Played the Foy map last night and i really like the atmopshere.
Nice gritty look.

 

[BlackLabel]

mhhh...is it just me or is the 5.1 sound strange in DH ? Everytime i walk it sounds like its left and right of me instead of centered like in stock RO.

I played Stavelot yesterday and damm..was a blast really.

 

[derrtyd]

Will this mod be usable with the Steam version of RO? I want to buy RO and saw this mod but I will be buying the Steam version so just checking.

 

[Lt_Kettch]

In fact this mod will be released over steam soon and there is no other version than the steam version
If you buy the game in a shop you have to register it on steam.

I'm not sure if this has been answered yet but how realistic will the King Tiger be? Will allied soldiers be able to destroy it a few shots from a Sherman or bazooka? or will it be the beast that it actually was?

 

[Shurek]

Wait and see..

 

[Dcode]

Looking forward to the new release. The previous versions have got better and better over time, especially the maps which are truly excellent. They amplify the intensity and scale ten fold over stock RO maps.

Err...Considering a sherman with 76mm gun can penetrate up to 160mm with HVAP rounds, and that a KT has a 80mm side armour, won't the answer be "both" ?

It will? Has something been announced?

 

[Freak1]

he probably meant ro 1

 

[Psycho_Sam]

No Nestor means that DH have never said that the mod will be released over Steam for RO. People are just assuming they will do, which is not a good idea until its official.

 

[Lt_Kettch]

I assume whatever I want. And why shouldn't be DH released over steam it is not that bad ...

You are not assuming, earlier you were claiming this as a fact. Nobody is questioning DH's quality, we are just saying it has not been announced officially. I could say;

"In fact Killing Floor will be released on the 14th April 2009" but what would be the point as I have no idea when it will be released, but I may assume it!

So in other words just wait till the DH team let us know when the next release is coming and in what format.

Thank you Sam, I couldn't have put it better myself!

 

[worluk]

actually im quite sure some DH dev once posted it will be released via steam, the post got edited later on. But maybe Kettch and me are just on the same drugs...

 

[PsYcH0_Ch!cKeN]

You're not crazy Worluk, however that post was made by an excited ex-mapper shortly after MN went on Steam, based on his personal assumption that if they'd done it, then we must have been next in line. It's not quite so black and white in reality however, and despite endless speculation on the part of the community, we've not officially stated anywhere what our method of release will be.

 

[Noizekick]

But Steam had a news item about several RO Mods (plural), with MN being the first one, to be released through Steam.

Red Orchestra MODs - Now on Steam

It's true that that they didn't say a thing about DH in the news item, but which other MOD could it be? Not CC, I think, and surely not Defense Alliance 2.
So that leaves us with the only available mod for RO besides MN, CC and DA2: Darkest Hour.

Also, DH is the only mod beside MN, that Steam has "promoted" before:

Weekend Deals: Eve Online and Red Orchestra

So either DH will be released on Steam in the future, or Steam/Valve have changed their minds or something.
But I don't think it's that strange people are thinking DH will be released on Steam, with all these "hints".
