whats the deal here? You are undercutting them?
i dont know. It seems odd that they split off and now a different studio is doing a vietnam game
I know this will come up a lot so I will just say definitively that Pop Smoke is not involved with this rising storm sequel; there is no IC:V content at work and to my knowledge we don't share any developers.
Separate projects.
:IS2:
Tripwire idk why you did this, im sure you were aware of popsmoke and their game, but thats kinda a dick move to clearly undercut these guys who had the same idea for a title and have been working on it for years.
I have questions:
1. Why do you assume the Pop Smoke team and Tripwire have or had no communication between each other?
2. In Country was being worked on for nearly 4 years with not much to show, then switching engines and starting all over again, why are you behaving that both titles will come out at the same time and that it's some sinister undercutting move?
as it looks like they have an already solid base on content built up.
well when it comes down to it... i think popsmoke is dead in the water unfortunately.
There is indeed room for 2 vietnam games but they both look and feel the same way. Popsmoke has already said that there going for a gritty play experience like the red orchestra series. BUT now tripwire is doing there own title with the same premise so MOST people will just go for the bigger known company.

That being said i dont want you guys to stop working on it, rather if you guys are working on ue4, i hope that you can reach out and join forces with popsmoke as it looks like they have an already solid base on content built up.
They might said that when they were doing a MOD, but they're doing a standalone game, there is no violations of business conduct, and in the interest of Tripwire to do what they want to do. There is no connection between "In Country Vietnam" and Rising Storm 2: Vietnam.Popsmoke has already said that there going for a gritty play experience like the red orchestra series.
