FH2.47 is released
http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de/news.php?id_news=449
Downloading at 200KB/s. Very very slow. I hope it increases fast.
Not good at all.... should have release it earlier imo.

It's lonely at the beach...hurry up!!

We would if you had release it earlier therefore more seeders were online now....
How many people are seeding ? 1 or 2 ?
-
Hurry up RanDOOm, less accusations, faster downloading.

There are only 2 peers.... Its not an accusations. Its a fact.
I have 200Mb connection and im download at 140kbs.
Its your fault that all of the FH2 player are experiencing bad download speeds, not mine.
You guys should have released it earlier. Simple thing to do.
Admit your own mistake, be a bigger man.
;)

Yes, we are working on adding more seeders. It´s not as many as last time atm :/
Be patient, it´s just ~400MB.

Why did you add the wink, it totally ruined it.
But I will still reveal our master plan. We (Beta and Dev) wanted to win all the shiny medals first. They way to do that was to not let the competition get access too soon.
Now your 5 MB upload speed will spoil that, drat..
-
Ehehe.
All good. 8)
-
Im d/l at under 50k in USA.
Could take over 3 hrs
:-[
-
Maybe release the update 1h or half an our sooner then announced so there is no huge network congestion ?
Just a suggestion.
I hate to be right sometimes....
People download and play after. So the peers remain at 2 or 3....
You guys need to change that.
-
0 peers for the past 30 minutes or so... lol
-
I hate to be right sometimes....
It's a rare occassion.

75 out of 76. Not that rare.

Tells a lot when you keep a record.

Tells a lot when you keep a record.
Yes it does.
Especially this kind of situations when i warned a couple of hours before that it would happened, but i was ignored.
There are still more then 100 people downloading a miserable 400Mbts for 3 hours....
Once again. 75 out of 76. ;)
-
Apparently you P2P system does not work.
Why didn't you just released it over torrent? ;)
-
when i warned
i was ignored.
Join a club or something.

It is using torrent as p2p :). However there's some unexpected problems with the connections between seeders and the launcher, it has little to do with use not releasing it a bit earlier randoom. We are working on a few fixes to speed things up. In the meantime.. it is what it is, just try to be patient for a bit.

Well, you guys know F|H tournament is Fridays @ 18UTC. Already postponed by 1 hour and then the download is shit, so 80 ppl can't play unfortunately. It is what it is, but I don't get why you would release a patch like that @ 18UTC being the prime time for people to play FH2 anyway. Offering the download in the afternoon would enable everyone to play in the evening.
It is what it is now, but it's kinda stupid I'm sorry.
-
Shh..
Praise FH2 devs because this sure beats waiting an entire year for the next update. Huzzah!
-
I still get an error and can not use the launcher, therefore I can't do the update. :'(

On the other hand as soon as you would have updated, you would not have been able to play on 2.46 servers. So you need to time it so that the servers are switched to 2.47 with out a large gap between the client patch. Perhaps an opt-out to actually patch the game once the download is done.
I think there is room for improvement in how things can be patched in the future, but spitefulness and resents are not helping anywhere.

Here's the magnet link for your favorite bittorrent client:

try going to C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Forgotten_Hope and delete everything there..
you will need to enter your name and password again when running the launcher afterwards

fixed it thanks for the help :D

Ok.
You just lost 100 player on F!H campaign Friday night because of this.
Keep ignoring these players....
-
It had nothinh to do with starting too late and everything with the seeding server not being set up correctly. That won't happen in the future. Although, how come you think we ignore the tournament players?
-
Bah, don't mind him he's just upset along with a number of others.

Firday 18 UTC is also usual time for FH2 releases and that's why this one was released at this time. This is also the first "small" patch released via launcher, lesson learned, I think future patches will be released eariler.
Especially this kind of situations when i warned a couple of hours before that it would happened, but i was ignored.
Couple of hours before is too late anyway.
Keep ignoring these players....
I'm sorrry that you feel being ignored, I think nobody did that on purpose.
-
I think people will survive one day without playing FH2 so the game can be updated...I think people forget it is just a game sometimes.
-
They could have ran the tournament on 2.46 and then patched it later.
There are 2 populated servers running 2.47 now
Im sure the Devs will make a note of these issues & correct them in future updates.
BTW - The launcher is fantastic. Can u add different pictures for each new patch?
;)
-
I'm just impressed that this thing works. slow DL speed is a price I would pay ANY day to continue to play this wonderful mod.
-

That is all good.
But, keep in mind that every Friday night there are almost 100 players playing FH2 mod on F|H Tournament.
These are members that are training during all the week on a specific map that will be played FRIDAY NIGHT.
A big part of them are players that rarely play on the public servers and just want to enjoy good teamwork.
So yes. This was a very bad planned release .
This is my personal opinion.
-
Sorry, but my personal opinion is that it is foolish of FHT to not delay updating until after the tournament, if it is so important. You decided to take that risk, so live with it, instead of blaming us for it.

