How about they make an SP campaign from the German perspective with mature characters, depth, branching storyline and that doesn't treat war like an action movie but tries to convey absolute horror.

I know I ask a lot :D

TWI could adapt the film Stalingrad and have the main character freeze to death out on the steppe at the end. It would be awesome.

Seriously though, if TWI go down that route of making a war game in the same vein as All Quiet on The Western Front, Stalingrad, Downfall, Thin Red Line etc about the horror and pointlessness of war, and give it deep characters that you care about and giving the player some very tough decisions that mean something in the game I'd play it. Might even give the game industry some more credibility as an art medium.

That's exactly the line of thinking going through m head, I wan't an anti-war game that pulls no punches and leaves chest beating hollywood heroism behind.

Well actually they said they'd probably announce it on E3 07.

10:25pm european time and nothing, fail :(

Actually Yoshiro said waaay before 2007 that "they would have something for GDC 07 about next game".

I hope they'll announce something before ROL Winter Cup so we'll have a better activity around there.

Word.

Even a little reassurance that something is developing would be nice.

it's probably RO for console. Red Orchestra: Reloaded, now with crosshair, slower enemies, and symbols on every teammate.

Say 'no' to gaming cliches! STEP AWAY FROM TEH CLICHE'! *remember TWI, your dedicated players are an advanced group - we can smell generic mainstream shlop a mile around the corner.. don't make us riot! (okay, okay.. some of them did buy CoD4. I'm not talking about THOSE blokes obviously)*

I hope it will be an entire remake of the RO mod labelled as RO2 but with better graphics and other features like bullet penetration, mantling, etc. Maybe TW could even add planes as well.

I can't wait for TWI's Terror Strike, it'll be a CS and COD4 killer!111.
