the physics were weird and the infantry combat was bad but it worked fine enough for me.

You could damage mechs as an infantryman by running under them and spraying bullets up their exhaust vents or whatever, I thought that was a nice touch

pros just blew everything up with the pilum tho

It was p good how almost every server MoTD opened with some variation of

"Welcome to our server please don't move the titan everyone have a good time be polite and have a fun time just please do not move the titan seriously we will ban you do not move the titan"

Comedy is basically self-deprecation.
i was playing dust 514 and it kind of reminded me of 2142 and just how loving badass it was to be in a full APC and have everyone launch their pods onto the enemy titan. and yeah it was just a clusterfuck of grenades but god drat it was intense inside.

i mean dust doesn't have that poo poo but as far as a f2p shooter goes its not bad

We don't need Rome telling us what to do.
the best part of 1942 was sneaking into the enemy camp and placing landmines in front of the airplane landing gear
