DYNAMIC Hostage Rescue in Door Kickers 2

[@dsgsecondspice1998]

Hey Karma, the go-loud/ go-silent quick key that you were asking for is Shift+ F. Ive notice that when breaching a room you have the guy pying the entire time, one thing I'd recommend is to have them py when then enter but when they reach their Point of Domination (PoD), you right click the direction you want them to face. This will eliminate the character facing backwards when breaching the next room. The thermal torch is technically quieter than the slap charge but can be seen at range during night maps. As for muting the voices, the "silent go codes" mod has seemed to mute all character dialogue for me so that might be worth looking into. I hope that helps, keep up the good work. I'll be watching.

A clean run, I like that you're approching the problem realistically and you're disgarding limitation of the game. Accounting for vehicle is nice and your explanation are always clear.

“there’s a locked back door” damn! these terrorists thought of everything!

[@BeholdDaPilgrim]

A couple of Workshop maps I enjoyed for anyone interested: Three-Headed Serpent by Plizquadrat - Already similar to going in blind mods in Vanilla with lights turning on when entering areas of the map, you take 3 insurgent leaders into custody via a large underground base. NP_TotalCQB #11 [Night mission] by Ninja_Prime - Smallish yet difficult eliminate terrorists map with civilians present. Operation Kayla Mueller by Gold - Night Map set in desert with 2 small and 1 large compound to take control of with an underground cave at the end. Rough around the edges but pretty fun. (Note: it gives you a "medic" as a 12th squad mate, I'm guessing as part of some mod but acts as a standard rifleman in practice. Siege by Plizquadrat - Inspired by Black Hawk Down in gameplay. Rescue and escort VIP to exit in a large slums district with zero rooms to take cover outsude of breaking into a locked tiny shack, with a large helicopter crash in the center of the map, which is one of 2 spawn points for the VIP. Out of all of these, this is the only one I have beaten. ARC-23 Cold Rescue by DrSqua - Winter Map hostage rescue breaching a house with lots of obstacles to work around and feels like a very lived in house irl. 101 E Linfield St by Sauer - Very small map, not great for a long video on but a fun nevertheless. Into The Jungle by Cyan Hood - Night Hostage Rescue set in Jungle; haven't really played it but seems fun and challenging.

I would really enjoy a from-the-ground up CQB 101 class from you. DK2 does have a lot of potential as a training aid for visualization.

Blind runs are nice for general locations or foreign territory missions, but in an ambassador home, special forces would have access to the building blueprints.

That FOW mod is probably thee best thing I've ever seen for this game. You were right, no FOW makes knowing what's in each room too easy.

Your channel made me buy this game on black Friday deal... Best choice I've made all week

[@averyarabosa9413]

One of my fav series to watch from you. The commentary/breakdowns are awesome!

[@soxfansince97]

These recent doorkickers videos got me into the game, I would love a video where you break down some of these tactical ideas so I can start implementing them myself!

[@dsgsecondspice1998]

Check out Controlled Pairs Gaming's series. A couple heres old but pretty good for a cqb guide nonetheless.

[@joesauter3918]

really enjoying the dk2 vids, hope you keep playing so you get a better feel for the mechanics and muscle memory of the game and can focus on planning and tactics

[@berrymcaulkiner9729]

So glad I found your channel, bought this game because of you and am enjoying every second of it

[@virtualmartini]

40:37 it's funny you sent him around the long way here instead of through the door that's completely covered from both sides

[@vermilion86]

Exactly my thoughts, I have no knowledge as Karma does, but that seemed like a waste of time.

[@Sabamonster]

In a real world scenario there's really only one reason to do this. If you are still going quiet and the ability to communicate is limited, you wouldn't want to walk your hostage through the door without being able to confirm that it is you and your HVT coming through. Especially in low-light conditions, one wrong ID and you end up getting yourself and the hostage shot. That said, they had already gone loud, would have most certainly have been in communication, and was definitely a viable option. Having said that, the guys working the hallway were still somewhat exposed and having to 'work' the hallway, so it may just been easier to minimize bodies not actively scanning for targets in a minimized space.

[@projectgg6730]

Ik you brought this up last video but I don't think the SAW is used anymore. At least not in this type of setting. Maybe as mounted weapons on trucks and such. While i was in the USMC and learning how to use the 240b, we were constantly told the SAW is being phased out by the 240. That was like 4 years ago now so. They also were getting rid of humvees and completely dissolved the tank units in the usmc.

[@Bttl71958]

The developers and modders did good with this game, cant wait for the next update.

[@septicaema5598]

Sometimes I question whether or not karma has eyes, because sometimes he sees things I can't and sometimes he can't see shit.

[@mike14991498]

55:15 The doors always open outwards, in this case it was the insurgent opening it before you broke in.

[@The-Caged-King]

I just found this channel yesterday from the first door kickers video. And if the door kickers vids keep coming, I’ll keep watching every damn one 😂

[@ThunderRod]

I don't think right-ward building was a building at all. You see that grid pattern in the building? I'm pretty sure it indicates the map border.

[@thepeacockk]

Personally I prefer it when you dont mod more units into the maps. I get its realistic and its what you go for on this channel but for balance reasons i find it more interesting. Your units in door kickers are already far better skilled and have faster reaction times than the enemies, you dont also need a 2:1 unit advantage

[@ajpk5529]

Do you know actually how can I increase the number of units like Karmakut did? Is it a mod or game file setting? I can't find anything to find out.

