The other is the knee mortar, which acts as a very short range artillery piece. This alone can clear out a heavily concentrated group of Marines hiding in the brush or in the ruins of a building. Finally, one of the biggest advantages the Japanese side has over the Americans is the Banzai charge. If coordinated and done right, the Banzai charge has the Japanese troops initiate a screaming attack that causes the Americans to become suppressed and ineffective in defending or attacking.
Online Play Just like the Red Orchestra 2 predecessor, Rising Storm allows for online play up to 64 players to a server where players assume the roles of riflemen or provide support as snipers and machine gunners; there are also a fixed number of squad leaders and commanders.
This setup, just like RO2 , provides for coordinated efforts to attack and defend positions. The Iwo Jima map can give the American squad leaders and commander the satisfaction of calling in a naval artillery bombardment to rain down on stiff Japanese defenses, but it can also give the Japanese players a quick laugh if these shells suddenly rain down on the uncoordinated Americans.
In-game voice chat provides for team coordination, which is especially helpful as the offensive and defensive lines shift back and forth. Rising Storm continues to use the RO2 weapons experience for gamers, which unlocks ranks and achievements. Players will also find that suppression fire still plays a crucial role in RO2 combat, particularly from machinegun fire, artillery, and the feared Banzai charge.
Debriefing This is by far one of the better quick-action, first person shooters of the Pacific Theater. Unfortunately, players can quickly go through all 6 maps, on both sides of the fight, and play can become a bit repetitive; however, Steam workshop allows for custom mod support and the developers have said that new map content is on the way. Overall, Rising Storm is a breath of fresh air; we rarely see the Pacific Theater represented in first person shooters.
Its focus on authenticity of weapons and combat dynamics like the Banzai charge immerse the player in this war. Players will find attention to details throughout the battlefields—such as tripping a wire of pots and pans on Guadalcanal—that spice up the atmosphere of combat. This is a great addition to the Red Orchestra 2 series that should satisfy players looking for more variety in World War II gaming experiences.
This is refreshingly different from run of the mill action like Call of Duty. Rising Storm brings no shame on Red Orchestra 2. Quite the opposite, it strengthens its position as a multiplayer shooter game.
The game's atmosphere, graphics, Japanese banzai attacks, and American weaponry along with balanced maps will get you. You will not find a better adapted battlefield of the Pacific War.
I expected something close to Battlefield but Rising Storm is far more demanding. Try it — you might enjoy it too. User Reviews.

This game is absolutely amazing, nothing to do with other FPS out there. An unique experience, I can just say: buy this game and play on the battlefield now. Rising Storm is the best experience you can have online as FPS so far. Great value package with the first Red Orchestra 2 gift as bonus, Rising Storm is the best experience you can have online as FPS so far.

Unfortunately the first RO2 was released with some minor problem, now Rising Storm is a full relaunch product. An astonishing indie game that doesn't have nothing less than triple A like Battlefield or Call Of duty. Awesome price also, you can buy for a ridicolous price on steam. Essentially a more polished version of RO2, with a lot more opportunities for combat and less wasted space. This is a terrific expansion to Essentially a more polished version of RO2, with a lot more opportunities for combat and less wasted space.
This is a terrific expansion to the game and the maps are stunning, especially Iwo Jima. Definitely worth the price. Ok for starters this is a game that only fits a certain kind of player If that is you then you will like it.

When i say tactical i do not mean arma 2 tactical but close Adjustable sights bullet drop, cover etc But is also disabled by choice in some servers I say if you like RO2 then you should like this.
The M3A1 Grease Gun is a bulky metal tube that is pinpoint accurate on close-range single shots, but nearly rams into your nose with each discharge, obscuring your peripheral vision and giving you a wider view through the rear sight.
My favored LMGs are best tapped gently, unless you want to shoot at birds. AKs are powerful, unwieldy bastards that require me to flick my mouse downward harder than I usually expect to keep them on target—not my favorite weapon, but a fun challenge anyhow. I want the sides to play differently, but in this case, one is simply more enjoyable than the other.
As in previous Red Orchestra series games, the teams are asymmetrical, pitting armies with different equipment and different tactics against each other. The rivalry between the AK and M16 is probably the most famous in history, and they absolutely fire differently in Rising Storm 2. But this distinction means less than the distinction between bolt-action and semi-auto rifles we saw in Rising Storm.
To play up the asymmetry further, Rising Storm 2 somewhat unsuccessfully applies it to how players spawn. American forces can spawn on their squad leaders, and in Supremacy mode—the one I mentioned is like Battlefield—can also spawn in helicopters which must be landed safely by player pilots to ferry troops around the map. It is more fun to spawn on my squad leader than it is to pop out of a tunnel at some secluded corner of the map, and it adds the subgoal of protecting my leader at all costs.
Americans also get another goal: find and destroy squad tunnels, or find them and take up a defensive position near them to suppress them. While in theory tunnels allow the People's Army to appear anywhere on the map in numbers, they often become obsolete.
And even with all the ways to enter the battle, and all the tunnels to crouch-walk through, Supremacy can be a slog for either side. Or I might participate in the capture of a point, set up my tripod to defend, and a minute later find that no one is coming to take it from me.
Supremacy is won by earning points from held bases, which must be connected to your home base by other occupied territories. Rather than pushing up a football field and scoring the winning touchdown with seconds to go, as in Territories, I often find myself capturing mostly-empty points, or chasing off single intruders, or making futile attempt after futile attempt to rush up a contested hill with my squad.
I've had fun rounds of Supremacy, but I avoid it in favor of Territories. Fortunately, Tripwire and Antimatter are among the few left making proper PC multiplayer games. You join matches through a server browser, not a matchmaking system. Servers have their own cultures, sometimes with custom game rules and Discord invites in their welcome text.
There are already player-made maps circulating in a few servers, and they auto-download when you join. If you want a Territories-only server, you can find it.
