Default RO - buy it now!

Buy RO now! They are doing a special - only $5 to buy the game plus the free mods - due to the recent release of the Darkest Hour (normandy) mod!

I sure hope you folks are taking advantage of this special deal (ends on June 15th I believe) as its a basically 2-games-for-the-price-of-$5. You really can't beat that, even if you are a little skeptical of the game. There are already 4 other Rogues who play, so come join us!

If you do buy the game, share your STEAM name with us too!

Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 - Red Orchestra
(Trailer: YouTube - Red Orchestra - Trailer)

Darkest Hour: Europe '44-'45 - Darkest Hour (Free Mod with RO)
(Trailer: YouTube - Darkest Hour Beta 3.0 Official Trailer)

Its a must-have for any WW2 FPS Fanatic! It might take a bit to get used to, as it is more realistic then your regular FPS games, but getting on voice-chat with team mates makes the game amazing! (especially when crewing a tank together).

Default Re: RO - buy it now!

Yes, the game is strictly multiplayer - no monthly fee or anything. In this case, you'd only be spending $5 total on the game plus the mods.

There is singleplayer, but the Bots/AI really sucks. The game was part of a contest to design a new game using the Unreal Engine. The Developers won and thus RO got born. They are even working on a 2nd RO that will be improved!

Not as many servers as games like COD but most of the ones that are active have about 40 of 50 players in the game. Some battles are truly epic and playing with friends is great! It really demonstrates the need for team work to accomplish the objective (and to resupply AT/MG teams).

I took your advice, Muss, and "spectated" a little late last night (after LA whipped up on Superman).

Looks interesting. I installed the Darkest Hour as well. Havent looked into it yet. I have been playing SP Left$ Dead as of late.

My username? pyou99

I think so. Steam is digital so it would be world wide.
What am I saying, I know it is. It is dirt cheap on steam right now.

The special deal might be over (not sure). It normally costs $15...so thats like 10-Euros.

Well, I don't know, but its much cheaper for Europeans then for us Americans! Damn economy!

Anyways, Saturday Afternoon or anytime Sunday (East Coast Time) would be great time to get the 'clan' together to play the game!

I still play, mostly Darkest Hour (the free mod you can get with Red Orchestra). I am anxiously awaiting the release of Red Orchestra 2 (which has a SP campaign that allows you to play as the Germans, apparently) but have no idea when it will be released.

Yes - very, from the previews of it that I have seen. You should be able to google Red Orchestra II and find some images.

EDIT: Here is what I found 30 seconds after making this post: http://www.hookedgamers.com/pc/red_o...reenshots.html

Yeah I bought the game on Steam and am installing it as I speak. I'm new to pc games so I'll make sure to get some practice before I start online. Anyways, RO 2 looks awesome but I didn't have the patience to wait...so i bought RO.

Well I've been addictively playing RO and its mods....im hooked. Its a shame that noone plays mare nostrum and the only server with constantly assured players is the Danzig-only server on Ostfront.
