Rising Storm 2:Vietnam Release Cover

Rising Storm 2

Platform(s): PC

Publisher:Tripwire Interactive

Cost: $24.99 Basic Edition, $29.99 Deluxe Edition

Release May 30, 2017

Red Orchestra and its two separate expansions, Rising Storm and Rising Storm 2, are some of the best first person shooters around.The recently released Rising Storm 2 takes place during the Vietnam War and is the most accurate representation we have had yet. Other major “mainstream” franchises such as “Call of Duty” and “Battlefield” have attempted to encapsulate the Vietnam War, but never stayed long in their respective titles. The gameplay is difficult yet rewarding. The significant lack of a heads up display and crosshair immerse you into the battlefield. Recoil is abundant and you can be picked off with one shot. One unique feature of this series is the role to be a Commander. The Commander class has the ability to call in mortars and airstrikes (depending on the faction) or speed up spawn times. The setting also provides a variety of vehicles for the United States Armed Forces. Hueys and Attack Helicopters patrol the skies, providing mobile reinforcements and powerful missiles respectively. To counter the powerful American fire power, the Vietnamese are granted squad tunnels to spawn closer to the control points. Overall, this game is a brutal yet rewarding experience that will keep you playing for hours.

The Beta for the Console Edition currently just ended with the PC beta just around the corner. First impressions have been mixed, with the gameplay considered solid but some design choices are getting backlash from the community. Weapons range from the M3 Grease Gun, to the Mauser Kar98k. Not only that, the game presents a new generation to World War II. Though maybe not the most accurate experience, it is still a lot of fun.
