OMG, they finally are adding a historically accurate Unertl scope Springfield. The scope is actually free floating in it’s mount, so when you fire, you have to manually pull back the scope after every time you fire to reset your eye relief. This is the first video game I’ve played where the Unertl is depicted as such.
@ to aid in accuracy. Precision rifles back then aren’t the same as precision rifles today. In a military context, most of the time, a sniper rifle is just a regular bolt action rifle (made on the same production line as the other bolt action rifles) that just so happens to group better than the rest.
@@Mechanized85 I have yet to play a video game that depicts the 1903 with Unertl properly, and Squad 44 is the first one to do it. Watch some shooting video of this setup to see what I mean.
Honestly they just need to add the RisingStorm mechanic of banzai charging with more players increase adrenaline which delays death and adds some damage mitigation, you will still die, a good amount of the group will still die, but at least it makes it a mechanic that at least has a chance of doing something even if its just to face death. The closer you are to the enemy while screaming the more their screen will shake and blur
and they have a chance stealing alot of players cause HLL turned into a Battlefield with nobody talking! it was bad before but after they launched on Console nobody is speaking anymore and so there is no real tactical ww2 shooter anymore
Absolutely wild Japan actually used those anti-tank pitchforks. Dude's literally feet away from an antitank blast, not to mention a very upset tank as well.
Not really….. the blast goes forward IN the tank. Not any different than a sticky bomb and ESPECIALLY not a magnetic mine…. The ONLY difference between those is seconds of detonation. You can’t get more than 20 feet of a magnetic mine before it blows. It’s really not crazy. What’s crazy is running up to a tank which every faction had to do basically.
@@christopherkucia1071 The explosion goes in all directions, it's just the copper penetrator that goes into the tank, the dude would probably still be eating a shrapnel and concussion sandwich
can u make another video about Easy Red 2? there has been a couple of new campaigns and an upcoming campaign for the second sino-japanese war which is very obscure in the WW2 gaming genre
Well it’s probably something they missed in editing but I’ve tested out the heating and barrel change in match already and it’s SICK! I fucking love it.
All looks awesome, but isn´t the fire rate of the T99 quite slower than it really was ? I understand that they were known for being light, realiable and quite scary with a high firing rate.
Nope. It’s just right here. I’ve shot an original while visiting Japan. Granted, ROF differed individual gun to fun by different materials or machining, tolerances and ESPECIALLY the ammo type and how old ammo is.
@@theShermanator thank you! Yes eventually found it. Seems like its the ranging button. Look forward to seeing some pacfic videos from you. Enjoy the playtest this weekend
@@creepyendy I like to play bots until I learn the mechanics of a game. If you start out not knowing many times people kick you off a server and cry noob.
I'm still baffled how these developers constantly update an absolutely dead game. If this game does not match at least HLL or Enlisted player numbers (5k+ daily vs. S44 ~500 daily at peak times), this will just be an over developed underground game, which it already is. This game needs to match the playability and accessibility of HLL, otherwise no one will play this as a daily driver.
I play it every day all day… I fucking LOVE it and I have NOT looked back at ANY WW2 shooter since…. I used to play HLL but one match in this game and I uninstalled. Never will I play HLL again.
But will this update bring players to the game?! The game is essentially dead with at most 6 servers full most of which being French or German speaking as a mandatory! So getting good/fun games force players to join discord teams which in and of themselves have very high requirements (ie must go through “training” or dedicate at least two nights a week of playing to avoid getting kicked from the team) I have almost 700 hours in the game and have been apart of said discord teams, and I feel the game is significantly struggling to bring in new players and keep old players as myself. When there are games such as Hell Let Lose that have hundreds of servers full and even maxed out in player count (closest comparison) So my question to the devs/community what do we do to get above 1500 players online at any given night? I will still be playing squad 44, I just pray for a player increase.
Well you obviously know nothing about the type 99 then…. That’s how it WAS, and ISSUED with a scope on the RIGHT. It actually makes perfect sense as the stock and many parts of the gun are offset. Shows what you know…
I play it every day all day with always at least one full server. Yes, you join FULL servers 10 minutes at most in queue.. go pee and grab some food idiot. The. You’re loaded and you start and can play ALLLL day.
@ me when work from home and no support tickets come through. I make a great effort to be nice and super helpful to new players. Ones that don’t have mics and don’t listen to audio or text directions don’t deserve any sympathy though. If you can play, you at LEAST have a keyboard. Or a controller you can use with an internal keyboard on the PC. I left HLL for squad44 and it was definitely the decision to go by, but I’m noticing that the free weekends are just bringing in non communicative players who don’t know how nor WANT to learn how to play, and then after free weekend they don’t get the game. And then we’re back to regular limited servers (which I have no issue with. Waiting to join in on a completley full server still only takes 15 minutes at most. I start joining, make some food, smoke some pot and I’m in by the time I come back) I will SL AS SOON as no one else is or the others are shit, but I do it so often I appreciate people like Chips_Dips who take it immediately (like I usually do) I am really mad about the canteen change and the ADS zoom randomly stopping right now though. I do really like the stamina/movement change but one canteen is not okay. If we’re now supposed to not have to use canteens unless we die and are healed, then we need at LEAST 3. 3-5 in my opinion. 4 is a great middle ground. ADS zoom I think is a bug the developers are aware of though. It would make sense if you’re lower or low or out of stamina that you can’t hold the ADS zoom but it happens a couple seconds after even with full stamina. They DID fix MG emplacements jumping around when you move left,right, up, down for me though! I never have an issue getting in the ONE full server with less than 60 ping. I don’t care about player count as long as it doesn’t get lower. But the free weekend is totally making the matches one sided and communication like HLL comms lol/
TYPE 97 without the seal of the emperor is a crime and my day is ruined
Many of the Arisaka 38 rifles also had imperial seal engraved

