I picked up Red Orchestra 2 with Rising Storm a few months ago on steam.
It's a WW2 game with a lot of maps and weapons. It's a bit dated running on Unreal Engine 3 but it still looks like a nice game.

It's got a small community as the game is a bit old but if you're looking for a good WW2 Game I would recommend you buy it.

There are different gamemodes but most servers run the same gamemode where you have to Capture and Defend multiple objectives while progressing through the map. There are a lot of Big and Small maps.

Teamwork and communication is vital to winning.

There are different roles in each game such as

  • Elite Assault - Has Submachine Guns and Assault Rifles at higher level e.g MP40, PPSH 41, PPSH 42, MKB 44 (STG 44), AVT 44 Battle Rifle (Fully auto SVT)
  • Assault - Just Submachine Guns e.g MP40, PPSH 41, PPSH 42
  • Rifleman - Has rifles e.g Kar 98, Mosin
  • Anti Tank Soldier - Has Anti Tank rifle with big rounds to penetrate armor and a pistol
  • Engineer - Spawns with an SMG and has 2x Anti Tank grenades and 2x Satchels which can be used to destroy tanks or barbed wire for friendly tanks to progress forware
  • Machine Gunner - Spawns with a Machine Gun and Pistol
  • Marksman - Spawns with a Sniper Rifle and Pistol
  • Squad Leader - VERY IMPORTANT ROLE - Spawns with SMG or Rifle and Pistol, Smoke and Binoculars(The squad leader is responsible for marking artillery for commander and people in the squad of the squad leader can spawn on him so it is important for him to stay alive in objectives)
  • Commander - VERY IMPORTANT ROLE -Spawns with SMG or Rifle and Pistol. Has x2 Smoke and binoculars.(Force dead people to spawn, Calls in Mortars/Artillery and Recon. Gives orders to team. Can also mark artillery himself)

You can level up your guns which unlocks 3 different upgrades for your gun. Some of the guns have scopes you can unlock

There is supression when you shoot at people which throws off their aim (Especially with Machine Guns).

Depending on where you get shot you will either be instantly dead or you will be able to bandage yourself and continue the fight. If you get hit in some places you just bleed out without the ability to bandage yourself.

You only spawn with 2 bandages so don't get shot too much or you might just bleed out.

There is a lot more I could talk about but I would be here for a while.

Here is the game's trailer (The game has changed a bit since then but not by much. The trailer shows some gameplay on different maps with different roles/weaons.



If you decide to pick up the game I recommend you watchGen Sir Anthony C H Melchetton youtube as he has a lot of good videos on Red Orchestra including beginner guides such as this
