" Red Army troops adopted a nickname from Mikhail Isakovsky's popular wartime song, "Katyusha", about a girl longing for her absent beloved, who has gone away on military service." :o
-
Woo hoo! ;D
-
Yeaaaaah, update! :D
-
Lets hope they will include ALL of the katyushas ;D

Everybody knows BM 14, but dont forget the BM 31!!
-
I´m still not looking that much forward to the Katyusha as to the Yak-1. All rocket launching vehicles in FH2, from the Sdkfz 251 to the Calliope Jeep, have very limited effectiveness and are more or less only used for direct fire on enemies within sight. Thus being almost suicidal.
It´s an annoyiance to aim within the arty sight and trying to get the vehicle to 0/0 when you have to change seats for every adjustment.
So Katyusha is nice but meh.
-
If you have a driver and TS3, it works well. But otherwise, you are pretty much down to saturation bombing
Something the Katyusha and willies MB were designed for
Stuka zu fuss also works a bit in that role but its spread isseznt very big
-
Hope Katyusha comes... But before that: ZIS-5.
Dang, when is da ZIS-5 coming?!?!?!
No FH mod is complete without Zis-5...
-
Hmm might have to change my avatar...

Katyusha Zis-5 in BGF ;D
Would be soooooo cool to have something like this. :D
-
Katyusha it IS!!! ;D
Excellent job devs, as always! 8)
-
Really nice model!
-
yeeeaaaah, another awesome update! Thanks devs!
But.... it says BM-13 Katyusha on Studebaker
should I expect to see models mounted on zis-5? :D
Or no Zis-5? :'(
-
Interesting to see that it comes with armored plates on the windshield.
-
Will we see katyusha on zis-5, or will this be the only version of katyusha in FH2?

I hope so.
Well, this:
Initially, ZiS-5 and ZiS-6 trucks were favoured, but the BM-13 design was soon standardised onto the newly available Lend-Lease Studebaker US6
and this:
BM-13 Katyusha on Studebaker
give us a hint that it may be upcoming. Please, please please make zis-5 katyusha (and ofcourse itself) too,devs. :D
.

.
.
My questions are:
Will the armoured plates on the windshield be raised up and down like in the US halftarck and the German hanomag?
did Studebaker trucks also serve in the US army during WW2? Will we be getting a US army texture studebaker on some maps with USA? :)
-
well, I have to admit, Studebaker is one ugly looking truck.. but the model is nicely done.
as for the shields, there are hinges on top of them, so I guess it should be possible to open them.. and I don't think we'll see the Kate on Zis-5, it is just a different platform for the same weapon and it was replaced by this one later in the war which is the current focus of the devs regarding EF
-
So no Katyusha on Zis-5 or no Zis-5 ever?
-
Yes, there should be other priorities than the Zis-5 truck. As I mentioned before the vehicle based rocket artillery in this game has rather limited use. No way we need essentially the same weapon on another truck. Your suggestion of a stupid truck starts to be annoying.
Nice looking renders! Well done! As always quality work.
:( I was so sure I had the right answer what it would be.
-
I suggested this before, not now. Im just asking questions if we will ever see the thing. ::)
-
If you asked one or maybe two times I could show some tolerance, but asking the same question four to five times within two pages is outrageous.
Hope Katyusha comes... But before that: ZIS-5.

And now please tell me how old you are, I´m curious.
-
Awesome! Will we ever see this on some kind of a night map? A night strike from a few of these would be an epic sight!
-

They dont let kids play shooting games in Turkey, you know. You could make it out ::)
We should be questioning the age of someone who cant make out the difference between a "question" and a "suggestion". ::)

I think that's what they told you when they forbade you from playing fps, but really they were just afraid you would swallow the mouse.
-
I'm curious, did the Katyusha have rotating mounts, or were the rocket rails fixed in the direction the truck was facing? I know they elevated, curious about the left to right potential. Even a couple degrees of play would be tremendously helpful.
-
As far as I know, the rails could move from left to right a little bit only. But I might be wrong tho.

