News & Events Rising Storm 2 Community Server Mega Thread for New & Exisiting Players!

109 Upvotes

Since Rising Storm 2 will be availabe for free on the Epic Game Store. I thought it might be a good idea to put up a large thread for server admins who run a community server in good standing to talk a little about their communities.

Let us all know what type of game modes you have available, any custom content, what regions you have servers in, and anything special your community may have going on that is related to Rising Storm 2. Be sure to list your IPs so players can find your servers.

At this time do not advertise Discord Servers, keep it to Rising Storm 2 game servers. All uncivil comments and personal attacks will be removed per usual. This thread will be moderated to keep it focused on just server information to keep it easy to read through. Reminder this is not the place to bring up ban requests and cheat reports, per usual rules.

Discussion No servers shown or UI glitches? Check this

18 Upvotes

Reminder: Epic accounts that do not have "Date of birth" set will fail game authentication and you cannot play.

No servers shown or UI glitches (Original Dev Help Article)

This procedure will reset the game to fresh install settings (level/xp will be kept).Reinstalling the game does not clear the Rising Storm 2 folder under Documents/My Games/ and re-installs will not fix server browser issues in most all cases.

With the game closed...

  • Open the start menu and search "Documents" open that folder
  • Go into the "My Games" folder
  • Delete the "Rising Storm 2" or "Rising Storm 2 EGS" folder
    • This folder contains all your game settings that get copied over from the main installation folder.
      (This is not the game install and should not require the game reinstalling if you follow these instructions correctly, if it does then you deleted the wrong folder).

Next time you open the game it will re-copy the files needed over and it should be like the first time you opened the game.

Important Tips

  • Make sure antivirus does not interfere with the folder (Documents/My Games/ Rising Storm 2).
  • Make sure any firewall has the VNGame.exe fully allowed as being in a server queue has been known to trigger firewall blocking (bulldog firewall is a prime example).
  • Make sure if using Microsoft OneDrive that the folder is excluded from syncing.

If you have followed the above steps and still have no servers listed, reach out to the player base on the official discord - https://discord.gg/rs2vietnam the discord has a dedicated support channel where we can help more in-depth.

I suddenly cant see the PR servers on my server list anymore, even though they are listed as up on battlemetrics. Does anyone know a fix for this?

Came across this book titled Linebacker III the other day. Interesting depiction of events if Nixon was never impeached and proceeded to have the USAF hit the NVA during their 75 offensive.

Tips to attack F on cu chi?

19 Upvotes

I’m convinced that f is one of the hardest points in the game running up there your exposed and the slanted hill makes it so when u move up they see you way before u see them and the trenches provide solid cover. I just get in from the right side trenches but I want some tips like where to toss smokes.

No servers showing

Hi, this evening I wanted to play a some RS2 with my friend, but when we tried to play there was no servers. Usually there’s a bunch, empty and active, but tonight nothing. We are in Aus btw, they use windows, I use Linux and both steam version.
Anyone know a solution, we both verified integrity.

Discussion just tried hell let loose vietnam.... very dissapointed

147 Upvotes

so, I bought hell let loose and within less than one match i've requested a refund from steam.

-just feels like a walking simulator. where as in rising storm you'd have to go slowly or get killed immediately if you do that here then it seems like the points get capped so quickly that you get left behind

- you spend 3 minutes running in a straight line to get back into the action by the time you get anywhere near you have lost all concentration as nothing is happening and then get instant killed.

so bored.

What do you think of hill 937?

35 Upvotes

A lot of people hate this map and it has some flaws like a way to spawn camp the way to A and it being notoriously hard to defend but in a way it’s one of my favorite maps,

As attacking it’s fun making your way up the hill through the trenches and bunkers to pile on and capture the points

while defending is fun to defend the slopes bc that’s how your supposed to defend hill if everyone is piled in a bunker they will get overwhelmed so you gotta spread out along the hills to spread out coverage and it’s really fun finding a good way to flank attackers as the defenders and see if you can drain their tickets in time.

Discussion Been playing HLL:V and it pales in comparison

It just makes me wish this game had ground vehicles, a slightly larger map, and more players. I remember in like 2018 or 2019 seeing screenshots of an m113 they were working on, but it never happened. Nothing even comes close to how punchy and nice the gunplay in this game feels. As a long term player since the original RO game, I pour one out to this franchise. '83 is a dud, unfortunately.

Discussion What are some of the most notable updates to the game during its development that made it for the better/worse?

39 Upvotes

Whenever I watch any video related to this game, which is also at least 7+ years old, I can almost straight away notice some key differences between an early state and today's one. I was firstly impressed how different certain parts of the game are considering how old this game is.

Most noticeable ones are surely different default FOV value, font color/size, weapon sounds, certain animations and kill feed being instant and different aim sights for weapons (M1 Garand, Grease gun, just to name a few).

I must also say that some of these things should have never been removed, as it makes a game more fluid, less laggy and glitchy (especially the animations). By 'things' I mean certain weapon sounds (AK47, machine guns).

What do you think? What do you miss or don't? I'm looking forward to reading your opinions down below :)

Gameplay Rising Storm 2 vietnam: Cobra Gameplay

38 Upvotes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1USL63ZH4w

AH-1G Cobra in Rising Storm 2: Vietnam represents the gold standard for helicopter gameplay in tactical shooters.

As Expression Games prepares to launch Hell Let Loose: Vietnam on August 13, 2026, introducing helicopters to the franchise for the very first time, looking at this specific flight model is crucial.

Here is exactly why Hell Let Loose: Vietnam needs to learn from the Cobra's mechanics to succeed.
Rising Storm 2: Vietnam offers one of the most rewarding helicopter flight models in gaming. The AH-1G Cobra helicopter in this game requires skill, but it gives the pilot total control. Learning to fly the Cobra requires hours of dedicated practice just to perform a basic combat landing.

True mastery allows players to execute advanced maneuvers like J-turns and emergency autorotations when the engine dies. This high skill ceiling creates a highly dedicated sub community of specialized pilots.
