Seriously though Easy Red 2 is a lot of fun. It scratches the same itch Enlisted did - simple WW2 run around shoot man game - but it does it with a lot more cool features, actual battle variety and no awful monetisation. By the way, the dev literally updated the game because we asked him to to fix an issue we ran into with Multiplayer, and they also updated the game recently to improve the plane bouncing around problem. Very cool dev, fun game. Give it a try!

The only unrealistic thing about this game is how many soldiers are above the age of 20
God now i see 6 year olds on D-Day
@@NoivesMan We capture the beach, then we can have nap nap
Most of them are like 40 years old
@@izperehoda there were some 50 year olds which is about right for germany in 44

As a german, hearing rimmy horribly misspeak Erika was *exceptionally* funny.
"WE LOVE KIDS! WE LOVE KIDS!" -Rimmy before being dragged off by Aussie police
I love kids Charlie, I LOVE KIIIDDSS!
As someone whom owns the first ‘Easy Red’, this is a surprising leap forward in numerous ways, because their first game was a mess of low poly models and poor textures.
Even the first game was alright, I still had fun and charm like nothing else
Rimmy, the Lancaster SMG was *designed* for airbase guards, but hillariously took so long to procure that the sten was ready by the time they got the Lancasters and so the RAF refused to pay for them, and they went to the Royal navy instead, where they were used in boarding actions, guarding ships at harbour, and prisoner transfer. Not a great war record, but they did see some limited use, and had a 50 round mag and would take any type three Lee-Enfield bayonet, including the old 17 inch 1907 bayonet, which must have been fucking terrifying for both user and enemy in the confined spaces of a ship.
But yeah, fuck enlisted.
Thing is, I'm not sure it was ever actually fired in that role too. Like I've never seen a report saying they actually fired it in a boarding action.
I think it was fired in that role. I recall a story of a German captain swimming out to his UBoat to scuttle it and the British guards firing at him. Granted iirc this was like 43,44, so it was probably Stens or Thompson’s and not a Lancaster but there is a chance.
So as far as I know, the Lanchester was pretty much used extensively in one specific battle: The Landings on D-Day by the Special Service Brigades, aka the Royal Commandos and Royal Marine Commandos. I'm mostly familiar with the Canadian Commandos, there's a photo of a Canadian Commando carrying the chonker in 1944, but if requested I can try to send more documentation for the British on Sword and Gold Beach. However, this is pretty much in line with the janky ass equipment that the Commandos received, with things like M1928 Thompsons with Drum Mags heading into Normandy, the commander of the 1st Special Service Brigade carrying an M1 Carbine, etc.
@@2ltsierra417 Yeah, handing out random janky stuff to the commandos and just leaving them to it was for a long time a proud tradition across the commonwealth. I wasn’t aware they used Lancaster’s at D-Day, but frankly it wouldn’t surprise me.
Is it Lancaster or Lanchester?

Rimmy Downunder: You dare use my own spells against me?
should have installed a bolt pistol onto his fighter
But did he use iron sights?
@@RenagadeGam3r i mean thats the onl: thing they had back then for SMGs
@@iplaygames8090 The joke is that Rimmy is really amazingly good at shooting down aircraft, with small arms, *without* using iron sights. Alarmingly good.
I happened to find this randomly on Steam a few weeks back. No regrets in purchasing it.
Same here
Awesome! I'm part of the team for Easy Red 2. I'm so glad you guys enjoyed this game. We're going to be doing a full rework of the game and all of it's assets, including new fully destructible buildings and eventually a DLC for a Stalingrad campaign.
Whoaaaa. Is that coming to Switch too?! I can’t wait for the Switch release. Please take good care of the Switch port... because Switch has no other games like this on it. It could be extremely successful, no joke. I’ll be buying it on Day 1. No doubt. 😎
Also, will the map maker be available for the Switch version? Dude, it would be SO KILLER to be able to make custom maps on Switch.
Stalingrad DLC is a sole reasone why i brough it.
It is so cool that this game made by one guy(yes, one dev) is being recognised. This is a passion project for the Dev and it shows.
