Tripwire Interactive are happy to announce the results of Breakout, the final phase of the Counterattack Mapping Contest for Red Orchestra 2. With over $35,000 in total prizes, the competition has been fierce. The first phase showed some serious skills from the mapping community - this final phase has stepped it up even further.
Again, great fun to judge - and it looks like people have had great fun playing the maps. Don't forget that the contest versions of the maps are available on Steam Workshop - and we aim to bring many of them into the fold as official RO2 maps in the future.
Firstly, for the Grand Prize, winning a further $5,000 and a unique, RO2-etched Origin Laptop (take a look at http://www.originpc.com/ to see just how special these things are), is Danh Truong's Winterwald!
Next, the winners in the "Best Original Level" category are:
1. Winterwald by Danh Truong, winning $5,000The other category was for "Best Remake". Once again, it was great to see some old classics being remodeled and reimagined. The winners are:
2. Bridges of Druzhina by Kieran Tobin, winning $2,500
3. Coldsteel by Johan van Pelt - wins $1,000
1. Gumrak Station by Maik Doktor, winning $5,000
2. Stalingrad Kessel by Florian Montaut, winning $2,500
3. We actually had a tie for third place, so we doubled up the prize:
Arad 2 by John Cree, winning $1,000 AND
Rakowice by Johan van Pelt, winning $1,000!
That is $10,000 and an amazing laptop for the Grand Prize winner, with a total of $36,000 in cash given away!
