Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45
This is pretty much in competition to Fallguys thread, but a little competition now and then is a healthy thing :) And anyway, they're somewhat dissimilar game types.
I'm going to take this opportunity to re-mention Red Orchestra, and since I can't seem to write any kind of description that doesn't sound lame or propaganda-ish, here's a copy/paste of the overview section 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 * Fight the full range of combined arms infantry and vehicle combat in detailed environments based on real-world data, from city-centre to deeply rural settings * Realistic bullet and projectile ballistics will make you duck for cover * Coordinate strategies with your team-mates via Voice Over IP * Authentic Immersive Sound FX and 3d Positional Sound System * 3d “Iron Sights” and unique 3d scope system * True weapon deployment system including resting rifles on support * Historically accurate artillery system * Distance-based sound system dynamically creates the battle ambiance * Advanced player movement system featuring diving over obstacles and leaning * Custom 8 way animation system for highly realistic player animations Some background: the mod version of the game won $50,000 and two engine licences from the Make Something Unreal contest, and the devs have had going on eight months to build a really incredible game, from what we've heard on the forums. The changelog apparently runs over a hundred pages :) Primary release of the game is going to be over steam, and there will be a box version in stores. Release date is sometime in march. Questions? |
I'll have to check this one out..:yup:

RO is now available for pre-order and pre-load over steam, for the low, low price of 22.50 american after pre-order discount. (but before taxes) I'm preloading right now, and ordering soon.
