Axis bias no doubt.
-
My suggestion for a break and nitrous on the Jeep and Kubel went though?
-
Finally a motorcycle?
Oh wait no. Burning? Then it must be flamethrower tanks!
-
Yay, update! :D
-
great, after I finish watching Community and The Big Bang Theory, I'll check this update and today will become awesome :)
-
Axis bias no doubt.
Ofcourse, you cant have 2 allied biased updates after eachother
-
Russian biased ;)
-
I just say thank you devs - once again. ;D
Haha... who else thought about burn after reading?
-
German flamethrower maybe?
-
A self destruct system for all tanks?

MAMA mia DATSA die GOODA newsa!!!
-
Leuchtpistole shooting HE rounds? NICE!
-
Pff not as impressive as the Fiat truck!
-
Spelling error:
excellent power-to-weight ratio.
-
Nice news! Love both models!
-
Pff not as impressive as the Fiat truck!
Tss, can the Fiat truck make other things go boom?! I don´t think so...therefore Leuchtpistole wins.
Also I wonder how large the "kill radius" of the 23mm HE round will be? And how much of each ammo type will a player carry? How many different ammo types will we get (flare with/without chute, HE and Eiergranate warhead?)?
-
At last! Italian stuff is coming! :)
I hope that more maps with Italians will be in next patches.
-

What wins wars? a flaregun wich can fire a small grenade? or trucks wich carry vital supplies and transport troops?
PLUS its italian!
-
I love Krätzer for making more Italian stuff ;D

The flare gun that blows up a whole enemy truck full of suplies in 1 hit. ;D
-

Ye he's the best! Massive credit to kratzer! awesome job mate!
-
The Fiat is important to make the Italians an stand alone Army.
And it will be nice to for the Germans to have an truck that can carries more than the Opel.
-
More Italian stuff.
Nice nice!!! 8)
-
Gonna roll in Afrika... Fiat style 8)
-
I dream also about Italian tankettes and artillery. ::)

Will the germans also have this truck in normandy? would be very awesome aswel

The Leuchtpistole only shoots flares. The Kamfpistole shoots the grenades and what not.
-
ITALIAN BIAS YES!!!!
And leuchtpistole, yay! ;D
-
good work krätzer need more italy bias stuff ;D
-
Good that the Italians are getting some love... :D
-
A new truck for my favorit FH2 army 8)
-
Awesome! Moar italian bias!

It's adorable :D

Awesome! Moar italian bias!
More! MORE MOORERE MOAAAAAAARRRRRRR (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4w6V-PbPKM#t=0m9s)
-
Hey you didn't talk about Fh2 twitter :) by the way, nice update.
-
Not bad
But I'm just going to say it... The tyre looks blah... a tad sub-FH2-standard tbh
And something about the Italian skin isn't right, not historically innacurate or anything.. just feels off somehow... Otherwise, its a great model with painstaken detail.. kinda like a knock-off Bedford QF :-)
-
nice!
sure a new truck doesnt change the gameplay very much. but it still gives the game a better atmosphere. italians will feel more like an own faction and not just some minor stuff put together.
-
No Greeks >:(

Nice! Good to know Italians are not completely forgotten! :)

Flare guns rule!

Flare guns rule!
Fiat truck rules even more!
MOAR ITALIAN STUFF
-
It's a little but very nice update. ;D
It's really funny that so many people are hot on the Spaghettis. 8)
I hope to play with Spaghettis on eastern front... this would just be the coolest fun fight. ;D
-
cool.
-
Definitely awesome to see more stuff and more importantly more Italian stuff! But I have to say I am bit disappointed would have liked to see something bigger, more common to come in new fronts or something new about Bulge after such a long time since last update :P
-
Are you kidding Paavo this update is top class.
-
And there is something new about Bulge, a lorry for Heer. ;)
-
.... But I have to say I am bit disappointed would have liked to see something bigger, more common to come in new fronts or something new about Bulge after such a long time since last update :P
TBH: I thought the same, but we all know that building the mod needs soooo much time. Let's be patient and enjoy the fruits of it when it's done. ;D
Btw: Last night I spotted a new testmap on the testserver.... ;D

