All these sections are kept in line by the Command passing down orders to the heads of each squad. Teams of up to 50 players on PC each split into sections such as Heavy Machine Guns, Infantry, Recon, and more. Beyond the Wire aims to simulate intense World War One conflict, where either side can come out on top as long as players communicate with their team.īeyond the Wire puts players in the boots of a soldier on either side of the battle in World War One. It's silent except for a few pops coming from the horizon, and then artillery shells begin raining down as the soldiers attempt to take the village and beyond. That applies to snipers as well, because Rising Storm 2 doesn't use a "hold your breath" mechanic for aiming while sniping either.It's a dark evening outside the French village of Frise as French and British soldiers march in, scars from the artillery covering the land. On the plus side, you can prop a gun up on a ledge for greater stability and ease of aiming. Heavier weapons like mine (and the flamethrower) cause their carriers to move more slowly. I picked a guy with a big, heavy machinegun. behind a leveling system so that everyone can jump right into the class of their choosing with full access to that character's era-appropriate weaponry and tools. The game doesn't lock weapons, classes, etc. We selected from several classes, each with different strengths, weaknesses, and a role to play on the team.
The two maps Tripwire has revealed so far, Firebase and Jungle, perfectly evoke the imagery of that war.Īt PAX East, I hopped into a 16-player Skirmish game on the US side of the battle.
These maps faithfully recreate multiple famous Vietnam War locations such as Vietnam's deadly jungles, cities, hills, Rice Fields, Plantations, and more. Besides the military versus guerilla conflict, the other major benefit of setting Rising Storm 2 is the maps themselves.
