Title: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: GeoPat on 04-02-2015, 01:02:39

(http://bfewaw.com/campaigns/waw31/promo/WarInPacific.png)

Come and join our joint endeavour to experience a different FH2 on a new theatre: The Pacific War! Over half a dozen maps and new vehicles await you! Replay the grand battles of history: Iwo Jima, Guadalcanal, Midway, Wake Island, Invasion of the Phillipines!
Find yourself in a Yamato- or King-George-V-Class Battleship as shipmen and have a thrilling fight against the enemy fleet, submarines or a tremendous amount of enemy fighter planes! Only with the right amount of teamwork you will be able to get your hands on the strategically important and highly contested atolls in the middle of the pacific!






Every Saturday for the next few weeks, starting at 19:00 (UTC) , World at War, Forgotten Honor and 762ranking invite you to join this semi-public campaign. On the server, you will find a good amount of players, already organized in divisons, hosted by both tournament communities.
You can either choose to casually join this campaign and simply play with us by joining one of the ingame squads, OR, immerse further into this campaign and sign up for one of the both sides:

• The 3rd Marine Divison hosted by World at War, gallantly led by Hiltz.
  
• The 2nd Imperial Guards Divison hosted by Forgotten Honor, gallantly led by Erwin.

Sign-Up for the FH2 Public Campaign "War in the Pacific" are now open:

We've improved things a little bit and now we are going to play it in an organized faction.  Pubbies are welcome to sign up or just pop in and join a squad.

You can lead your own squad today.  When the campaign starts you will probably have to join someone elses squad but you don't have to sign up.

Incidentally, sign ups will be open in the next day or two

 Well, the map Iwo Jima looks cool enough, but there are many bugs.

- Allied tanks stuck in mud

- No allied pickup kits (they apparently use jap kits)

- VOIP is turned off.

You must register with waw & join their TS server.


Ridiculous, but i love the effort to TRY to put this together.

You can play without registering. You can join WaW TS if you want, but you don't have to.

I think I figured out your player name.

We had a bit of a hiccup today.  It was not on the intended server, thus no VOIP.

The pickup kits switch between Axis and Allies like many stock maps. You have to pickup the Axis kit, put it down and the Allied will appear in its place, standard BF2 to you new guys.

The mud fix didn't make the deadline but will for the scrim.  Pubbies taking part in the campaign don't have to join TS though it will be repeatedly encouraged.  You will be able to use teamchat, squadchat, and VOIP.  Allchat will result in kicks and general ranting will get one banned.  Other than that it will be simple.

Had some good fun, but the Japs got their asses handed over three times in a row so they mass disconnected oin Guadal, resulting in 9 Allied players and 2 Japs. Sad to see it end like that  :(

Cool.

 My main argument was VOIP really. The 1st map looked really good with the dark brooding ambiance.

Perhaps  the communication information needs should be in the original advertised post next go around. Typing is redundant,cumbersome & will get your squad  killed.

 Connecting/Registering with WAW TS without knowledge of IPs,where to go ect is confusing/time consuming for new players & annoying for others.

I am just trying to help as i understand this was a test.

When you are ready, ill try again......

Seriously dude, we just didn't have the maps loaded onto 762 server at that time.  a few hours later(after everyone left) it got done.

It is now on 762 #3 PMC Campaign Test  VOIP all you like.

Please end VOIP rant.

As for the Public Campaign, we only ask that you join a squad and cooperate.  It's not pratical to lead a squad and not be in TS as VOIP unlike Mumble does not allow squads to coordinate. 

BTW, you don't need to register to go on WaW TS3, its: ts.bfewaw.com 
Forgotten Honor is:  ts1.forgottenhonor.com 

Hopefully we will have a better event Sunday.
We appreciate everyone's help.  However, we are not morons and observations of the obvious are not necessary.  We know that there is still a lot to be done.

The Allied hidroplane:when you press Shift and free view,and when you look behind as many as you can,you can see that back side of plane is missing and you see sea(altough when you are looking plane on F10 you see it completly),so bug?

Are these planes taken from BF1942?If they are,as ships,it is almost nothing new of velichles.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think there are no new vehicles and static models at all, they are all imported from bf1942 / FH1. Dunno about soldier models, but AFAIK japanese weapons are also donated by one of FH2 devs.

