Haven't seen anyone there in 2-3 weeks. I think once you stopped coming everyone else did too.

FH2 Help / Support / Re: Login Server Down
« on: 29-05-2015, 19:05:28 »
I am only showing one server in my browser. I am in North America for the record. Any work-around? Can we join if I have the server IP? Can someone provide the info if so?

FH2 Help / Support / Re: Cannot connect to Gamespy server
« on: 30-03-2015, 00:03:15 »
Alright, I needed to get some s**t done today anyway. Maybe change the topic or make a stickied announcement cuz "Gamespy" was a little misleading when I was looking for an answer.

Had to go help a friend with car trouble and the server was empty at 9:00 when I got back. What's happening to our tight-knit little group? Seems like the holiday season always meant an increase in players in the past. Do we need to pick a new night? Have some custom map events? Will the new map-pack bring people back?

Bug Reporting / Re: Can't login into the game
« on: 22-11-2014, 15:11:16 »
I've been having trouble with my game at start-up. I don't get that error screen though. I get the initial start screen, and after I hit "play" it goes black, but never opens the server browser screen. Not sure if it's related. My problem started yesterday, and I was eventually able to get it started.

I just jumped on to type a quick 'thank-you' for the fix, and see this little bomb dropped on my lap.
Either way, thanks for the fix. My game browser has been acting terrible the last couple days

I've never seen a real problem in team-stacking. Maybe when there's only 20 people in the server or something, but usually there are a few top-notch players on both sides, and usually plenty of good S/L's.

« on: 28-06-2014, 17:06:16 »If the MP40 and MG42 are usually available, then what is the problem?
he's a sniper whore thats what
hahahaaha sorry hpsf!
GUILTY, as charged. My complaint about kit limits doesn't have to do with the sniper kit for the most part, except I would like to see them available closer to the front in some cases. I would also agree that one kit that NEEDS limiting is the sniper class. Original BF1942 had way too many snipers (and never any spotters). I like the WaW system of kit limits, or what I have seen of it anyway. It's also frustrating to find pick-up kits sometimes. I have been playing for about 2 years now, and still not really sure where a lot of the kits can be found. Same goes for ammo. I would really like to see ammo more available, and easier to find.
As for what kit I am looking for, it depends on the map, and the situation. It's not always about which main gun I am looking for either, but the kit, and some of the other items. That's one reason I am such a proponent of easy to find pick-up kits, and why I wish we could customize the kits more. Some maps have really questionable load-outs, like spawn-able A/T kits on primarily infantry maps. In a case like that, I would much rather see a larger variety on infantry type kits available at spawn.

Off-Topic / Re: The Great thread of Movies/Documentaries regarding WW1/WW2/Other conflicts
« on: 27-06-2014, 05:06:21 »
Ok, just read the whole thread. I can't believe "Cross of Iron" (1977) wasn't mentioned.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0074695/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
From IMDB: "In 1943, in the Russian front, the decorated leader Rolf Steiner is promoted to Sergeant after another successful mission. Meanwhile the upper-class and arrogant Prussian Captain Hauptmann Stransky is assigned as the new commander of his squad." From legendary director Sam Peckinpah, he was know for being very bloody and gory for his day. Rare for an American WWII film from the 70's to be about the Eastern front. Features James Coburn and lots of PPSH action.
Watch it on Youtube-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-_on1wmZxI
For the classic 'steal the Nazi gold from behind enemy lines' plot-line, there's "The Last Drop" (2006). Not much for WWII story, more for the setting, but some funny moments, and simply excellent characters. Billy Zane (who played 'Val' in "Memphis Belle") has one of the best lines as a Canadian pilot. I don't want to give any spoilers.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0398029/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
It looks like the whole movie can be seen on TheTube-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rcHnquxlMIg
"Max Manus: Man of War" (2008)-True story of Max Manus, Norwegian resistance fighter and saboteur.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1029235/?ref_=nv_sr_1 Sorry, I couldn't find a free, streaming version of this one. It used to be on Netflix, it might still be.
"Company of Heroes" (2013) Was absolutely dreadful. I couldn't even finish it. How do you make a boring WWII movie!?! Not even Tom Sizemore (Sgt Horvath from "Saving Private Ryan") could save this movie.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2555426/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
I can't believe nobody mentioned the 2013 Russian film "Stalingrad" (I saw a couple people talked about the German (1993) one) and also "Attack on Leningrad" (2009) both are must-see films even if you aren't a WWII film buff.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0432314/?ref_=fn_al_tt_2 IMDB has a link to watch the movie if you follow my link to IMDB...

I haven't read the whole thread so I am sorry if they were already mentioned, but these are a couple of my favs.
"The Fallen" (2004 Ari Taub)-Deals with a more rarely seen Italian campaign, features German, Italian, and American troops (subtitled, not dubbed or all English!) around the Gothic line I believe. The story-lines are a little more atypical than many WWII movies. (The Italian soldier that shoots an Italian deer with a German rifle) Not a lot of combat scenes but the ones they have are good, and there's a couple funny moments, and good acting/characters.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0382721/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
Watch it for free at Hulu-http://www.hulu.com/watch/473694
"Stalingrad" 2013 (Russia)-Probably mentioned, and seen by most WWII movie buffs, so I won't say much about it other than it has some of the best combat action scenes and choreography I have seen in a WWII movie. Every bit as good, if not better than the German (1992) film "Stalingrad"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1966566/?ref_=nv_sr_1
"Come and See" (1985)- (from IMDB) "During WWII, a Belarusian boy is thrust into the atrocities of war, fighting with a hopelessly unequipped Soviet resistance movement against ruthless German forces. Witnessing scenes of abject terror and surviving horrifying situations, he loses his innocence and then his mind." This movie is brutal, but cinematically beautiful.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091251/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
"Brestskaya krepost" (original title) a.k.a. "The Brest Fortress" and "Fortress of War".-Just a really good historically accurate(?) depiction of the opening stages of Barbarossa and the siege of The Brest Fortress on the Eastern front.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1343703/?ref_=ttrel_rel_tt
Watch it on Youtube-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0J_wyXGa9dc
Of course, there's always THIS!-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_World_War_II_films

When I saw this thread, the way it was worded made me think it was started by one or more of the game developers. I should've checked the OP and I wouldn't have bothered posting.
