M1 garand sniper.. im calling it..
-
iirc never used in europe :-\
-
What could it be..... ;D
-
Well, we have Eastern Front announced ... so its either a T-34, or Mosin Nagant. (Or Botb maps).
P.S.: typed T-34 before I read "boom headshot :P"
-
Mosin sniper with PU scope, as has been in the log for 2.2 (If I remember correctly). Thus, quite possible :)
P.S. Anything would be nice, really!
-
Great we are going to get taunts in FH2 ;)
-
More Stg44 Snipers!

Hoping for a Foy map with the paratroopers taking a group photo and a sniper opens fire - Boom - Headshot
-
I call english longbow :D
-
Who knows, it might be another allied biased update
2 allied biased updates in a row! A new record!
-
Unexpected update is unexpected!
Looking forward to this, though!

Spaten mit ZF44 ;D ;D

ALLIED BIAS
AND how!!
OH my god! Epic M9 Bazooka! And Even more epic! SPRINGFIELD M1903A1
TOSS out all garands! Springfield FTW!!
FH2 devs
I am proud!
-
I love the title ;D
Nice gun :P
-
Nice news! 8)
-
Epicness dosent quite express the awesomeness of this update.
If i hade to choose a bolt action rifle right now i would thake the Springfield.
-
More manly weapons, I like 8)
-
Good news! Steady updates with rather small contents are way better than "big" announcements, so seeing two new weapons tonight is just cool.
I´m especially looking forward to see the Bazookas reticule in-game. Does it have magnification, btw? ;)
-
Isnt springfield already in the game I dont understand
-
Isnt springfield already in the game I dont understand
Ingame is only the sniper version
The regular bolt action rifle, still saw service, and now its finnaly in <3
-
Strange world ... im seeing a whole lot of G43 equipped germans fighting vs americans all armed with Springfield bolt action rifles.
Isnt springfield already in the game I dont understand
I think you mean the enfield M1917, scroll a bit down there.
http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de/main.php?module=weapons&country=3&lang=german
-
No no Butcher. Theta is right. The Springfield A4 is the sniper version which is already ingame. The A1 version will be used in Normandy for certain purposes. The M1917 is a completely different weapon.
-
FINALLY! A US bazooka easy to aim. lol
And the springfield is needed for the pacific right? lol ;D
-
No no Butcher. Theta is right. The Springfield A4 is the sniper version which is already ingame. The A1 version will be used in Normandy for certain purposes. The M1917 is a completely different weapon.
Thats what i said ... he asked if the Springfield unscoped was ingame already ... i meant to say: "no, you propably mean the enfiled M1917."
-
For example, the Rangers scout kit on PDH can has springfield, some US devisions still had them in the grenadier role. Engineers/artillery crews also still had alot of these weapons, together with the M1917 enfield
-
I just hope to see someday, this springfield 1903A1
http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Image:IMG_1712.JPG
It's the one used by marines in early pacific war.
-
ahh my mistake Butcher
-
ahh my mistake Butcher
No problem, i wrote it strange and it could be easily misunderstood.
-
M9 Bazooka - DO WANT.
Although I wonder why we didn't get M9A1 right away? I know that there's probably a minimum of changes but I like when the name of a weapon has the "magical A1" addition in it ;D I'm just nitpickin a little, couldn't help it :)
Also I'm curious of what rifle/kit is Springfield going to replace in Normandy ???
-
It will not fully replace kits. On PDH for example, the Springfield COULD be used for the Scout class or as a special commando kit. The US Army rangers where know to use the springfield for a long time
Some ammo kits can have these weapons for example. And ofcourse a pickup kit with a springfield, and then rifle grenades. The Springfield was never fully replaced in the grenadier role, because it was also simply better to use then the garand
The springfield can be the primary weapon for an early pacific war map with the USMC, and in a mixed usage on the US army in North africa
-
Thank you devs. Nice update, I especially like the more modernized bazooka 8)
-
Let us now hope this Zooka can penetrate the frontal armor of PZIV and stugs AS IT SHOULD be
-
Ahh, I came home, started my pc and opened the fh-page, just to have a short look into the forums. Then i realized the news site looked different and i read this epic title of the news.
good news, I love this mod for all the various type of weapons.
I hope to see it on some maps not only as pick-up kit. Or even a map with two spawnkits, one containing the springfield with rifle-nades and the other with garand and handgranates. That would be an interesting decision.
And guys, dont type some many replies. I wanted to send my post, but two times the system warned me, there where more then 2 replies, since the last post. ;)

