That's how the late Alpha / early Beta looked like.
Now imagine having 30, 40 or even 50 of those players on a single server. Players who could singlehandely carry a public game with their tactical knowledge, experience and mechanical skills. But the depth is still there, it's just harder to see it when veterans need to babysit noobs, and they might not even listen anyway.During the late Alpha / early Beta the vast majority of RS2 playerbase were grizzled veterans, including the very best RO2 players in the world. And after all we had to learn only 3 maps that are very, very simple.Yes, RO2 loses a lot of tactical depth, but that's only because of the COMPLETELY new players who most likely have never played a game like this ever. Top veterans who have spent more than 1k hours (some more than 2 or even 3k) in RO2 don't need as much time to learn RS2 as the others. In my opinion rising storm red orchestra had a more immersive feeling, with the bolt action rifles you had to nail the shot or you were probably death. Beyond that, if I had to choose, having played tons of both, I'd go with Rising Storm 2, if only because it's newer and going to have a larger player base.I also prefer the Vietnam setting but that's a personal opinion. The game is older, and doesn't look quite as nice, although it's the same basic engine.It's obviously a different theme.
In general, it looks a little bit better too, has helicopters, and has more modern US Army and Soviet weaponry.RO2 and the first Rising Storm take place in WWII. RS2 is the newest game, obviously, and takes place in Vietnam.
