Man that trailer was good! I think It's time to come back to FH2 :D.

Of course it is! 2.50 will be a blast! ;D

Awesome job with the trailer Hawk2k9

Well done dude.   ;)

I just hope the devs will make FH2 standalone / Free2Play like Project Reality did.  That would mean an exponential growth in daily player base.

In my opinion that is the only thing that will bring life to the mod again  + with the new 4 russian maps it would be the best marketing move to be done.

Hundreds of new players would install FH2 just because of that.

Just a thought to the developers.

I still need to say
When I saw stupid german face and not beautiful new finish playermodel, it was pretty depresing. I know you have lot of job and RL but you could only atleast changed face-not make model from scratch. Now dont tell me (Jan) "DO YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS EVEN TO DO THAT????  >:( >:( " ,tell me why finish playermodel wasnt necessary for you,why you made only uniforms because German Hulk looks shit and with finnish uniform even more shitter...

Reading this I am a bit shocked tbh. The patch with propably the biggest content update, many many bugfixes and alot of other important stuff is not even released yet and people start complaining about game changing details like face textures  ::)

What about waiting for it to be released ... atleast we changed the helmet wich is a bit more work. Sorry that we went the cheap way.  :-X

Post by: Flippy Warbear on 09-11-2015, 23:11:52
Finnish models are what they are because necessary shortcuts in order to have anything at all. German models works just fine when they went through a reskinning process and received some finnish-specific gear such as Suomi drums, field caps and helmets. There wasnt much else to do with them.

Why faces werent changed? Well because it wasnt really necessary. Yes, it would have been extremely nice to have new faces but we dont have artists to make new faces.
Title: Re: The Surprise Soviet - A Forgotten Hope 2 Update
Post by: Hauggy on 10-11-2015, 00:11:39
Sounds really unnecessary to change face models...unless you change them to use this one lol :

Post by: Kuupperi on 10-11-2015, 01:11:51
I'm totally cool with the Finnish playermodel but is the pot helmet the only helmet the Finns get? After all the Finns had this another helmet that looked like the German helmet but was slightly different and was in more common use. Maybe it's there but wasn't shown during the stream?

And maybe the Finnish forces will have Lahti L-35 and Sotka (captured T-34) in the upcoming patches if there will be more maps featuring the Finns with armor?

And yes, Finns also get the Stahlhelm (the german helmet) style helmets. That was answered in the stream as I asked about it.

Why was the scout kit nerfed?  Only one mine now?  :(  And no more sticking to walls?  That was part of the fun, in real life soldiers made traps, can't do that in FH2 so that was as close as you could get.
Title: Re: The Surprise Soviet - A Forgotten Hope 2 Update
Post by: Slayer on 10-11-2015, 18:11:46
That was part of the fun
Yeah, for the guy who placed them, maybe. But locking off entire flagszones by putting some mines wasn't so much fun, so that's one of the reasons. It's also very unrealistic to place a mine which should be buried irl vertically on a wall.

If not, one Stuka or Tiger I wouldn't hurt... erhm, just to hear/see that KwK 36's 88 deflect from the IS-2's frontal armour... would be "fun".
Title: Re: The Surprise Soviet - A Forgotten Hope 2 Update
Post by: Roughbeak on 10-11-2015, 22:11:44
Partly the reason why we set the ap mines to just "1" was because they were getting extremely spammy.

Mixed emotions, the map and vehicle continues to be great and the  "gameplay tweaks" continues to piss me, as it were the case since 2.45.

Yet on another thought, why should I bother. Those Thursday night where I blew people up with smines on WAW servers are long gone any way...

I knew there'd be mixed emotions about the AP mines ;)

It's not nerfed in any way imo. Just less spammy now. Now every town in France isn't littered with un-exploded ordinance.

Give it time.

Personally I'm happy about the s-mine changes. They're incredibly glitchy and dying by intentionally running through them because they're on stairways where there's no other viable option gets old pretty fast. They're completely broken on the king of the hill maps in particular.

I thought they were best back in the days without indicators, since people actually used them realistically (namely not in high traffic areas where allies were likely to step on them).

two questions:
is the reduction to one ap mine in scout kit performed in every corresponding map or in the upcoming maps only? did someone check the fixes (we've heard of) regarding missing mine icons in 3D map so far?

Yes, that's correct.

Hi Yehiel, welcome to the forum!

1) There will be one mine in the scout kit (sniper too) including all maps.

2) Don't quote me on this, but I think Gavrant fixed the disappearing 3d mine icon. :) Gavrant can you confirm this?

The soldier in the cupola is not the one driving the tank, he's a passenger who is probably a recon or NCO with binoculars.

What makes you think it has to be a different key when you drive a tank? It's a 6th weapon slot as I said, so by default it gonna be "6" key. If you don't have binocs in your kit, you can't use them - it's not a tank feature, it's just a passenger seat in commanders cuppola, which is open in some tanks, like Panzer IV seen in the teaser. That guy is not the driver. Now please, stop making fool of yourself, and read answers to your questions before you will go apeshit again.

for the same reason there is no PR, Alpha Project and dozens of other mods.

Liking this, will come back for the party if this was made standalone.
Funny how everybody assumed that FH2 will become standalone (because PR did?) when devs never gave us any official statement on this subject. There are of course some hints if you dig deep enough, but those are more suitable for conspiracy thread than anything else. As Roughbeak said: to play FH2 you can get BF2 for free from battlelog.co (http://battlelog.co/downloads.php), what combined with FH2 Launcher makes FH2 a "semi" standalone mod for now ;)
Title: Re: The Surprise Soviet - A Forgotten Hope 2 Update
Post by: Flippy Warbear on 16-11-2015, 20:11:09
Battlelog is all fine and dandy but I know I would personally have difficult time to convince people I know to try FH2 out since it takes two major downloads and more things to make sure they run as intended. If it was just one download and one install, that'd be a whole other story. People these days dont have the patience to go through the trouble unfortunately.

That's obvious, but battlelog is all we can use for now. It still makes it much easier than buying BF2, updating it to 1.41 and then to 1.5 before even installing the mod. The old way required 4 downloands: BF2, 2 patches (one of them was 1,5GB big) and FH2. Add to that shitloads of time needed for all the installs (I remember installing those patches took ages) not to mention all the mistakes people made in the process what forced them to reinstall whole thing and start from the scratch all over again. Battlelog already helped to bring new players to FH2 :)

I wish it was that simple, but unfortunately it's not. I only hope devs will eventually overcome all the obstacles on their way to release a standalone or at least give the community an official statement on this subject.

Agree
Install BF2 & FH2 with One Click
Maybe It Could be done easily with "AutoIt" ?

Ah cool! Might come back for some games. Battle communication killed the game for me back then. Do tanks go down with one penetrating hit at any distance again?

No, they don't always go down with one penetrating hit at any distance, but on most occassions they do (it depends on caliber though). If you're talking about 2.45 battle communication, then it's gone for long time now, but it's not 1s1k all the time either. When was the last time you played FH2?  ;)

Also, FH2 never worked like that, not even back in 2.0.

Must have been in 2.45 times. I left for good when Shermans withstood Panther and Pak shots back in 2013, I think. Will give it a go again.

Sooooo when is the release coming ? Before Christmas I hope ?
I know it's probably a lot of work but it's hard to wait.

I knew it was a movie theme but could not remember which one.
