If you are fan of Tripwire Interative keep reading, if you are fanboy
stop reading, you wont be like this.
I said stop reading... and you still continue
It was quite clear that OstFront was just standalone game made from
a mod, and then came Killing Floor also made from the mod.
After that Tripwire have started to work on their first actual GAME.
However Tripwire is quite a extraordinary company, who doesnt
act like typical game companies, and we know that, and thats why
we love them.
First big PLUS comes from that they started Rising Storm modexperiment.
However that huge plus got few minor shadows. First is that
idea of it is quite surely calculated. Its not like modders would love
to make pacific mod. Its that HBO relased their Pacific TV-serie.
Second is that TWI doesnt seem to share anymore frontpage
space to other mods than RisingStorm like they did with OST.
(This is just my own opinion, not opinion of any mod team
as im not member of any mod team)
Second big plus comes from quality of work TWI boys have did and
antension they have gave to historical researching and co-operation
with different people that they have get historical things on line.
Third big plus comes from their work with doing FPS gameplay even better.
Totally new game mode isnt something we see nowadays in new FPS
relases. Also improvement on MG-deploying and other great features
will be propaply something we will enjoy while playing RO2. And quite sure
some of those features will be standards in FPS games few years from
now.
But no pluspoints without some minuses. And on my list one big
minus comes from playing with big boys. In my life i have learned that
dont play with big boys if you arent big yourself. And thats what
TWI boyes have did, when doing their first professional game.
Atleast there have been two major things which TWI have outsource
to best possible they can found,but best isnt allways best. Offcourse
its allways easy way to go and also end result is allways guaranteed.
However one biggest key element to humans is allways change.
Maybe a change of the life time. It makes us doing our best, pushing
the limits. Is Tripwire - Red Orchestra 2, a change of life time to
studio who have allready did motion captures to Avatar. Is RO2
something which makes them trying their best to show everybody
how good they are. No its not, its just a small task before next
massive film production. And you can see it from result. Result
is good but you can see from it that they havent spend sleepless
nights to fixing small things.
And same goes to Sam Hulick, the man is absolutly professional.
Tracks seem to be well produced. But in the end its just a cover band
playing Elvis. Even that they play perfectly the soul of songs is missing.
Maybe even with less of money but more of time and organizing, you
could have done a co-operation with east european academies.
Maybe a Fryderyk Chopin University of Music in Warsaw,
Sibelius academy in Helsinki or State University of Music and Performing
Arts in Stuttgart
Im quite sure they all have lot of young classical composers. And composeing classical songs to RO2 would be something like
change of a lifetime to them. Also they could easily use real orchestra
of their school.
Hope to see your opinions
