Sure - but Ostfront was only announced under 2 weeks ago! DoD:S has been on the news wires for 2 years...

Just wait until reviews come out for the game, along with word of mouth after actually playing it. The community will be a very nice size.

Hrm, Day of Defeat Source pwns Counter-Strike: Source in results, but when paired against CSS the latter toally dominates....friggin lazy people.

Sorry, but it was just sitting there staring me in the face. I couldn't take it any more.

better way to fight
http://googlefight.com/index.php?la...+Ostfront+41-45"&word2="Day+of+Defeat+Source"

this wont search individual words, like day, defete. but whole phrase. we're not that bad.

RO-O will begin to pickup when more media is released I think, i hope now it's a retail venture theres money at stake here so throwing out media will do nothing but good.

The RO community is more lazy than the DOD community:

Leave out the "41-45" as not everyone is carrying that - http://googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=%22Red+Orchestra+Ostfront%22&word2=%22Day+of+Defeat+Source%22

And you get:

Red Orchestra Ostfront: 335,000
Day of Defeat Source: 2,070,000

Now, if you mess around, Ostfront was announced 12 days ago, making 28,000 per day. If I remember right, DOD:S was announced shall we say 400 days ago - making 5,000 per day Ok - I bet they got far more coverage in their first few weeks, but its fun to play with statistics!

What I am interested to see is what will happen in the long term, like 6 months and more after ROOst is released.

There is already a lot of speculation in the DoD:S and Steam forums about what ROOst will do to the DoD player base, doubtless much to the chagrin of the DoD fanboys!
