First Indochina War

[PFC Luu [29ID]]

As the title suggests, would anyone like to see First Indochina War content (French Army vs Viet Minh)? I personally think it would be cool.

[Maki Nishikino]

As a mod sure.

[A Disease]

Well idk about it being only a mod...

I mean, the First Indochina War was very important leading up to the Second Indochina War. French vs Viet Minh sounds pretty fresh.

Although I'd prefer a Red Orchestra 3 rather than an extension of Rising Storm 2.

This game focuses on the later stages of the Vietnam War, as a mod I can see it happening but not as official content.

Why not give acurate guns for the time period and the for the sides. I really don't think that they used the Kar 98,stg44, or fg42 even if they did it probably saw limited use.

They had loads of Mausers actually. Not so sure about the STG, but I think I recall them using some in the early days, unless I'm mixing everything up with the Middle Eastern stockpiles.

The FG-42 would definitely have been either not present or really very rare.

What people need to consider is how German WW2 weapons ended up in Vietnam. As most know(or just simply assume) Russia catpured loads of them after the war, in which they started handing out to anyone sympathetic to the Communist cause.

Because of this I'd say it's safe to assume at least a few STG's ended up in Vietnam, as those saw plenty of service on the Eastern Front. Captured FG42's though? I'm a lot more skeptible Russia got a ton of those since those weren't exactly in the hands of Whermacht regulars on the front they were fighting on. Unless someone's got a source for that.

Pertty much everything else though you could probably assume ended up in the country in some capacity. STG's, Mausers(obviously), MP40s, MG34s. Probably even G43's and MG42's.

Whether any of that should actually be added to the game is another question. How much 8mm Mauser ammo did they even have lying around by 1969?

[=(e)= Lemonater47]

The vast majority of FG42s were captured by the Americans. Not the soviets. The Germans had lost over half of them that they had 3 months after D-day. The Americans captured so many in a short space of time that they vastly overestimated the total number the Germans had.

So as it was it would be rare as hell for the Russians to get their hands on them. Let alone for that soviet captired FG42 to make its way to Vietnam. Yes there's that picture of an FG42 in nam. But it's quite possible it was the only one.

The MP40 really would be the most common thing there. Especially later in the war as it was chambered in 9mm. Something the north Vietnamese could get their hands on. Plus the MP40s came in 2 shipments. From the Russians and from the French. As the French stationed there in the first indochina war took a bunch of MP40s and left them there. But even as I say that they still would have been very uncommon compared to other things.

So i would like to see two expansions for Rising Storm 2 Vietnam. One that is the First Indo China War. They would never do a game only with this war because not so many know that war or want to play as a french soldiar. This should be like 5 to 15 euros. The secound DLCs a remake of Rising Storm 1 WW2. With the graphics from RS2V, HUd from RS2V and all the mechanics. The people that have allready the game should get it for free or pay 5 euros. I like Rising Storm 1 after playing Rising Storm 2 its not that cool looking. If it would be in the game as a DLC it would be awsome i dont know if it take much time, but i think copared to other things its fast. So even if a new Red Orchestra will come out i still want to stick to the Rising Storm game. You know 2 games. One in Asia and secound in Europe as a Soviet.

If Red Orchestra 3 comes out and its in Afghan War they can put Red Orchestra 2 as a DLC and maybe also Heroes of the West or Red Orchestra 1 parts into the game. So my idea of the next Red Orchestra are German - Soviet War (WW2) from 1943 to 45 were the soviets start to kick back the german. If they do WW2 there can be also a DLC the Spanish Civil War from 1936 to 39. It is a forgotten War. The germans where testing there vehicles for the big War coming. There you can fight against other nations like the Romanian or Bulgarian. The secound cool idea is the Soviet Afghan War there were many helicopters and the mechanics are allready used in RS2V.

DLCs for RS2V First Indo China War; Rising Storm 1
Red Orchestra 3 1943 to 45 DLC: Spanish Civil War, some maps from Red Orchestra 1+2
Red Orchestra 3 Afghan War DLC: ? what do you think
Rising Storm 3: Korean War 1950 to 53 / remake of Rising Storm 1 with new factions and locations in Asia
New game series where you play in conflicts with west allies. WW2 France, BENELUX, Africa, Italy, Greece... later can be after WW2 conflicts in Southamerica, Africa or Europe.

Say what you think about that if you would like to see old maps or games in the new RO/RS games or not. If you want to see DLCs where you have to pay for but have new conflicts or what RO/RS game you want to see next.
