FH2 Help / Support / Cant Start FH2 via FH2.exe
« on: 04-03-2012, 15:03:14 »
Recently Ive started playing FH2 again however when I press FH2.exe, the game starts, black screen before the FH2 Movie scene, then cuts out. I can start FH2 via BF2 by going to Community>Activate Game etc however that has problems like I cant control AT guns or no blurry screen when Bleeding.

Im running on Windows Vista and Ive tried reinstalling FH2 and BF2 but that has done nothing.
I have also tried various compatibility modes but to no avail

Suggestions / 2 Ways Improvement of Suppression Fire
« on: 09-02-2011, 00:02:20 »
1. Blinking
When you hear loud noises that you do not "expect"  i.e. a bullet crack you tend to blink your eyes subconsciously for a very short time. This can be implemented in the game as a slight dimming and flickering of the screen as each shot goes past. So a MG would be more effective then a bolt-action for suppression.

2. Twiching
Same reason as above. A subconscious movement by muscles due to sudden noises. The "twiching" can be very subtle but it would make returning fire with sniper-like accuracy as currently ingame more difficult.

General Discussion / Driving enemy vehicles
« on: 06-04-2010, 10:04:03 »
Yesterday on Luttich my squad "captured" a Puma that had a good amount of health since the engine only had the white smoke. And obviously we couldn't use it against the Germans.
            So this begged me to ask the question "How come we can't drive captured enemy vehicles?" since servers, notably hslan don't allow you to go into the enemy main and thus you can't have a Brits/Americans nicking a Panther or Tiger.

Off-Topic / Sexiest and fugliest looking Planes in WW2
« on: 22-02-2010, 17:02:27 »
As with the other Sexiest looking tank thread I will start with a sexiest plane thread because IMO planes look more sexy then tanks
IMO the sexiest plane is the The Spitfire MK1
Its got smooth curves and there are no cannons as in the later versionsso they dont destroy the shape


A quite ugly plane is the Ki-27

General Discussion / Epic sorties of epicness thread
« on: 17-02-2010, 12:02:02 »
I made this thread for people to tell about there epic sortees/rounds in a game.
Yesterday on Villers i decided to take the Sherman V expecting to be owned by a Pz4 or something.
Instead I destroyed four Pz4s and a Tiger.
I destroyed the first two Pz4s by camping next to the farm house so i has hidden from the Tiger.Then I thought
Point 213 was british so I charged there and saw Panzerfaust minions heading my way when I was there. I raped them with my MG
Then I saw a Tiger and a Pz4. Shot the Pz4 first and then flanked Tiggah and killed him.
Then I saw two Pz4 heading my way and they were very far from me. I prepared an ambush position in the hedge. I destroyed one Pz4 but the other swung his turrent and killed me:(

Suggestions / Weapon Unlocks (Dunno what to call it?)
« on: 08-02-2010, 18:02:05 »
In vBF2 and CoD you unlock weapons as you progress through the game blah blah blah etc etc

What im prosposing is that we can scrap the ranking system and just have the unlocks/switch weapons whatever they are called since i feel it will add more variety
e.g. for the Americans you might want to have the BAR or the M1919 .30(obviously like the MG42 and with the dizzying supercool animation), Germans for Partisan maps Mp40 or 41 and late war MP40 or STG

My suggestion mainly applies to machingunner and submachingunner kits as the rifles the rifles that werent the main can be pickups or something

Off-Topic / Silent Hunter V looks like for the casual gamer
« on: 01-01-2010, 23:01:38 »
SHV looks like for the casual gamer since I saw a realism games nemesis HEALTHBARS!
http://ubitv.de.ubi.com/?vid=751
skip to 10 minutes and the SH bit starts.
Im really dissapointed since I was really looking forward to this game since I have SH3 and 4 but if its for the casual gamer it's very likely I won't  buy it. Please lets hope there isnt any DLC. You get like 2 subs and you have to pay a fiver for every other sub or so is retarded like RoF.

Off-Topic / Don't buy anything from PC World
« on: 22-12-2009, 09:12:53 »
I bought a decent gaming PC from PC world 2 1/2 years ago. Now it is litterally falling apart.
After 2 years the USB started to not work. I got the fixed. 1 month ago the graphics card just failed for some unknown reason. But i replaced it. Yesterday the sound system just failed. I tested the speakers on my laptop and they work so it something with the PC and today its making a very sqeaky annoying noise that is either the hardrive failing or the fan failing.

Oh and Windows Vista fails. It was made by a bunch of monkeys who dont know what practicality means.
