The Most IMMERSIVE WW2 Milsim is Making a HUGE Comeback

Squad 44 has come a long way and the most recent updates to the game have fixed a lot of the big problems: optimization, server crashes, client crashes, game modes... Whatever the devs have done over the past 6 months is working and the game is in a FANTASTIC spot right now.

[@lastword8783]

I think a way to get people into Squad 44 is making Squad 44 and Squad part of the same UI and server browser. If that cant be achieved for whatever reason, an alternative is creating an OWI launcher that makes you select Squad or Squad 44 (and other OWI games). This will get it into people's heads that these two games are both Squad which will make them more open to trying it out.

[@Swoiny]

regular server browsers barely work as they are

@@walker50aaron lol the devs have touched the graphics, lighting, game modes, weapons, camera, and vehicles. You can't say it's still spaghetti code from the old devs after 8 months when they release a broken update after 'fixing' all of those aspects. I'm tired of shills saying they're doing a good job when before their recent update they added 100 average players and 100 more peak players than 7 months of no devs. They blow and the game sucks, OWI are not good devs just look at Squad. MA are part time front men and hyped up the pacific that's the only reason this update has traction and many are disappointed they hinted at it and will have to wait 6+ months more. There was 1 server NA at nights, the game for years had 2 minimum even without devs.

Hell let loose does it all a bit better with less complicated things imo. Squad 44 will be fun after some more patches. It is definitely more historically accurate and hardcore.

Depending on the map and objective you may have to blow up bunkers, barricades, weapon stockpiles, 88 guns and more before it unlocks physical capture points

Post Scriptum has had a special place in my heart for many years. It has certainly been one of the most immersive and theatric shooters I have ever played. If you manage to get a good team, working together with good communication, I believe the experience is unmatched. It's a shame it was managed so poorly, and has never received the recognition it truly deserves.

Id like to emphasize that its really IMPORTANT to use comms, even if you dont know what to say or how to play the game you can still should out enemies or say what killed you and from where. Its also important to do your job as a medic, stick close to your squad and revive as many allies as possible while trying to not die yourself, dont go guns blazing or off on your own, pls just pick a different class if you dont want to be reviving and healing other players, and as a medic most of the time you dont wanna even be engaging the enemy or poking your head up out of cover, just stay behind your squad and behind cover
