    Nope not yet I usually wait for steam sales before I jump into buying games. Save so much money lol, but Red Orchestra 2 does look pretty good.

    I have a R1 and I ran through half the training in the morning but havent got much time to tune or test the game fully. However, for the duration that I've played, it ran pretty good while on high settings on default running at 1280x720. I'll do some testing BUT I believe this game is definitely playable. However, I think it's something that only the multiplayer and intense battles can help decide!

    yeah for me its playable but not that well 20-30fps. and you have to set the graphics to normal (ugly) to play it right. I'd wait till they optimize the levels first. (the devs said the game is really cpu intensive atm) they said they have to change the way the game renders the levels on multiplayer so I am going to wait till then till I try playing again.
