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. 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).

I hate this fucking game, I hate being shot at by people I can't fucking see because every map fucking sucks.
10/10, unbelievably realistic.

Amazing game, probably one of the best vietnam era games out there. Too bad the servers are pretty much dead now.

A perfect midpoint between CS2 and Squad. Actually playable shooter where guns work like they should.

RS2V is absolutely the most perfect tactical FPS shooter, it isn't too arcade but also isn't too hardcore or realistic. It has the perfect balance of accessible realism by incorporating fast-paced and engaging gameplay with full of actions, unlike Hell Let Loose where 80% of gameplay is just walking. Also if you're a war history enthusiast especially for Vietnam War, this game is a must-play.
Pros:
-They removed the weapons levelling up features from RO2/RS1, which is good because it's not fair for a new players where they will get killed by some overpowered guns.
-Fun weapons and explosive to use, such as flamethrowers, punji & tripwire trap, C4, and many more.
-More factions that are rarely gets the representation in most of Vietnam War games/movies. Such as ARVN, Australian Army, and PAVN.
-Customisations that are fit to the timelines of war.
-Variants of great custom maps.
Cons:
-Several issues that hasn't been fixed yet. Like the broken VOIP and other players can't hear your voice, "Push-up" bug where you keeps Standing and proning repeatedly by itself, and invisible fire from molotov or napalm.
-A notorious MEGA server which contains virus/malware is still in the game, TWI is trying so hard to removing them but it keeps returning.
-Terrible voice acting: Some of North Vietnamese soldiers speaks slowly like a robot, the Australian voice are overexaggerated and stereotypical, failed to mimicking the old accent and becomes funny, white American character was voiced by a middle-aged man which doesn't fit for some 20 years old conscript. It may sounds nitpicking but it actually ruined the immersion and atmosphere. Glad they hired some better voice actors for ARVN soldiers which sounds louder and more intimidating.
Even thought there are several issues, it's still a great game. So sad that TWI abandoned this game, it would be the most perfect Vietnam War game if they were still doing the update like add a Republic of Korea faction, expand the location to Laos and Cambodia so there will be Pathet Lao, RLA, FARK, and Khmer Rouge, and more weapons (MG-34, PPS-43, MAS-36, M72 LAW, or RPG-2).

The most underrated multiplayer shooter. A perfect mix between hardcore and arcade shooting. No one has done it better than them 7 years later.

i've always felt like the RO/RS series hits the right spot between Insurgency and Squad.
It doesn't feel like a sweatfest like insurgency, but also isn't too dependant on comms to be a Squad clone, it perfectly sits between these two games and I always loved how accessible it is despite being part of a more niche genre.
My sister, who only plays L4D ,Phasmophobia and strongly dislikes PVP war games, actually really liked this one.
I know it sounds lame but the fact a casual player like her and a milsim nerd like me can both play and enjoy this game speaks for itself.

This game is extremely difficult to play, I've played 3.1 hours and in a match I killed 7 people in 30 mins... the mvp killed like 45 or smth crazy!
I didn't even notice when I got shot, a lot of pros playing this game or hackers idk, too many HS and the maps are huge!
I'll definitely play more.
Rising Storm 2: Vietnam 9/10