I bought it a month back and its really fun and cheap and I highly recomend if you what a sandbox ww2 game.
Edit: I forgot to say that the game is updated weekly and it is going to have a Eastern Front DLC soon!
That's amazing.
One guy? What a mad lad.
He has been having a team for months so it's not one man show.
@@singularityraptor4022 I didn't know that...
It's cool that he isn't doing all the work now.
Damn at 5:30 the in-game music is an actual Italian "war" song, "Il Piave Mormorava", about WW1. That's great attention to detail
Yeah, the dev wanted to add an italian victory song that didn't have the kinds of "political connotations" like Giovinezza does.
@@TheKingOfJordan1 The dev himself is Italian :D
@@TheKingOfJordan1 And then they turned around and said "Fuck it, Erika is a bop. I don't care!!"
@@Sky_Guy To be fair, in Gioninezza it praises Fascism, while Erika is simply a marching song about a girl picking berries back home.
The dude who sniped Leo out of the cockpit needs a medal XD
"TENNO HEIKA BACKWARDS!" XD
reminds me of the frst scene of flight of the intruder where after a bombing mission they are flying low altitude to avoid being picked up by radar and a vietnamese farmer with a mosin nagant takes a pot shot at them and hits the bombardier-navigator in the neck. Small arms ground fire just needs to get extremely lucky on unarmored aircraft.

Red Sun OST *INTENSIFIES!*
Little correction:Red Sun is the name of the song, I think you mean MGR OST.
@@jackhammertwo1 "OST" can also refer to a specific version of a song.
7:59 i did some quick research and the Lanchester Submachine gun was mainly used in the commonwealth navies more so then airfield defence
Rimmy: flies a prop plane vertically up
Also rimmy: "My plane just stopped"
I find it a cool touch that it gives a name to every otherwise identical character you play as
I’ve been following Easy red since the original, which looked like a Roblox game that had been ported into unity, and I loved it. Got easy red 2 as soon as I saw it up and have been pleasantly surprised by just how good it is. Really blows enlisted out of the water. My favourite thing is the on map artillery, I made a little mission and placed a battleship thinking it would be decorative until it’s guns turned and started pounding the beach. Easy Red 2 is fun.
The battleship was offended that you thought it was a decorative piece
I'm surprised you played this. I've followed the dev for a while, bought his first Easy Red, bought Easy Red 2. Awesome game, awesome dude. I'm in the Discord as well.
I'm still not sure if he put some of the things from the first Easy Red into the second but the first game, if you got hit in the helmet, it had thr possibility of the helmet deflecting it and also the helmet flying off your head, and you could pick it back up and put it back on as well. And I love how the artillery and coordinates work in the second game.
He did put it. The game kinda expanded on inventory too.
The dev is super nice. He literally updated the game because we were having connection issues in MP. Like hotfixed it while we were playing. Insanely cool dude.
@@RimmyDownunder Yep and he just released a beta update today with destruction and new houses
I prefer the graphics of enlisted. But i hate the microtransactions
Theyre planning a full graphical rework just so u know : )
Grafics dont mean shit
they're getting rid of the microtransactions, kinda. the new campaign is gonna be a limited access for free and more stuff for a one time purchase type thing.
If graphics mean so much to you, go watch tv
i can't get a new gpu to run full graphics on new games
lets hope the 4070 or 4080 is in stock unlike the 30s card launch or maybe the stories are true and amd truly does have better cards then the 4070 or the 4080 only time will tell
At last, Rimmy feels what it's like to be on the other side of small-arms AA
Rimmy, you got me on board just with the title thanks for actually being interested in stuff like italian soldiers, thanks Rimmy
with all due respect, but i just personally don't like all the sound effects added by the editor, rimmy's videos have almost never had sound effects as far as i remember and no real transitions either (unless we are talking about the intros to arma fusterclucks)
finally someone address this, the amount of unnecessary sound effect or that meme kind of ruined the video
Thank you for the feedback. We definitely learned the lesson from the previous work and have since adjusted our style. Sorry about that!
