One of the biggest flaws of Forgotten Hope is the small player base in North America. I think the primary reason for this is the lack of advertisement. I am well aware that the Forgotten Hope 2 team does not get paid for their amazing work and the cost of traditional advertisement is expensive.
During the 2.26 release of Forgotten Hope 2 I tried my best to work with several people on the forums, urging them to post topics and show screenshots in other forums to spread the word. I still believe that more people would play this amazing mod if they only knew about it. With the initial releases I remember some very cool instructional videos were posted on youtube. Over the last couple years some amazing wallpapers have been made as well. These were great ways to promote the mod.
While no one but the mod team knows when 2.3 will release, I would like for us to work together as a community, with the mod team, to come up with some ways of promoting FH2 better. I am confident we can come up with some clever ways to help drive people to try out Forgotten Hope 2. Please post any ideas you guys have and we can discuss!
