Radioman Guide - Rising Storm 2 Vietnam!

Reason why the radioman is better than stationary radios: He’s not stationary

He can say funny things

[@gaiuscaligula2229]

For maximum efficiency as radioman place yourself in an empty squad near the bottom of the squad table to make yourself a squad leader, then you spawn with binoculars and can help the Commander by marking targets instead of just twiddling your thumbs. You also can then speak directly to the commander through the Commander radio channel. This also saves you taking up a slot in an "active" squad that may need all the help it can get capping objectives.

[@TheIndogamer]

Weird thing is that I love being a radioman and a squad member

[@gaiuscaligula2229]

@@TheIndogamer Yeah it's good if there is coordination, My method of making yourself a squad leader whilst playing radioman is more so that you can tail the Commander and also be more useful overall by providing marks/speak to them directly through the commander channel without polluting the side/proximity chat. Which can be dangerous sometimes, I remember marking and calling a napalm in on an enemy commander when my radioman heard his radioman communicating to him over the proximity chat.

[@TheIndogamer]

@@gaiuscaligula2229 I'm not the type of guy that locks the squad inclusivity, so I sometimes really wish I were on the battlements just so my men could spawn closer, instead of spawning behind the Cmd.

sticking with the commander all the time and you'll get highest score. that's what i have learned from radioman lol

[@Rickemann]

Being a radioman is a huge responsibility. When there's a good TL (ho chi mihn) I really enjoy playing it tho. Best commanders communicate a lot but sometimes leave some room for squad leaders to decide how to take objectives. I usually play as a SL and communicate with my squad a lot. Sometimes in Hue City I just tend to support my machinegunners and give good marks on Northern flank. Throw few nades and snipe opposing team with a M16.

[@groth246]

Amazing totorial for the radio man ! Casual and fun walk through, with the occasional murder spree

[@j.w.5510]

My biggest thing is a lot of commanders don't get on the frontlines and that's an extra body to cap points. Playing a frontline commander is a shit ton more fun than playing a desk commander.

[@BunnyBun11]

How is it?

[@gerry4074]

@@BunnyBun11 In the beginning, frustrating because i was rushing a lot so i died a lot. I uninstalled the game and took a break of probably 3 weeks. Came back in, as a second chance and now its been pretty damn fun. Its about been patient i think. As for the radioman, its exactly what the video is explaining. Its been fun for me even as a radioman, just supporting the team and doing a favor to the commander while protecting him. Fun game in short.

[@donc7664]

[@wb8211]

I think it’s worth mentioning that you will come to notice that when you play as radio man you become a priority target in an engagement as killing you will prevent any support being called in so an important rule to follow is to try blend in with grunts in your squad and, where possible, attempt to not put your self in a position where both you and the commander would be in a single players line of fire, hogging cover in an engagement, as if you give an enemy player an opportunity with both the commander and the radio op then you are leaving the rest of your squad mates without the two who, in the right hands, can be the most important to ensure they come out of an engagement on top.

[@tahahormozan]

They could add a feature for radioman to make him more fun He can attempt to find the frequency that enemy is using and get intel from them but it makes him for a while unavailable to use by his own commander and if his commander ask for his assistance but he can’t be available he get negative points

[@quasicroissant]

I don't think that's a good idea, the Radioman role is pretty realistic as is, I don't really think adding gamey elements like that is a good idea

also, perfect video about radioman, and I didn't know the Radioman could pretty much farm points by sitting around like a sloth with the commander drinking a beer

[@lemons1559]

Sometimes I do that. I just find the map radio the safest option and the radioman just sticking with me is a waste of a man. He'll be more useful in the front lines, though it's fun to have a radioman available if you need him.

So was it an intentional change that you only get radio assist points for recon calls now or is it a bug that the devs won't fix? Feels kinda unfair to not get points for 3/4 of the calls.

This is a bug. Usually it will fix if you die/respawn. You are supposed to get +25 for every call a commander makes on your radio.
