* ExcusePlot: Don't buy this game for it's singleplayer campaign unless you want to be very underwhelmed. Although that's still a step up from the first game: your only non-multiplayer option was practice mode, which was exactly the same as multiplayer except with bots instead of human players, and that was assuming you only wanted to play the base game and not either of its free mod/expansions.

Granted, the singleplayer campaign in ''Red Orchestra'' is still largely a multiplayer match with bots, but there is something of a story and mission progress attached to it.

* RareGuns: Mostly averted or used in proper historical context, but there are a few exceptions.
** The [=MKB 42(H)=], an early prototype of the [=StG44=] assault rifle. While it is not impossible for a few to have been issued in Stalingrad in field trials, there is currently no evidence that any were.
** There's also the [=MP 40/I=], a MP-40 with two side-by-side magazine holders and can manually switch between the two, doubling the gun's capacity. This experimental variant proved unreliable and unpopular.

''Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad'' is the sequel to the 2006 video game ''VideoGame/RedOrchestra''. It was released in September 2011. Like it's predecessor, it is a tactical FirstPersonShooter set during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII's Eastern Front. Unlike it's predecessor, it focuses almost exclusively on the Battle of Stalingrad, as well as a number of other skirmishes around the same time period. New features include both a single player and multiplayer campaign for both the Germans and the Soviets,[[TakeCover cover system]], blind-firing around corners and walls, and an EquipmentUpgrade system for weapons.
