If it's anything like Red Orchestra it will be just as intense if not more so than BF3.

RO has always been more intense then the BF series on the single basis that weapons are much more deadly, knowing that a single shot is all it takes to kill changes the dynamics of play considerably, it means you can no longer run out in the open and you have to rely much more heavily on your teammates.

From the video you posted... can't see how you came to that conclusion.

I've seen plenty of gameplay so I can vouche for RO2, being a potentially amazing FPS title, but the TC started the topic off in a weak manner.

I'll be getting both even if they come out the same day since Red Orchestra 2 will most likely be cheap. Then I'll put down both when ArmA 3 comes 8)

[QUOTE="Birdy09"][QUOTE="cobrax55"]

lol what? Have you actually played either of these games? They fall on the complete opposite end of any spectrum you could possibly put them on.

That entire comparison is just laughable :lol:

cobrax55

And how have you come to that conclusion?

Because one is one of the most realistic shooters out there and the other is one of the most unrealistic shooters out there. There is litterally nothing in common beyond them both being ****d based and taking place in WW2.

Thats exactly what I said though. realism =I better, its a borefest in comparison to ET. and no. I can appreciate a realistic shooter, just not that bloody damn average niche cult followed mod.

the game is made for people who like realistic games, if your basis of comparison is ET, then its clearly not made for you anyway.

One is focusing on realism, other is on arcade gameplay. Not a valid comparison, aside from that they both use large amounts of players (on PC) and utilize vehicles.

Battlefield is definitely pushing toward the more realistic feel for this game. I feel they took notes from their top BF2 mod, Project Reality. I seen some things that definitely scream Project Reality but still keeping more of the game element.

Well, I can't say BF3 is super realistic when I can revive players like I was GOD.

No one said it was super realistic. It however isn't an arcade shooter like people want to think.

Agreed. The retail RO is a 6 year old game now? I think. It's still as intense to me as a game of Rush in BC2. BC2 has the advantage of loads of dust and stuff literally blowing up in your face to add to the feeling of intensity, but RO has a kind of raw energy behind it.

It's in between, it has elements of both.

I like this game a lot the way it looks and plays, the animations are a little clunky but im sure they will fix that by the time the game ships. Still ill get this and BF3 and play them both equally.

At least it has bots, something BF3 may lack though I'm sure it'll be in co-op if it's like BF2.

I was rather underwhelmed by the BF3 demo and trailers they showed.

In case people have already forgotten, a new Red Orchestra game, entitled "Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad" is launching in a few months. This game absolutely crushes BF3 in terms of gameplay mechanics. There is suppressive fire, fire while in cover, and so much more.

This game could seriously give BF3 a run for the money - and it requires less computer to run, too!

Battlefield 3 has suppressive fire too.

I can't wait for Red Orchestra 2 as well. Very glad it's remaining PC exclusive. I don't care if it's ported later just so long as PC development isn't hindered in any way by the consoles being in there. Granted, all games are made on a PC anyway, but you get my point. BF3 looks incredible as well to me. So I'm getting both on PC as it is. But RO2 looks incredible.