[@thepeacockk]

@@ajpk5529 he described it loosely in his previous video. If I recall correctly he said it was a config file to reduce the cost of units. I think he even credited the person who told him. I recommend re-watching that vid

A tip to get the most out of your bangs and slaps, have each man have a bag of 3 slaps, and 4 bangs, and of you need smokes swap some out, using a bag of 3 slaps give you much more bang for your buck for what you are given

You know if they have detected you because a soundclip saying "They're here" will play.

[@hahahahahahaha1983]

the best thing to do when entering dynamic is have your op check different directions at certain points of entry. For example if you want to strong wall right, you can have your op clear right, then look deep.

[@PluckyUnderdog]

[@robsavelino]

Just discovered your channel and it's amazing. Really nice video and I love how well you explain everything! You make it look waaaaay too easy lol

[@dloco97]

32:57 The door in the hallway could have been used to move the hostage to containment faster and get your fourth gun in the stack since they are covered and you were working the hallway. Why did you have him run back through the entry route? Just curious

[@EPICLYFATALERROR]

I would say going through an extra door technically could lead to finding a trap. Also realistically I think it's a lot easier for the guy on the ground to not even realize those doors are exterior, but that wasn't really in play from what I could tell in his explanations.

[@paraisoreconquistado]

I could start listing off the dozens of cool maps that put an emphasis on realism and allow you to place an appropriate amount of troopers that also involve indoor-outdoor dynamics, but instead I'll just tell you some noticeable ones and tell you how to easily find them yourself. Task Force Raid by Vudu1 - Might be the most realistic night raid map I've seen, you get a toon of assaulters from two different angles paired with sniper support, there's also enemy reinforcements that can show up so it incentivizes you to mantain good security externally with long-range capable weaponry while your CQB assaulters clear the buildings to capture multiple HVIs. Coastal Fortress Raid by Johau - Giant fortress map with a lot of interesting geometry that pretty much forces you to split your force if you want to cover everything; there's a night version and a daytime version; it's not that realistic because if your objective is just to kill everyone in a compound and there's no civilians why wouldn't you just bomb it? But it's still a fun map. Da Wialo Kallai Night by Johau - Pretty much a middle-eastern town block surrounded by rivers, since it has a lot of buildings you end up having to prioritize and bypass a lot, which makes security very important. Good if the other two are too easy (I find most maps to be rly easy if you just take your time and use a lot of frags, you can't really do that with this one) DD05 Down the Rabbit Hole by Autolykos - Insurgency tunnel system CQB hell. You're gonna die. SCP Overlord V1 by think i stole ur dog, sry - SCP overlord but there's actual enemies. Lots of bomb vests which I don't think work well in a tight quarters map but wtv. Operation Frostbte by Proverbial King - Part of a bigger campaign, deals with an initial outdoor forest leading into an island mansion, snow theme is really cool. To find more DK2 maps that fit these parameters, go to the steam workshop page for DK2 and click "Missions" under Content Type, then you get access to mission tags, I like to activate 9+ troops and X-Large. Also if you haven't checked it out yet, the MARSOC mod is my favorite unit mod, but there's a ton of others that add different units that make sense in different missions; there's also a ton of gameplay mods and overhaul mods, most noticeably Tier One Overhaul and IOV.

[@parkernelson3308]

"Let's see what we can see a little bit more...this is one of the rare times i'm using the 'go silent' call" *immediate irony*

[@HansHammertime]

Sometimes I’m genuinely not sure whether he’s trying to be tongue-in-cheek when he says “in ready or not” or whether he actually means it. especially cause he does say “irl” later on

[@pvtipotato2782]

Shift + F my dude. Switches fire at will

[@user-ow1bc4sx2r]

Building on the right is a map border, I’m pretty sure. The interior is colored with grid lines like the rest of the stuff outside the bounds of the map

[@TheAMGReviewers]

never seen this game but man, this is great to watch

[@Madadader]

This makes me want this game so much.

[@Klotrik]

I like these vids you're putting out. Been watching a bunch of them. Great game. And cool to be able to pick up on some of the CQB lingo. Question: What does the term "collapse" mean in this context? In your vids you seem to use it as push forward, fall back, group together and/or spread out, or other. I'm not criticizing you - I just want to learn how it is used. All the best to you!

[@BaconNDCheese]

I feel like in a real life scenario, if a team didn't have ISR or any info on the target, they wouldn't be split like you did.

[@cecilracing53]

No they wouldn’t have they wouldn’t have done almost anything he did in this. Soon as the first shot was fired with hostages on the premises this would have been as very fast op. Not much waiting as he did would have been 3-4 mins at most before the got out of the building and or cleared the whole building. 8 men would make easy work of this.

[@DipwadDeluxe]

Honey wake up, Karmakut posted another Doorkickers video!

[@BiggityBoggity8095]

I really love your nomenclature and language. I’d appreciate a video lesson on what these terms mean and when the tactics best apply. That way I can write that stuff down and incorporate it into my own gameplay.

[@rinmizuhiki]

SCP Operation Everest is a great workshop mission. Starts you outside and down a path infront of a mountain side base. You need to work your way up to the start of the building which is very dangerous, and inside is even more dangerous. Lots of corners and long hallways. Would be great to see you run it.

[@isaiahmiller9142]

Plating is using your body armor plates to protect your buddy. Idea is you get shot in the armor plate and can engage the shooter, rather than your buddy getting shot in the side.
