There has to be a few other people on here that play Red Orchestra! For those of us who do, I propose we get onto a server one night within the next week or two and fool around!
my username is SnozzFartz (spin-off of the Willy Wonka Snozzberries....hee) so add me as a buddy on there!

Lol...I've seen a few of you online already. I've been playing since RO was first released. I was looking for a group dedicated to tactical realism but most have so much drama amongst their players to even bother considering them anymore. I play as: 3rd Reich Mike.
I gotta say after playing MANY WW2 fps games such as BF1942, CoD 1-3...RO is by far the best I've played. There are a few conversions coming out shortly that I'm anticipating to be quite phenomenal in quality as well...check the RO forums for more about those if you guys aren't aware of them yet.
I've heard a few good things about Theater of War too but I believe that isn't in the fps category.

I totally agree. Waaaay too much whining and obsessing over everything really takes the fun out of it. I play with the name Altemus, and I'm usually on the FK-MOD servers or anything that has a decent amount of players and a low ping.

Yeah it's the whining and backstabbing that puts me off...it is a game after all. I do like a command structure as well as any "realism" a group can incorporate into such a great game, but I feel that should be undertaken with the same understanding that "it is for fun" and not the end of the world when someone loses. I was interested in joining either the 5th Gebirgsjager or 20 Panzer Grenadiers ...but nah...i'm ok. ;D

Steam username is still snozzfartz but my game name is now *PS*Neidy.
I just play with my brother. We both have the game and our computers are close to each other, so we usually run around as anti-tank soldiers and do a kickass job on maps like Arad.

Could you elaborate on that? There's many aspects that make up the armor differences between vehicles as well as penetration points according to angle of attack along with accurate soft spots. I never played WW2OL because it didn't look good enough imo to pay a monthly fee for...graphics like BF1942 doesn't exactly warrant good memories of gaming for me. But then I've never tried it. Looking at their site a few minutes ago tho' I see that there is free 14 day trial. Hell, now ya just can't beat free...I'll have to check it out in a bit. ;D Mike

its just massive scale and massively realistic.
RO has better art.
RO has it where your tank HUD changes color as it gets dammaged right?

Yes the HUD does change like that as it would be imaged that someone in the tank would have some idea of the condition of the tank. But I do agree...I have that option turned off tho' Also, there has been a server upgrade allowing for up to 50 people at a time to cram in with little to no effect in game play such as lag. Not to mention 3 huge mods in development: Carpathian Crosses, Darkest Hour: Normandy 1944, Mare Nostrum: From North Africa to Italy. Mike

Yeah, WW2Online is much more realistic as far as the tank damage goes (and most others).
RO is a good balance between the ultra real WW2Online, and the ultra gamey Battlefield 2.

I play RO without any sort of HUD, so that isnt an issue for me, but yes, I highly agree with the tank penetration problems, it is a high pritority in realistic games like that. I too rarely find myself playing RO now...

New question.....
Where (other than online) could I purchase this game?
And also, will I need a powerful comp for this? I have an HP Pavilion a1025c..........will that work?
Thanks

It runs fine on my old 256mb video card, 1.5 gigs of 333 ram and 2.0 gig processor. Also, you can't buy it in stores anymore. You can buy it through Steam as a download. It is like $20.00. I buy a lot of games off steam.
