Strap your helmets on tight! This update is going to blow your mind! We have put our heads together to make Darkest Hour even more a thinking man's shooter!
Darkest Hour has always been a thinking-man's-shooter, but after this update, players will grow their cranium to unlimited proportions. Making headway in Darkest Hour will require players to be more headstrong.
However, let's not get ahead of ourselves, here is the change log!
Players will get smarter more quickly by achieving kills
New players will have an easier time killing veteran players on killing sprees
Players will now be able to rename their squad to 20 characters long, instead of 16
Do not let the update get to your head. As always, see you on the battlefield!
Based on the award winning Red Orchestra: Ostfront, Darkest Hour: Europe ‘44-’45 is a free, online multiplayer, total-conversion mod that raises the bar for intensity, realism and emphasis on teamwork to crush your enemies and achieve victory.
