THe main issue we have is that they get RO 2 for free when they buy RS
What Sarcinelli said.
Also, I believe most people don't feel encouraged to pay for something they make not even like. Those who liked RO2 will most likely love Rising Storm. Those who didn't will think twice.

As a player (cause I don't know JS) I like the fact you get RO2 with it. This helps keep the two games connected. Hell it would be cool if servers could run both games on the same server. Just my 2 cents. Is anybody know 100% there charging and doing this anyway? The video was very brief so I wouldn't start making "oh no you didn't"'s just yet.

Maybe some Koreans and Manchurians? Westerners wouldn't notice the difference, though.you got it all wrong. it's a japanese ww2 shooter!

And thats the point. Why? Maybe they have to pay 10$ more then you, maybe you get it for free, maybe you get a discount with the Inb4Reset. Aslong as there are no real facts why even bothering?

It'd be interesting if with Rising Storm's Japanese models, we'd be able to create a few Manchurian maps and throw in a JS2, JS3, tank for the Soviets. It was a hardcore campaign for the Soviets (as they had great end war technologies to use on this front, let alone the fact that many were battle hardened beyond belief), and I don't think it's ever been depicted in any game before
(I would love to know if there is a game with the Chinese/Soviet wars against the Japanese, please point them out to me).
Or something else I've never seen, a whole Sino-Japanese game-mod depicting Chinese struggle under Japanese occupation.
The historic significance of these two parties in world war II is often heavily undermined across the world (The Soviets in Manchuria, and the entire Chinese experience under Japanese occupation).
For those that don't know, yes the Soviets did face more than 1 million Japanese soldiers in China in their far east front (as well as Sakhalin).
And I don't mean to be a party pooper, but how many games do you know that show the Pacific War - and then ask yourself how many games do you know that show the 2nd Sino-Japanese war.

Yes, Sino-Japanese War is also worthy of all attention, especially with the Chinese using all sorts of weaponry, as they were supplied (or licenced) by different countries.
This urban battle also is very much in the spirit of HOS:

EDIT: I haven't seen the Soviet campaign in Manchuria even in hardcore wargames, even though it is a major event in late WW2. There is the problem of the Soviets mostly steamrolling the Japanese, but it's not like there were no battles.

So it is confirmed payware?
Pass. Unless its $5. Considering how little I played RO2 (22 hours; good amount of that time spent trying to get the server browser to work) I can't see myself paying much for another game affiliated with RO2.
Posts like this are hilarious. OMG, won't play as Americunz because I played them in the past, but playing as Germans never gets old!
Unique Americunz equipment is boring, but playing another country with more 5 shot bolt action rifles is so different! This mentality does humor me.

no. not till a dev posts that it is. forum members can post all they want about what they interpreted from the video. but it doesn't mean anything, till someone fron RS posts it.

#1, I never paid for their maps or DLC's nor would I ever. (in other words, I don't think it's ok)
#2, I have never paid for a modification of a game ever and I'm not about to start paying for one now, especially when 50-70% of it can already be found in many other similar WWII FPS's.
The US Soldiers, Battles and Weapons can be found in many.... MANY other FPS's and the Pacific front has already been covered by such games as Medal of Honour and Call of Duty, which has many of the same Japanese weapons.
And another thing that bugs me about this game are these so-called Spawn Bunkers.
They sound like Spawn Camping Death Traps to me..... I highly doubt you're going to have an American team of players setup around a spawn bunker as they showed in the video and I highly doubt you're going to have Japanese players hiding inside those spawn bunkers until someone tosses a satchel forcing them out to get slaughtered.
What's more likely going to happen is you're going to have 2-3 US Team players camping out over top of those spawn bunkers and getting some really cheap & easy kills as Jap Team players rush out to their death....
... especially once everybody gets familiar with the map layouts and where these bunkers are all located.
Seems like a bad feature to me.
Are you being serious or funny?
I can't tell

I've already clearly explained my reasons and why... if you want to look beyond the obvious and sum up what I said to make yourself feel better, go right ahead.
Maybe next time you could open your eyes a bit better and read though what is actually said:
But hey... take things out of context and try to troll away if you like. It's also why I never got into Darkest Hour (among other reasons)
Either way I don't give two craps what humors you with what I say... this is my position, I explained myself clearly and whether or not you agree or like what I say won't change it.
The bottom line is that there's nothing specifically wrong with US focused WWII Shooters, or your history or your weapons, except for the fact that for me, it's all been over saturated in the last decade or two.
I just need a break from that stuff to try new weapons, new tactics, new battles, new history..... well, new as in history that hasn't been over exposed.
That's what interests me about Red Orchestra and Mare Nostrum, and why I didn't stick around for Darkest Hour, or have much interest in Rising Storm..... so far.
