* GrenadeLauncher : The South Vietnames Grenadier class carries the devastating M79 Grenade Launcher, a single fire, break action and unforgettable weapon likely popularized in the film: Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay

* KillItWithFire : The M9A1-7 flamethrower available to southern forces obviously fits this trope, but as if this wasn't enough, the southern team also has access to a massive Napalm strike delivered by supersonic F-4 Phantoms

* Main/JungleWarfare : Similar to the previous game, Videogame/RisingStorm, the majority of matches take place in dense, overgrown tropical jungle environments. There are a few exceptions, however, such as a post-forest fire Hill 937 and a dense urban environment seen in Hue City.

* BoobyTrap : The North Vietnamese forces rely heavily on these for defense. Most soldiers in this faction have the ability to dig a deadly PitTrap in the form of a Punji Trap, with specialists able to set explosive tripwires and mines.

* BayonetYa Bayonets are an option on AK-47 and its variants, SKS, M16, M14, M37, plus a few other weapons. However, with the prevalence of self loading and fully automatic guns in this game, these are less frequently used compared to previous titles in the series.

* AsymmetricMultiplayer: The opposing factions have drastically different weapons available to their respective teams. In addition to this, North Vietnamese forces have flamethrowers, helicopters, napalm strikes, and a traditional "spawn on squad leader mechanic", while South Vietnamese forces are equipped with a plethora of traps, anti air defenses, invisibility to recon while prone, and a new "squad tunnel" spawning mechanic. Despite this difference, the game's matches are surprisingly well balanced.