EDIT:
oh wait, some japanese tanks weren't imported from FH1, somebody else donated them?

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: Ts4EVER on 14-02-2015, 01:02:08

AFAIK most of the new models were bought from some modelling website.

After all these years, this Pacific pack finally completes the game. The Imperial Japanese army, marines, and navy is great, but even better is the full naval component for FH that's been missing since it was ported over to BF2, the final piece to the puzzle that was the amazing balance between fun, scope, and challenge which made FH 1 the best game any of us ever played. Full stop.

The depth added to the game is actually astounding -- whole new layers of gameplay come to life somewhere between the full inclusion of naval units and the dramatic landscapes that maps in this theater tend to play out on. Everyone I talked to also agrees that some magic happens, bringing you straight back to the fondest memories of FH (and even BF42) and that bit of je ne sais quois many always felt FH2 was often lacking (as great as it is), is suddenly there.

It's lurking in the jungle thickets, palms sweating on the hilt of a katana, or the damp stock of a Springfield. It's diving over a jagged mountain peak, flora strafed full of 20mm holes, adrenaline screaming from Arisaka nades and muzzle-fired smoke bombs. It's puking over the side of a PT boat that's speeding over the waves toward death by torpedo, blue skies reflecting off the barrels of 18 inch guns.

It should be gone over thoroughly by the dev team to make sure spawns are proper, flags are in order, etc, then adjusted for an integrated release, and included as soon as humanly possible in an official capacity. The event on saturday was a brilliant time, I'm just sorry I couldn't stay more than 3 hours.

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: Flippy Warbear on 24-02-2015, 19:02:07

It's not the same.

For me the best part of any pacific map in 0.7 that had LCT's in them was bringing the tanks to shore while zero's strafed you and your gunners were firing at them like madmen.

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign

AFAIK that is not possible with BF2 physics.

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: Ronson on 24-02-2015, 19:02:15

Blast, missed it. The Pacific was always my favourite theatre in FH1 because that combination of land, sea and air gave battles such a huge, epic feel, especially on maps like the second version of Midway. I think young Dago is spot on about naval combat being the missing piece of the puzzle. It might be slightly buggy in FH2 - it was pretty buggy in FH1 too - but it's also a hell of a lot of fun.

What I did get to play recently was the WaW Kefalonia map from the 762 pack, which captures a lot of that old spirit. When I spawned on a fully-manned Italian torpedo boat I was grinning like it was 2005. We had all guns blazing, fighting off air attacks, drive-by shooting the island and hunting the destroyer... awesome.

Doesn't this attitude harm FH2 rather than help it? It makes sense that the devs want to produce a finely polished package where everything is well tested, historically accurate and so on, but I've never understood what harm rolling some of the best custom maps into the installer would do. You slap a big 'BETA' or 'Community Map' label all over them so it's clear they're not 'official content', and then leave it to the servers and the popular vote to decide whether or not to include them in rotation.

Would the small FH2 community really be so appalled to have some of these non-official maps in rotation (some of which are really very good indeed)? People endlessly bitch about and criticise the official maps anyway so it's not like you can please all of the players all of the time as it stands. Especially at this stage of FH2's life it would be good to have the variety and fun these maps offer, without having to have all-or-nothing special events and split up the playing community for an evening. Seems such a shame to have all this great content created and barely used.

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: Matthew_Baker on 24-02-2015, 20:02:35

I didn't get to play this but I've downloaded the old version of the maps and had a few runarounds with them. It's REALLY well done for a small team to come up with an army like that and port over all these maps, I think I've said it somewhere before. Good job everyone.

I don't think it would hurt to think about this being worked on officially. Obviously there's a part of the fan base that enjoys this and it would be wrong to ignore them. However, I don't think it will happen for some time. The devs are rightfully focused on the Eastern Front, and after that, polishing/ (slightly) expanding the Eastern Front and after that who knows. Splitting time between working on East Front and polishing up a whole new Pacific Front will only slow things down imo. Maybe this can be thought about after the devs finish their goals in Russia.

I'll have to re-download these new maps and look at them tho. The last release seemed really cool 8)

As fun as it is to watch beta testers speculate like they know what is going on, I think it might be time to bring some truth into this thread.
First of all: It is true, there are no plans at all to include the pacific maps in the launcher. Why?