It's a shame what gyjin had done to enlisted, but thanks for the replacement idea
Yup ER2 is a great alternative, 8 USD and you have everything unlocked for historical accuracy
Vanoss Gaming tier editing
The game had big upgrades ever since this video was uploaded. Would love to see more multi-player gameplays like this.
2018 called, they want their editing back
Love ur videos btw
I don't know what "Italians" are, so I'm not sure if this game is accurate.
If you like spaghetti and garlic bread, thank the Italians, basically.
Alternatively, Europe wears a boot. That boot, and the leg, is Italy, home of the Italians. The tortilla chip it's kicking is Sicily, home of the almost Italians.
@@Danganraptor As an Italian I'm pretty sure garlic bread it's a typical American thing and not Italian. Never heard of it here. Like spaghetti with meatballs and others.
@@Thedoctv I pretty much just went with the stereotypical Italian foods, also known as "what I'd imagine would come up first when you look up 'what food is Italy known for?'"
@@Thedoctv According to wikipedia, "Garlic bread stems from bruschetta, which appeared in Italy around the 15th century, and can be traced back to Ancient Rome."
Spaghetti is also reported as coming from Italy, but I didn't look into any of the sources for either entry.
@@Danganraptor Oh I didn't know that, I always thought it was an American thing. While the spaghetti thing I specifically meant the plate of spaghetti with whole meatballs in it
Expecting Enlisted to be fun and realistic considering what Gaijin has done with War Thunder is honestly hilarious coming from that game
I haven't played for a while but I remember Enlisted actually being pretty fun and realistic. What did they do to ruin it? (I stopped playing just before Pacific stuff came out)
@@sam8404 I'm not saying Enlisted is entirely unrealistic (although I haven't played it so I'm not entirely sure about how bad it is). But I AM saying that War Thunder (Gaijin's other IP) used to also be a "fun and realistic game" a while back. But now, 1-off prototype vehicles and even a very small number of vehicles that never even existed aren't all too uncommon. Your teammates, enemies, and fighting locations are basically decided at random (like France, Imperial Japan, China, and Sweden Vs. Nazi Germany, Great Britain, and Israel in an American Desert). And playing in certain vehicles can have you facing enemies made 15 or 20 years after yours (like a Korea-era Sabre with cannons fighting a transonic 1970s jet that has afterburners, Radar Warning Receiver, flares and chaff, AND a pair of missiles capable of traveling up to mach 3 and making 35g turns). I imagine it's only a matter of time before Enlisted finds itself falling down the same slippery slope.
Enlisted is ok but it’s so grindy and very clunky as far as movements and etc. controller key binds can be better. I’d say cuisine royale (the BR version) is more fun in my opinion.
I'm not sure whether its just me or not but some of the subtitles put in by the editor feel off, an example being when talking about warpugs, the editor put in subtitles only for that part, im unsure whether that was requested by you or not but it felt that it didn't need to be there and was only put in for a piece of context that didn't feel needed, overall though, enjoyed the editing but it definitely had a different feel to it compared to the videos with you editing it/your original editor if you had one.
Turns out they changed where the lanchester is in enlisted. Its not even in the same campaign, and its the 3rd or 4th unlock in said campaign. Seemed they realised how dumb it was being the last unlock in Normandy.
damn, really? that was honestly the funniest thing to me. The ultimate weapon unlock being a gun no-one has heard of and was pretty much never used.
100% Sure Rimmy Is One Of The Voices Of A Soldier If You Play As The NZAC
This game is fun as hell on Switch, plus it's literally the only switch game I've seen that stays up to date with its PC counterpart.
Thanks to that guy with an SMG, Rimmy now knows how it feels to be on the recieving end of his small-arms AA fire in Arma.
(it has Italians) Alright, I'm in. I'M COMING MAB 38 MY BABY
I grabbed this game after BigFryTV made a video panning it early on. I thought he was being overly harsh and kind of a prick so I tried it out and honestly, for the money, it’s a fun little game. I even left the only Steam review I’ve ever made recommending it lol
Bought this way back, thought it was bad, came back and it had become awesome. Glad to see you play it
the Italians will switch sides but GOD HELP YOU when they do
Especially if they switch to your side.
felt like the video was edited differently because of the humour and stuff and I was right.
wanted to check out the new editor and his twitter is just full of NFT shilling...
