Rising Storm 2: Vietnam

I'm hoping that now this version is easier to mod we will get some popular user created content. Sounds are definitely lacking. I was hoping they would have a VoIP system more like Squad but it's still the same as previous iterations and doesn't really help with the team play.

Also sick of playing this casual mode with friendly player icons, kill feeds etc. Bring on the realism mode on full release. I'm hoping that will cut down on the fact that everyone is sprinting at 100mph everywhere.

Open beta on now. 30th May is release date. Roll on those realism servers!

Agreed £17 for what you getting is a excellent shooter miles better than anything released triple A lately.

I think what puts people off it's not an easy game, you won't just pick this up and play.
You will need to put in a good amount of hours before you fully understand the maps and game modes and learn the core gameplay.

New players spawn in die, repeat repeat this game is trash, back to battlefield 1 lool

Yup pretty much! Had a guy on last night who joined a squad I was leading. His only contribution? "u can only hav 2 snipers? **** ******* game uninstalling this ****".

Bots are still in but aren't very clever. They don't work on all maps also.

Console commands:
Open VNTE-CuChi
Open VNTE-HueCity
addbots 64

They didn't use the latest Unreal engine as they had already started marking the game while UE4 was still in its infancy (and still is).

As with all Unreal Engine games it has this strange blur which you need to use ReShade to counter it.

What are the people who are slating it saying? It's a good solid game which only needs more maps to freshen things up (more maps are on the way).

Beta version of a game is when it's feature complete and the main focus is on performance and bug squishing so there was never going to be any new things added on release.

Since the release they've added some new map layouts for different game modes, new weapons and there is the ANZAC Corps dlc coming too.

Admittedly I've not played it for a long time. Each iteration seems to be going further and further away from what RO used to be and the lack of maps soon got old. I'll no doubt revisit when the ANZAC dlc hits.
