Description

Rising Storm 2: Vietnam is the next in the series that has twice been PC Gamer’s ‘Multiplayer Game of the Year’, bringing the franchise into the era of automatic rifles, man-portable grenade launchers and more modern weapons systems. Still with the authentic look and feel and realistic weapon handling that the series is known for.



Continuing the Tripwire tradition of providing strong support for games post-launch, Vietnam has already been updated multiple times, providing the player with:
  • 64-player battles
  • 6 different armies to play, each with their own weapons and abilities:
  • United States Army and Marine Corps
  • North Vietnamese Army (PAVN) and National Liberation Front (Viet Cong)
  • Australian Army
  • Army of the Republic of Vietnam (ARVN)
  • Over 50 weapons, covering everything from rifles and pistols to flamethrowers and rocket launchers
  • 4 flyable helicopters - Huey, Cobra, Loach and Bushranger
  • Asymmetric warfare - VC traps and tunnels vs. US napalm and choppers
  • More than 20 maps
  • 3 distinct game-modes
  • Proximity VOIP
  • And hundreds of character customization options.



Rising Storm 2: Vietnam offers intense action for up to 64 players in battles between the forces of South Vietnam (the US and their Allies) and those of the North - the regular, main-force units of North Vietnamese Army, plus the guerilla fighters of the National Liberation Front (or Viet Cong).

SOUTHERN FORCES - US, Australian and ARVN




The Southern forces have firepower and mobility on their side, with each army having its own unique supporting arms:
  • US Army/Marine Corps - airburst artillery, the Spooky gunship and napalm strikes
  • Australian Army - Pair of Canberra bombers and heavy artillery
  • ARVN - medium mortar barrage and napalm strikes from older A-1 Skyraiders


For mobility, they have access to full helicopter support:
  • UH-1 “Huey”: provides rapid transport for a squad across the map
  • OH-6 “Loach”: acts as both a spotter and airborne command post, as well as a fast gunship, with its miniguns
  • AH-1G “Cobra”: heavily-armed gunship with massive firepower for a pilot and weapons officer
  • Australian “Bushranger”: a Huey, with dual M60 machine guns, minigun and rockets

Tactically, the Southern squad leaders become important - so long as the squad leader is alive and in a smart location, the rest of his squad can spawn in on his location. So keep your squad leaders alive at critical moments!

As for weapons, the Southern forces had a wide range of the best weaponry of Western nations, ranging from older, WWII-era leftovers, through to the latest technology of the time:
  • M1 Garand, M2 Carbine, M3 “grease gun”, BAR and M1919 .30-cal LMG
  • M14 Battle Rifle, M40 and XM21 sniper rifles
  • M60 LMG and M16 automatic rifle
  • For heavier support - the M79 grenade launcher and M9A1-7 flamethrower
  • Explosives - M61 frag grenade, M8 smoke, C4 explosives and M18 Claymore

NORTHERN FORCES - NVA and VC




The Northern forces offer a broader mix, with the People’s Army of Vietnam (PAVN - or NVA) as the regular, disciplined and better-equipped main fighting force, in comparison to the National Liberation Front (NLF) guerrilla fighters, equipped with whatever weaponry was passed down the chain to them from Russia and China - known as the Viet Cong. For supporting weapons each has:
  • PAVN/NVA - heavy artillery, surface-to-air missile defenses and rapid reinforcement from the Ho Chi Minh trail
  • NLF/VC - a mix of ordnances (mortars, rockets, white phosphorous) used in a heavy barrage


To compete with the Southern forces’ mobility, the Northern forces have their own mobility - and stealth:
  • NVA and VC squad leaders can place spawn tunnels widely across the maps, allowing themselves and their squads to spawn much closer to the action - or even behind the lines
  • Given their “home field advantage”, any NVA or VC crouching or prone in cover can’t be spotted by Southern helicopters or aircraft
  • SA-2 Missiles - the quick way to counter Southern air assets is by calling on surface-to-air missiles, if the commander can time it right
  • “Ho Chi Minh Trail” ability - the NVA/VC commander can activate this ability to accelerate his team’s spawning rate, when times get desperate
  • “Ambush Spawn” ability - the NVA/VC commander can also cause anyone on his team who is waiting, to spawn on his location for potentially devastating ambushes.

