Be killed in Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad is not like the usual death in a multiplayer first-person shooter. Most games of this type die heroically to do with the bodies of their enemies around them. Here, death comes very quietly. Usually, you die without a clue that something is wrong, taking a single bullet in the head fired by an unseen enemy. This is both the appeal and the developer shooter frustration then Tripwire Interactive, the Second World War battle here is so realistic that you will need to approach every battle like a soldier actual infantry or are at risk of dying death quick and brutal real Infantry soldier. Some features have been added to the game to make things a little easier recruits - a total couple single player campaigns - but this game is still one of the most authentic and unforgiving shooters on the market. It is sure to thrill serious students of warfare and sure to frustrate the players run and gun looking for a quick fix flavored WWII.
You know the old saying that the bullet with your name on it is never heard? That pretty much sums up how battle in Red Orchestra 2. The core of the game is a standard feature on territorial control in which groups of up to 32 players in German and Soviet teams battle for the vacant land around Stalingrade around 1943. There but the fighting mechanics are much more brutally realistic compared with most shooters. Although taken on the role of the standard game types for multiplayer shooters such as strength, attack soldiers and snipers, there are no concessions whatsoever to make it easier for you. There reticle orientation here. When you want to aim your gun, the old way should do: looking down the barrel and using iron sights.

Also, there are graphics to denote ammunition. If you want to see what you have to clip, you need to check manually, and even then will only have a vague idea of how many rounds you have left through texts such as "Have you stayed about half a clip." More specifically, only shots may even kill. If you do something completely normal for the average shooter, but incredibly suicidal in the real world, as the load across an open field toward a ruined church by the enemy, will die. It is very possible that you never see or hear the shot that kills because it will come from the gun of a hunker down, smarter opponent who takes the time to line up shots from behind cover.
This is the blessing and the curse of Red Orchestra 2. There is only one way to play this game: You have to be very patient, together with his teammates, and approach every situation as the royal troops would have when They are fighting for Stalingrad during WWII. All weapons restrictions here make it impossible to snap quick pressure shots with any kind of accuracy, which means that you should take time to find a good shooting position and then shoot carefully. Quick-cooking means wild firing, which just alerts enemies to your position and gets a bullet in the face. It also increases the likelihood that the track of the number of shots have been fired and empty a clip at the wrong time lost. If they do not shoot with elegance, which inevitably runs out of bullets, just when you need it, and again, to end up with a convertible skull.
This may not sound like a lot of fun, and not the first. Initially, the game seems chaotic and random, with many sudden deaths, caused by enemies dug unjust killing without revealing their positions. You never know where they are until after death, when the camera gently sways and focusing on them in their hidey holes. But after some time spent with the game, you can not help but get hooked on how demanding challenge offered. If you go into matches with experienced partners working together, you can learn a lot just to let them take the initiative, while seeing how maps, clear buildings of enemies, and safe places are nearby. The intensity is high exceeded because you never know when death will call you. The pressure that has everything on the line all the time really pushes forward, which encourages keep playing and building their skills. They do not even realize how tense you are when you play the game until something happens that you do not expect, like a Russian club you can not see it on the head with the butt of the gun - with which nearly jump out of your chair surprise.
The maps are very well done, sticking to realistic ground battle WWII experienced expected from German and Russian troops withdrawal from in and around Stalingrad. The design and architecture complement the style of play demanded here. A pile of rubble and blown buildings provide the necessary coverage to keep breathing and make sure that the battle takes place in often small enough to jump out of your skind. So you have the streets of destroyed cities, rustic farms, abandoned villages, narrow infirmaries, crowded rail yards, offices and claustrophobic.
This is not the most attractive shooter that will play this year, but it works smoothly even on mid-range machines, and the delay is not a problem, even when played on a full 64-player server. However, it is loaded with a kind of gloom war worn detail that determines the time and place as effectively as the optical elements with light effects. Luxuries such scenes are also very well done, playing out like old newsreels shown in theaters before movies in the season. Efficient your display immerses the grim struggle. The audio is an equally strong quality, although both martial music and vocals cut occasionally, forcing a restart to exit this unintentional silent-movie mode.
Despite his commitment to authenticity, Red 2 orchestra is not entirely realistic. The problems are caused by a handful of notable flaws. Sometimes it can be difficult to properly position itself to meet. It's a little too easy in the chaos of battle to close the wrong side of some debris and accidentally exposed to enemy fire. Sometimes you have to get ridiculously close the item appears to provide cover for dip selection. Another more serious problem comes with cooking. drop ball is supposed to be part of the physical model, but it is hard to see much effect, at least in the distances involved in the maps. Aiming high to counteract gravity pulling bullets toward the ground seems to come mainly from the lack of height, so that the mechanics seem a bit off. The most problematic flawt may be technical variety, however: random crashes sometimes can take you from Stalingrad to your Windows desktop in a hurry.
