Red Orchestra: enlistment

Im a beta tester for Darkest Hour , Normandy Mod and have been playing RO since it was a mod for UT2 beta 1…lol…I have seen a lot in game. Any questions on DH just ask on TS chaps!

great stuff puff, ive done some beta testing in my time, but usually for games im not so interested in, so to test for a game like ro, and its normandy mod, thats good, ill have to bend ur ear about it on ts

Ok, to make it simpler to meet. I will always stay on TS when I’m playing RO

So ANYONE can join me on TS and we can do some mudcrawling.

And even when I’m not playing it, but still are in the 331 squadron channel, come in, say hello and be free to ask, ill come right away.

Off course, if more wanted, we can do some flying as well.

Lets get something more than just a list, lets make use of it!:wink:

I have been playing RO for some time now. Last weeks less and less. I choose the larger servers. I prefer a few maps like Pariser Platz. I play as some kind of infantry soldier. Don’t like the specialist roles. A few times I manned an AT-gun.

Groups like the german BOH are sometimes nicely organised. So I join them in infantry battles and cooperate. Tanking without a known comrade is annoying. Would be nice to have a group with a few tanks.

ill try to be on tomorrow for a while stuntman, maybe we can team up then, if not later in the week for sure

I love RO although i have not been on for a while Ming got me into BF2142 and so that has been giving me my first person action recently.

I will try to pop on RO soon.

Sounds great!

I will see if I can be online today.

:slight_smile:

downloaded the darkest hour mod today, had a little bash before i started work, seems ok, some sound effects seem a little bad puff, the lee enfield is a strange one, but im liking the opening music, “dont lets be beastly to the germans”…

Have the mod removed the original music?

I loved that music and still do…

I’ll have to download it again i didn’t know any of us lot were still playing it! I loved it, but it’s like all those games, if you don’t stay regular, you get wasted very quickly :frowning:

Is there a list of patches and add ons please gents, re-installing

it updates automatically through steam for me

D’ohh, forgot it was a Steam app until I started to re-install, Registered as EGF_Kristorf gents.

Any Mods required???

nope, not unless u wanna play the darkest hour mod, ive had a few goes on it and its shaping up ok

Do there be a link for that tharr mod me 'arty?

Unfortunately and strangely enough : my Buddies folder in the multiplayer menu has disappeared :confused:

It has been deleted by RO itself.

RO use “Steam friends” now.

Log onto Steam and click the friends button. Now you have to write down either E-mail or the nickname of other players.

Thx Stuntman for your reply. I already thought something was wrong!

Darkest Hour Patch status…as posted by Psycho_Chicken

Just a quick update for everyone on the progress of the patch. I know that it was promised that the patch would be released this weekend and that many people are upset and disappointed that so far it has not. As such, I feel that an explanation is in order.

I have been working in conjunction with the DH devs over the last few days to try and find a solution to the crash issue and while we had managed to reduce the frequency of the crashes, we couldn’t eliminate them completely. The intention had been to simply release what we had and at the very least, try to improve people’s game experiences, however at the eleventh hour we had a breakthrough. Once we realised that we had potentially come up with a proper fix, we decided that it was better to delay the patch for a day or so to fully implement the fix and test it out. We felt that we couldn’t release a patch that we knew didn’t work while we sat on a fix that potentially did.

At the time of posting, we are cautiously optimistic that we have managed to nail this bug. It’s impossible to be 100% sure just yet as we haven’t yet had long enough to test it fully, however since implementing these changes we have been able to play through multiple US maps in a row without experiencing a single crash. We will continue to test it and if it manages to hold up ok, it will be packaged up along with the new sounds, fixed maps and a smattering of other tweaks and bug fixes, and released in a few short hours.

We sincerely apologise for the delay and any inconvenience caused by not making our intended release date, however we would rather wait an extra day or two and release a working product than to rush a patch out the door and break our promise of a fix. I suspect that the majority of you guys would too.

Thank you all for your patience this last week and for your continued support. Believe me when I say that the guys really appreciate it.
