So is there still a free RO conversion for UT2004? Or is Ostfront an improved version?

 

[NeoV]

This is an all-new standalone game, using Unreal engine 2.5.

The free UT 2004 add-on still exists.

it looks cool, but if its going to be lame like DoD, then forget it.

"March" is the release, nothing more specific than that.
There will be a demo, although exactly when it unknown, probably around release, maybe a little afterwards.
Both the official forums and IRC channel often have development team members in if you have questions, so you can get official answers (those above ARE the official answers which have been repeated many times by the devs).

should be fun playing online, if it works well.

Will be relaesed tomorrow March 14th. Appears to be a nice upgrade from the UTMOD version. I'm pre-loaded and ready to go

 

[pontifex]

i want a frickin demo now.

looks cool, but so did BF2 and we all know how sh!tty that turned out

I've been playing the beta and I think it's great. I can't wait to get the full release version. I'm pre-loaded and pre-ordered.

The devs have said a demo is going to be released, but they weren't sure if it would be shortly before or shortly after the release date. It looking like it's going to be after.

 

[Dkcode]

less than 4 hours to go

The beta was fantastic, cant wait to play the rest of the 10 maps.

 

[pontifex]

for those that played the demo, isit like BF2 at all? anything like CoD2?
are there crosshairs at all or is it where you basically have to use iron sights to hit anything? do the weapons have massive recoil like in DOD:S?

i'm trying to think of things to ask to determine if i should buy it or not. i probably should wait for the demo but i'm getting impatient with no games to play.

 

[Dkcode]

Its in a league of its own. Its more on the simulation shelf but it keeps in all the fun. You have to use the iron sights to aim, no corsshairs, realistic recoil ect. You can also rest your gun on the surface of something to reduce sway and recoil (a window ledge, corner of a burnt out truck, sandbags) it does this auto so you dont have to bind a button to it. This encourages the use of cover which you need to use if you want to progress. The gamemode is to capture all the points on the map. The map varies for example one map may have the soviets attacking and the germans having to defend all the points or both teams must capture all the points on the map. The maps are bigger than DoD:S and some will include tanks, which are very good and fun to use while still keeping the realism aspect there (shells take 10 - 30 seconds depending on the tank to reload, you need a driver and a commanded/gunner to be sucsessful)

If you played the mod (which in my opinion was awesome) you will love the retail version, it is a different game with the core gameplay the same. Basically think of it as rainbow six in ww2 with fluid movement and without all the planning.
