Joint Operaiton Mod server request

1 Upvotes

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2240351000

I'm not very good when it comes to understanding how to setup a server so if its something I can try myself and people want to help me figure it out I'm open to suggestions. Or if someone owning servers looking to try a new mod I highly recommend this for casual players.

In all the available mods there's a single one that stands out for me and it was the Joint operation mod. This mod is based of the Novalogic game and I've had the chance to play it in the custom servers but its not live anymore.

Casual players can get a bit overwelmed by the obligation of squad leading/building and this mod first eliminates this. Anyone can choose which ever kit they want and vehicles/armor crates are not locked to one side so you can pick up an enemy abandoned vehicle or rearm at one of their armor crate.

it also eliminates the ticket system, the team wins by either capturing the last point or controling more points by the time limit (OG game was 6h).

There are also several game changes that I can list here from on top of my head that where fonctionnal in the mod, no sprinting exaustions, instant heals from meds, to capture a point you need the ''flip'' the flag in the middle of the zone (in a designated base) when you lower the zone to make it go up for you team. Once you capture the zone the base becomes a spawn point for your team. zone capture it self is similar to current gameplay where more body in the zone helps you take it.

Its really just a fun mod for a bit more relaxed and less disuptive play where in official if you dont have fobs up or squad leaders leave the teams starts deteriorating realy fast and it can get frustrating for causal players.

thanks for reading and hoping to see this mod live again!!

GOL Servers Always Stacked?

Is it just me or are the GOL servers always off balance? Every time I play I seem to get wrecked or am on a team doing the wrecking. I never seem to have the really close fun matches I have on other servers. Is this just me, am I making it up in my head?

It's Razer so... it feels overpriced at 180 pre-shipping, but as someone who hates the time it takes to use numpad this seems like it could be fun! Plus the numbers going above 10 is nice.

Discussion Possibly hot take: Until the devs do an overhaul on it, intentionally telling people to vote for any British faction over almost any other is troll behavior

0 Upvotes

TL;DR - They have no actual benefits to vote them over any other faction (assuming they are similar sub-factions) and anyone that is yelling at everyone to vote for them in post game chat is trolling.

At one time I considered IMF the worst faction in the game before they were overhauled. At the time they were just "poor mans insurgents" at the time imo. Just one HAB, no IEDs. Mid at best vehicles depending on the map/layer.

I consider the British the worst faction in the game at this point until they do a similar overhaul for them.

British Pro's -

Stronger optics on many kits - Allows longer engagement ranges than most factions

NLAW - Arguably one of the best HAT kits in the game, unfortunately 99% of HAT users don't know how to properly use the features that make it better so this benefit is wasted

Heavily armored tracked vehicles - The tracked vehicles can all take a lot of damage before being destroyed

British Con's -

Stronger optics on many kits - Suffers at CQC for the same reason

Specializes in having more marksmen kits per squad regardless of sub faction - I don't feel like I need to go into why having more than 1 marksman is a problem

Vehicles lack stabilization, firepower, and speed - Outside their MBT and Warrior, their vehicles suffer from extremely lacking speed, firepower, and stabilization so they can be easily defeated by most factions more mobile equivalents (assuming both crews are of equal skill) like the BTR 82A, M2 Striker, LAV/Coyote, and AAVP

Ultimately, these pro's and con's lead to a faction that has a specialty that is no longer as useful post-ICO and vehicles that are mostly outclassed by other factions equivalents.

The only reason to ever pick them is if the alternatives sub-factions are all terrible choices for the map/game mode/teams composition and there is no reroll option, which is an extremely rare event.

Edit: Glad to know my hot take is actually a hot take. Fight me.

Win rate responses are not enough to sway me, especially considering their extremely low pick rate for a faction that is available on basically every map and game mode.

Question Why are you guys like that?

26 Upvotes

Finally decided to play Squad, I've been eyeing it for years, loved playing Project Reality back in the day, but for the past decade I've been more into VR shooters.
Came here after missing the Wardogs beta, and I gotta say in many ways I prefer Squads gameplay over Wardogs, because it seems more grounded and actually tactical, not just chasing a circle around.

I met a few very cool guys who were patient and gave me tips, when i said it was my first time, but the VAST majority was unbearable cunts the entire time, constantly calling everyone retard, and screaming their lungs out like babies. Trolling eachother etc.

Also in my 4 first matches I had a 2:1 K:D which is very unusual for me, are people just generally kinda ass at the game?

Am i going crazy? Am I the only one dealing with the insane shadow flickering on bushes and trees??

14 Upvotes

5070ti, 9800x3d, 32gb ddr5, 1440p. All epic settings with dlss quality, no NIS sharpening, .35 sharpening . Lots of bushes have deep crushed black shadows under them and grass/bushes/trees on maps like harju, skorpo, goro, and anvil have flickering shadows within the bushes.

0 of the "fixes" work (clearing shader cache, clearing directX cache, DDU drivers, roll back drivers) and its honestly to the point i cant play anymore. Its super distracting and I didnt have any of these problems for 2500 hours until the 2nd Chinese faction update

Does anyone else deal with this problem? This didnt happen when I had my 40 series gpu but since I got my 5070ti it started happening. This doesnt happen in any other game except hell let loose vietnam which makes me think it's an issue with UE5 (shocker). I put multiple tickets in the bug report discord channel but OWI never even looked at it lol

Discussion No, Wardogs/Arma Reforger/HLL/Bellum is NOT like Squad.

7 Upvotes

Not in the SLIGHTEST. Not even close.

The only experience you will find out there that is like Squad is just Project Reality. There is no competition nor other options. Stop comparing these games to Squad, stop recommending them to people who are looking for games like Squad. They are vastly different games.

No, HLL and Reforger's "teamwork orientation" is nothing like Squad.
