NEAT.

Only today, you can get red orchestra 2 for free and then keep it.

I remember that the german gaming magazine "Gamestar" once compared the multiplayer to MaB:Warband, since it´s also pretty challenging, yet rewarding
(sorry, won´t translate that)

i play with the native voices on, so that i never know what in the hell is happening around me. its also like a meta form of Rosetta stone, eventually some of the words are just engrained in you. Graaaannnata!!!! Though, ive always had a tough time with the japs, just sounds so......odd.

Play Rising Storm. I think it's included (though if you don't buy Rising Storm DLC you can only play as riflemen and not Machinegun, Commander, Squad Leader, Automatic Rifleman, Mortar, Flamethrower etc..)

It's much better than vanilla natzees vs communists crap.

Japan vs USA is the way to go. Banzai charges, flamethrowers, automatic rifles raping u. It's great

Post by: Vibe on April 24, 2014, 10:40:23 am: Tbh the game isn't as scary once you get to know the maps and where people camp. You just need to take it slower than the usual CoD/BF game, but still faster than Arma games :)
Title: Re: RED ORCHESTRA 2 FOR FREE ONLY TODAY
Post by: SixThumbs on April 24, 2014, 02:24:28 pm: I had decent success playing CoD the way this game expects you to play.

I'm pretty much done with playing FPS games, online or otherwise, in this setting/style though.

Post by: Christo on April 24, 2014, 09:14:26 pm: This is pretty cool, got some kills here and there, but my first map was some night map with japanese and I couldn't see a damn thing.

After that I went to apartments and camped, killed some more.

Then map switch and there were tanks, I had nobody with me but I scored a PZ IV kill alone :D fun.

Really challenging to play tank at first because you are blind as fuck. Especially my team gunners.

Post by: Grumbs on April 25, 2014, 12:04:49 am: Red Orchestra: Ostfront was better but RO2 is pretty good. Try classic mode for more realism

Post by: LordBerenger on April 26, 2014, 12:48:47 pm: Play this in VOIP when playing Rising Storm as Japs.

In public VOIP ofc.

Post by: Radament on April 26, 2014, 01:21:35 pm: played RO2 till release but unfortunately servers got empty pretty quick. recently i see lot of full servers (after the givaway thing) but people playing it seems to be the most retarded i saw in a while. teamkills apart....it seems to play garry's mod with kindergarden kids that spam voicechat with music (maybe is funny for a short period of time....but for all rounds...) , people that complain about NAME visibility in realism mode , people that shoot at your genitlals at round start....i prefer this game patched but i hope idiot people like those stop playing soon.

Post by: Kafein on April 26, 2014, 04:11:57 pm: By the way there's an option to make them speak their own language, which of course fixes the funny accents.
