I think I crashed once or twice so far while playing around every second day for 2-3 hours. The one I clearly remember was at the end of a round. In 2.45 I never crashed. But yea, it still seems to be rare for me.

Also what is this server view that you speak of?

I play normally through the FH2 launcher.

You can run game from your web browser by clicking on the joystick icon under the server here:

or here:

http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de/fh2_gameserver.php

It will automatically connect you with the server you want.

Here's a question: Is Tiger now a 2-shot kill for 17pdr even from the sides and rear or is it some kind of anomaly that I've encountered?

With the new laucher will there be more often minor updates in the future? Or will it be like in the past, one or two big updates per year?

There will probably be a minor patch soon. I just implemented the balance changes for Omaha and Gold, but there will be some more bug fixes that are being worked on, as well as maybe an sp mode for Omaha Beach. So yes, there will be more frequent updates, but also not an update every week or something like that (unless a game breaking bug appears).

May I ask if there will also be more frequent releases of contents? Assuming we get a new map for an existing theatre, would that be shared right after it is ready via the launcher or would we have to wait for a full release? Speaking of it, will there still be big releases or will there be numerous small ones?

Updater is beyond spectacular. You guys have really set yourselves up for success with this major move.

I'll take the updater over 10 Omaha Beach maps.

Speaking of Omaha, I was a big proponent of having an Omaha map in FH. When I was a young lad, many, many years ago, I could not wrap my head around why this map was not in the game. It's an incredibly well known battle (yes, the less well known fights are what FH is all about, but still) and would be holy zomg-l33tzorz kewl. Then I joined the forums, learned how modding works, learned how gosh-darned hard it is to make ANY map, let alone one as exceedingly difficult as trying to depict the fight for Omaha. Much of this I learned from TS4EVER (foreshadowing anyone?). Once I learned all this, I understood and was at peace. Then Lent for 2014 came around and I gave up FH as my Lenten sacrifice. Then Easter Sunday rolls around, I log onto the FH homepage and see that 2.46 is out ("F*** yea!" says I), scroll down further to see... Omaha... I lost it. "JESUS IS RISEN!"

Extremely happy it is now in game.

I need to ask though TS, around when did you start working on fixing up the Omaha map, and what was your motivation for taking the project on? It would be neat if it was some of the public forums discussions, but I'm curious as to what inspired you. Thanks!

I think Mr. Cheese/Remick started this map first.

Unlike 2.45, I've been enjoying 2.46 quite tremendously with my FHM buddies. Really fun change of pace to Planetside 2.

Just played for the first time in like a year.  Brilliant!  And we seem to have FJ uniforms now, I see!
