Hello and welcome back to another update of Forgotten Hope. It has been a very hard and busy two weeks for everyone working on Forgotten Hope 2.2, both developers and testers. We have gone through three release candidates, we had to fix numerous issues caused by the Battlefield 2 patch which was released just three days ago and our testers have been making sure everything works pretty much around the clock all week long. But today, we have finally put the finishing touches to our Normandy Theater of War and are proud to announce that Forgotten Hope 2.2 will be released...
Tomorrow, Saturday the 5th of September 2009 at 18:00 UTC
Our original plan was to release today, but Battlefield 2 patch 1.5 and some serious bugs that managed to sneak through the release candidates meant that everyone had to work on getting everything finished right up until today. This is why we did not want to post an announcement the week before the release, like we normally do.
Read the rest of this update on our website (http://forgottenhope.warumdarum.de/main.php?lang=english&id_news=297).

Aww had a big grin when watching the video really looking forward to playing this thanks for all the hard work.
-
I was in a "too much awesomeness at once" coma when watching the video!
-
I seriously just freaked out! Good things come to those who wait, see ya on the battlefield boys!
Bang up job devs, you fellas never fail to come through. Thanks again.
-
This makes me more excited than my girlfriend, this is a good and bad thing.
Thank you Dev team. This will be amazing I am sure.
-
Well done dev's ! Silly question maybe but does the bf2 v1.5 patch need to be installed or not ?
See you all on the battlefield !
-
Well done dev's ! Silly question maybe but does the bf2 v1.5 patch need to be installed or not ?
Affirmative
-
Yes, BF2 1.5 can now be (and needs to be!) installed so you can play 2.2! More information about this comes on saturday on the newspage. :)
Installation instructions and so on. Remember, this is a full install and only for BF2 1.5. So make sure you get 1.5 and patch BF2 and then install 2.2 (fresh install, NO previous versions required).
-
yeeeeahaaaa I love FH2
-
Oh god, why such a big news post? It's gonna take me ages to translate it D:
Oh well, I guess it compensates :D
-
Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is the moment we have all been waiting for (some of us for years). Other games have come and gone, but Forgotten Hope remains. I have been playing FH1 and FH2 longer than any other game, and still enjoy both. Thank you to everyone who has perservered and put their blood, sweat and tears into creating this game. :)
-
Oh, I almost forgot...THE FLAMETHROWER IS HERE! MWahahahahahah!
-
Oh yes i was fearing that university would prevent me from playing it on release but you released the weekend before school began thank you!
-
OMG, O-M-*-G! I have been lurking on the forums long time now, even registered, but this was indeed a great reason to post something ;D
Finally the day has come! I can't even imagine the fun Normandy theatre will provide, with improved BF2 1.5 hit detection (yes indeed, improved, also in FH. Tested it about 3-4 hours with friend in Gunnie's server yesterday, and works much, much better now.)
It will be so much fun!
Thank you devs, testers and everyone who made this great mod possible! Thank you so much!
Over and out, see you on the battlefield!

Wow guys!You just made my weekend! 3D Ironsights FTW! Omg I can't belive the sheer awesomeness of this update! And the great thing is you all took your time to make it compatible with the new patch! I was holdin off on getting the patch because I wanted this mod more than the Booster packs, ability to play without the dvd in the drive and widescreen support. Now I can't wait to get that BAR in my virtual hands with 3D Iron sights! 8)
Koudos mates, koudos...
Oh, I almost forgot...THE FLAMETHROWER IS HERE! MWahahahahahah!
Haha yeah, I remember you wanting a flamethrower for a while! :P
-
YAAAAAAAAAAAY :D
That are wonderful news...And the trailer is awesome!
Thank you Devs and Testers :)
-
dang, for the release date to happen so soon, I didn't see it coming! I guess that means I have to update the boot camp map once this version comes out.
-
I have a lot of work I needed to do this weekend for school that looks like it might have to be delayed, but I guess I'll live. :P
Also, that trailer is incredible.

I JUST got back from Disneyland and THIS is what is waiting for me??? I LOVE THIS.

Vehicles
--------
* Flak 18 mouselook (kev4000)
Just one example. All AT guns now allow you to use free look (like on tanks) to look around you instead of having to turn the whole gun.
-
The 3D ironsights are a huge improvement. When I made them, I had to redo each animation around 2 - 5 times in order to get the testers (and myself!) satisfied. At first, we weren't satisfied with many models, however Toddel and Remdul helped out up-polying many models for it, and we're satisfied with every one of them. One of the main advantages is we can have the bolts of all the automatics moving, which is an a lot larger advantage in 2.2 than in 2.15 considering the amount of automatic weapons. However, the screenshots still do not do justice to the ironsights. Also, since the ironsights do not have to load a 512x512 texture, it saves a lot of resources.
Also, worth a mention. Battlefield 2 operates at 1800 ticks per minute, meaning all fire rates must be a division of 1800. The MG42, at 1200rpm, is not supported by the BF2 engine. To circumvent this, we have it firing at 2 shots at a time, at 600rpm. Unfortunately, this means you cannot fire one and one shot. Also, this means the ammo counter is off. The amount of ammo is in reality twice that the ammo counter shows. It'll start with a 125 round belt, but in reality this is 250. If it shows 65 rounds left, in reality you have 130 rounds left.
-
The Sten MKII(S) seems to be in the british commando kits, the Volksgewehr/Luftfausts probably lack animations and are not int he build.