I wanted to make a point that there is a more optimal time for doing this, of course I'm glad there is a patch that keeps the mod alive, that it has been worked together on a fix with the PR guys and that you can simply have a download the patch via the launcher.
Was just disappointing for some people including me. I know release day is on friday but maybe putting it up a bit before prime time or communicating better with the communities would be great in the future.
@mayhemic: Whatever. It was unfortunate. And yet communication can solve such problems in the future and the criticism isn't there for no reason and it's not complete nonsense either.
-
The Launcher releases sure need a different timing. We simply choose Friday 18utc as usual, but that was not the best idea really :-X
Much of the problem was because we had only two of four seeders running because of the short notice with the release date. After two hours the peak was over and it went faster.
Anyway, maybe we make it at 12utc next time, so people can get it when they return from work. This should reduce the delays for everyone.
-

As part of the oligarchy that runs F|H I can speak for us.
You are absolutely right, it is entirely our own fault for not having a contingency plan in place. People should be angry with us not the developers as we had approximately 23 hours warning ahead of time and at a glance I see little reason why dozens of people who have been waiting to play this Friday for a whole week had to be disappointed. It's going to be looked into, maybe even a few heads will roll.
-
Firday 18 UTC is also usual time for FH2 releases
How could we ever forget?
-
So, who makes these decisions? I'm just curious.
If lighting is on extended forever vacation, who is the top dog in the FH2 workshop?
With the account server issues, few new players will ever buy BF2.
The new players are actually OLD players coming back ......
The player base increases at least 80% after a release & it's sustainability is dependant on how big the patch is.
How about just releasing on a Thursday & everyone is happy.

-
Yeah like 100 others.
All of those people joined TS, waited for 1,5 hours and needed to quit on their play day. Most of them are not regular pubby players you know. They come us for Teamwork, once in a week and these problems ruined their night.
For the future please make a separate torrent file so if people wants to download and install from torrent they can properly seed it.
Thanks. ;)
-
We'll fix the problems related to the release for next one. Other than that, thanks for all the humble opinions. And i think this thread might have run it's coarse.
-
We have made a new torrent file with an additional webseed and some other settings to improve the speed.
If anyone is running a seeder already or wants to do so, you are welcome. Just use this torrent now:
http://fhbeta.warumdarum.de/fh2share/fh2-client-2.8.603.torrent
Be aware that you should not use this to install fh2, since some things like shader cleanup and such will only be done if you install/update via the launcher.
-
Am I the only one who got this downloaded and installed rather quickly? Speed was something like 500 kB/s. Was too eager to play so quit seeding as soon as DL was done... and found one server with only <10 players :P
-
Mine was very slow and didnt download after a while, so I cancelled it.
This shit is never gonna download unless someone else starts seeding...
-
By 'shit' i suppose you mean fh2 :).
Also, when did you start the download? The new torrent should be online since a few hours ago. Perhaps try to start the launcher again, and it will use the new torrent? Right now, there's few people downloading and the servers should still be seeding at full speed, so it really should not be a problem. Please try to restart launcher and let it run for a bit to see if it gains speed again like it should.
-
Eh, sorry, I was kinda stressed at the moment, didnt mean to insult your effort :)
I started at UTC +2 (which is +4 at Turkey), but cancelled a while ago, thanks for reminding, I'll try again! :)
-
No problems. I am aware of the frustration it can cause. Just remember we are just a few dedicated guys working on this at the moment.
Ok yeah, i think the new torrent was released after that, so try again and hopefully it should be succesful.
-
Ah, much better, only 2 minutes remaining! Thanks (http://www.battlefieldsingleplayer.com/forum/style_emoticons/default/bigthumb.gif)
-
No problems here. Took me 4 minutes or so.
-
Nice work! I really appreciate the effort everyone puts in this mod!
-
Just want to tell everybody that this patch is 100% epic, since it fixed the connections issues I had since I installed BF2. Finally I am able to enjoy this masterprice!
-
Great to see smaller updates, that might finally shut those people who say mod is dead ;D
Btw is there a way to keep seeding when i downloaded the patch?
-
Dunno if you can seed and play at one time but if you just want to seed the torrent go to options and click "repair" button. As long as your build isn't different from the official one it will just run the torrent engine and seed. You can also set the limit of your upload speed in Update / Repair options.
-
I forgot to comment Great job developers, it is very well done version to play, thanks!
-
Haven't gotten a chance to comment or play yet but I wanna say great job devs. These small fixes prove the worth of the launcher and updater.
Omaha: tickets and spawn conditions of 2nd flag group equipment changed
1500 seems like a good place to start, can't wait to see how the map plays out with it now
Added Omaha 16 player layer
small layer love! :D
Fixed aiming with the Gewehr 41
I still hate the sights of that gun in comparison to others, but I'll see if I can actually hit the broadside of a barn with it this time :P
Fixed the physics of the Ju52
thank God for this, I knew something was wrong. Got raped as the Germans cause every other pilot (including myself) stalled while trying to gain altitude. Tested it on local and it seems back to the way it was :)
Improved ragdoll settings
glad you guys are tweaking this. never had a huge problem with ragdolls before but the PR ones are great
Thanks for the update guys
P.S. for what its worth I had no problems downloading.
Catch you guys out there 8)
-
SP Omaha is so fun, thanks!
-
Agreed, SP Omaha is now one of my favorite maps. Very beautifully crafted, all the way through. A big thanks for the developers.
-
Well exicuted devs!
Worked like a charm!
(This shutting down is computer history... damn)
-
Is there any possibility to browse players nicks with GUID of the new server?
-
New ragdolls are excellent. Great work as always.
-
Great job!