When a map is released through the launcher, we take responsibility for it, for maintaining it, fixing bugs and making sure it is of good quality. As you may have noticed, we don't even have enough manpower to do this properly for all the official maps.
That being said, we are happy to include any custom map that has a high quality and does not require us to do much work on it. The thing with these pacific maps (at least the ones I have seen) is that while they are better than most custom maps, they are also done in a completely different style from modern FH2 maps. These are BF1942 maps and it shows. They are extremely scaled and unrealistic in their style. Imagine somebody would have made a 1:1 remake of BF1942 Omaha Beach before ours was released. Would you have liked that in the official game? And the pacific maps are all on that level, basically, with the fantasy bunkers and the scaled terrain etc.
Secondly, where do these assets come from? I don't know all the goings on, but afaik many of them were bought from modeling stores. This is fine of course, but FH2 has never included ready made 3d assets like that and is not about to start. There is a certain reputation to lose here.
Thirdly, there is the question of historical accuracy. You may laugh that off, but I am not talking about minor things here, but ships that are completely out of place or Japanese troops running around with smgs that would only warrant pickup kit status by FH2 standards. Again, this is not a question of quality, but of fitting in with the rest of the content and maintenance.
On top of that, including these maps and releasing them through the launcher is not as easy as you might imagine and would probably set back Eastern Front development by at least a month, and that is conservative.
So in conclusion: These will stay as map packs.

Yeah, I have to agree that FH1 maps were simply better, more epic than FH2 ones...

Anyway, I dont get all this cry why these maps wont be implemented where there is only one active server which keeps this mod alive and where its admins showed that if they want, they can force/encourage players to play custom maps successfully. Obviously there are 2 great tournament communities who are responsible for creating these maps, so they also add sth extra to this mod.

And I think majority of players dont care so much of historical accuracy unless there 's KT in Africa...

First ,nice explation Ts totaly agree.
Second my favourite thing is history acuration.Imagine 5 Stukas enormus number of MP40 or Tompsons..That would be not for lauging ,not for crying..With acuration you can feel like part of history,and I dont think mayority of players are because of fun.They are looking history teamwork. Fun mod is good for 5 months or year but later nothing.

There is no reason to have this debate now, IMO.  The devs do need to work on the Eastern Front.  The tournament communities can continue to polish this stuff up and allow the public to enjoy it.  After Eastern Front they can look at including the Pacific and some maps if they want to.  There are more historical and FH1 based maps planned for the near future.  Some are entirely land-based. These blast from the past maps are just to give people a taste for the mod.  Historical weapons/equipment loadouts are just a quick edit of the code, BTW.

Oh, damn.  No debate?!?!

Well, it's nice to see all the kind words about the Pacific map pack.  I like the point about the fun factor.  In our map test Saturday on the WaW server, I was getting all nostalgic about FH1 days of action packed maps and hours and hours of entertaining gameplay.  It helped to have big numbers back then.  Of course, putting out this Pacific content is helping with numbers.  I heard and read very much positive feed back during and after the event on Saturday.

We have a Scrim on the maps this Saturday starting about 1900 UTC.  It is planned for the FHT and/or 762 big servers.  Pubbies are welcome, so check it out.  In fact, if you like it you can keep coming each Saturday.  Either sign-up at WaW or FHT to be officially part of a team or just show up and get on a team for the day.

 They should also implement the Kamikazi Kit:

- 1 Hachimaki (Rising Sun Bandana)
- 1 cup of Saké (just because, why not)
- 1 Nambu Pistol (for instant suicide instead of capture) a bit redundant :)
- 1 Senninbari (Thousand stitch belt)
- 1 Death Poem
- 1 Kamikaze Dirk (suicide knife) Geez these guys were serious



Ceremonies were carried out before kamikaze pilots departed on their final mission. The Kamikaze shared ceremonial cups of sake or water known as "mizu no sakazuki". Many Army officer Kamikaze took their swords with them, while the Navy pilots (as a general rule) didn't carry swords in their planes. The kamikaze, like all Japanese aviators flying over unfriendly territory, were issued (or purchased if they were officers) a Nambu pistol with which to end their lives if they risked being captured. Like all Army and Navy servicemen, the Kamikaze would wear their senninbari, a "belt of a thousand stitches" given to them by their mothers.[45] They also composed and read a death poem, a tradition stemming from the samurai, who did it before committing seppuku. Pilots carried prayers from their families and were given military decorations. The Kamikaze were escorted by other pilots whose function was to protect the Kamikaze to their destination and report on the results. Some of these escort pilots, such as Zero pilot Toshimitsu Imaizumi, were themselves later sent out on their own Kamikaze missions.




