Thanks Asator86, and welcome to the registered users :D

O wait, i see more mps in the award/maps section. Clueless ???

Those are various maps we've been testing. Some maps are simply not ready for this release yet and some others are tried to review and try out from FH2 dev applicants, Oh and an occasional Eastern Front map just to try out various new equipment from that theater.

We've got some cool maps to show off after 2.4 :)

Woot \o/

I'm finally on holidays and will be ready to play the moment the password is released....That only happened once for me and it was back when 2.2 was released....Both times are/were a major release !  :D

I'm a bit skeptical with the removal of crosshairs but I'll see. I'm more excited to know what you guys changed with the tanks. As long as you didn't change my deadly Crusader III I'm fine  :P

All in all, good work devs, tadabesters and everyone who helped making this awesome mod ! ;)

Re tanks: maybe the devs did finally find a way to have separate hitboxes in BF2 engine? So hitting the driver, tracks, or the engine gives the elusive "mobility kill"; and hitting turret, ammo, or fuel tanks gives the "snap, crackle, boom"? Even if immobilization is not possible, there could still be the distant possibility that the "movement" hitboxes give perhaps 75% of current damage and "explosive" hitboxes 125% of current damage. Would finally make it worthwhile to aim at precise spots instead of the general direction of the tank, and would make "fog shooting" much less effective, especially if hit indicators were removed.

Doubt it, but maybe they found a way to implement angles at least to some degree, so there won't be Crusaders 1-shot-killing Tigers in NA via an 1o angle...

That's some pretty wishful thinking from the both of you.  Still no way to do any of that.

well, i have no clue at all about the changes but i think we can be pretty sure that HVAP and PZGR40 are taken away from Sherman 76, Panzer IV and Puma.

Actually removel of the Crosshairs is a good thing for the inf. Combat, people usaly take there time to aim and have ther shot count instead of just unloading, then again it depends if you enter a small building/room with a mp40 and its loadet with enemys ;-P but then again when the crosshairs whas still there it whas also spray and pray, in small narrow places that will proberly newer change.

But personaly i love the removal of the crosshairs, it makes alot of thing alot more interesting. People will learn real fast the importence of aiming and using singlefire/single shot over distance or not hit a dam thing if they use a weapon with full auto fire on full auto fire over medium/long distance.

8 pages of comments, and nothing about the awards system?

It seem people either love it or don't care at all. The latter for me, although I do like the drumroll when one pops up ;)

It's great to have finally implemented alongside, since it levels the playing field for every server on this matter. I was wondering about another thing. Could you include some news about changes soundwise? Weapons, creepy snowy winds for example? Are there any?

Such a juicy week 8)
