Pick up your rifle and join the Green or Grey army in their mission to send the enemy home in a box! RUNNING WITH RIFLES is an open world, top-down, tactical shooter for single player and multiplayer online, that puts you right in the middle of chaos in towns, trenches and forests turned into ruthless battlefields, controlling just one soldier in an army of several hundreds.
In a war where men die like flies and endless streams of reinforcements run to fill the void, it takes tactics and marksmanship to capture territories effectively. The open world nature of the game enables you to use a multitude of approaches to help the front line move – it's up to you to shape your role. Experience the complete arc starting as a private hardening into a high ranking officer with a squad under command, arming yourself with a variety of weapons and vehicles on your way to glory!

"...spawn point selection through map..."
Am I the only one who can't open the map by pressing "TAB" or any key for that matter? There is even no option to configure the key like in previous versions. I can't open a map even after I die, so how can I choose a spawn point?
Is there no map right now or am I missing something?
:D I really want this game... But i cant afford it :/
aww that's sad :(
Actually the price is more than fair in my opinion for what you get and especially for what you will get at the official release with full multiplayer support on top of that.
Some people buy AAA titles for 60USD, play through it in 4 hours and put is aside.
The joy of RWR should actually last quite longer, hopefully ;)
Drink 2 beers less and you can afford the game :)
I actually got some money and bought it :D its a great game that i recommend to everyone!
Will you be making an updated demo?
At some point yes, but the demo won't be updated each time there's an update in the full game.
Hi all, i install Ubuntu 12.10 x64. And downloaded RWR 0.77, unpacked and...
I run launch_game and rwr_game. Get out the window, I press start (and tried with the console, it immediately disappears.)
Absolutely nothing happens
What do I need to install?
When I run launch_game in the console, I'm getting plenty of text there, and if things are fine, another window opens for RWR.
If things are not ok, depending on the case the text tells something about it or it just ends at some point at the launch.
It sounds like you've got wxWidgets installed and working ok as I think you're referring to the config tool with "Get out the window, I press start". As that runs fine for you, you also have at least most of the components Ogre3D needs. If you run launch_config in console, are you getting any text output (a lot of it actually)?
The next thing would be OpenAL, you can install that with "apt-get install libopenal1:i386" in 64-bit Ubuntu. Ogre3D will need Cg support too, which you'd install with "apt-get install nvidia-cg-toolkit:i386".
Another thing I'd urge you to check is that do you have a directory called .running_with_rifles in your home directory now? The config tool should've created that when you pressed start or exit.
Haven't played in a while. The graphics look so much nicer now and much, much easier for me to see what is going on. Plus the other improvements you have made to the game in the past year.
Such an amazing game. I bought 2 copies to play LAN. I still feel like I underpaid for this game. 10/10
True!
