  • Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45

    I hadn't realized they were making a stand-alone RO game. It'll be delivered via Steam.

    Key Features
    • Fight intense battles on 13 authentic Eastern Front combat environments
    • Crew 14 fully realized vehicles with highly detailed exterior and interior models
    • Choose from 28 authentic infantry weapons
    • Full 32 player online Multiplayer Support
    • Unique Setting – the only FPS to focus on the WWII Russian Front
    • Engage enemy tanks at 800 metres and more with the Simulation-level armored vehicle combat








    Tripwire Interactive today announced a new World War II PC game, Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45. Tripwire will deliver its award-winning first person shooter via Steam, Valve's online content delivery system. The original Red Orchestra won Nvidia's "$1,000,000 Make Something Unreal" contest. Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 is a standalone follow-up, built on Epic’s Unreal 2.5 EngineTM, that introduces new gameplay and features.

    Red Orchestra lets players choose from 28 infantry weapons or crew one of 14 different fully-realised vehicles on the Russian Front between 1941-45. The combination of roles across more than one dozen maps, based on real-world locations and battles, allows Red Orchestra to finally achieve its goal of delivering a full first-person, WWII combat simulation.

    In its Christmas 2005 issue, PC Gamer UK touts that Red Orchestra is “showing awesome potential,” and that “We already knew the mod was genius, but this is even better” as part of its two-page preview of RO: O41-45.

          It looks pretty good. Except for the tracer rounds. They make it look like star wars.

            The Soviets really did use green tracers.

              hopefully these will be fixed as it looks like something that will be worth my attention

                Not insta-prone, but diving. If you watch the section where they're being fired on by the German MG, you'll note that when the first guy dives, he is actually visibly diving, and when the second guy (who we're seeing the action from) dives, it occurs in stages: Standing, half height, ground. What you won't see is anyone shooting at anyone with any accuracy while doing it, nor standing straight back up within a millisecond of hitting the ground.

                            Wow I only just realized how many maps/vehicles/weapons it includes, that's a steal:

                            - Fight intense battles on 13 authentic Eastern Front combat environments
                            - Crew 14 fully realized vehicles with highly detailed exterior and interior models
                            - Choose from 28 authentic infantry weapons
                            I also like the idea of 'Simulation-level armored vehicle combat ', ie to have any hope of survival in a tank you have to have a full crew, no racing around like a one-man army.
