RO:Ostfront was better, but RO2 isn't bad, especially now that they made 3 versions (classic, "realism" and action). The style of game you get depends on which of those servers you join. Get on classic and you will find a much more realism style game (ie slower, harder to aim, more lethal weapons, no spawn on squad leader). Most of the original fan base for RO ditched RO2, but its definitely improved a whole lot since launch. If you can get it for 75% off or 50% it might be worth it. Just needs more custom maps now or maybe new theatre with one of the upcoming expansions

They had a real identity crisis with RO2, now they still don't really know what audience they want to aim for but at least they try to accomodate all now. Just make sure to try the different server types

I use to play WW2 themed call of duties (on cracked servers ofc) under the nickname of Narodni Heroj Sava Kovačević (also played modern warfares under different nickname) and i was quite proficient with bolt action rifles so i recon i could manage RO2 without disgracing myself.   :P

Lol RO2 is a litttttttle bit different from COD games.

Win awesome prizes!

E: Trine 2 CE -75% if someone wants
PCD62-VYZFI-K2EFL

(How to use the key

When you have the key (that looks like XXYYY-XXXYY-XYXYX or so), open the Steam client and click the Games menu, and click "Activate a Product on Steam..." and then enter the key when prompted and follow the instructions. Note: Please copy-paste the code, because sometimes it's hard to enter manually (0s and Os look similar and typos happen, etc). )

I actually bought a game, stalker of pipyrat (or something obviously I never played stalker yet) for £3

Any of you guys playing Red Orchestra 2 ? Is it worth those 11 Euros or should i rather splash them on some booze ?

I only played it a few hours. its really good shooter in its own right, but not so radically different that it didn't just feel same old same old. so I guess only grab it if your a huge shooter fan.

I don't know about Witcher 2, played the one. Was okay. But i like to "tweek" my hero a bit, and it just wasn't possible. Of course, the story is... just awesome. But sadly, it's just not a RPG, more of a scenario game, with a fantastic choice of replies for discussion, and repercussions ingame. But not a RPG.

Bought it some days ago.. story and so on is good, but playingtime is reaaaallly short. For me it doesn't matter if it has 16 or whatever different endings if the average playingtime is short.

Playing time isn't short. Maybe compared to the first, but the first was so much back and forth pointlessly for quests that it got boring. Witcher 2 is amazing, well paced as well as quite long.

Anyone played Risen? Noticed it's only £3 and tempted.

Compared to other earlier games its short, but actually, all newer games are getting shorter.

Also, I liked Risen, Part 2 is good too. It's kind of a Gothic, but imo better.

That is true, just look at the Mass Effect games which have gotten progressively shorter. But then again as with Witcher 2 in terms of story the third is better paced and keeps you interested rather than sending you on endless side quests all of the place. I think I'd rather better pacing and story than over all play time.

Hmm definitely considering it. Looked at a couple of reviews and seems fairly solid. For £3.7 can hardly complain.

Red Orchestra 2 is meant to be realistic. It's not. The developers tried to expand the game to interest too many people, making it too arcadey for the realism lovers (Me) and too realistic for the cod, bf3, dods lovers. So in the end no one liked it and it died within weeks of release.

But there is one good note. It is moddable and mods are being made at the moment, hopefully a good realism mod.

Who's idea is to put 40% discount tag on ARMA II CO?

If developers decided to leech extra buck based on DayZ popularity, that's understandable and fine by me.

If they are cooperating with Valve, that's fine as well I guess.

But if it's Valve's idea, I must say that is kinda lame.

Risen is a good game. Also, Tages DRM has been removed and there isn't 3 machine activation limit anymore.
