How many people will be picking this game up?
 

Looks good so far, and I've only heard good things about the original.. as of right now its a most likely pick up for me

I've from a few friends that the original was horrible.

PREORDERED AND READY TO GO!!!

I got the first one free so I can get it for the 20% discount...but I just don't know.  I really never played the first one very much. 

I also pre-ordered it... see you guys in game.

well i got 2 free hat for TF2 with the game. i only bought the 35 dollar version.
i so cant freaking wait for this game. ive been looking forward to this for some time. 

I pre ordered as well. I have really been looking forward to this for a while. I honestly cant stand most shooters but this really sounds good with the bullet physics and bullet penetration modeled.
  I can't wait to help my fellow comrades fight off the fascists invading our Motherland.

Gonna preorder

I wonder when we'll be able to play the beta, hopefully at least 2 weeks before release

About time there's some good WW2 action again, the amount of modern warfare that has been coming out is worse than the amount of WW2 games that were coming out years ago. How people can want to play modern warfare (that aren't even real wars just fantasy crap with americans instead of Orks) and not kill a bunch of Russians is beyond me.

..............and not kill a bunch of Russians is beyond me. 

 
I'm over the villain always being a Russian in the modern games as well.

and another...
Rising Storm is a total conversion modification for the eagerly awaited WWII First-person Shooter, Heroes of Stalingrad: Red Orchestra; based on the Pacific campaign of 1941-45. It is unique in that it is a mod in which there is financial compensation for the development team from the backing studio.

Rising Storm covers the famous island-hopping campaigns in the Pacific from 1942 to 1945 as the US Army and Marine Corps fight it out with the Imperial Japanese army and Special Naval Landing Forces. Featuring some of the most brutal fighting in the Pacific theater, players are able to experience beach assaults, jungle fighting, close quarters cave fighting and more across Guadalcanal, Iwo Jima and many other historic locations. The player is able to take the part of either side – American or Japanese –playing through the Campaign Mode alone or with friends, or battling it out online in full player versus player multi-player.
Rising Storm is being created in a first-of-its-kind collaboration between a mod team and a professional game development studio. The Rising Storm team is made up of the best developers from the Red Orchestra modding community and the mod community at large.
