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!

Hello!

This game is awesome. 10 of 10 for sure.

But I have one small question - how to save single player game ?

When I play I often see messages "Game saved" but when I quit game & start it again - there in no saves. Why ?

I think the last saved game appears immediately when you start the game. Hit escape in the menu and you're straight back in the last saved action. I have not tested this, but I believe that it is so ... maybe ..

Not sure, but everytime i enter the game from the menu i'm back on that damn brigde that i'm unable to cross :-)

When you launch RWR, it just starts a default quick battle behind the menu; this match isn't actually loadable in the recent games.

To get a proper match going on that actually gets saved and can later be found in recent games, go through the start new game menu.

Have you tried the standalone demo? You'd launch it with launch_game -script.

What distro are you guys using?
Did you try the ldconfig command to update the library cache?

OpenSuse + wxWidgets is clearly becoming a problem now.

There's a hacky workaround, you'd use this Modulaatio.com edit it manually according to your needs, and with demo, place it in rwr folder in a subfolder called "data", or with the latest game, place it in your home folder in a subfolder called ".running_with_rifles".
