Not only does this game kick all other FPS games asses, it has one of the most beautiful music I've ever heard. It's a shame how under rated it is. It makes me wish i had more thumbs up to Tripwire.

Everytime I listen past 1:40 I just close my eyes and listen. Around 2:06 is when I start getting the chills down my neck. There is no words to describe what an amazing song this is and what a story it has behind it. Truly amazing.
One of the best books to read about the conflicts on Okinawa and Peleliu is E.B Sledges "with the old breed", amazing account of the brutal fight against the Japanese.
+Puggy 117 If I was given 2 more days to defend this island, I would defend this island with my whole body and soul for 2 more days. If I could have 12 more sons, I would have 12 more chances to defend this island.
Such a peaceful and beautiful song you get to listen too before you march, or rather crawl through a jungle, into hell. I feel like its definitely trying to capture some of that idea of honor and glory in war the Japanese had(and, before WW1, most Western countries had)
When 2:06 hits I get the most intense chills, simply the most emotionally impacting part of the piece. Really makes you think about the honour and nationhood at stake in terms of the Japanese forces. As many people have also pointed out, the mix of eastern and western instruments is outstanding here. A tribute to both sides of the Pacific theatre. A most underrated soundtrack
Extremely underrated. It always sticks with me. But I guess it is one of songs that you have to be in a certain mood to really understand. I was showing it to my friends when we played some good game scores and they thought it was a really boring.

Hearing this made me miss the days when Rising Storm was real popular.. nowadays youre lucky to find a server with more than a handful of players as far as i know.. Im glad i played during the golden age of red orchestra. To all the soldiers we lost along the way 🫡
I always found it interesting how disciplined and faithful both the Germans and Japanese were, willing to fight any odds and almost unshakable in their determination, honor and duty to fight to the very end. What I believe really stands out is how they went about it; the Germans were logical, calculating and striving to be as efficient as possible, machine like almost, iron discipline, the Japanese on the other hand were more Spiritual and connected with their Ancestors, and did not want to bring dishonor or shame upon them. They both had the same mentality in the end of giving it all and till the very end, but they had a very different approach. With that said, same respect has to be given to the Americans, British and Soviets who fought against such forces, no doubt any mortal man would have been shaking to face such an fearsome opponent, where death was almost a guarantee.
Many more nations fought in this bloody war not just these 5 but stalin did once say that a million deaths is a statistic so i guess we just dont have the time to honour every countryman who fought in this war so we just focus on "major countries" but it is what it is
Wars is what shatters us, but when that is put aside it’s what brings us together. Part of being human we learn from our mistakes and that makes us stronger.
I miss this game so much. I'm really sad to see that my favorite WW2 video games either got abandoned or ruined over the years. People moved on from Rising storm to Vietnam and other games like HLL. HLL isn't bad but I don't like how big the maps are and movement and guns don't honestly feel as good as RS1. War Thunder - Used to be great WW2 game with great community. But now is suffering from way too many vehicles and nations being in the game. World of Warships - Also a great WW2 game with ships but was ruined by too many additions and stupid ideas.
+Emre Aydın Soviet Union alone had 21 million casualties, how about that? Even though I respect every single sacrifice that was made during World War 2, American one can't be compared to Soviet one, not in any aspect....
+Titan Mind It was their own fault though because they had to use pointless suicide tactics. The casualties would not have been so great without those.
+Applewille That doesn't change the fact that their sacrifice was the greatest. Life that was taken away is invaluable, regardless of the way it was taken or why it was taken.
+Titan Mind i respect German army too... i can't believe German maintain the war 5 years... how do they maintain the war ? they also almost defeat Soviet too. but they were defeated at starlingrad combat, mosov combat... i respect all ww2's sodliers and factions.
Ricardo Gadelha No, you should get punched in the face for not liking this song period, nobody is comparing it to the original theme, the song on its own is magnificent, and took some excellent composing/thought.
Thank you, Rising Storm, for completely turning my Red Orchestra 2 game into some other game that I don't even have. I'm gonna buy this thing because I know I'll enjoy it, but I still think that Tripwire should care about some people not willing to buy it a bit more :)
God it's so sad that no one ever plays this game anymore because of RS2. I love the Pacific theatre aesthetic and as much fun as RS2 is I have never had more fun than going to a Banzai charge from one end of the map to the other. And as you can hear, the music was tight as fuck.
Tojo only took the prime position just before the Pearl Harbour attack and drove the already-prospering empire into a desparate one-way to hell, negating other possible options (of course his predecessors also share that fault). Post-Bismark Germany would make good analogy to Japan after around 1938.
really annoying especially when there's only like 3 servers with a good amount of players and they all show 63/64 then you try to join and they're full xD

"Hello Kai, how are you? I heard you're being sent to Iwo Jima to defend our great nation from our enemy, America. Please come back be okay and come back soon. Your loving friend Sakura." (I made this up guys don't go googling for this letter.
As much as I like this theme, I still like HoS's theme more. There's a greater sense of foreboding and sorrow in it. Oh Hell, and when the choir chimes in... this just isn't the same. Sounds too much like a HBO war drama.
Aye. I'm sad that this theme is practically forced down on us. While the HoS theme still exists, I loved turning on the game and listening to it right away and the old menu too. I wish this merge never happened.
"Server is full" - The Song
Thanks for telling me, AFTER you made me wait to load the map.
LoL haha
+Shlomo Shekelbergenstein i know that feel ;_;
+Shlomo Shekelbergenstein Join as spectator, then join a team =)
it is because some other player joins the map faster than you so you are crowded out
That's because the server client doesn't reserve you the free place while you are loading. Bad design to be honest, but what can you do? :(
when I reach 50-60 years old I will listen to this music again and remember how fun this game is
Nostalgic

I know right. This is as good or better than many famous movie scores.
This track seems to pay tribute to every soldier dead in the war, on every side.

this is straight up beautiful
THIS IS A FUCKING BANGER
This makes me feel like a japanese soldier coming home.Beautiful song good game.
Love how the transition at 2.48 is elaborated. Just plain beautiful.
due to its high quality and emotional appeal, Main Theme is a perfect waterfall generator.
even Astartes would tear drop at 2:40-2:54
Thanks for uploading this.
This song gave me a hope
one of the better intro songs for a game i've ever had the pleasure of listening, too bad its gone...but for a brief time we all had a blast
Listened to this on the train ride from KIX to my hotel the first time i went to Japan
Beautiful
amazing....
Beautiful song
defiantly one of the best game themes! just perfectly captures the grand scope of the pacific theater! could listen to this song for hours!
Masterpiece.
So much feels in one theme song.
2:48, the soldiers with katanas begin charging toward machine guns
Fantastic theme!

Amazing theme and game is amazing as well! :D