The weaponry for the Northern forces is wide-ranging - the PAVN well-equipped with modern weapons delivered from Russia and China, while the VC have to work with a wide variety of weapons:
  • AK-47 and Type 56 Assault rifles
  • Russian SKS-45 and US M1 Carbines and Mosin Nagant 91/30 rifle
  • MN 91/30 and SVD sniper rifles
  • PPSh-41 and French MAT-49 SMGs
  • IZh-58 double-barrelled shotgun
  • DP-28 and RPD LMGs
  • RPG-7 rocket launcher
  • MD-82 toe-popper mines, Tripwires and Punji traps

Still has a strong player base in 2024, worth the money. But it is a hardcore fps, one hit die.

Great shooter with realistic tactical elements. I like the barebones feel of the game. Not like cod for example. Just taking objectives and winning campaings.

This game is very fun but there is a bit of a learning curve for new members. Rather then that, I highly recommend this to any avid gamer to have in their library. The game features rather large battles with 32 v 32.

  • Map Design
  • Fatal Bullets
  • Large Userbase

Excellent game, very realistic, so many opprotunities. You can be a helicopter p[ilot and fly the legendary huey, the attack one, or the littlebird, and the grand helicopter: the cobra. You can also be vietcong and be tricky with traps, or take a rocket propelled grenade launcher and shoot down helicopters.10/10

Great game for anyone who loves realism and tactical gameplay in First Person Shooters. The game is better in my opinion than its previous titles in the series as it moves into the Vietnam conflict. If you are a fan of the Vietnam war and first person shooters I definitely recommend this game.
  • Good graphics

Awesome entry in Tripwire's red orchestra/rising storm series. The community is great, the gameplay is smooth and acomplishes the fel of realism and the guns feel authentic. The only thing I wish this game had is destructible enviroment, would be awesome to see trees and plants burned to a crisp after a naplam strike or cover destroyed after an artilery barage. If you like realistic shooters I would deffinetely recommend buying this game.

This game is very fun to play with friends. by sticking together and communicate with other squads you will have a blast of a time. Graphics aren't that high so everyone can enjoy the game. It laks a bit of content though (only 2 modes). worth every cent you spend on it.
  • graphics are duable

It is not possible to make a difference between the enemy and the ally in the battle. You never know who killed you and how. A very difficult game. If they don't fix that, there is no fun at all! You have constantly to crouch and to be under some pressure! The impression is that you are in a real war!! Currently - wasted money!
  • Not demanding graphics
  • Sound
  • Gameplay - no fun at all!
  • Difficulty
  • Can't choose weapon!!!
  • Impossible to spot enemy
  • I'm very disappointed, everyone is complaining about the same things

A very good game to continue the Rising Storm saga. You'll find the same mechanics of Red Orchestra, but with some new gameplay possibilities. Carefull, this game is made to be "realistic", do not buy it if you're searching a FPS arcade game.
  • Good optimization
  • very good gameplay

Very good game for anyone who loves realistic FPS. I really recommend it even thought there's still some bugs here & there. The different roles plus the commander, the asymmetric armies squad based, in town or in the jungle, helicopter, bombardments... This is just freaking awesome!
  • Realism
  • Asymmetric armies
  • Vietnam!
  • A few bugs that can be annoying from time to time

Nice and fun game for few bucks, many player on it, it more like an arcade game than a realistic game for me. You can do pretty good action tho. the fact that you can dig the ground is interesting ^^ .
  • Very fun
  • Many players
  • Not enough maps
  • Graphics are not so good

A great successor to Red Orchestra 2, although it still lacks content but I am sure we will see a lot for free in the future!
If you want a great tactical game that's not so heavy as Arma, or you just want a good Vietnam war game to remember the good old Battlefield:Bad Company 2 Vietnam days take it now before it runs out of stock!
