Who cares about ranking, the mod rocks!

Man I love my RPG's. Looks good, sounds good, hurts plenty.

Now I just need to find a way on how to make the me vs. tank k/d ratio turn to 10:1 ... from er 1:10 that it's now.

Yes, this mod has potentional, but I like the way OPK did rockets, they destroyed choppers in one shot, and tanks much more quickly.

just one question...seeing as I dont do mods with zip files very often where do I unzip this flippin huge file I just dl'd?

Unzip to your desktop. There'll be 2 files - a *.exe and a mappack.
Just run the .exe and it'll do all the work. After it's done, you can ditch those two big files or burn CD's of them.

I still don't get the Arty though. Is it stationary cannons like here or is it the rolling 2-man Howitzers, or both? Only squadmates can acquire targets for the Howitzers??? Can anybody get targets for commander, or just SL?

Artillery is just like it was in BF1942. There is a tank like vehicle (usually at the main base) that can fire over really long distances. Any assault or sniper (there may be others too) can use the binoculars to spot for the artillery and then they have to use the mobile phone type thing within 10 seconds to call for it. The guy in the artillery can then see where the artillery has been requested and start to fire on the target. A camera follows the artillery shells so that you can adjust your aim to hit the target.

Finally, arty requires some kind of skill and cooperative teamwork again.

It seems like there is some issue with lag after a few maps are played. Has anyone else seen this?

well now that I played this I can see what all the fuss is about...now for the new OPK...anyways longer sprint, awesome maps (especially fallen), faster ground vehicles and more of them, whats not to love?? I also liked the fact that the weapon models are so superior to those in vanilla. the VEPR or whatever the Ukraine assault kit main gun is has the most supreme weapon model I have seen for a long time

. havent played as germany yet but I am starting to believe that they are slightly overpowered with the tiger and thier main tank moving faster

I have only had a chance to play 2 or 3 rounds, but every time Germany got rocked by Ukraine. I like this mod, especially the RPGs
