Home ? Headline, News 31 August 2011 No Comment

So, you?ve pre-ordered the Deluxe Edition of Tripwire?s Red Orchestra 2 and were wondering when the beta would begin, eh? Well, it?s kicked off today, meaning that players will finally get their first look at the game. The beta contains three maps, running three different gametypes, so there should be a rather broad spectrum of gameplay to get you keyboard and mouse working overtime.

A brief ?heads up?: If you want to pre-order, and want to get in on the beta be sure to buy from Steam, and fet the Deluxe Edition ? I?ve seen a few people about who were a bit miffed after purchasing their pre-orders from elsewhere.

Here?s the full press release, which has a few more details ? as well as some recommendations for server providers, should you wish to rent one for you and your buddies:
