Ah yes let’s play the new improved orbital

Ah yes , still no server browsers to actually choose orbital should you wish…..

 

Whilst we here - make the rocket from orbital actually kill anyone near it when the entire thing explodes. 

overall sound still needs improving… compare this to BFV  , can hear tanks around you for one

@SillyCyb There are enough Orbital 24/7 servers with vanilla settings in portal browser, people just don't use it.

I found a good Orbital 24/7 server with vanilla settings with low ping on Thursday, come Friday it had gone. Frown

 

I have struggled to find a similar server with vanilla settings / low ping, there are loads of heavily modified servers though which I am not interested in.

@X-Sunslayer-X I think Portal has left a bad taste in everyone's mouth for the way it has been handled the past year where people have given up on it. I know I have. All I see in portal is hardcore, mil Sims and boost servers. Which don't appeal to me at all. Plus they all have high ping.

@NazT55 you can filter for ping and now that communities can actually keep servers up there are plenty of servers to choose from give it another shot

You can play Orbital… you just have to sit through a back and forth of Renewal and Stranded a dozen times.

I agree, it's a bit of a lottery and time consuming. Frown

@SillyCyb  Portal's server browser is terrible. It still auto scrolls.

 

Also, you could stand in the exhaust of the Rocket taking off and take no damage. It really is just a spectacle.

They really should've worked more events such as the rocket into more of the maps and given it the attention it deserves i.e The rocket when taking off should make nearby soldiers temporarily deaf, because that's just how loud a rocket taking off is, among dying when it explodes, lets say they slowly die when it explodes so that it's not so abrupt and those forsaken to be near the explosion can at least enjoy the view.
