The American’s have the apparent advantage in firepower with their fast firing semi-automatic rifles, fully automatic weapons, and devastating flamethrower. Rising Storm also introduces an entirely new type of gameplay to the franchise - asymmetrical warfare. The player is able to take the part of either side – American or Japanese – battling it out online in multiplayer on up to 64-player servers. Players will experience beach assaults, jungle fighting, close quarters night fighting and more across Guadalcanal, Iwo Jima and Saipan, among other iconic battles.
The game will allow the player to fight across iconic locations from the famous island-hopping campaigns in the Pacific from 1942 to 1945, as the US Army and Marine Corps fight it out with the Imperial Japanese army and Special Naval Landing Forces. You know the great gameplay, innovative features and realistic audio and graphics of RO2 - Rising Storm will take this to the Pacific Theater, adding even more features, new levels, new weapons and new factions. For his work in designing the PPSh-41 and the DShK heavy machine gun, Georgy Shpagin was awarded the Stalin Prize, 2nd class, in 1941 and the title of Hero of Socialist Labour in September of 1945.Rising Storm is the next game in the award-winning Red Orchestra franchise. The PPSh-41 would later be replaced by the PPS-43 which was even faster to manufacture and cheaper to produce.
The Wehrmacht officially adopted these converted PPSh-41s as the MP41(r). The German Army would also institute a program to convert the weapon to the standard German submachine gun cartridge, 9mm Parabellum. These captured PPSh-41s were given the designation MP717(r) and supplied with the 7.63x25mm Mauser round which was conveniently similar in size to the Soviet 7.62x25mm Tokarev. Throughout the war, it was not uncommon for German soldiers to pick up and use abandoned PPSh-41s on the battlefield. The gun featured very loose tolerances, required very little maintenance, and as a result was known to be reliable in the face of cold weather or dirt-qualities well suited for the conditions of the eastern front. Towards the end of World War 2, entire companies in infantry regiments would be outfitted solely with PPSh machineguns. Over 6 million PPSh submachine guns were manufactured. The weapon was widely produced and distributed among soldiers in the Red Army. Its simple blowback operated action and open bolt firing mechanism could achieve rates of fire of up to 900 rounds per minute. The PPSh also had the distinction of being the first Soviet small-arm to utilize stamped and welded parts. The PPSh-41 used fewer parts and could be manufactured much faster than its predecessors. Only the barrel required a specialized labor however, an M1891 Mosin–Nagant rifle cut in half was often substituted. The parts of the weapon were designed to be produced by a relatively unskilled workforce with simple equipment. Like its predecessor, the PPSh-41 chambers the Soviet 7.62x25mm Tokarev round. The PPSh-41 would become the staple automatic weapon of the Red Army during the Second World War. The PPSh-41 was designed by Georgy Semyonovich Shpagin as a cheaper and simpler replacement for the PPD-34/38 and PPD-40, the former being the first submachine gun officially adopted by the Soviet military. By switching firemode(6) you can engage enemies from a considerable distance given it's a PPSH and manage to gain kills.Ĭommander Historical and Factual Information Once the PPSH-41 has reached level 50 something coined by the community named "PPSH Sniping" becomes possible. By default, the PPSh-41 is issued with a 35 round box magazine and is unable to switch to single fire mode.
This deficiency is partially mitigated by the ability to fire rounds in single shot mode. The weapon's high rate of fire and large magazine count makes it excel at close quarters combat however, the high recoil leads to poor performance at long range. The PPSh-41 chambers the standard Soviet pistol and submachine gun cartridge, the 7.62x25mm (Tokarev).
The PPSh-41 (Pistolet-Pulemyot Shpagina) is a submachine gun used by the Allies in Red Orchestra 2: Heroes of Stalingrad.