Especially for you a detailed summary of our progress in developing new matériel for FH2:
a) Concerning the new fronts; Since we've shown the Eastern Front update we have made absolutely no progress on this front, other than getting a initial (unfinished) IS2 in game, ported from Forgotten Hope 1.
b) Concerning the Bulge; All new vehicles, weapons and player models are modeled, skinned and shown in the news (with exception of the US player models, I suppose). They are not yet all in game however and progress exporting them is remarkably slow. Apart from the missing assets, we are still working very hard on finishing the handful of maps that we have planned for the next release. These maps vary from being near finished to still needing a lot of work. Much of the work that still needs to be done on the maps is in the 'art' stage of development, our mappers preferring extensive beta testing to ensure perfect game play and balance before committing large amounts of time on the looks of the map.

Wait so no 90mm for the americans?
Seriously, that gun saw MASSIVE action during the battle of the bulge. It was present on almost any defensive line.Seriously leaving that gun out is like leaving out the tiger on villers bocage

Yes but it was present in large numbers on static mounts! Stavelot!St vith, Houffalize, Bastogne! Many more of these areas had these guns!

i am very dissapoint..really
If new vehicles/stuff is requested by mappers, i cannot understand that the mappers oversighted this.

Seriously, leaving that gun out is like leaving out the 76 mm M5 AT guns on Lüttich. ;D
-
Then finally learn how to mod and don't post another 7000 posts. Maybe this would help. ;)
I like you but sometimes you act like a little child crying for "mooooaaarreeee". I understand it, but really, calm down.
Btw: Thank you for the nice status update, that's kinda interesting.

YES! that aswel! WE HAVE the bloody gun and then they give answers that the 57mm is already present! I mean go read on wikipedia and even THERE will you find out that it was the 76mm M5 guns of the 635 TD battalion that took the frontal assault of the Axis tank forces....
-
Yay news, but i cant keep my self from saying. There seems something...different with the wheels of both trucks.
When i look at the renders of the other trucks they are round and textures. But these are a bit squarish and all black?

Sn00x i know that it is impossible to make perfect round circles on modeling, even though i dont model
But i know its a shit amount of work, and patience. And i dont have patience. I gave up after 30 minutes of work already on my first model when i was in the hospital ;D
-
There is an profile on the Tyre and it is dirt on the tyre, you´re not able to see cause of the shadow.
Most Dev´s maked there Tyre grey to make them brighter, i will do that too on later Models that have many shadow on the Tyre.
At Gun against work with Black wheels better cause you can see the Normal better working.

How about in-game screenshots of new vehicles ( I know Jagdpanther is in-game!)? Or some shots of new statics or WIP maps? Those would have been really awesome. Not saying the current update is bad or anything.
-
We don't show WIP screenshots. This means we can't show statics and vehicles either (because they're on WIP maps).
-
You did show before, the M10 for example when Normandy was in the works. Back then no Normandy map was revealed yet.
-
Usually you get to see the statics/vehicles when a map is shown, not the other way round.
And yes you will have seen them already. Consider seeing them beforehand a bonus.
-
You did show before, the M10 for example when Normandy was in the works. Back then no Normandy map was revealed yet.
When? I can't find this.
-
Well Panther at least was shown In-Game in "Old Friends" update by you in April 2008 same with Cromwell month later in "The Oasis" update.
First Normandy map was shown in July 2008 and that was Lüttich.
Well didn't find the M10 one but my point still stands, you have shown in-game screenshots before, even if no map was revealed. Actually you did it even when Eastern front was revealed, you showed 4 WIP screenshots of Bulge.
-
Both the Panther and Cromwell were shown on a map which didn't ever make it into a release (and likely never will) and the Bulge work in progress screenshots were shown without consulting the respective mappers, which led to a great amount of discontent among them.
-
Maybe you could show Bulge stuff in-game in a map that will never make into Bulge release? :P
-
Finally we can deliver Pizza's to guys fighting at the front in style.
Nice update :)
-
So The Leuchtpistole 34 will be available for Axis forces at Ste Mere Eglise riiight?????
;)
-
I bet it will be (just) on Hyacinth...
-
I bet it will be (just) on Hyacinth...
Hm, N24 Reporter told on bf-games.net that it will be used on a map with a church
@Don: Die Karte hat entfernt was mit einer Kirche zu tun. ;)
-
there's a church on hyacinth.