Why was it free in its mount though. That's a first time seeing that. Any practical reasons for it?

Oh my god for what? Springfield with 6 times magnification scope, then Springfield with 6 times magnification scope, really great surprising.

The banzai charges in defense of the final points will be crazy and the lunge mine looks awesome.
@@KommieKaze unless it is scripted, you wont see those pulled off by the normal player base

@@rasgotiriebud bro play squad 44 now, watch the map, players already just yeet themselves across open fields. One could argue players banzai charge
@@redrafashiro it also forced them into cover if they used the ingame cover mechanic
They are after Hell Let Loose, and they are very clear about it.
and they have a chance stealing alot of players cause HLL turned into a Battlefield with nobody talking!

I'm going to be munching crayons with this one
4:25 That makes sense being made out of cheaper parts, meaning the bolt is probably a lot lighter and can help it shit out more rounds
Makes me want to get back into Squad 44.
same here. now im considering redownloading it

Time to install! See u guys on the beach!
Looks awesome!
What other islands are planed ? Guadalcanal ? Tarawa ?
Guadalcanal is the second confirmed map, third one is unknown yet.
@@graustreifbrombeerkralle1078 I've always enjoyed Wake island from BF1942. Hope to see an apparence
looks so sick!
am I the only one who noticed the replacement barrel for the mg42 was red hot then suddenly went to being 'cool'..?
haha yea saw that
Well it’s probably something they missed in editing but I’ve tested out the heating and barrel change in match already and it’s SICK! I fucking love it.
Something about the type 11 machine gun with the hopper just russell's my jammies.
its just such a cool/weird thing, I do love it haha
risingstorm on steroids i like it
Best ww2 tac fps available
This guy is the goat
Thanks man!
Squad 44 is just next level milsim

sorry how do i swap scope to iron sights? Cant see it in the controls anywhere. Know its going to be so obvious so im sorry in advance aha
for me it was
ADS then hold "X" and scrollwheel
@@theShermanator thank you! Yes eventually found it. Seems like its the ranging button. Look forward to seeing some pacfic videos from you. Enjoy the playtest this weekend
would be a great series if they had a bot option
why? servers are pretty full lately

was that a M14 @1.21?
I saw that too but I didnt want to remark on it in the video but now seeing it, it does look like one!
@@theShermanator Its the sleeve of the guy. Not a mag.
Its the sleeve of the Marine or the bandoleer of the M1 Garand @@theShermanator
yeah its a sleeve. thank gawd. thought we had a HLL moment there hahah.
@@rayzy4715thankfully no taking of German OPs in this video.
Just checked the average player count for this game. Even Rising Storm 2 got more players than this game is it worth getting??
I play it every day all day… I fucking LOVE it and I have NOT looked back at ANY WW2 shooter since…. I used to play HLL but one match in this game and I uninstalled. Never will I play HLL again.
Its harder than HLL but also more rewarding. Try it out its free weekend.
Meh I’ll check it out , but HLL beats the pants off this one
@@ozark6454 Yeah but HLL don't have the balls to do Pacific war
I hope this updates revived the game I like it but it was dead so I haven't played in years
I play it every day all day…. all you need to do is wait 1-10 minutes in queue… join, go per or something and your in. 50 ping server(s)
I wouldn’t say it’s dead. There’s just a few servers everyone plays in. Gotta have the patience to wait in the queues

3,000 players online right now
that machinegun scope, makes no sense to be on the right size
its like that irl
You can't mount it anywhere else.

Shows what you know…
Excellent! New content for the 0 players to play!
A bit late for that jab now, you should’ve made it when the game was festering with no studios to update it!
womp womp atleast this game gets regular content
