There is a whole gaggle of FH2 devs working on this as I recall. If you catch the tale end of the RO2 thread there is a bunch of stuff regarding this mod.
"1-2 years" is actually based on nothing. Just want to point that out.There is a whole gaggle of FH2 devs working on this as I recall. If you catch the tale end of the RO2 thread there is a bunch of stuff regarding this mod.
Is this why it will take 1-2 years to release Eastern Front or no?
There has never been a mod specifically for the Pacific Theater & this one looks quite good.Never? There was one for bf42, called Pacific Shores iirc, that joined FH and we got a ton of cool maps and ships. But this looks really cool
Isn't Taranov doing some researching for them?

The Hell in the Pacific beta looks promising as well as Rising Storm, so some quality stuff is on the way. I am looking forward to both of them :)
I prefer that instead of the usual murrica marine masacrating wave after wave of arab/russian/german/non-murrican .I am not looking for that aswel. A good trailer always shows thing neutral from both sides. Japs shooting muricans, Muricans shooting japs. Its mostly japs shooting muricans. I know many mods who started with these type of trailers and then turned out to be heavily biased towards one faction. Many died because of that. (Republic at war is a fine example. Excellent quality mod but the balance is heavily shifted to the CIS side and the developers do not hide that they fuckin" love the CIS and hate the GAR)

Ugh, unlocks....isn´t there a "classic mode" in RS, just like in RO2 where you don´t have to grind to unlock basic weaponry?
No iron sight zoom...Oh baby....If only we had this in FH2.
I have two too if anyone wants ;)ME
Its intense.Not as scary as I with the knee mortar.
flamethrowers are scary tough
does the japanese soldier also get the type 99 rifle?
I just picked up the game! Now, when I send a beta key, that is just access to the beta, correct? When the full version comes out they'll need to buy it?
My Review :)
I would describe this game as a bad joke. A bad joke, just like it's predecessor.There are people who dont like Call of battlefield modern whorefare dubstep 17. I dont like games were full auto weapons deliver 50 bullets on the size of an Post-it note. Nor do i like games were i need 10 bullets to kill a single guy.
Why do people like this? Do they seriously enjoy playing a game where you first run over 100 meters to get to position to defend, then get killed instantly by a guy that you never see, but he allways sees you.
Maps are badly designed, look at Iwo Jima and understand what I mean.
Also, flamethrower and knee mortar are sweet, but unnecessary.
Every single time I quit the game because it's not fun. Games are supposed to be fun and this game fails badly. Even Modern Warfare games are enjoyable.
I hope Rising Storm fails. And luckly it will because games like Cod: Ghost and Battlefield 4 are coming later this year.

Watch out we have a COD fan boy in here... Learn to have the skill to know who shot you and get kills. In reality you would not see your enemy shooting you either. Also Tomahawk and Nuke is unnecessary on an infantry fight yet those don't bother you. And saying that you hate to go to a place just to get shot makes me wonder why A) you play FH2 and B) you play FPS genre at all...
This game is awesome. Played only a few rounds but did quite well in it. Maybe i will buy it later on this year.
Does anyone has an extra key? PM please if you do :)
Gah I preloaded this then it deleted itself 3/4 through the download. But hey it was only 7gb...Same here. Finally downloaded it today, which wasn´t too much fun...
Stuarts and ha-GO's
then shermans and Chi-ha Shiroto's
Also a grenadier kit for both sides
Incase you own RO2, you get automaticly a part of the Rising Storm multiplayer. So you can play on all maps but only with bolt action rifles. They implemented this to allow mixed map rotations and to avoid splitting the community.That is the best solution i've heard. Someone deserves a medal!
Rather nice feature I think. It doesn't kick you from the server, just because you don't own DLC XYZ.

Does this work the other way? So when i have bought RS, Am I able to play RO2 multiplayer?
After half a year break from RO2 I decided to check Rising Storm.... After few rounds I have enough this game for another half a year. I really don't like this nowadays trend of bottleneck maps favoring camping style...Camping is fine, the bottleneck is what kills both this game and RO2. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy playing both, and in a sense it is a similar type of gameplay as RO/DH, but it's just lacking something. That's why I like project reality and to a less extent FH2, the gameplay can be so dynamic.

