Which mod?

[Zetsumei]

tbh i hope to see more addon mods for ROHOS rather than standalone.
Just allowing you to filter out servers running them or not running them.

Especially if the core gameplay is still RO but on a different front.
I mean if a mod would be modern warfare a more standalone approach would make more sense to me.

Personally I would love to see a pacific mod done correctly. Most of the games currently out there are kinda meh(Don't even think of bring up COD), Non of them have that Red Orchestra feel.

*Also in side note, we should be able to use our bayo-equipped rifles as throwing spears to hunt opposing team members for sustenance in the barren winter wastelands of Stalingrad . . . Hey, people are edible too!

Either the Pacific or the Winter War. I'm not interested much in the Western Front or its Southern equivalents.

Spain 36-39

or

China 36-44

Spain, China and Winter War.......all the forgotten fronts from the 1930s-1940s

The Winter War isn't exactly forgotten.

The awesome finnish swearing alone would make a game.

 

[-[SiN]-bswearer]

by forgotten i mean "overlooked"

 

[Hunt3r.j2]

I'd like to see Vietnam.

 

[dogbadger]

I'd like to see Vietnam.

if this poll included it - i would have voted it.
In fact if RO2 had turned out to be anything other than exactly what it is now, i would have wanted a vietnam setting.

hey guys LNP (long time no post)
I voted for the pacific theater mod, although I have always wanted a winter war mod I should have read through the poll shouldn't I? I am kinda wondering why there is a western europe option. would this be like 1939 mod? or would it be a DH for ROHOS, anyway see you guys around

 

[TodSky]

France 1940 or Poland 1939 would be very interesting.

 

[=GG= Mr Moe]

Just thinking (that explains my headache ) It would be cool to see a mod based on Harry Turtledove's World at War novels.

I voted Western Europe, so long as it's not 98% all gun-ho American missions like every other WWII game out there..... other countries fought too yas know

A decent balance between maps/missions for each allied nation etc. would be nice.... say 4-5 US based missions, 4-5 British, 4-5 French Resistance (Maquis), 4-5 Canadian missions and a couple of other allied nations if there's time, against Germany, Italy and other sub-branch forces of occupied europe.

Or maybe 2-3 different maps for each, rather then 4-5.

I mean Western Europe has been done to complete death over the last few years with games like Medal of Honor, Call of Duty, Battlefield, Brothers in Arms, Day of Defeat, etc..... but most of them are mostly revolving around the US..... and while not trying to take away from US acomplishments during WWII, many countries were fighting brutal battles long before they entered the war and not everybody in the world who plays these games are from the US.

Just a bit more variety and relation to others around the world with their own country's historic battles would be nice.

And while Darkest Hour isn't horrible.... it hasn't really peaked my interest much and I find some of the weapons horrible to use.

why does everyone want western europe and winter???? comparitively there are sooooooooo fewer pacific games and in general not a lot at all but almsot ALL ww2 games are in western.

Considering the Pacific was mostly to do with Japan and the US, why would anybody else around the world not of the US or Japan have any relation to that front?

It was mostly navel and dog fighting for the most part.... and the battles on the various islands....... well, looking at it game-wise, each map would basically be the same look, feel and approach. Different objectives for the most part, but it'd all take place on a different shaped island, with similar jungles, the same enemies, the same weapons, Japan vs. US overall..... the variety would be minimal compared to Western Europe battles or Winter War.

I played and beat Call of Duty: World at War, and while most of it took place in the Pacific, the graphics were pretty and the story line was somewhat decent..... every level, every mission was basically the exact same thing over and over again, with a few trivial differences in attacks or objectives.

I'd be bored in three days.

Pacific. Less teams overall compared to the Mediterranean, which means less work. This would mean that it would be easier to get the content done.

We have also not seen a Pacific theater in RO as of yet. I would like to use Japanese equipment to.


Though, I would prefer a Vietnam game over any other setting.

The problem is with the pacific is that Unreal Engine 3 doesn't do jungles very well.

Maybe so, but the trees look pretty good. I am sure it could be done. Might run a bit slower though.

Likewise, why would anyone in the world care about Finland? No one else in the world would care about a conflict with them (using your own logic).

The same can be said about the Winter War. The setting and maps will hardly vary.

Speaking of the same weapons, the Winter War would use the same weapons. Hell, half would be recycled over from stock HoS.

The same can be said about objectives. The same old European style towns, capturing yet another artillery position, ect.

And to put some facts down, there are more Americans that play games than European countries. Especially small ones like Finland. More players with interest = more people playing the mod.

I have also never played a WWII FPS that didn't portray the Japanese as mindless animals either. I don't think one exists. It would be great if a mod/game came out with RO's neutral stance.


Really, the anti-American crap gets old fast. Surely you could have thought of a more clever way to bash us.

Note: I don't hate the Finns, just using the Winter War as an example. I'd play a Winter War mod/game, but it wouldn't be my first choice.

 

[Karabiner98k]

I would like the Napoleonic era
Or maybe the Seven Years' War, a war which Winston Churchill famously named the 'First World War'
