RS2 does seem more prone to insta-death spawn cycles than earlier games in the oeuvre. I've had a few times where I just spawn and arty lands before I can take two steps or I spawn and a grenade lands at my feet, etc, and it just keeps happening for three or four lives on a rough defense or trying to make progress on an assault. Granted that's mitigated by spawning somewhere else or just waiting a bit, but running back and doing nothing interesting for a bit is sort of equally unappetizing. Still a drat fine game though.

Sdoots posted:So it turns out there's some pretty substantial bullet penetration in this. I was attacking Apartments on Hue, and the entire squad I was rolling with got wiped by gunfire that ripped through the walls. I lived because I was prone, and turned a little and fired full auto across the shelves on the right side of the room, getting a double kill and securing the capture. Yeah, the higher caliber rifle rounds will go through most things, and things like the wood shacks are especially worthless as cover unless you have something more in there with you. What's extra fun is the fire from the gunship will go through basically everything in the game, except the big grass pillars around some of the maps.

Mega Comrade posted:Pro tip, change the default rate of fire to single shot in the options! I actually started having a lot more success in most places with auto, especially on the M16 which is just eminently controllable in full auto. Still single shot for long range, of course.

Dark_Swordmaster posted:Yes, but what we're complaining about is the fact that a lot of the time the barrel is clear of an obstacle but you still hit it. I think but am not a 100% sure that the spooky is a point targeted AoE ability that'll go through literally any structure in the game, except maybe the castle in Hue. It's not a thing that shoots dudes out and about on the map, it just kills people in an area the commander targets and will happily wall hack you to do so. It's basically an arty strike with randomized death instead of wave fire.

My favorite part is the flamethrower team kills where you walk into your allies view, you know they saw you look at them and not shoot their dumb rear end, and then the spin up finishes and you roast.
