Red Orchestra Server Update Released

A server update for Red Orchestra has been released which addresses some server issues which have arisen since the last update. We highly recommend all server admins update their servers.

There is NO update to the RO client, so there is no action to take unless you run your own server!

RED ORCHESTRA MODS ON STEAM NOW


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, Mare Nostrum, 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.

Server admins will need to update using HLDS in the normal fashion.
