Red Storm are a bunch of hacks. There's almost no fucking creativity in RS3 outside of its level design. none. the design behind it fucking sucks. it should have been obvious when they stripped command functions like 'cover' from rogue spear for no fucking reason. when commands are bound to a fucking wheel as opposed to a hotkey like SWAT 3 where speed is more important than ever.

when armor serves literally no fucking use besides impeding noobs. because the TTK is so fucking low that any handicap it would provide is irrelevant. when slows down your character actions considerably to make a slow game even fucking slower.

when every fucking gadget is rendered irrelevant by the heart beat sensor + smoke combo. all this effort stuck into animating, coding, etc. these items and they manage to be more fucking worthless than Hugo SF3. when the planning phase is still separate from the action phase WHEN FUCKING GHOST RECON MERGED THEM INTO ONE QUITE EFFICIENTLY AND MAKING THE UI FUCKING WORSE THAN ROGUE SPEAR. FUCKING HOW? YOU LITERALLY DID IT CORRECTLY IN THE FUCKING PREVIOUS GAME YOU CUNTS.

every fucking attempt to gamify any 'realistic' elements fall fucking flat.

almost no fucking ballistic simulation, wall penetration is reduced mostly to doors and the occasional static surface. cant wallbang dudes with my fucking 50 cal through this fucking plaster wall 4 some reason. any kind of verticality being only ladders as opposed to rappeling, climbing walls manually, vaulting, OR FUCKING ANYTHING. almost no fucking enemy or AI variation outside of scripted triggers on occasion. all these elements you could look at and nothing was implemented despite TWO WHOLE FUCKING EXPANSIONS.


a good example of superfluous shit in this game. AI surrenders on occasion but has no noticeable impact. you can straight up fucking kill them with no penalty. unless there's some element that it plays with past the repeating airport mission, this is fucking useless.
