Red Orchestra mod news

Defence Alliance release date and Carpathian Crosses announced

Two great bits of news on modifications for Red Orchestra over the last few days. The first is that the Defence Alliance 2 team are releasing their Beta 1.6 version on 10th October. We have been playing this mod on our test servers and it is set for some pretty intense and fast-paced mayhem. To put it another way: it rocks! It is a free download - do NOT miss trying this one! For more information, head over to the Defence Alliance 2 site by clicking HERE.

And the second piece of news is the next new realism mod for Red Orchestra. This time the action remains on the Eastern Front, as "Carpathian Crosses" is announced and will bring the Romanians to the battlefield. This will bring in the next-largest army for the Eastern Front, along with some weaponry that people are not normally familiar with - just check out their R35 tank! The first models look superb and we are really happy to welcome this addition to the Red Orchestra family. Go check their new website for all the details by clicking HERE.

I'm only looking forward to the Carpathian Crosses mod the other 1 seems to be erm.... a bit unrealistic

I liked the DA2 video. Will it be realistic or arcade? Both suits me fine, just interested.

 

[SiC-Disaster]

just wondering why they make DA2 for ROOST at all?

lol not all games are made to be realistic, DA looks jus tlike UT 2004 good fast paced fun gaming, RO isnt exactly hardcore realism when you play it for so long but stil my favourite game

 

[PUTZ]

DA2 is a good bit of fun. It is similar to UT2k4 but kewler.

lol the tides have turned, when ro was a mod, it was a niche realism mod on a unrealistic game, now the da2 mod is a semi-unrealistic mod on a realism game. i will still dl it and giver a try tho.

 

[NuCleaR]

Yeah, but before i played red orchestra i only played unrealistic games.... And i dont want to get back to it because i enjoy red orchestra much more than games like CoD2 and BF2

 

[Mr._Kong]

This is great news, I cant wait to see what these mods add to gameplay.

Well RO:OST has features like weapon resting, free aim and ironsights, maybe they are hoping to incorporate all that into DA2.

SOrry if this is a noobish question. Will the servers that play the mod play only the mod? Or will the mod be dependant on the map that is voted for?

@Slyder: Since it's a mod I assume there's gonna be servers for that.

 

[Roman Elite]

Looks awesome. Can't wait to play them.

Here's some secret footage of the Romanian army in action w/ a captured BA!

Which mod? DA2 or MareNostrum?

If you're talking about DA2, it is the future.. so who's to say what would be realistic there?

If it's about Mare Nostrum.. i'm confused? ;p

There are also a few other mods working less-then-fully-in-the-radar that I know about

 

[TOG | -X-]

God help the Romanian army when they come up against the Russians ... I think we have found a nice target for the PTRD
Will definitely be downloading Carpathian Crosses can't wait

The only answer was a bit vague....
What I'm asking is if a server has the mod on, will all the maps always be the mod? Or will maps that are standard now still be available on servers that make the mod available?
Is it interchangable on a server to have both MOD'ed and standard maps available to play with the appropriate weapon and troop loadouts?

With Carpathian Crosses, yes, you can play a CC map and after that an RO map on the same server as long as both, you and the server have CC installed.

I mean DA2... And i have never liked future games.

You'll download CC automaticly, just like the free add-ons.