Edit: just got to the end of the video and and the put a meme of "save the planet" HAHHAHAHA I can't fucking even
A Zero with a Spitfire cockpit sounds like heaven to me.
hey!
🇮🇹 Fratelli, d'Italia!
L'Italia, s'è desta!
Dell' elmo di Scipio,
s'é cinta la testa! 🇮🇹
The only warcrime i noticed was Rimmy trying to sing...
bought this game on release, saw a review shitting on it on youtube but I know this game had potential, now happy someone is giving it a good review and happy for the devs too
The mortars work if a squad leader calls in artillery, a marker will appear with the distance, you then align the scope with the direction and the correct distance and fire away.
I was expecting you to pick this up though since it’s been released past EA and I’m glad you got a video recently. This game is 10 times better than Enlisted and the dev is really open with customer communication and weekly updates plus the added sandbox and map & mission editor for creative and workshop. To top it all off it’s cheap and less demanding in the spec as well as not P2W.
So thanks for covering this in your latest vid.
I was in a public library when Rimmy started screaming “I like kids”
glad to see this game getting some love, i played it and the first version years ago
I downloaded the game based off what I saw here, and honestly, it's an absolute blast. Though I have to say it was absolutely jarring to hear Rimmy's voice yell at me when playing the Aussies.
I would get this in a few days and had doubts about getting it. Then I see every start posting about Red 2. Your video made me buy the game now
Glad to see you making a video on this game. It's really good and makes me feel like i was playing some of those good old WW2 games like the earlier CoDs and MoH
MoH... My god, I can hear the first game's music all over again
This if my favourite FPS. Just awesome challenging gameplay all through out, huge maps, level editor with endless workshop missions and is single player focused so I don't have to worry about dead servers :)
I mean, any game is better than Enlisted. This might visually look worse but I bet it plays better
And when people say "looks worse", I hear "I will actually be able to play this game at more than three frames per second".
"Better than enlisted"
Setting the bar low today are we?
He isn't wrong tho
Honestly this game is really great, even when it first released. Glad I found it quite early, Honhonhon.
I'm not going to complain too much about the editing as per the description, I'll just say that this new editor really needs to go back to square one and figure out what makes a Rimmy video a Rimmy video, cause it sure as hell isn't random "meme" edits and audio from a Fortnite channel. These two vids seriously makes me doubt this new editor even went through the effort to do so in the first place.
I'm glad people are speaking on the editing, because it lets me know what changes need to be made. However, this video was actually edited BEFORE the SCP video, so the feedback from that wasn't included in this edit. It just happened that the SCP video was scheduled to release before this one. I hope the newer edits from the company work better, as this is a major step in relieving me from the constant pressure of editing to let me work on bigger edits like the False Flag video etc.
@@RimmyDownunder i hope this is just a copy paste response as I think I made it clear that I had read the description and was referencing the SCP video.
My real "worry" is about this new editor making seemingly no effort in studying and replicating your style, I'd be kinda pissed personally if I hired someone to help me with editing only to find out they didn't do their homework at all. Hope this is a wakeup call for them and that your future cooperation will turn out better, good luck!
I reccomend checking the game again
It has gone through so much changes, new factions, uniform overhauls, new weapons, overhauled almost all animations, and maps
👆
that gibberish version of Erika hurt me physically
I played the first game and holy shit has this gone far
Try realistic difficulty and max ai on campaigns. Guaranteed a fight to the death
Putting "It has italians" made It 5 times funnier to me lmao
But its true, most WW2 games forget about Italiana and polish, they we're important too!
yeah people under estimate this game, this inspired me to play this again
Dunno 'bout this one chief, bit much on the editing side.
And that is... not a compliment.
This editor throwing in every unfunny zoomer meme humanly possible, it's almost impressive
Was gonna say the same thing. Hated the “woosh” transitions and shit
Checked the description. This is the editor’s first edit, the other being the SCP:CB Multiplayer video which is much better. So while this one is a bit more cringe and less Rimmy-esque. Glad to say that they’re taking on the feedback Rimmy’s giving them and getting alot better
4:40 Rimmy fighting Trigger's great granddad
I'm glad you enjoy it and don't let the graphics steer you off.
