Hello,

coming from the Project Reality side of BF2, I always wanted to check through the other well known BF2 mods like AIX2, Point of Existence 2 and now, FH2. Here is, in short, what I think of it:

+ Very interesting flair and setting, nice atmosphere.
+ Nice models with good historical accuracy.
+ Good development of kits & vehicles in terms of gameplay and balance

- Empty servers, gaming audience is very small
- Not much emphasis on squad play
- small maps (let us forget that desert maps do not have to be that detailed
- sadly, a lot of vanilla BF2 features are still incorporated in the game.
- small maps

Of course, You might say, a PR player should not be so harsh with a mod that does not want to be much different in gameplay than vanilla BF2: Different game, different audience.

In this case I agree with You. It is just sad to see that another mod fails to bring in radical changes to the gameplay. Implementing these gameplay changes and enforcing a certain player culture are the reasons why PR is so successful while other BF2 mods are not. Of course, one should not make FH2 another PR ,but some more distinctive differences to BF2 should be there.

Cheers,
