Red Orchestra (2) : Heroes of Stalingrad

[Mahnsikir]

It's looking awesome. I'll update the first post with some more gumph later.

@Tefal
Bioshock did though use a few UE3 features and was much more heavily modified but yeah still 2.5 I guess. hehe. Though the view distances in RO (was it put up to 1km?) was also pretty impressive for a semi-balistic based multiplayer game.

Can't wait to see the new Arad & various mashed together tank maps

In before the "OMFG NOT ANOTHER WW2 GAME!!!!1111" brigade.

Nah, Modern Warfare has taken over WW2 as the common gaming era now, in the mainstream anyway, COD, MOH etc all adopting it.

anyone still play red orchestra or would like to start playing again? im gonna be playing some tonight, ill post what server if theres any interest.

 

[Mahnsikir]

Updated the first post with more info.

Though I highly recommend the RO:HOS facts thread on the official forums. Loads of good information about stuff there but more than I'm willing to spam here.

Haven't played RO for ages but i do play the RO mod "Darkest Hour" i mainly play on the Jollyroger tank sever which is both tanks & infanty.

The mod turns RO into the europeon theatre so you have british & american troops & also allied armour such as stuarts,shermans & cromwells.It's worth downloading as lots of fixes have been done to game engine such as, you can now climb over walls,infantry can now get rides on certain tanks & tanks now brew up when hit in certain area's & when playing tank combat it's no longer like RO's tank ping-pong.

Looks great, only thing I don't like is the 'Last Stand' style bleeding out, didn't like last stand in MW, won't like it in this.

The original mod was awesome, and the fact that it is PC only means no dumbing down for consoles which is always good!!

 

[Edinho]

This, diablo, and star wars. I think 2011 could be one of the best years in a long time to be a pc gamer. Probably since 2005.

 

[BogEyes]

I cannot wait for this game to come out. Its going to be epic. Anyone still play the original, or Darkest Hour?

Yup, most days!

 

[~>Dg<~]

ive reinstalled cod 1 and uo playing rifles while i wait for this to come out

 

[Bergkamp]

Liked the original, but hated the fact nobody ever communicated. Games like this need a broad strategy and decent tactics, so it's unfortunate that so many people played it for 5 minutes in the usual one man army style and then quit accusing the game of being broken, rubbish, or both.

Hmmm looking good, wish they would just blinking well release it, its been years!!

 

[ColdAsIce]

Is there an estimated release date time?

 

[Shatners-Bassoo]

Hope they get rid of an awful lot of the CoD style hud elements or at least have them as server side options. The price we pay for consoles once again.