Game get's even better, now game receives a total animation overhaul
nice video but there's a lot of unnecessary sound effect in the edit
I dislike the blurry transitions.
I kept reading "plane refilled and repaired" as "plane red-pilled and reported"
Enlisted has Italians though so I'm not sure why you pointed that out.
Also when's the command and conquer videos coming out rimmy?
It has better Italians, SS Italians and ally Italians xD
oh and the first mission they were playing in the video is based on a Greek island called Kos.
2:25 Rimmy got Rimmy-ed
Getting massive blue balls rn not seeing the score of that last round. Always love a nailbiter that gets the blood pumping!
It's already better than Enlisted, due to not being published by Gaijin :p
A game so good I bought it several times for me and my friends shill it anywhere I go
We have WWII FPS with vehicles that have italians, we have the ones portraying Battle of France and Winter War. And yet people notice only Battlefield and CoD. Maybe it's not WWII shooters who are a problem?
It’s full of bugs but goddamn it’s good when it doesn’t bug
Please make another video on this game its improved so much
I'm a little bit concerned how much was Rimmy enjoying playing for powers of axis and meat grinding Americans with MG... :D
This is good played this game many times during Early Access and had tons of fun 👍
I knew you were a man of culture and I'm glad you havent given up
nobody probably asked for my opinion. but personally the editing feels a bit too normy. like its a funny pewdiepie video (or maybe not idk haven't watched him in a long time)
10:38 I've read that guy was mistaken. The amount of people he said he killed was higher than the amount of deaths on his sector of the beach (not to mention it would have required a ton of ammo, so much so that he would wear out all the barrels for his mg). I don't think he was lying, it was probably just a very traumatic memory that, in his mind, made it seem like he killed far more than he did.
Finally he plays the game. I knew he'd like it🤣
There’s nowt wrong with the Lanchester, it takes the 1907 pattern bayonet, your opinion is invalid. At some point a kriegsmarine waster would have surrendered to a RN sailor with a literal sword attached to his submachine gun and that makes be proud to be British.
I saw this on steam, was hesitant but now this makes me want to get it thanks
I bought this game because of this video and I really like it.
Man that games give me a ww2 vibes the best where all factions are being shown more than the major
Why tf is this edited like vine is still a thing? It's like you hired ben shapiro's editor
Because of this video and a well timed steam sale I got this game.
5:47 Why was there a rimshot? There was no pun...
Sure was a lot of wacky sound effects. Game looks like everything I've been looking for though. And holy shit it's cheap.
Sound effects are getting updated as the dev said. Not all sounds are updated yet so its a little wonky rn :D
ayo never thought someone would make a viedo about this game
At 2:37 rimmy getting a taste of his own medicine
yes this game finnaly is alive
I've played this game before and I agree that it's way better than enlisted. But I don't remember there being an Omaha campaign. Is it a new campaign or is it a custom campaign?
There is a built-in map maker in the game where people make maps and missions then upload them to Steam Workshop which is a cool feature.
Speaking of Enlisted recently had a match in the Berlin campaign where the my team (USSR) stormed the final point in overtime and won
lmao no wonder people hate enlisted
ooh arcadey ww2 looks fun
It is the opposite of arcady compared to Enlisted
But the graphics looks simpler that is why you thought so
@@Russell970 wtf makes enlisted arcady, and this one not arcady ?
@@HaartieeTRUE It looks arcady but it has much more complex stuff in the game. You can die very fast in "realistic" difficulty and the a.i actually works as a team. Not hating Enlisted tho. It is a good game in its own right.
4:40 what fighting a fruit fly feels like
I think I picked this up because it was $5 and it has co-op.
I expected terrible, and ended up with one of my new favorite shooters. It's like call of duty 2 got a bunch of modern features and some... almost decent squad AI.
As an Italian I am happy
finally I can be at peace
lmao
God this game looks impressive for 8 bucks
