Rising Storm 2: Vietnam

Check Out Chivalry 2

Green Army Thanksgiving!

It is turkey time, so we have a Green Army Men update for you all, with new weapons and the opportunity to fight over Thanksgiving dinner. Head over to for more details!

Green Army Men!

Green Army Men:

The Green Army Men mod is now available as DLC to play with Rising Storm 2: Vietnam! For the full details of the Green Army Men DLC and it’s availability, see above!

Update 14 - Summer Holiday Update

With our 14th update, we are bringing you both new content for Vietnam AND setting up for a completely new addition - Green Army Men will be going official!

Within Vietnam itself, you will get:

2 new maps - the “Airbase Special”:

• Khe Sanh - with this map, we play out the “what if” the PAVN forces had succeeded in penetrating the perimeter and the fighting had spilled over onto the airfield itself, as the USMC fight to hold the attackers at bay.
• Da Nang - in another “what-if” scenario, the NLF guerillas breach the defenses of the huge Da Nang Air Base, with the USMC defenders trying to hold them back.

Green Army Men:

In addition, we will be taking the Green Army Men mod official, as a single DLC download, in the near future. Once it is released, all owners of Rising Storm 2: Vietnam will be able to play for free, using the base Rifleman class. And if, like us, you want to help support the Green Army Men developers (who are a mod team, building all of this in their spare time) you will be able to go and buy the Green Army Men Upgrade, which unlocks the other classes for you. All revenue from that Upgrade is shared with the Green Army Men team to support their efforts! For the full details of the Green Army Men DLC and it’s availability, see here:

Update 13 - Phoenix Rising!

This is now the 13th content update for you, bringing:

3 New Maps

The last 2 remastered maps brought forward from RO2/RS1:

• Apache Snow (remastered from “Winterwald”) - ARVN forces fighting their way steadily up a heavily-wooded hill, clearing NLF positions as they go.
• Demilitarized Zone (remastered from “Mamayev”) - main-force North Vietnamese PAVN troops assaulting dug-in ARVN units, across a burned-out and blasted hill in the DMZ area.

The third map is a favorite community map made official:

• Saigon - PAVN forces fighting their way through Saigon, past the US Embassy, the cathedral and on to the Presidential palace, as ARVN troops try to hold them off.

New Weapons

This update brings in some new weapons for the Northern forces:

• RP-46 light machine gun - a modernized variant of the classic DP-28, also license-built in China and North Korea, with stocks being supplied to the North Vietnamese
• MAS-49 - stocks of this semi-automatic rifle were left behind by the French and were used by the Northern forces in standard, sniper and rifle-grenade formats
• Molotov cocktail - the classic homemade weapon of guerilla forces the world over

Many other changes and fixes, including:

• Balance pass on many maps
• Radiomen can now spawn on their commander
• Leaning system overhauled
• Individual Class Customization
• Campaign Role and Weapon Balance changes
• Helicopter Aiming decoupled from the vehicle rotation
• And hundreds of bug fixes!

Update 12 - Rearmed and Remastered

With this, the 12th free content update in 18 months, we are bringing you a long list of performance improvements, audio occlusion, new weapons for the North Vietnamese forces, new maps, new heads - and a specific community request.

New weapons for the North Vietnamese:

• MP40 - the famous German sub-machine gun from WW2, issued to the NLF from Soviet stockpiles of captured weapons.
• 200-round belt for the RPD - this new variant will be selectable from the Role Select menu.
• Deployable DShK - players on the North Vietnamese team will be able to pick up a DShK 12.7mm heavy machine-gun from a resupply point, carry it to a new location and deploy it wherever they need it.
• Fougasse mine - a new trap for the Northern Sappers to use, this is basically a large improvised explosive device, detonated unwary Southern players standing on a pressure plate

New weapon for the Southern forces:

• The M2 Browning .50-caliber heavy machine gun will appear as a static support weapon in the new maps.

Performance improvements:

A considerable number of performance improvements have been implemented for this update, to player characters, particle effects, level optimizations, changes to the Instanced Rendering system, a new set of weapon LODs and a set of changes to textures, with an emphasis on improving how texture streaming is handled.

New maps:

This update marks the release of two ‘remasters’ of fan-favourite Red Orchestra 2/Rising Storm maps, taking them from their original settings and into the war-torn jungles of Vietnam:

• Mekong (remastered from "Hanto") - the NLF, fighting their way through the jungle to a US Marine Corps base.
• Dong Ha (remastered from "Guada
