Talk:Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41–45

message: Was it actually the full version that was made available? Valve's announcement made it seem like there was a single-player aspect of the game that was not being included in the game (if there is I wouldn't know about it, as I am one of the trial participants, not an owner of the full game). --UNHchabo 03:56, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

message: This article is mostly made up of lists. The "Features"- section should be replaced with a "Gameplay"- section with information about how the game is played. Just look at other game articles. This one is not to good right now... 217.211.211.182 12:01, 11 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Done, to some extent. I replaced the Features-section with a "Gameplay"-section. Most of the information is from the article Red Orchestra: Combined Arms. I see no reason not to use it as the retail game and the original mod are pretty much 1:1. I know this isn't a bullseye on first try but I hope this atleast gives some direction for the future.

message: How can you say "tanks with realistic armor properties, including penetration and deflection, in relation to range and projectile trajectory angle"? Did you ever look at the code?
There are no seperate values for the hull and the tower, so it does not matter what your tower is looking at, but only what your hull is "looking" at. There are only three values that define armor in this game: FrontArmorFactor, SideArmorFactor and RearArmorFactor.
Angling gives a bonus of 300% IIRC. The shells travel at half of the realistic speed (due to an engine limitation, that  caused detection problems etc.). Calling that realistic is imho a farce.
So my change was no opinion post.
You could ever say it is not really realistic - what I did - or say it is but list the exceptions or you could say it is more realistic than XY but imo other than that is just misinformation and should not happen here on wikipedia. --Mat69 10:44, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Shouldn't the map links go to the battle they represent instead of the region, when applicable? The Stalingrad map link goes to the Stalingrad page instead of the Battle of Stalingrad one, for example.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.108.184.118 (talk) 20:57, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

message: The game's forerunner, Red Orchestra: Combined Arms, has little in the way of independent coverage. It might be better to incoporate it into a "history" section here? Marasmusine (talk) 17:40, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Agree. We can merge Killing Floor (video game) with Killing Floor (2009 video game) too.Zaqq (talk) 17:50, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I know this is a bit old now, but if anyone wants to get around to merging Combined Arms and this article, I'm in agreement as well; half of the Combined Arms article is talking about the retail version anyway, so it's pretty much redundant.

thread_title:  Hardware requirements 

message: There are passages on supposed realism that are copied basically verbatim in the section on Gameplay and the one on Red Orchestra: Combined Arms. Totally aside from that klunky writing, the "emphasis on realism" can be debated, as it's solely a realism of FPS mechanics, not really a realistic depiction of Eastern Front war, where it's really a nauseating whitewash ignoring the frequency and depravity of atrocities on both sides. --91.67.238.3 (talk) 09:45, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
