    Lessons from Closed Beta 3 and The Start Of Closed Beta 4

    This is an on-going investigation - the reason we have not actioned anything yet is that we are doing a full top-down look at every major weapon system and make sure EVERYTHING is working as expected - from damage to the accuracy of the weapons. We are being as comprehensive as possible when it...

    Weapons are too weak

    The beta servers are not running any friendly fire damage reduction. With that said, we'll address the hitzones/damage with the next beta build.

    THANK YOU to those who participated in 1st Closed Beta

    The RS2 team would like to thank everyone who has been helping us out throughout the Alpha and now with the 1st Closed Beta! This is a pretty big milestone for the team and its both exciting and nerve wracking to see people react to the game for the first time. Also, a big thanks to those of...

    Rising Storm 2: Vietnam PAX West Panel Recap

    We are going to rely more on the updated vote kicking system, and spawn time penalties to separate out punishment for TKs and people who are griefing. Griefers will more likely get kicked by votes, rather than automatic kicks. I believe the automatic kicking system in RO2 is harmful to new...

    Tripware, please, do not ruin this game as you did with RO2 at the beginning

    I believe our panel at PAX West should have covered most of this. There are a variety of map sizes, but the big ones are bigger than most of the ro2 levels. Pilots spawn outside of the helicopter and are not bound to their helicopter. They can crash land and exit their vehicle. Ranked and...

    what kind of ammo/mag. check mechanic will RS2 have?

    Yes, ammo check has been updated (old method is still an option). There are icons and colors associated with the different levels of "fullness". Full mags show up grey and neutral, and if you load a half full mag, you'll see a half full icon, with yellow - continue with red for low ammo and a...

    Media Update: Mosin Nagant

    Manufactured at the Tula arsenal in 1937 this 1891/30 found its way to Vietnam by way of a Soviet supply crate. A significant number of old Soviet surplus supplies, plus weapons captured during WW2, were sent to The People's Republic of Vietnam (PAVN) and to the Nation Liberation Front (NLF or...

    Media Update - RPG-7 Backblast

    Last week Yoshiro mentioned that he was going to be at GamesCon this week and wouldn’t have a chance to post another media update. The guys over at Antimatter Games put together another webm for you to demonstrate the RPG-7’s backblast. Anyway. The effects shown are WIP. The backblast from...

    Gamescom

    We were going to show something at GamesCon but plans changed with other parties involved so we have decided to do something on our on time table outside of GamesCon. TW and AMG will be at PAX West (we're doing a panel this time, not demoing the game in a booth).

    Media Update - M8 Smoke Grenade

    It's likely the first shots from the incoming rounds were a little too high to activate the suppression. The tracers are exaggerated, but like everything else, are subject to change at any point in development. The tracers are from an RPD. Also, the smoke from the smoke grenades follow the...

    Media Update - M79 Buckshot Rounds

    Blood not showing up would be a bug. There's no shortage of blood/gore in this game.

    Questions about RS2 weaponry

    1) PPSH is the same model from RO2, but it will be getting a texture update to match the quality of the new weapons. 2) Player-usable cover is a legacy item for Vietnam. They still work, but are not supported and may have issues if modders decide to use them.
