If the past has any inclination of how things will be. You will have HOS servers still up and running for those wanting to play that. You will have up servers with RS for those wanting to play that.

You won't see both on the same server from map to map - the servers will most likely be dedicated to the particular game period as they've always been when MODS are created from an original game.

You'll be launching two different games completely. You can only choose one. When you get tired of one then you can launch the other.

They'll be two separate server browser most likely too.

Our server since it's been mostly dead since the launch of HOS will probably be one of the servers which will have RS up and running upon release. Time will tell.

I think they already announced that both will be able to run on one server simultaneously.

While we aren't yet ready to release the exact pricing, we will clarify something right now. We will not be throwing the current RO2 community under the bus!!! Our current plan is to allow existing RO2 owners to upgrade to Rising Storm at a significant discount compared to someone that just buys Rising Storm outright. Additionally, we will not be splintering the community by keeping players separated. Servers will be able to run RO2 and Rising Storm maps back to back on the same server. Finally, while we're not quite ready to release the details of exactly how it will work, RO2 players that don't own Rising Storm won't just get booted off the server when a Rising Storm map comes up. Rather RO2 owners will be able to play Rising Storm even if they haven't purchased the add-on, likely with some limitations on weapon/class selection. So to summarize, RO2 owners will get a discount on Rising Storm, and everybody will be able to play together on the same servers!

correct.

[GARY OAK]

i think i will just be playing rising storm until there are some more tanks/vehicles realsed.

because Knee mortars.

[TheStranger]

I will be playing Rising Storm. I quit playing RO2 because I got tired of the Ostfront.

[The Commissar]

I will play both, but the majority of the time playing will be in HoS.
If they could make it so that the maps could change between HoS and RS, as someone previously said, that would be fantastic.

EDIT: Heard off the stream that maps between the two games should be interchangeable.

they will. we'll be able to play both games on the same server.

[The Beast (nl)]

Will play RS untill the bugs in RO2 are ironed out.

[Shadegrown]

I'll get RS, and depending on how much I like it I'll likely play both side-by-side. Initially mainly RS because of new content.

[Giuliano]

Seeing as most servers will probably include both games, I'd like to say I'd be playing them equally. However, if this doesn't happen I'll play RS almost exclusively for a little while then eventually play both again.

Commisar, if you play too much Rising Storm you will need to change name... in Kempei officer !

Guys, do you think Rising Storm will have same problems with Realism and Classic modes ?

Problems? This time they got the time to balance the maps for both modes, so hopefully not. The mechanics are likely the same so if you don't like Realism or Classic then you could say it has the same problems.

[Hilldog]

I think i'll pretty much just play Rising Storm, I don't really play HOS as it is.

[Kage78]

I will get it, play it and at the same time start drooling over, when some of it´s features will be ported to RO2.
