RO1 maps you would like to recover for RO2?
- Thread starter [TORO]Patosentado
- Start date
I don't think it was either but I sacrificied a good mark in my degree at University to bring the community that map !
I would love to do some mapping for RO2 (brining across RO-fullmj and tulaoutskirts) but alas I now have a job and wife and no time to spare
Your sacrifice was nothing short of brilliant! I wasted a good part of my university on Tula Outskirts and I wouldn't have it any other way. Fantastic map some of the best FPS game play I have ever experienced on ALL 3 objectives! I salute you :IS2:
Koitos, Warsaw, Zhitomir.
Let's play "Name That Map" (please help!)
This is a custom map. Starting as Axis (attackers), you had two? armored carriers/half-tracks at spawn. There were no tanks in this map. The first objective was a two or three story farm house that was very difficult to take. The AT rifleman usually stayed in the 2nd/3rd story window waiting for the half-track to come.
The second or third objective was a train station off to the right side of the map, relative to the farm house. Eventually you move down a road as objectives are taken from the Russians, until finally you have to take a church as the last objective.
I remember the map being long (as in physical length) and difficult for Axis - especially taking that first objective. Usually you had to rush the house in an armored carrier from the side to avoid getting hit by the AT rifle, using smoke at the front and assaulting the house from both the front and rear.
The map may have already been named, but can anyone tell me which one this is?

You made Tula?? Damn good map, sir
Konigs is my favourite map but it would be awful in RO2. MGs rely on prone and in RO2 setting up prone is buggy as hell. Tanks would be much more abusable but in a really not fun RO2 aimbotting through smoke way.
Whilst Im not a major fan of Arad.. Later maps did it better.. It is without doubt one of the biggest flaws in RO2 and most obvious styles of maps thats missing..
The current combined arms maps are just ridiculous in terms of scale and speed. So on that note I would love to see Arad (perhaps with a new troop carrier) just to confirm that Ro2 could be great if only it had a better mix of map styles.

So I do hope you've spent the last five years working on volkhovriver Drax. Otherwise me be sad panda eyes.
Yessir.. I do plan on porting it over at some point.. updated gfx and all that..
However, I'm a tad busy IRL, so it may be many moons before I can commit serious work into it. :/
I plan on adding some nifty features into it as well.. should make it worth the wait

Zhitomir and Danzig are somewhat redundant since they already have Apartments. I would love to see a playable version of Arad made for RO2, god knows that wasn't the case in ostfront.