Don't say we wont see 1941-42 maps. They were important years so we have to see maps from those years!
Ill throw a question to the devs: Whats so hard with the early maps? The only difference to late war maps is this: The vehicles were like t-26, t-28, panzer 2, 3 and 4 etc. I understand that mapping is hard but why couldn't you make maps from all those years from 1941 to 1945. Not just focusing to one period. Time shows what we see in EF.
-
The Zis-5 will come sooner of later, but the devs probably have a purpose why its not shown/made quite yet. :D

You won't see early maps in the first Eastern Front release. Why not? Because if the focus of the first released is narrowed as much as possible, then the content for the first release can be narrowed as much as possible, meaning the first release will take less work and therefore less time.

Thank you, that "first" i wanted to hear. I was afraid we wont see early maps at all but that "first release" saved my day.

Implying you need lateral movement (or indeed aiming) if and when you have one gun tube or "little Katja" per one metre of frontline (Red Army recommended amount when supporting assault)...
-
If the aiming with this thing is like aiming with SdKfz 251/1-II "Stuka zu Fuss" I think I'll pass. When you point it at the flagzone it's alright but changing targets it's like mental hell when you are trying to set the coordinates right and it goes way too often too much to the right or left. Wespe is pretty much the only one mobile artillery I like to use sometimes because you can move the main gun a little to the right or left instead of turning the whole vehicle which makes the aiming way easier.
Nice vehicle though. Probably not my cup of tea but will do as a transport.
-
It works like in BF42/FH 0.7, not as drastic turning radius, but not like Stuka Zu Fuss.
-
Don't you dare to take this vehicle as transport only! ;D I hate when somebody steals my Willys MB just to park it near the enemy.
-
Thanks for the update and the good looking model, I look really forward to using this one.

Not only will I steal every Katyusha every game and use it as a taxi, I will always drive it to the enemy main base to baserape and engage in general smacktard behaviour. Then, after the I die and the enemy gets the vehicle, I will whine in all chat about what a lousy team I have.
Suck it.
-
^ Apart from the stealing part, it really sounds like WoT :P
-
And Toddel delivers once again.
Great looking model. Well done! ;)
-
Is this freshly done or just hasn't been shown yet?
-
Hell yes.
-
Great update! Model looks brilliant! Excellent job!
-
The enemy will be re-naming this "Jimi's Organ" after i kill entire squads.....
:-*
-
BTW Will Katjusha be a one-seater (Like Bishop) or a two-seater (like Jeep Calliope)?
-
two-seater
-
Then it will sadly be not so much fun :(
-
You can still do the Kamikaze-Calliope with it I guess although the slow speed might hinder you.
-
No fun allowed. Dayymn! This is turning out to be like DotA 2.
-
What's "no fun allowed" about Dota2?

Don't dick around. Do not Feed, do not farm, do not play squishy characters.

It's artillery, you park it in main and shoot at spawns, that's basically what it's for. Don't need single seats for that.
-
Who needs spotters anyway? [Sarcasm and irony]
-
You need them to spot the spawns for you ;D
-
Preferably right there were the tanks and enemy artillery is ;)
St. Lo anyone?
-
Don't dick around
Obviously. It's a heavily team-oriented game. When you dick around it's fun for you but hell for the rest of the team.
Do not Feed
Same as above, you screw over your team. Equivalent of mining all your team's vehicles in FH2. Bannable offense.
do not farm
BS, that's half the game. If you're carry, this what you're made for. If you're support, you help your carry farm.
do not play squishy characters
...if you can't play them. You'll just end up feeding, effectively throwing the game.

I suspect you weren't joking at all, you just blame the rest of the team for failing the matches.
Admit it! ಠ_ಠ

Very angry when they have a mic and see me Assasinating a hero, that "was their's to oWn"
