Red Orchestra MODs will be the first third party game MODs to be made available through Steam. And just to celebrate, Tripwire is reducing the price 75% to $4.99 until Monday 20th October.
Roswell, GA, October 17th, 2008 - Tripwire Interactive is pleased to announce that select MODs created for Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 are now available free of charge directly through Steam to all owners of the popular World War II themed online action title.
The first MOD released, <a href="http://store.steampowered.com/app/1230/">Mare Nostrum</a>, allows players to experience some of the fiercest battles of WWII across North Africa and Italy. The MOD adds three new nationalities to the game including the British, Australians and Italians as well as adding the German Afrika Korps. Featuring 8 new maps, 8 new weapons and 10 vehicles the game play is varied from gritty street to street fighting in urban surroundings to all out tank warfare in the open desert.
To celebrate all this - and to further encourage everyone to try the game and the mods - Tripwire is dropping the price of Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 for the weekend to just $4.99. The mods will appear in your Steam Games list and will now be automatically updated just like any other game released through Steam.
Red Orchestra is available via Steam and at retail outlets worldwide. For more information about Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 and Steam, please visit www.steamgames.com.
Today I would like to show off the Baikal shotgun, which you saw in render form during my last communication in action.
Analog Addiction writes: "Games like Dark Souls are truly different from many mainstream games, only because they evoke a sense which tells you that you may never be able to beat it. Dark Souls takes this approach, and challenges you head on. However, it is a very tight, and very risky rope.
Unless you are stubborn, you may just end up not even making it halfway through. If you do though, this is where those stubborn gamers benefit: you will try and try ’till you finally beat it. This is what makes the game: after trying for so long to just clear a corridor that has held you back for over two hours, even though it may not be significant in terms of story or boss killing, you will feel a sense of accomplishment at nearly every turn."
The Humble Bundle today announced another deal, this time for games published by Tripwire Entertainment.
