Since when are updates in the developer blogs and not in the announcement section? Totally missed this.

Nice update. What´s the reload time on the AVRE?

It's not the new habit, if that's what you mean,. This is an exception and I believe it was because of something technical with renders.

Reload time is long. It feels like a few minutes.

I got to that update via Facebook. So, there’s a use for that.

On the topic of destructible environments:

One of my favorite features of FH1 was the destructible barbed wire fences on Omaha Charie Sector. It looks like we're getting some additional obstacle-clearing functionality with the AVRE. Any chance we'll see more of this type of gameplay in the future? (No I'm not asking about an Omaha map, I mean the destructible key items like beach walls, etc.)

I don't get what this obsession with Omaha is, I mean it's just running and dieing all day.

Beach Assaults are cool imo. Not like the Gold Beach beach assaults where the beachhead is already established but like fighting to get the beachead. I had the same obsession with Tarawa in FH1 (that was such a badass map).

[jan_kurator]

Yeah, Tarawa as one of my favourite pacific maps. Would be great to play it with 128 players someday.

I was merely commenting on the gameplay feature of destructible obstacles, using Omaha Charlie Sector from FH1 as an example. I was curious if there were any plans to apply that to other maps in the future, I think it's a pretty neat feature. So, any thoughts of where else this could be applied everyone?

I can explain at least my personal feeling towards Omaha, but I think we'd agree that's not the point of this thread.

Spot on. I absolutely adored Tarawa. I would give anything to do a full 128 match there.

Wasn't the AVRE on a custom map somewhere? One of those Italian maps?

Yes, Garigliano Crossing. Did it work on that map?

[titsmcgee852]

Yeah it was awesome. Not sure if it was FH2's AVRE though? Or a custom one.

Most likely FH2's AVRE as it was in the files for a long time now but never used on any official map.

[Ts4EVER]

It was coded with the SU152 gun though IIRC.

Does that mean it could lob that Spigot more than a mile?
