Four years.

It has been nearly four years since Darkest Hour has recieved an official update. Today, that changes.

Darklight Games is extremely proud to finally announce the release of Darkest Hour 6.0!

I would like to personally thank a couple of team members by who made this update possible.

Andrew Lett, our level designer, for his tireless efforts and enthusiasm, even when tasked with the monumental amount of work required to update and modernize over 30 levels by hand!

Matt Hands, of the programming team, for the staggering amount of bug fixes and enhancements made to the vehicle code, and of course for diligently (and exhaustively) documenting every commit!

Other special mentions include Peter Klinger, Piotr Lukasik, Torben Hensgens and Ian Campbell. Of course, we also thank our faithful testing team whose efforts have helped make this the most stable and bug free version of Darkest Hour since it's inception.

This is not our last hurrah. Darklight Games will continue to update and modernize the game on a significantly more regular basis. We will provide more information on this in the coming weeks, but for now, we can't wait to play with all of you!

Those interested can find the change log here.

Long live Darkest Hour!

Sincerely,
Colin Basnett
Darklight Games

Posting for beta access here won't achieve anything. You want the news post.

What makes a true "Beta tester"? Is it someone to look for bugs? Definitely. Is it someone who will enjoy the game? Maybe. Most importantly, however, it is someone who will be able to determine errors, bugs, flaws, perform with an unbiased attitude, and I emphasize this in particular, the ability to view things from a scope beyond one's own opinion. A tester has to know what Gamers want, and I believe I can and will satisfy the call for other players. That, and a bit of skill at First Person Shooters never hurt.

I will make an able and extremley excited Beta Tester for RO:O. Besides wanting to play the game so badly, I will make sure to check for bugs and any historical inaccuracies which may take away from the otherwise spectacular atmosphere of RO:O. I have played many,many FPS's over the years and I know the difference from a great game...and a REVOLUTIONARY one. Red Orcheastra: Ost Front is a revolutionary game, and I will make sure to the best of my abilities that it is flawless when it is finally released to the public. Please consider me, you will not regret it.
