We have just pushed live a required update for Rising Storm 2: Vietnam. It includes the following changes:
New Additions
Video - Instanced Rendering
- After positive community feedback, instanced rendering has been set to "on" by default on compatible graphics cards. You may still disable this setting through the video options if you experience any issues
On medium and lower graphics settings, various art assets may display incorrectly - if you are planning on using the experimental "Instanced Rendering" mode, it is highly recommended that you do so on High graphics settings or above.
Please remember to continue reporting your feedback at the following location: http://steamcommunity.com/app/418460/discussions/6/
Server
- Removed Server Side Hit Detection as an available option. Server Side Hit Detection was causing inconsistent gameplay experiences compared to servers running the default Client Side Hit Detection. We recommend server admins use a generous ping limit on their server if there is concern about high-ping players.
Gameplay
- Refined MAT-49 recoil and handling: Decreased 9mm variant recoil by 40%, Increased 7.62 MAT-49 recoil by 15%
- Increased the "match end" bonus from 35 points to 100 - these points will be added to your score regardless of whether or not you won, as long as you finished the match
- Added a 3-second delay to lowering your weapon when first entering spawn protection
- Increased the duration of 'pain' effects to 5 seconds
Maps
- Standardized the ammo resupply timer to 60 seconds for all Resupply Points across all maps
Art
- Added a directional indicator to the Claymore preview mesh
- Changed the blood splatter/obliteration gore decal to translucent rather than opaque
- Replaced the ripped trousers on the "vest and pants" character customization option to distinguish it from the "torn pants" option
- Tweaked the flat-surface detection for foot placement on animations. This should prevent characters from "popping up" inappropriately on uneven terrain
User Interface
- Added squad spawn tunnels to the tactical view of the Squad Leader who created them
- Re-scaled all objective icons to make objective fills smoother
- When cycling between spectators, the camera now interpolates between players when using the fixed-third person viewing mode
Bugfixes

Audio

- Fixed an extremely rare edge-case that could cause the anti-cheat authentication to timeout for a client under packet loss at specific authentication state
- Fixed an internal issue affecting the processing of few anti-cheat heuristics
- Peer-to-Peer: Fixed an issue causing the back-end connection to fail internally at times
Misc. Fixes and Additions
- Due to an error on our end, there was an issue with stat tracking for "shots fired" with the M1917 revolver. Starting with update 1.04, the "shots fired" count will start tracking correctly. Please note, your 'total' may be unusually high due to shots tracked before the fix. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused
SDK
- Fixed an issue where modders would be unable to add their own character customisation
Localization
- Fixed an issue where the Server Browser would display text rather than icons when playing with Russian localization
- Fixed an issue where some server browser icons were inconsistent with icons displayed for other languages when playing with Russian localization