we made it me, we made it. *looks off into the sunset*

All of those "secret weapons" type stuff are probably in the files of the mod, but none of them have been properly added to the game AFAIK.
-
like the uboat, carrier, swordfish etc.

They all work perfectly. Ive used them. only a few kinks.

Like missing animation right? These weapons probably work fine minus a few detailes.

I think they are just the models and stuff without any coding whatsoever.

Just a friendly reminder on the Wallpapers section on the forums ;)
http://fhpubforum.warumdarum.de/index.php?topic=1001.0
If you can't find a size that fits your screen, I'll make some custom sizes on sunday.. ;)
and HELL YEAH, as soon as I get back home from my work trip tomorrow I'll be seeing you guys online! :D
-
A lot of stuff shown in the changelog is NOT in the 2.2 build whatsoever. As usual, exactly what, you'll have to wait and find out ;)

Now that you mention it, it does kinda look like him.
For future faces we'll also need Clint Eastwood, Sean Connery, Tom Hanks, and John Wayne.
-
seconded. motion passed. *bangs gavel*
-
does this mean we'll see the bolt from certain guns move while using ironsights?
-
hope sp, but probably not, in my opinion.

Nice works!!!

* Make the beaufighter fly a bit better and implement nosecam and front chase cameras (ctz)
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????
-
So im takeing a big guess!...and saying there are no paratrooper skins for the americans?
-
* Make the beaufighter fly a bit better and implement nosecam and front chase cameras (ctz)
Thats of course...
Shit!
*Runs*
-
does this mean we'll see the bolt from certain guns move while using ironsights?
No. Which is OK since IRL you wouldn't work the bolt while looking directly down the sights because you would smack yourself in the face...not to mention it would be very awkward.
*EDIT* Oh, I thought you were talking about rifles. Yes, bolts on automatic/semi-automatic guns and such move while in ironsights! :D
-
hope sp, but probably not, in my opinion.
We wouldn't think about leaving out those who cannot enjoy playing FH2 in multiplayer.
Therefore, there are now 14 SP/Co-op supported maps in v.2.2. We have an extremely talented SP Developer who picked up where Bizness left off and has continued working on making sure all our maps have SP/Co-op support.
Unfortunately, WinterHilf has not been with us long enough to get all the maps meshed yet for SP/Co-op support, but he is working on them. Creating SP/Co-op maps is a very time consuming process, when it comes to meshing the maps for the bots. There is alot of trial and error that takes place to ensure that the bots do what you want and go where you want them to go. You can almost compare it to actually creating the map in the time it can take to add Bot support to it.
In either case, we do have some more of the maps in progress, besides the ones included in this release. I will say that having played alot of SP/Co-op to test it in v.2.2. The bots will give you a pretty good work out if you have the ai setting set appropriately.
-
um, I misspelled 'so'. I was referring to 3d sights on Bold action rifles, haha. ;D
-
actually I'm thinking more about the bolts from semi-auto rifles, machine guns, and sub-machine guns...
-
actually I'm thinking more about the bolts from semi-auto rifles, machine guns, and sub-machine guns...
Yes, I edited my post. I misread your post at first.
And to answer you again: Yes, you will be able to see the bolts and such move while using ironsights with semi-auto rifles, sub-machine guns, etc! :)
-
actually I'm thinking more about the bolts from semi-auto rifles, machine guns, and sub-machine guns...
Yes of course these move with 3D ironsights.
-
What?!!!!you must be kidding me, right?!!! I just can't believe my eyes!!!!!
ahahahahhahahahaha !!!!!!!!!!

HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO SAY IT???
This does NOT happen! It is INCREDIBLY easy to cycle while looking down the sights....:

And a friend doing rapid fire with a P14:

Not the most accurate, obviously if you want accuracy you take your time on the shot, BUT it is very possible to do rapid fire, without dropping sights.
-
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you devs we (the community) will use this mod to please our selves in your honor,........
cant wait to take on a panther in my trusty Sherman........ he he he we'll see who wins ;D
-
You don't want that...really!
And you will ask why
Because if we code this you will be stuck in ironsight mode meanwhile you work the bolt 2-3 seconds, and you can't run during those eeeeeendless seconds. We tried it, it sucked. The old Red Orchestra versions had this feature and the players complained (rightfully) non stop against this feature, that's why in RO you must click to rebolt, because it gives you the option to bring down the ironsight and run away. In BF2 we can't code this.
Capisce?
Now check your caps lock or I whip you to death

I've just been watching the FH2.2 German Teaser again (again Ode to Joy equals Win) and I noticed something that has been often asked for...