I just tried iwojim as the allies. I havent brought RS so I was restricted to a bolt action rifle, nontheless, I made tons of kills. Dont know if I got lucky or If I was been REALLY carefull, but I enjoyed the assault, didnt died much and manage to flank the japs and take the left shore.Yeah I'm the exact same, still managed to get pretty high up the leaderboard. Dunno if I'm just good at these sorts of games or everyone else is a noob. Gonna buy it tomorrow
you forgot RIFLE GRENADES
*slaps
It pings? Too trick japs to think you are reloading.
Im still bummed out of the lack of Springfield 1903a1 rifle.
Marines (The ones in Rising Storm):
(http://media.liveauctiongroup.net/i/8347/9753517_1.jpg?v=8CD1F0C087A2840)
Army:

The Marine one has a 8x scope and iron sights, army just a 2.5x scope and no iron sights.
The Marine 8x scope is the lvl 50 unlock for the Springfield Sniper.
So I hear this is awesome while normal RO2 is not. How is that true?
was thinking about buying it but im really short of money now, do you guys think it will be on a sale during the summer? (considering it's a fairly new game..)
Necro! :D Rising Storm 2 (I didn't see a thread)Pre-alpha i hope, because that M60 sounds dull
Anyone see the Alpha gameplay trailer at the PC Gamer Weekender?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12S1gk9sImc (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12S1gk9sImc)
I remember they announced this game at E3. Then.... nothing. Now they're actually showing some gameplay footage and progress. I haven't played RO2 or Rising Storm that much, but as for historical infantry shooters, it's really good. Obviously I don't expect any vehicles, and the only helicopters/ planes you'll see are called in by airstrike.
But if this is anything like Rising Storm, I'm pretty pumped. Been a while since we've have a good Vietnam FPS imo. With mod support etc, you could even see some South Vietnamese/ Australian/ maybe even French troops ;D (we can dream)
Is anyone else following this?
But if it is the same quality as Rising storm, i'm inSame here, Rising Storm gameplay in Nam setting sounds brilliant.
Pre-alpha i hope, because that M60 sounds dull
But if it is the same quality as Rising storm, i'm in
Well if thats the case, i'm sold. Count me in.Pre-alpha i hope, because that M60 sounds dull

Yea it's alpha. The devs said that this video was recorded before they had an appointment to go and record proper gun sounds. I hope they can find some voice actors for the Vietnamese and Americans. It would be a shame to have to use original Rising Storm stuff.
Idk overall it looks promising. I'm interested to see what they come up with.
ALSO, free Beta weekend is open right now to try the game out. Ends on Monday.

Q: Are There plans for microtransactions or paid DLC?
A: Yes, we are looking at adding cosmetic packs to the game post launch. This will allow characters to have additional items to personalize their in-game characters. This paid content is designed to help us continue supporting the game with new free content for all players moving forward.
Q: Does the game feature a modding SDK? What can you do with it?
A: Yes the game features a full SDK. Modders can do anything from new maps and weapons to full total conversions if they wish. It is most similar to UE3/UDK with game specific unreal script extensions and middleware additions.
Q: What Factions Are Available in Game? A: Southern Forces: United States Army & Marines Northern Forces: Northern Liberation Front (Also known as the Vietcong) and the People's Army of Vietnam (The North Vietnamese Army).
We are looking at adding the ARVN and ANZAC forces as an update at some point during the game's life cycle. But keep in mind that plans can change.
Did anyone else buy this game? I've had a good time playing around, and the 'Double XP' weekend's brought me to level 12 already 8)Got it and i love it, would like some more maps to be honest, Can't wait for ANZAC and ARVN then :D
It's a fun game imo. Standard Rising Storm, and it's Vietnam so it's something different. It's got a few problems; the server browser, stuttering and hit reg have been the most frustrating so far. But the devs released a list of potential fixes for a patch that should come out later this month.
They also noted that they have the ANZACs and ARVN in their content roadmaps sometime down the road 8)
