Doesn't tickle my fancy, it seems a bit mainstream from what i've been reading on player customisation etc. Era doesn't seem as interesting (as a european, personal preference) and all the guns are typically not that special on both sides.
Obviously if it gets DLC and visits the Korean War i might be interested. Play as the Chinese or American's in the new engine.
Choppers on my computer would be laggy as fuck i think, so no dice ill stay ground-bound.

Otherwise I very much enjoy the game, still getting used to the Helicopters tho.
I have a GTX 760 and my performance ranges from 40fps to 120+ while my buddy with a 1060 gets really rough performance on all maps, it's strange and I get the feeling it must be CPU bound right now
I haven't played in a while because all my friends stopped
has the average intelligence of the playerbase gone back up to beta levels? it was really frustrating having people who didn't listen or communicate at all after launch, but if people actually work as a team again I'll probably jump back in
Nah seemed the same to me as always m8, idiots who can't fly choppers and mic spammers galore because ho ho ching chong so funny. Less tking though.
Also, there are 2 XP boosting servers where you just go afk and get to lv99 in 6 or so hours. It's 1 million xp to get 99, and a good round will get you 1k. Get your hats now before they get shut down.
The custom maps are good now. Forest with fog, night time maps, etc.

That guy in the vid was me and I was mad after. It was a new guy trying to dig a tunnel while crouched but you can only do it standing up, so it swung instead and killed me.

The Community Test Branch will have an alpha-ish build of the expansion for testing. This means no voices, unfinished assets, ect. It will have 3D VOIP though!
To participate, open the properties under Rising Storm 2 in Steam, go to the betas tab, and click community test branch.
It will be up sometime today.

on the other thing, it seems you get to keep how you dressed your character up in the beta despite not having enough rank, if the aussie soldier in my character setup is anything to go by

Played a few rounds of Jungleraid. While defending as the US at objective A, there was an NVA outside the sandbags yelling 'Fuck you GI it's my rice', as the round progressed, more people started doing it, and as lockdown started, he and the rest of the NVA started screaming banzai and charged in through the holes in the walls.
the cobra is such a fat ungainly bastard that drops collective on every fucking turn while you'd think the bushranger would be a fat cunt piece of shit but it's actually fairly graceful for what it is and dare I say it pleasant to drive, though shame it doesn't have a lot of missiles
getting killed by heli's is rare unless there's a top gun pilot on the other side even then it's only really shitty when you're halfway to putting down a tunnel and some fuckwit heli destroying your current tunnel means your half-built tunnel gets destroyed too???