Maybe it should be on a a scout kit or a engineer kit in certain maps, replacing the M1 Carbine and make some love in the heart of bolt-action lovers on American maps :P
-
And here I was thinking that AWP would be included as an easter egg: a pickup kit that you could find in a camp on some map. :P

Nice surprise to come out to after a midterm ;D

pfff ... then there is not the SLIGHTEST justification for a sherman to stand a panzerfaust shot or even a regular PIV shell.

And neither should the PZIV frontal armor be invurnable for the 75mm oh and the stug aswel
Please, i can continue with this
-
Was the 'Zooka model baked from a HP? or are those 'hand-drawn' normals??
Looks brilliant.
-
plz dont ;)
let me put it this way
the M9 IS obviously stronger than the M1 bazooka
and yes the springfield is great, i especially like the sound .

<cough> Real world effects were much different than what the factories said it should do. The Zook rounds were ACTUALLY only capable of penetrating about 50-60mm of armour, and the M9 I imagine, while better, still was NOT the 120mm or so that is quoted in the update.

Awaiting that theta says something about german steel quality in 44 ...

Wouldn't matter. HEAT rounds work by burning through, not smashing through.

They cut through, they work far to fast for any transfer of heat to have any effect.

Cut, whatever. I'm just saying that its a different way of penetrating the armour, that has nothing to do with if the steel is brittle or not.

All game penetrations are based on 500m. At that range, M3 gun with AP ammo can penetrate only 73mm RHA. Since as a rule, weakened armour is not taken into effect, the PzIV hull will remain invulnerable. Don't like that? Tough. I don't want to see this brought up again or you will start to lose man points.
Anyhow, I just thought I'd point out that while the PzIV has thicker frontal armour than the Sherman ingame, it also has fewer hitpoints - which means that comparisons between things killing them are more complicated.
-
ok ok ! you hav had your allied bias... for now... FLAK 43!

Nice surprise to come out to after a midterm ;D
And you told me it would never be in the mod in my Springfield thread!!!!
Anyway, good job devs. I love the M1901!!!!

Never said that, only that the A1 wasn't used in normandy. Now as also pointed out in that thread, the A3 was used as a grenadier platform, and this one actually is the A3 due to it having the A3 stock...so I donno why its called the A1 here. xD
-
Oooooh Springfield!!
Now vz.24! :D

I take no responsibility for the historical content of my updates. I am no Lightning or Taranov. On that note, I'll bring it up internally.

What Would Anlushac11 Do?
Beautiful weapons guys. Variety and detail is the bread and butter of FH, and I love me some fattening toast. :) Cant wait to see someone complain about the US having all automatic weapons then grief them with the Springfield.

Yet still enough to penetrate the PZIV/Stug frontally
Im not saying that it should 1s1k them. But there's plenty of times that a PZIV/Stug got destroyed by a bazooka frontallyAwaiting that theta says something about german steel quality in 44 ...
Shall i? because i learned even more the past months

Wait, FH2 penetration rule was 1000meters?
Oooooh Springfield!!
Now vz.24! :D
This^
-

Nope, if you looks at which materials are assigned to each projectile, you find it to be 500m values. 1000m values would be needlessly low, 100m needlessly high.
-
hm
I see
So if we see the Springfield, do we might see other rifles for the Germans? like the Czech VZ series? Or captured French/italian weapons?(We migth could use the models from French hope)
-
Nice update!
I totally forgot the springfield rifle, nice some bolt action with us troops :)
And never heard about the M9 bazooka, come to think of it, i always thought that the bazooka in cod united offensive was a fake, but it seems it was the m9.
-
ModDB update guys ?
8) 8)
-
M1903A1 has interchangeable sight stud (end of barrel) ? I notice there's a few pics out there of a round, cylinder sight. Could be another production batch or something.
The M9 was electrically fired (http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=41276) ? I never knew this. Hearing of the Bazooka is part of my childhood although I'm not sure where it first came up .... probably from heroic war films. If it's really electrically fired it sounds almost hi-tec, but let's face it it's really just an elaborate firework firing down a tube.
-
is it just me or the 1903 seems redone from scratch compared to SethSoldier's sniper version - Or is it just reskinned? And the aiming apparatus has changed.
Love to use that zook, although I prefer the 1903 - One of my favorites, besides the mouser. But infantry rockets and tank destruction generally put me off, especially the uber ones. Still, this zook looks more serious than the m1a1, moor badass
-
The sniper version is not the same rifle version as the rifle you see in the update,
Sniper version: 1903A4
Rifle version: 1903A3A1 according to the news if it not, il will be the 1903A3 so the point is, it's not the same rifle model :)
-
;) nobody will ever see the difference of the stock. All the models are based on the same model (they were done at the same time)
M1903 A1, M1903 A3, M1903 A4 are in FH2 btw. A1 and A4 was used in all the front. A2 was more rare but was also present on some fronts

