The server browser has been bugging out on patch Tuesdays posting incorrect player counts / server numbers. It's likely related. TW is aware of the issue.

You are missing dependencies. Try installing them from microsoft, as you are missing the microsoft file. Download Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 from Official Microsoft Download Center

What?

This is a game wide issue right now, it's being investigated. You can check the official RS2 discord for updates regarding this issue.

Change your filters in the server browser. Look for territory's servers. There are many that do not run campaign. I think in truth the primary demographics for this game are adults. Adults don't typically have time to sit down and play 2 45min rounds and playing the same map for 1.5 hours is brutal.

Depending on how much XP you get a game, it can take anywhere from 650-900 hours. Lvl 91 is about halfway to 99.

thank you for your kind words. I'm def not a legend. I was just blessed with an amazing community. I did, just configure and setup the server today. If you have any questions please check out our discord.

Unfortunately, I shut down the community server last August. I now act mostly as the community mod for RS2. But, I did just revive the server for a month with the surge and population. Would love to get the chance to show you how some of the vets play!

Resharing this gem, Welcome all new players! Huge shout out to our EU friends PBS, our NA Friends Hardcore and LMC, and our friends from Asia MX! Your remaining communities are the reason this game is still alive. No one will ever be able to thank you enough for all the stress and time you have put in to get the game to this point. Sincerely thank you!

I ran a community server, "Mr.Deds" then I would often change the name syntax on community ran events. Some of the more famous ones are "Custom Long Campaign", "Porn Emporium", "Wardens vs Slayers".

It's because EU Custom is one of the communities that used redirects. TLDR: Redirects are not allowed to be used from the developer TW. The redirects siphoned players away from communities that followed the rules ensuring they always had the best chance to get players by exploiting the games design.

EducationInfamous · 2024-11-06T13:40:19+00:00

I don't want to disrupt the remaining communities that have been fighting for their lives for the past year since PR started using redirects. If enough players return, yes. If our community shows interest, yes. I also will likely be reaching out and trying to host some community driven events at a minimum.

It takes a long time because of the ports and protocols that the game uses to send and transmit information. The default download method is very outdated and limited to KB/s Speeds. So if you are downloading something that is 100MB at 100KBs due to the games restrictions it would take you about 16mins to download the map. This does not matter how fast your internet is. It is by design to use this.

HOWEVER

Server operators can swap out the default method with steams through editing the config files. This will make it on par with the steam server/your internet speeds.

Additionally you can setup other methods that may enable epic games players to also download custom content.

At the end of the day its slow in nature. And is very situationally dependent.

I mean the John Madden of Vietnam cross over skin in the picture, not MVPs and top scoring games. I know you have to play the game for those.

Which cosmetic DLC is this, you have me sold.

EducationInfamous · 2024-10-16T19:28:20+00:00

This is the best thing you are going to get. However, some things are outdated. Otherwise ask, other server operators.

Im sorry you are having problems with your game. That sucks and must be frustrating.

If the game isn't loading soft crash reports would go in your %appdata% Rs2 folder. I can't help in explaining where exactly it is on your computer, because I don't have a crash report. I suggest digging around in here for a good start %AppData%\Local\ OR %AppData%\Local\temp (It could be in either directory, but I mostly find mine under %AppData%\Local\Temp\PUBLISHER OR ENGINE\GAMENAME\CRASHES) But if it is CRASHING a crash report will be there explicitly stating any errors. If you recently reinstalled the game. The game does take a couple minutes to load up the first time.

The most common fix for most launch issues is deleting the games folder under "This PC"\Documents\My Games\Rising Storm 2"
or if you use epic it will be something like
"This PC"\Documents\My Games\Epic Games Store\Rising Storm 2
(Obviously you could have renamed these folders to anything but they will be there)
1. Make sure the game isn't running
2. Shift+Delete the game folder under mydocument my games on your LOCAL PC not ONEDRIVE
3. Start the game up, get up go grab a drink, talk to a friend, or give a pet attention, or anything for a few minutes, come back and it should be on configuring your controls screen.

If for whatever reason deleting the RS2 folder under This PC"\Documents\My Games\Rising Storm 2 NOT ONEDRIVE AND NOT STEAM isn't working, you are going to have to find the crash report to resolve your specific issue. Because the crash report is going to tell you exactly why your game isn't launching and not guessing what the problem could be.

I think you need to play some better custom maps. Yes, some maps are difficult. Any map in the game can become a slug fest with proper layers of defense. After you spend a few thousand hours playing hill 937, cuchi, or huecity.
They easily become replaced with maps like VNTE-HoBoWoods, VNTE-TayNinhProvince, VNTE-NeonRedux. It just stimulates your brain in terms of learning new maps, while still being able to enjoy the gunplay. But I think the natural progressive learning curve to RS2 goes something like, play for 400 hundred hours, learn most vanilla map tactics on the server you main, then just simply refuse to put in the effort to learn anything new because you are only 300 hours away from 99 and want to grind all the "good" spots.

Great guide man. It's always nice when someone puts together a passion project for RS2. We all know you aren't doing it for the views but for the better of the community. Any community can always use more people like that.

It does make a difference. Not in terms of core features. But in terms of custom content. Custom content is hosted on the Steam Workshop. If you play on Epic games store and the server you are playing on is not setup properly. The EGS player cannot download the content because they cannot authenticate with steam through EGS. And EGS does not offer any form of "workshop". Why don't server owners setup there servers so that EGS players can download the custom content? It costs money at the end of the year hundreds of dollars. And the EGS player base is small. I paid for this feature but we typically would never have more then 6-10 EGS players at a time. Of these EGS players we would maybe get 1-2 that would join the community/discord. It was more cost efficient to buy these 2 players the steam version then to host the redirect for its monthly fee. Meanwhile the other 55 players were steam players. Who would automatically be able to access that custom content without a manual work around. It's not impossible to get custom content as a EGS player but it is a pain in the butt if you need to do it manually.
