Key Rising Storm 2 gameplay - Everyone on the VC can dig a punji trap which is hilarious, the snipers get tripwire grenades which are deadly in the jungle and the sappers get about a billion MD-82 "Toe poppers" to hide in tunnels.

But the real "prank" tool is the lovely Fougasse, a barrel full of explosives buried in the ground. Its funny when it kills enemies, its funny when it kills teammates, it will often do both as its extremely sensitive to bullets and grenades and has a massive radius.

One of my fondest memories in that game was me and a couple teammates setting up the most obvious punji traps ever with a fougasse between them. And watching as people ran between the punjis only to explode in fire. And we did it again. And again. And again. It never stopped working.

I recently played a game where a guy set a Fougasse on the command bunker on E on Hill, we were about to win on 0 tickets both sides when a friendly threw a grenade and wiped the entire team. Then a few matches later on Mekong the same guy threw a grenade into a bunker on the first two points when we were both at 0 tickets again and won us the game. A true redemption arc.

Sometimes being a reckless dumbass pays off. One of the reasons I loved that game. Wish I could still play it.

Here me out: Tower defense, but it's Vietcong tunnels.

I'd take a regular FPS roller coaster slop where you play as the Vietnamese against US invaders, but it's hard to develop those without US Army funding
