I started playing Project Reality in it's early stages when I was around 12/13 years old. I'm now 33 and still occasionally go back to it. Battlefield 2 was the single greatest MP game ever made, the modding community was incredible. I'm not even joking. It was peak multiplayer fps. We had so many total conversion mods it's insane. The devs behind Squad seem to have forgotten their roots.
Is there anyone still actually playing it? I remember trying PR 1-2 years ago. It was just... 1 populated server. And it wasn't even full. It was also a mess. Everyone running around doing whatever they wanted. Some kid in a tank bragging about his kills at the end of a match.
@@Blitzkrieg1605 Yeah there's still people playing. Squad devs pissed a lot of people off with the infantry update and I think a lot of players went back to PR. There's a lot of active servers.
That's what I've been saying and it's mostly known by now that BF2 is the PEAK. From the mods, communities and everything, I still come back to it 15 years later, every month or so.
@@Blitzkrieg1605there used to be a brazilian server that was really good, except another server which came from squad and other games opened their own and started DDOS'ing the old server, think was called DIVSUL, RIP, i think they opened another one called Reality brasil, hope its going well
>Battlefield 2 was the single greatest MP game ever made I tried REALLY hard to love BF2, joined a clan with their own voice chat. Played all the time. It was just too slow with too many little issues
I remember when I was 15, my brother asked me "do you like realism" and I was like "yeah I like good graphics" and he was like "no, actual realism" and then he showed me PR. I was blown away. He first made me read the huge manual that kept me occupied for an entire afternoon, and when I finally joined a match that afternoon, I was shaking, but I had so much fun.. almost 10 years later now, I really have to play this again.
@@PnwPryo lol if your taste rather lies in arcade kinda games like Battlefield of Call of Duty, then yeah, I can see you why you might find it boring. This game to me and many others is everything except boring
Krivaja Valley is awesome. I think, if PR devs focused more on Cold War era battles(even fictional), factions, equipment and so on, - it would breathe a new life into PR. Not so many massive multiplayer shooters with that atmosphere, you know? WW2, Modern Warfare, but not from that time, when AK-74 just came out from the factories. So, I think, it would be interesting for people. Especially, when you consider that ArmA Reforger gained popularity, and things like Afterconflict are nowhere near completion.
Sometimes I dont end up watch the whole video, but every time I hear "Keep funky, keeping it fresh, keeping it 94.9FM" I instantly hit that like button.
I dont think that works that way. Performance is based on how many polygons need to be rendered by the computer. More trees...more polygons. Grouping it all together will make it 1 entity, but not less poly. Grouping *may* decrease loading times, but not gain FPS.
The PTRS-41 is a fucking wild gun. Weights 46 lb (21kg), is over 6 feet long (~210cm) and has a 48 inch barrel (~121cm). It fires a 14.5mm projectile from a 5 round internal magazine at 1,013 m/s and can penetrate 40mm of armor plate (RHA) at 100m, which 10mm more than the side of a Panzer IV without side skirts, and can penetrate the front, side and rear of almost every version of the Panzer III (except J through N models).
I just wanna tell you some secret tip if nobody said it before. You can tell the Soviets and Germans apart the best if you look at the helmet. The more light green one which looks like a turtle is Soviet and the more cooking pot looking one is German, if that makes sense.
I LOVE that they are really leaning into WWII... I'm looking to play for the first time in ages! It's awesome that you keep it real and always promote this awesome game! in a way, the milsim genre's (well.... as we know it) origins!
The moment I saw the update available, I thought back to one of your previous videos and thought "hey, the update we've been waiting for is out now, back to ol' PR!"
Best game ever. I love Squad and remember my excitement when the PR team announced it, but nothing resources this classic experience and the amazing community that makes it possible
LOOOLL that was me aiming at you in debrecen 9:28 when i went up the stairs, it was my first time playing on that map, and i was so confused on if you were an enemy or not so i went back to check to see if the friendly uniform looked like yours and came back to kill you ! @AN4RCHY is my ingame name
Hey Slorgs, that cool building in Stalingrad? Look up the stalingrad Grain Elevator. Not only is it real, the stories of the defenders holding out there are nuts.
The longer time goes on, the less graphical difference I see between PR and Squad. I remember being blown away by Squad, and now sometimes I need to read and re-read what I'm watching.
I had recently installed the game last week, it's a fantastic game, and I had lots of fun learning the game mechanics but my only problem is that my PING is very high because I live in the Philippines where it averages from 300-500ms which is unplayable and there are only a few available servers on Multiplayer and one o CO-OP.
@@JayneMorre bad luck :( I have seen people from SEA play on NA servers with like 2-300 ping though. Are you sure there's nothing wrong with your internet?
@@TheCrusha45 I guess it's got to do with our internet, but I actually managed to play an english server for the past two days with 200-300 ping yesterday, i think it's all about the timing:) Thanks for the replies tho!
I used to be a huge fan of Squad but stopped playing when they messed with infantry combat probably a few years ago now. Might have to try out Project Reality to get my fix that Squad used to provide.
Geballte Ladung (or as you said it "jéballé La'dhung"- Sorry it sounded like vietnamese XD) means packed/stuffed charge/load. So basicly a big boom boom.
The Gelballte Ladung IRL was a bunch of stick grenades taped together and meant to be a makeshift anti-tank grenade. I'm not sure why PR decided to make it a WW2 "C4".
you can use it against tanks... there are 2 types of geballte ladung ingame, this box is the 3kg version, the other is multiple normal grenades strapped togheter. both can be used against tanks.
The title led me to expect a video on its features or persuasive essay on why to try it agian, but it was just straight gameplay and banter, not bad at all just not what I was hoping for oh well
Holy cow, WW2 and Vietnam all in the same PR?? not separate mods?? What the hell did i miss all these years. I entirely dismissed PR after Squad was first released
Btw slorg I really liked the bit of your videos where you showed a comment from your previous video and made a joke about it, but I guess it only works if you do your radio DJ bit so might not be practical
I want to play but there's no one on North America. I've been itching for the Eastern Front in Project Reality. I love RO2, COD1, COD2, MoH, RnL, etc etc so this is amazing to me. Hopefully North America servers will populate
i wanna try this but i cannot find somewhere to buy the base game, is this like a stalker situation where you just download it somewhere for free or what? a tutorial on how to get this would be cool.

They probably got even better at grouping multiple trees into the same object to make the performance better, allowing them to place denser forests 😊
I dont think that works that way. Performance is based on how many polygons need to be rendered by the computer. More trees...more polygons.
Grouping it all together will make it 1 entity, but not less poly. Grouping *may* decrease loading times, but not gain FPS.
It can reduce draw calls therefore it will be able to also affect performance. @@dduleyt
@@dduleyt I seem to remember there being a limit on the number of entities you could have in the engine on any given map. I might be wrong though

nice a pr vid we missed you slorgs

just sayin, the factions that get the base SVD as a marksman also get the same scope on an AK-74 in the spotter kit + a rope and binos
