<div class="IPBDescription">Has anyone here played it?</div> So I'm brousing the net and I come across <a href='http://www.redorchestramod.com' target='_blank'>this mod</a> for UT2404: Red Orchestra. It looked so good that I felt like buying UT, but looks can be decieveing, so I wanted to ask the community of another brilliant mod if they'd played Red Orchestra at all.

    There were a bunch of threads on it a while back. Apparently it's really good. I never played it or anything, so...

    It's an UT2k3 mod if I remember correctly, but it probably works with 2k4.

    I recently bought UT2004, and I believe the new version of RO is coming out May 20th. I'll definitely be trying it out <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    I also recently (as recent as oh say...yesterday) bought UT 2K4. Maybe we should get some organization going and get people from the forums on our buddy lists <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->.

    Red Orchestra looks GREAT! I'm really looking forward to it, I think Alien Swarm is due this month as well.

    It looks good, but plays terribly. They took the whole "super realism" thing way too far, and the maps suck.

    It's a UT2003 mod, but they are porting it to UT2004 as we speak. Should be out soon, can't wait! Looks great and it's on a great engine!

    1.2 was somewhat boring, but 2.0 should be great.

    Its a wonderful mod, definately deservant of your time. I myself was NEVER board with it in 1.2(older versions though, yes), and the harsh realism made me want to play it more. The gritty feeling of it all is amazing, and many of the maps are VERY well designed, and are not only good gameplay wise- but incredibly fun to look at too(In fact, the new Danzig is my background right now).

    Its a great mod, and will continue to be, until...well, more of them come out.

    Zazi is making Maps for RO now as well. He has a great one(from the look of it) on thier level design forums.
    And I dont think it takes the super realism thing to far. Its just right. Its no arcade game like DoD was. But its definately a great play experiance.
    I love the different feel that the Russian and German side of the war brings to a game. Its got alot going for it. Check out 2.0 if you have the chance!

    So does it have vehicles or is it all infantry based?

    From what I understand Ryo, RO is currently infantry only. UT2k4 is supposed to change that with support for adding vehicles, but at the moment, just the grunts.

    From my few experiences with the mod, not too many aussies play it, but its what dod used to be like and used to attempt to be like - gritty war sim. Then DoD went to shizen, became counter defeat and plays like a 1 joystick 2 button shooter <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Well, RO will have vehicles in 2.0. WAS going to in 2k3, but then decided 2k4 only.

    it has vehicles in 2.1 , fly up in the air a little , type rogame.rovehicle in the console and bam a jeep. Works best on ponyri <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    The one thing thats really impressive to me(besides... well everything in it...) is the teams dedication to bring every infantry combat system into play for each side.
    They are looking to bring vehicles in eventually, but as they said, only if it adds to the play experiance of being in an infantry squad during WW2. Which would mean alot of work, like making sure that the tanks and such are not over powered, and are realistic in damage and scale.
    I myself am just waiting on them to implement Molotov Cocktails...
    And Heavy MGs... <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo-->
