I believe I know who you're on about but I never felt hate on a game character before so that alone tells me I am for in one heck of a ride.

I'm liking the game, although I feel the sound is off on the PS4. The voices sound so tiny. and so do the guns. Don't have this problem in any other games. Playing with TV speakers

It is because they are 2 different games.
You have to activate it with a VPN though and after that you have to wait ~3 months before you can download and play it (without VPN)
Sound does seem a bit off.....do you have it set to tv in the audio menu?

yeah i just set it to TV and the voices are louder at least, but it still sounds kinda distant, hard to explain.
I haven't messed with it much but got the sense that the center channel was a bit low. Does everything sound distant or just the voices in front?

Thx!
Welp, indeed. Played it on the third Difficulty because thought that was suppose to be "normal" but I kept dying in a couple of shots in the wheelchair. Even on Don't Hurt Me in power armor you die super fast.
This is my biggest gripe too. Guns sound a bit too soft.
for the first game you could just buy the game on the NA store. don't know why it shouldn't work for the second.
For anyone who is a bit further than me (I'm in the U-boat mission after New York, so pretty early)... please tell me BJ cheers the fuck up at some point. His dreary depressing attitude especially while talking to
is just too much. It's just an overwhelming damper on the game compared to the action.

If I put the sound just through my Yamaha speaker base, it sounds incredible. If I just use TV, or if I split the sound between TV and speaker base it doesn't sound nearly as good.

Yeah this is the worst part of the game, especially his monologues. For some reason this game takes itself way too seriously.
But at times it totally doesn't... Between

I mean, at one point he quite literally says "Look... another angel" after seeing a dead body like he's a Little Sister from Bioshock.

about 10 to 15 I think. With replay and missions in a kind in New game plus
You're not alone.
Absolutely loving the game, but
after you rescue the resistance fighters, you're supposed to go to Section F. I have been running around the home base for 15 minutes, where the hell is it? BJ even says that he should go to the hidden entrance in the locker room. There's a fucking locker room? Where?
I think when that cut scene ends your standing right in front of the the entrance, they say its welded shut.
I think he gives you a lazer gun that can melt through the sealed entrance

If you played Wolfeinstein 09, it makes more sense as
Caroline is the only connection and reminder of BJ's former self, and understands him the most from their previous time working together against Deathhead, losing her absolutely will put a huge burden on his mind, and he know god damn well at that time, that he won't be in this world for long.
That might be a different sequence. Either that, or I completely zoned out, I don't remember getting that.
the very end of this video shows how to get into section f

Ok, thanks. I'll find it, I'm not sure why I'm having such a hard time. There's no mission marker or anything. Thanks.

hella bullets that's true
It's a reference to Trump/Russia/Nazi/Republicans/Anyone I Disagree With. Tongue-in-cheek of saying you could play this game in real life instead. And considering the game is about shooting and killing them, you can draw your own conclusions. We have fun here at GAF!

im holding off on the game till I get an X, but can someone tell me if my friends summation of the game is accurate or hes just exaggerating:
"its as long as a cod campaign, nothing is solved, whole game is just a setup for a 3rd one, and over half of it is cutscenes"

That's what I was wondering. Having only played the first in the Machinegames series, BJ's reaction to
Caroline's death
On the subject, I did some quick searching, and couldn't find any (legal) way to play the PC version of Raven's Wolfenstein. It got taken down for sale once Bethesda bought Id right?
I loved most of the cutscenes - they were all so well done - but my favorite one has got to be the one at New Orleans where
. Serious, over the top, upbeat, funny, and sincere.
BJ and Horton goes into an argument on their beliefs over whiskey shots in what I can only describe as a rap battle, with Paris Jack's clarinet playing in the background

Finished the game a few minutes ago. Took me 17 hours and 39 minutes.
Progress stands at 52%. In other words: There is still a lot of stuff to find/to do. But the main story is done.
What more can I say besides: The game is really really awesome. IMHO a must-have if you like shooters. Especially the improved gameplay compared to TNO is really awesome. The only thing I missed: Why aren't we able to shoot the helmets of death enemies. I loved that in TNO. Missing it here. But overall the game really derserved its 89 metascore.
But now lets get into some risky territory. Do not continue reading if you do not want to get spoiled:

But now lets get into some risky territory. Do not continue reading if you do not want to get spoiled:
- The whole beheading scene was really strange. I mean: WTF. Really had to laugh about it after realizing whats going on. But man... really strange. It became even more funny when Set puked into the container where B.J. head was in while everyone was drunk at the party.
- The music during the endscreen is not that good if you ask me. TNO had a much better soundtrack for that.
- I am still not sure about the end. Suddenly it was there. No boss fight. Nothing. But I really liked it how B.J. divided Frau Engels head. Had to think about the scene where Negan killed Glenn in TWD and his eye popped out in that moment.
- I am still annoyed that they want us to play the "Mein Leben" difficulty for Platinum.
- The game itself was really hard at some parts. I started on "do or die". But I turned it down to "Bring 'em on!" after 2 hours. But I did not feel a huge difference between them. Also some parts are really unfair. Luckily they give us the option to manually do the safe at points where we want to respawn when whe die.
- Since I played the german version I had to deal with the reagime instead of nazis. Hitler was called Heiler (lol; german word for healer). They removed Hitlers beard, eventhough they had the beard on pictures that showed him.
- The german version is really well done. Besides the Hitler thing everything is really well done. Even the conversation between the two Ku-Klux-Klan members and one soldier. While the soldier wants to test their german language skills in the non-censored version he asks questions about the glorious history of the regime. The outcome is the same. Also in terms of humor. Really well done.
- Can not wait for more Content + Wolfenstein 3. I am pretty sure we will see it in 2020/2021.

Holy shit.
EDIT: Nvm, I got it.
Is there a way to run past this boss (where the game demands you fight two oversize megatrons)?

Still a lot of stuff to do until you are able to use it.

I'm 8 hours in so far, maybe a little under halfway, and still loving the game. I know people here are talking about how dark the game is, it definitely and appropriately is just that, but there's also loads of really funny jokes too. I suppose a lot of them are more optional (easy to skip by and miss them) so rushing can affect how you see the game's mood, but I feel it reaches a great balance. To me the game's control of tone is one of its most impressive aspects. I've both been near tears and literally laughing out loud, and none of that mixture feels jarring or out of place.

Is there a guide on how that thing works?