You guys are doing a great job with this & i assume it will only get better.

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: Matthew_Baker on 08-03-2015, 02:03:23

I actually got a chance to play! :D not bad stuff. I had 2 rounds of Guadalcanal and a round of Iwo Jima with like 30 players.

Guadalcanal was fun, it really brought me back to the BF1942 days, raiding the shores with boats, bombing runs from a Betty etc..

Ultimately the experience was nice to feel nostalgic again. The gameplay was fun and balanced (as is expected on a 1:1 BF1942 map remake) and it played like the original Guadalcanal did.

In the end it's not the gameplay that attracts me tho, it's the immersion factor, so I can't see myself playing it day in and day out like regular FH2.

All in all it's an awesome effort.  8) You can't miss fun gameplay with a tried and tested BF1942 maps so it's nice every once in a while to break up the maps we've been playing for years.

Are you guys looking for feedback on this?
In terms of minor bugs my FPS drops like a Lead Zeppelin when I'm in the middle of the map on Guadalcanal. Admittedly I've had to lobotomize my PCs RAM because some of it was corrupt but in comparison with FH2 maps it lags quite a bit and kinda breaks gameplay from time to time.

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: Melvin on 08-03-2015, 21:03:37

I'm sure the mappers would like feedback.

I know that often these custom maps (conversions or otherwise) do not always have the optimization that standard FH2 maps often (always?) receive.  That is, frame lag seems to occur more often on custom maps than the finely produced standard FH2.  Same for frame rate.  One solution is for the mapper to reduce the number of objects.  Mappers know more about this than me.

Although, I used to have frame lag on Operation Totalize and one other FH2 map.  It was due to the low amount of video memory on my old graphics card.  The lag was due to video swapping with my PC's main memory fairly often and at that point I would have the lag.  A new card with much more memory solved that problem; no more swapping.  I have no problems with lag or rate on my 8 year old PC with it's modern graphics card (urh, it's 3 years old, now).

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: Ts4EVER on 08-03-2015, 22:03:34

I ran the pacific maps through one of our dev tools and I doubt the lag is due to static objects. They load way less textures than standard FH2 maps. My guess: vegitation.

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: 0utlaw on 08-03-2015, 22:03:11

the undergrowth in a few maps are still a wip which is the reason for some of the fps drop areas. however i have never experienced lag while playing yet.

A nice thing to note would be to make the slightly altered server rules a bit more clear. As in making them known on the DL link or in this thread; just somewhere where it'll be seen easily. Even I was a bit confused when I saw people could get kicked for using a ship or vehicle that the organized squads 'called' ahead of time.

I'm not saying I have a problem with the rule; but as a casual public player who's reads more and visits FH related sites more than the average FHer, even I somehow missed the memo that some people had priority over vehicles etc..

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: Melvin on 15-03-2015, 00:03:44

Matthew_Baker, I think the only rule related to equipment use is that the leaders of the teams can dictate who uses their side's equipment.  I don't think the rules get down to much more detail about that.

On the WaW team, we didn't dictate too much.  I think we would only punish if there was a smacktard in control of an important asset like a ship.  I don't think we had anyone like that but I didn't play the last round of the day.  We certainly prefer one of the sign-up WaW people to at least drive the ship, but that's about it.  We did have some Pubbies try it and I think they did their best, so no problem... although, I did post to a guy about the need to "cross the T" in an engagement between two big ships.  :D  Had we been losing the day, (no matter which map side we played), then our team's leadership may have been more particular.  But that situation didn't happen today. ;)

I only played one round towards the end of the day but I remember someone got kicked for it. (I'll also make it clear it wasn't a kick out of the blue, they were warned a few times beforehand)

It wasn't a big deal, I don't think anyone's feelings were hurt. I think it just surprised a few people, including myself, that it was a rule, considering assets don't matter as much on the public servers.

