[QUOTE=Nestophales;40853396]For everyone saying the two should be separate fail to realize: A series like RO, which has a very small, very niche audience compared to other big name FPS games, you absolutely have to combine the game and the expansion or else you'd end up dividing the community and in all likely hood you'd probably end up killing the original game in the process.[/QUOTE] If they ever do another Darkest Hour I would hope they create it the way RS was made. Hire the mod team to work on it.
[QUOTE=TheCloak;40872504]Is this Steam? What theme is it[/QUOTE] It's [URL="http://pulseh.deviantart.com/art/PixelVision-Skin-for-Steam-211426153"]PixelVision[/URL].
[QUOTE=spekter;40872952]If they ever do another Darkest Hour I would hope they create it the way RS was made. Hire the mod team to work on it.[/QUOTE]I'm kind of hoping they do this because they could probably reuse a lot of assets
The new Darkest Hour is being created separately by the original mod team. It's now a CryEngine game called "Festung Europa." [url]http://www.festungeuropagame.com/[/url] I think TWI will eventually release a Western Front campaign, too, the sane way that they created Rising Storm. But I don't think TWI will want to release anything around Festung Europa, out of respect for the team.
I don't mind that they merged the games togheter. But playing Heroes of Stalingrad with a japanse theme with music is kinda weird, hope they fix it.
[QUOTE=Zackin5;40847273]If you only own RO2 you can still play on the RS levels if the server changes to them, but you can't play any other class then rifleman unless you buy it (You also can't earn levels) The same thing also applies if you only own RS but not RO2, just in reverse (Rifleman only in RO2 levels, everything unlocked in RS)[/QUOTE] That's actually really cool i can install RO2 and get a trial effectively.
I like the idea of merging, but it's kind of annoying for me because right now I'm too strapped for cash to grab RS, and all the populated RO2 servers are running RS maps.

[QUOTE=JoeSkylynx;40880449]You can still join those servers. You can only play rifleman though.[/QUOTE] I know, and that gets extremely boring and very annoying very quickly. Also you can't even fully play rifleman, US players can't use Garands.
Man this game does my head in... It's probably just me but there is always SO MUCH happening on-screen. It can be hard to tell the Axis and Allies apart, and combined with the busy HUD I find myself becoming a little confused at times. Too much detail haha - the mini map isn't very good either. Still, I've barely played it so it's probably one of those 'give it time' things.

It's far more immersive and enjoyable. You don't need most hud elements anyway.
I keep the stamina bar so I know if I should rest before I banzai again.
[QUOTE=junker154;40890276]I usually disable every hud element except for the kills in the right upper corner. It's far more immersive and enjoyable. You don't need most hud elements anyway.[/QUOTE] how do you disable individual hud elements?
[QUOTE=DarkZero135;40902618]how do you disable individual hud elements?[/QUOTE] In the options, I guess.