Well, I didn't negate it ;)

Oh, so you think the Bulge maps will be about Stavelot, St vith, Houffalize and Bastogne, huh? Mmm, interesting...
:P
-
Wow even as betatester I had not seen the Fiat, Krätzer you rule!

speaking about maps we never will see, why not take those maps ask permission and give them too the tournaments who would love to utilize them...an official but unofficial map pack..
-

It's like 2 maps in total and they weren't even on a level with the quick tournament maps.
So don't worry. ;)
-
New updates are always nice! Great work there!
MOAARRR ITALIANI vehicles!!!! ;D
-
Wait we can kill people with the Flaregun just like with the No1 Very flaregun right? ;D
FLAREGUN DUELS
-
Love the flare/HE gun ;D. There does seem to be something going on with light direction in the renders ? The facing side of the Leuchtpistole is in shadow and the other one in the scene should be on its side ? Not sure I understand where the Fiat will be used but I have probably not caught up with that part yet. Thanks for the update !
Maybe you could show Bulge stuff in-game in a map that will never make into Bulge release? :P
There is a way to use a special totally black background level to showcase assets as they will appear in game.
-

Olle Petze! :P
-
Good update!! step by step italians could have a bit more vehicles,weapons and stationary weapons.
Will the Fiat 626 be added to maps where italians fought with germans, or those with exclusively italian forces?
-
I liked this update ! :D
BTW are flareguns going to be updated like flamethrowers were ?
-
Not sure I understand where the Fiat will be used but I have probably not caught up with that part yet. Thanks for the update !
The 626 can be used on pretty much all African maps to replace/supplement the Opel (since the Germans used whatever transport they could lay their hands on). I think the same situation applies in Bulge maps too.
-
So the Opel will be viewable probably on all front, like NA, the Ardennes, and the future Ostfront with Italy campain. It's a great update as always, new italian stuff is always great but I would have prefered if it concern a little more about the Ardennes, since it's what everybody on the forum is waiting for :P
-
Now we only need=Italian AA gun, Italian Artillery and italian planes for a worthy italian army!

Oh yes, my mistake :P

Nice update, it has been a while. Thank you for the continuing strong work devs.
Also, doesnt fiat have something to do with money supply? Why is it the name of a truck?

FIAT is Italy's leading car manufacturer.
-
FIAT also manufactures=Tractors, engines, construction material
FIAT also pretty much owns all Italian car manufactures and truck manufactures
they still are in trouble though :v

there has to be more maps that have been tested and will never see the light of day.

Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino. You know, the company that makes everything from cute little FIAT 500's to Ferrari brand sports cars.

And recently 35% stake in Chrysler :P

Hmmm, something I just clicked onto: How many night maps are there for the Germans? Answer: None.
So does this mean the Italians on Operation Hyacinth will be using the Leuchtpistole 34/Kampfpistole? or is there a more sinister/tantalizing option...
Germans get a night based map :o

They already have one. Anctoville. ;)

well Italians Germans whatever ;D

That would be a map with a church on it but I believe in a Ste Mere Eglise Map

Yes, Fiat is latin for let it be or let it be done. A Fiat currency is basically another word for (worthless) paper money that is not backed by gold or any other stable commodity.
OnT: Nice update! I especially like that the Italians are not forgotten.
