Red Orchestra Steam Release Date

[Monkwarrior]

The team will move to the new UT3 engine if they sell enough copies to make such an investment. Buying it for SP only would not be my choice, but you can see for yourself in the demo.

 

[Arrowhead]

It's using the UT2.5 engine, is it not?

true, but by that logic Half-life should have been known simply as a quake 1 mod.

 

[Jimmeh]

Well, we've been given the go-ahead to post screens and what-not. I don't have any decent ones myself, but I found a nice in-depth article full of great screens and a video.

Looking good mate.

Hence why I said "UT2004" in my news post. :thumbs:

I really wish for a demo so I can test this before buying... :naughty:

 

[bigburpco]

I'm not too sure my computer would hold against its prowess...

There is going to be one, just not before release. The Devs said that they wanted to focus on getting the game finished first, then they'll finish up the demo

 

[Glo-Boy]

10% off? so what's that? $22.45 in total? I think maybe $2 or $3 in total would be most suitable.

 

[Caliban]

Looks awesome, Can't wait for the release!

 

[who]

They were that colour because of the frame rate of the video, I believe. In the actual release they will look like real tracers from WW2.

Actually, the Russians did indeed use light green tracers in WW2, the frame rate had nothing to do with the color. One thing the frame rate did do though is make the tracers look very long, sort of like lasers. The color will stay the same.

Also, when buying the game, keep realism in mind. This IS NOT a DOD:S on the Eastern front.

By the way, hello everyone.

 

[koondrad]

Yep, that's what I meant. The videos made it look like Return of the Jedi.

 

[Dcode]

The tracers are actually ball shaped and bounce off the surface of things. In game they dont look like lasers or anything sci fi infact they look really really good. You have to see them in action to belive.

Anyway here are some screens i took from the beta.

 

[koondrad]

This game is going to be awesome. Reminds me of O:FP.

BTW Dcode, you maybe should have linked those pics. They look great though.

 

[Dcode]

Sorry for overloading the thread on that one. In future ill bare this in mind

 

[koondrad]

WOO - Pre-loading!

 

[gick]

Pre loading now *rubs hands*

 

[Hellbound]

I have this pre-loaded since Friday... I can't wait for tonight

 

[Dougy]

Im having some concerns about buying the game.

I think it looks great and yadda yadda yadda.

Im just worried if its too niche....

I like realism, who doesnt? but it seems like the game could rate realism over gameplay.

So my plans are to leave it for a week or two and see peoples impressions...

Afterall, im working nightshift tonight and by the time i get home BF2 euro forces will be available.... yum yum.

 

[koondrad]

It's hardly expensive. Sounds like excellent value for money. I'll write a mini review tomorrow though.
