I mean insurgency tactics will always win in a videogame where people are even less likely to use cover than IRL lmao, and technical doohickeys are useless when used by dipshits.
At least pick a better setting, like Korea. Vietnam has been a really ass setting for these sorts of games, I wish they just moved on and let the virtual people of Vietnam live in peace!!!
So much for caring about historical accuracy.
Shoot and cry (because you lost the game, not because you're sad about the virtual atrocities you did)
As a long time RS2 player and someone who also played quite a bit of HLL I wouldn't recommend it personally. RS2 still has a strong playerbase so I'd just go back to it. They didn't at all fix the problem of enemies being impossible to see, in HLL everything was just so grey that I would never be able to see anyone at all. It really made me appreciate how good RS2 is in that regard where every element, from the sound design to the visuals to the actual game information, is giving you clues as to which bush is hiding a GI in it.
And you might say "But thats just camouflage its realistic" but HLL makes no other attempts at realism. Its whole niche is that its just one rung above a regular arcade shooter in realism terms. Its also yet another unoptimised UE5 bloat game. Finally while the tunnel mechanics are a interesting design, they require actual teamwork. Anyone who has played HLL knows that even a basic level of co-operation cannot be expected from people, which is why I've always appreciated that the co-operation in RS2 is very modular.
My only real issue with RS2 is that the calcification of the playerbase does lead to campaign mode often becoming a steam roll, but its a problem I've never seen a good solution to.

Me entering this thread, 3 comments deep, still trying to figure out what the fuck you all are talking about.
Rising Storm 2, is a game set in Vietnam with fighting between different factions such as the PLA, NVA, USMC, US army, and even the South Vietnamese collaborators (ARVN) and Aussies. Its from tripwire interactive which also is responsible for the Red Orchestra series set in WW2 between germany and russia.
Damn, I thought it was just me lol. I always had trouble seeing anything in HLL.
Yes. Unfortunately, it is a very good game, especially because of the tunneling mechanics, which make for extremely dynamic gameplay.
When you win as the U.S. in the game you 'feel good' because you are usually winning by the skin of your teeth.
A dude at work as been raving about this game over the last few months.
i would play this fking game if it didnt crash within 5 mins of entering a game
