RO Darkest Hour Mod
« on: October 20, 2008, 05:06:34 PM »
was wondering if anybody has played this.  Not real keen on the original RO but this new mod looks pretty awesome.  Lots of new weapons and terrain focusing on the D-Day landing.  Think i'm going to try it out.  Maybe some of us could meet up and wreak some gv chaos.

I got it and I love it.  It's got me back into playing RO nightly after AH.  The maps were very well made.  There's even a few where you parachute in.  I give it 8 out of 10.

Wow, didn't even know about this! At first I thought it must be another name for the recently-released Mare Nostrum RO mod.

RO is the best game I've played for (sort of) realistic infantry combat.

I've been playing RO since the very first beta many years ago. I still play it today. I really hope they are working on RO2 with the Unreal 3 engine license they won in the past.

The Mare Nostrum is a different mod based on the deserts of North Africa. It has new British and Italian troops and weapons. Both Mare Nostrum and Darkest Hour are excellent mods. If you don't have RO, you can buy it off of Steam for $20. Great buy for a realistic WWII FPS.

so i've been playing the darkest hour mod now for a little bit and all i can say is wow.  this game is awesome.  I would tell anyone that has RO already that they should get it.  I like that it is hard and not just some run around with a machine gun and spray and pray.  It seems like you have to use tactics to capture and hold positions.  I hope that someday ah is able to incorporate some kind of ground action like this.  I would say this is my second favorite game next to ah.

The tank combat is also very enjoyable in RO and the Darkest Hour mod.