Yes,electrically fired. It had a wire connected to the rocket, which you had to return when you reloaded the Zook. At least that is what I know. Also saw that on Brothers in Arms.

Whaaaat, this update slipped past me. Looking good!

M1903 and A1 usually had straight pistol grips, but some rifles had the A3 C-type grip. M1903A4 is basically just an A3 with iron sights replaced by a scope. And btw, A3 sights are diopter sights, whereas A1 and standard M1903 have tangent leaf sight similar to Mosin-Nagants and K98. A2 doesn't even have a stock, because it just had the action and barrel with mountings, so that it could be put into artillery pieces for short range training, originally intended for 3 inch coastal guns.

Wow the bazooka and a rifle that was already in the game but without a scope!
Maybe decide on some new gameplay improvements FH2 dev team?

Because this mod is underplayed and basicly just a reskin of BF 2 with WW II weapons, could use some serious improvements. ie: 2 man tank crews

That will not happen (the 2-man tank crews). If you have an gameplay suggestions, please make a thread in the appropriate sub-forum.

Just a reskin.. GTFO troll.
-
*Snigger* why? Because until we have 2-man tanks, we arent a total conversion mod, huh?
As though PR doesnt use more vanilla contents than FH. Go back to PR then, you bum! We arent all following the hardcore 'realism' just because you want it.

We had a discussion a while ago about that i think...
-Turned out the majority of players thought 2-man tank-crews would kill the fun, and you have even less infantry players to fight.
-On maps like Alam Halfa, or cobra with a shitload of tanks, you suddenly would have only tank crews and some poor infantrymen.
-Further, a good tank-crew in ww2 acted coordinated, the commander and driver could talk to each other, in FH2 or any other game this is hardly possible, so you have to imagine theres a tankcrew in that tank thats actually cooperating.
-And last but not least: Do you want Rambos who take a 2 seated tank, drive to the enemy, change to gunner positions and get shot although they´ve seen the enemy first ... this would look much more retarded.
So, no thanks! no 2 seated tanks (btw... a big reason i dont play PR ::))

Nicely done guys.

So where's the next update? It's been more than two weeks.
The right question would be: Could you be so kind to make a new news update, please? ;)
But I'am also very impatient, so I can understand you.
-
The devs say ever so often when this question comes up, when they have one.
Dont forget, not all development is update-worthy. Code work, static development, map work which doesnt result in a confirmed or even finished map - to mention but a few.
So these kind of questions dont help anyone - if anything, having to indulge it is irritating for the devs.
-
When there is something to show, they will show

-
Isn't the M9 Bazooka missing the metal shoulder stock?
I'm sorry but I just can't resist posting this: This is what I've been asking myself more and more often lately. Could devs shed some light on it? Because I saw tons and tons of pictures of this bazooka, and on every single one the stock was there. And it kind of makes sense, because this way it feels like the blowback would make the Bazooka 'slide off' the soldiers shoulder ???
-
It's because the model was started by modeller A, who didn't include the shoulder rest. Modeller A then left and when modeller B finished it the shoulder rest was skipped, because it would require a new UVW and export. You won't notice it in game unless you stand within 10 feet of the bazooka operator, so it was judged not to be important enough to go back and redo everything.
You are right though, it is missing.
-
I knew it had to be something too complicated/much effort requiring when it passed FH2's "quality & accuracy control" :) Thanks for explaining it.
