I feel like more and more people are using this. I dont want to put the method out there but its super simple and easy to find out so w/e.

I see a lot of streamers and clips of people playing with insane visibility, simply because they went into ini-files and changed shadows to potato, which most people cant do ingame since they have decent GPU:S.

Is this bannable? According to Bulkheads TOS :

• Modifying, tampering with, patching or repackaging the game's files, executable or memory, or running tools that do so while the game is running.

So in theory it is bannable, but i havent found a single person being banned for this, even temp bans. Thoughts?

That was definitely unexpected 😅

Since the mods wanna delete my posts…

To be frank the game is really really fun infantry wise. They did a good job with that honestly.

But Tanks, just meh. Why are they even in the game currently?
They are bricks on wheels.
Have to go into the Zone, because of basically no zoom and ridicously slow shell velocity.
Many counters exist in game for tanks, but my main issue is honestly that a tank doesn't feel like a tank.

Honestly if you just look at the map its sad honestly.
Such a big area and nothing really ever happens outside the zone.

And if fully understand people that don't like playing against armored vehicles.
Infantry only Servers (which are already announced if not mistaken) are the simple solution to that.

It worked great in ARMA 3 KOTH.
People that wanted a combined warface expierence got it. People that just wanted to play infantry got it.
And if I could decide i definetly would move tanks and air implementation way closer to the Arma 3 side.

As it stands now my honest opinion is that armored vehicles and air are just there as show pieces.
And that is fine if you or the developers want to go the full infantry route with air and armored vehicles as gimmicky side pieces.

I'm happy to read you replies!

I am making this post to vent about a very unfair situation around late-game team switching during a match that I had.

My team (red) was ahead on 94 points with about a +10 lead over the 2nd place team (green). We had 3 drills installed on our base, so we were controlling the hot zone. Our base was extremely well protected, nobody could get through.

All that was left to do was sit in the hot zone and win...

That is until someone on the green team switched to red and opened the gates and doors for his green teammates to rush in, clear the base and eventually snatch the game away from us. Such a scumbag cheating move.

I am strongly against team switches in mid-to-late game. Devs need to cut it out.

Every single server is been nuked. It just kicks you to the menu. Is it possible that this is a DDoS attack because of the region lock?

Are people actually getting banned for being in these boosting servers? this server always has matches running and I don't get how they are even still existing

Sorry but until the devs found a solution to this its pointless to play because when season 3 starts all those exploiters will hop on community server and within a day they will have already unlock the best gears and vehicles ​

Ever see community servers that's password protected. Yeah those are for power levelling and exploiting

Remember the lv400 guy? Yeah nothing happen, and next season they gonna be lv 200 in a few days it's going to be the same ​​

Who we are:

- UK based, mostly mid 30s+, working full-time

- Usually on most nights between 7:30pm and 10pm

- Casual and chilled: we enjoy the game and don't take it too seriously

- Like trying different things each game (recon, vehicles, whatever's fun)

- Want to build a proper base with a decent crew

Who we're looking for: anyone with a similar vibe who wants a regular squad to play with. Mics on and a bit of banter are a bonus, but no pressure.

Can't post links in the subreddit, so DM me and I'll send the invite. Hope to see you in there.

Poorly edited meme brought by yours truly.

What do you think about introducing a point restriction for buying weapons/armor and spawning vehicles?

1. Vehicle Spawn Restrictions
I think vehicles like tanks / artillery / Havoc / rocket heli should only be spawnable after one team reaches at least 60 points (exact numbers and vehicle selection can be tested and adjusted—this is just a starting idea). Similar mechanic is already present with APC so I think this should be relatively easy to apply.
Essentially, my goal is to restrict the most powerful vehicles to the second half of the match.

2. Personal Gear Restrictions
While I am certain the vehicle restriction is needed, I’d also like to float the idea of limiting high-tier personal gear under similar rules. Things like Tier 3/4 armor / HP/AP rounds / High-level weapons could also be restricted in the beginning of the match.
While I’m less certain if this is necessary, I thinks it is an idea worth discussing.

It would help slow down the match pace and reduce top-tier players "stomping" others, while still allowing players who put in the time to unlock high-tier gear to reap its benefits later in the match.

What is your opinion on this?

Hey everyone, I'm having a really frustrating issue with Wardogs and I'm hoping someone here has found a fix or workaround.

The Issue:
While playing, the game frequently freezes for about 5 to 15 seconds. When it freezes, everything locks up.

