At least, if there's any consolation on this is that Tripwire not only didn't pay a single cent for the license (They won it on the Make Something Unreal contest) they also got full permissions to tweak and mess the engine to their liking and they've been making a lot of improvements on their custom UE. If there's something comforting in this is that Epic won't see a cent from RO and RO2 sales, and anything TW develops.

Tripwire won 1 license.
Red Orchestra was 1 game.
Red Orchestra 2 is a second game.
A second game requires a second license.


Part of your purchase of RO2 will go into Epic's pocket. This will fund further UE3 development and make the engine better for RO3.