I was the guy kicked for steering the japaneese ship, unless I wasn't only one. I didn't notice any warning but I could have been too focused on the game. I tend to play instead of reading text walls. I managed to navigate towards the destruction of the fletcher but hey, I was hogging a valuable asset (okey, I'm being a bit sour about that).

I don't mind what happened because it's not my server and not my rules but the thing is the rules were not clear in my opinion. Do I have to ask for permission to use a tank/plane every time? Rules are good when they not vague and for everyone equally. I understand it's a mix of tourney and pub event so you add a little chaos to the usually structured game but I don't think this works well ATM.

By combining two of the worlds this way you get the benefits of none. Pubbies don't have their freedom and tourneys don't have their order. I'd suggest to mix in a different way. Let the pubbies do their thing and also create your squads that cooperate via ts (maybe make joining squads a requirement). This way you encourage people to teamwork instead of making them feel like cannon fodder.

Just my thoughts on the subject.

About the Iwo Jima map:

It's a huge improvement last time I played. Congrats. My suggestion is to either make beach flags recapable or create some kind of push or simply cross the flags on the map so everyone knows what's the situation. I think you should do something with the overall gloominess. Everything looks like a badly cooked soup. If you want to keep the color scheme and brightness maybe try to give the map more contrast so everything doesn't look the same.

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: Jimi Hendrix on 15-03-2015, 03:03:31

 This testing is open to the public, but it is not without restrictions that are not clearly made aware to the new/non tourney players until they are asked to leave with a sudden rude kick.

I am amazed by how some of these events are handled as if everyone automatically knows the rules.


The very reason i do not join these tournaments is because of the internal favoritism i saw today

Nowhere in the Campaign Advertisement does it say you have to be on TS3 to drive a ship.

You can either choose to casually join this campaign and simply play with us by joining one of the ingame squads, OR, immerse further into this campaign and sign up for one of the both sides:


Each side had its own password for the TS channels, but it not in the Campaign Advertisement.

This campaign is open to the public!


Join us on TS3:     ts.bfewaw.com    ts1.forgottenhonor.com


Come on. i know you guys can do better than that!


Otherwise, the map Iwo Jima is fun, immersive & a very unique experience to any map i have ever played in FH2.

Title: Re: Pacific Mini-Campaign
Post by: GeoPat on 15-03-2015, 04:03:37

Sorry for your guys bad experiences.  We do invite the pubbies to play but we cant let them turn it in to a a pubby free for all.  This is new to us and we are slowly figuring out how to incorporate all these different people.  For the most part it had been working well.  A ship is a major asset that requires a whole squad to operate.  if a team lets a lone wolf pubby drive the thing that team is going to lose.  That said, if you are in a squad and use VOIP or TS they should let you on the ship.  If they kicked you anyway then they overdid it.  BTW, you can ask for the TS passwords in game.  They don't want them posted publicly because of past spam problems.

I happen to know that the pubby server has rules about "wasting assets", so let's not act all surprised.  Next week will include Midway, which has the most naval assets yet.  Don't expect to jump into the driver seat of the Battleship and take it where ever you want just because I advertised "pubbies welcome".  If you want to use those major assets, join a squad, communicate and follow your SLs orders.  If they are being unreasonable then make a complaint and the admin will try to accommodate you. 

If this is not good enough for you Born To Be Wild ways, the maps are on 3 server all week.  You can pubby your ass off Sunday through Friday, if you get enough buddies to join.

AtomicA_network, you replied to a thread from over a year ago.  Indeed the prior post had been done on the last day of that early 2015 five-week Pacific event.

That was the first public shot at the WaW Pacific set of maps for FH2.  Since that time, it has been integrated into a set of custom maps, known as the Community MapPack V2 (CMP V2).  It includes updated Pacific maps, but also custom maps from around the FH2 community: Forgotten Honor, 762 Ranking, and World at War.

I understand that some maps in the CMP V2 had single player capability, but generally they are intended for multiplayer.  Yup, as jan_kurator said, there was an FH2 update.  It was earlier this year.  Thus, the crashes.

Right now, there is significant work on an update to the CMP V2.