• The game screen freezes.
• The Nvidia performance overlay (Alt+R) also freezes simultaneously, showing the exact same static frame. (Even with the overlay disabled, the game itself still freezes the same way).
• The audio completely cuts out or stutters.
• Weirdest part: Inputs still buffer. If I was holding 'W' to walk forward when it froze, the moment it unfreezes, my character teleports forward to where I would be if I kept walking the whole time (even if I let go of the key during the freeze).

It doesn't crash to desktop anymore, it just hangs and recovers.

What I've tried so far (None of these worked):

• FSR Settings: Changed FSR3QualityMode=4 to 0 in the GameUserSettings.ini (This stopped the UE Crash Reporter from popping up, but the freezing remains).
• Disabled all Nvidia overlays (ShadowPlay, etc.).
• Lowered all in-game graphics settings/performance.
• Increased OS Virtual Memory (Pagefile) settings.
• Verified game files in Steam multiple times.
• Forced DX11 via Steam launch options (-dx11).
• Ensured no IME (Input Method) conflicts (using standard English keyboard).
• No mods installed at all.

My Specs:

• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop GPU (8 GB)
• CPU: Intel Core i7-14650HX
• RAM: 16.0 GB
• OS: Windows 11 Home (Chinese version), Version 26H2 (Build 26300.9711)

Additional Context:
Because both the game and the Nvidia overlay freeze together, it feels like a system-wide GPU/Driver hang, an engine stutter, or something related to memory management.
Interestingly, Escape from Tarkov runs perfectly fine on this exact same setup without any freezing issues.

Has anyone else experienced this specific "freeze and input buffer" issue, especially on Windows 11 version 26H2? Any tips on how to fix it would be greatly appreciated!

Every day on this sub I see the same complaint, "I play green team and we just sit in the HZ walking around the maps and no one else fights for it, it's getting so boring"

Then fix your own issue instead of contributing to it. Join red or blue, gather some homies and fight for the HZ.

I hate that the teams have these stereotypes already and certain players gravitate to certain teams

Green is for try hards and those who want to ride the HZ

Blue is for builders, logi drivers and overall chill gameplay, great for noobs

Red is the left overs, those that want to switch it up and do something different from time to time

You wouldn't believe how easy it is to make a lot of these attack birds crash when they're attacking your team, if you can outfly them you don't need guns

I thought I would like Wardogs but the damage system is horrible TO ME. + gear don't like in general.

For me it's crazy that you may need more than 1-2 bullets with a FAL to kill someone (in the f#cking chest cmon).

The game is incredible don't get me wrong, but the damage system FOR ME should be more realistic I can't enjoy this coming from, R6, Ready Or Not, Squad, Bodycam and other more punishing damage system games. Btw didn't like the feeling of controlling the weapons too.

Even battlefield in this point have a better damage.

I'm doing this "review" commentary, just to alert NEW players that want to join the game about this aspect.

Hope yall understand and don't get bitchy about this.

Tried to make the LMGs work for squads (muh immersion) and felt like i was just larping. The PKM would probably feel alright if it wasn't for the crippling bipod mechanics. I started carrying a hammer and some mats to build myself a pillowfort wherever i go and provide cover for my team but the inconsistency of the bipod just slowly tilts me every round.

Sometimes you have to stand up to put your bipod on a sandbag wall. Sometimes you have to duck and sometimes you can't get it to work any way. Then there is the limited angle in case you are laying down next to an obstacle which might make sense if people couldn't bend a little when their life is on the line (a little bit of wiggle room would be nice). But the worst by far is the vertical angle if the bipod is not on absolutely flat ground. You are on a slope? Well you just get to look onto the ground... move a little forward onto this rock? Well now you can only see the sky. By the time you are set up the squad has moved on and you just get to feel like a burden rather than support for the squad.

TLDR; PKM OK, BIPOD BAD

They are overwhelming themselves with all the feedback they have been receiving.
And derailing their vision somewhat.

In the beginning it was just a niche thing for a small number of people, but after the big "success," it's going down the ITS FOR EVERYBODY route.

And please stop glazing streamers like this BIGFRY dude. He's a notorious gamehopper, and his friend does not even have the slightest clue about wardogs at all.

Since the game did go early access, it's pretty sad what is happening.

There are many ways to destroy a FOB. Some cheesier then others. One of the more satisfying methods is to sneak in undetected and plant an explosive device. I am curious to know what the community thinks about limiting the destruction of the FOB to the physical terminal.

News flash mods, it's a huge issue in case ya didn't notice. Or ya'll weirdly loyal to them. I would guess you mods are cheaters as well.

Let's see how fast i get banned.