I also noticed a soldier on the left side of the screen near the end of the video running diagonally across the path of a speeding tank, probably by mistake.

No, I completely understand that, Lobo. The question is not if it should be ingame, I don't think it should, due mostly to those reasons. However someone saying its not done ingame because its awkward/impossible to do, that irks me ;)

I don't know man. I tried this last time you guys had a rant about this and found that if I really kept my eye on the sights and pulled the bolt all the way back I would whack myself on the nose. That and it just does not feel right IMO. And on top of that the bolt handle is still popping up and obscuring your sight picture anyway.
-
You have your eye too far forward lainer, just keep it a nice range away, and you will have to unconciously raise your head VERY slightly, as you can see in my vids.
-
Well that reminds me of my first shot whit a Rifle... damn hurts.
-
Were you holding it right? What kinda rifle?
-
I am a bit drunk, and yet I still coem back to these forums later and say how stoked I am for 2.2!! The day has arrived! Now I go to bed.

Made an account just to commemorate this moment! I mean wow here I am about to hit the sack when a random visit to the FH site yields what we've all been waiting for (minus those accursed betatesters). All I can say is...I don't think I'll be able to have enough babies to name them after the FH crew...sorry :P

Congratulations devs, you really pulled it off big time !!
To the dev who made the trailer. Excellent choice in music, timing and camera views! I literally had goosebumps.
See you all tonight on the battlefields.

Hey guys, my birthday is next Friday, any chance you could wait until then? ;)
Seriously, I had a look of childish glee on my face as I watched the trailer. Great work, and I look forward to killing y'all in the fields of France tonight.

Damn Meadow, if i would know that we delayed of course. Sorry man.
-
Hoorai! The day finally arrived! People SEEEED ;D
Here in the States I'm going to bed now but I'm leaving my computer on to seed the torrent.

I just had a thought:The Allies teaser video music could/should be Beethovens 5th Symphony simply because of this

Cheers to everyone!
downloading with 2mb down<3
-
And now the fun really starts!
-
We will have to learn everything from begin.

Well, I'm gonna have to wait a couple of days... But the video kills me... A teaser, alright - Just enuff, but not too much to give away any secrets
I played RO yesterday night and early this morning... And I was missing FH... Only game I know with realistic vehicle to human size... that charge reminds me of Band of Brothers, the Carentan episode
You guys are just terrific... Actually adding stuff that aren't essential but just make the game cool - Don't think I know any other gameplay which compares, and 2.2 appears to have taken it up a notch... There are people on sites everywhere that are probably doing backflips... the lurkers
Can't wait for the release inspite of my DL speed (Between 0.6kb - 30kb/s), all those tidbits that will be shown :-D

Patch- 1.5 Installed
Downloading- Fh2.2 1hour :) Anyone cracked the password yet?
Do i need to uninstall and remove 2.5 before i apply 2.2?
(http://www.celebratefamilychurch.com/files/CELEBRATE/celebrate.jpg)
-
Yaaaaaaayy!
-
I was already in kind of shock when I saw The Road to Forgotten Hope 2.2: Part 1 but inclusion of 3D iron sights paralysed me completely. OMG I can't believe you actually made them! :o
Congrats and thanks to all those who had part in making 2.2 possible. :D
-
Noone told what happend to "medals" system in 2.2.
Is that kind of surprise?
-
It's AWESOME! I will play my favorite game where i live in normandy ahah i like that! :o ;D
Thanks again for this game!
-
...With happiness.
hehehe, yep..
You called it NCOL ;)
-
0:34 startled the living shit outta me. Alls those germans(and german tanks) really came out of nowhere. I can't wait to play! ;D
-
I'm disappointed about the 3D sights :(
Of course, they look much better than I expected (see PR), but still...
You managed to keep the blur effect when in aiming down the sight! Rumors has it that doing that was impossible.
Anyway! great update, shocked to say the least. Just yesterday people were saying "They will release it tonight or tomorrow! otherwise in a week", and you did.
But I would wish for a release like usual, passworded torrent on wednesday and release on friday (plus I'm busy tonight and can't play)
-
* All classes now drop the correct weapons they carrying (toddel)
Wait! Is this drop-kit animation like the BF2 load video? From the minimod?
-
I'm disappointed about the 3D sights :(
Me too. They are shitloads better than the 2D ones and look much better. That and.. wait.. what?
-

-
LOL.. I hear you...At first I was oh no, I liked the out of focus look, but then again... From the pictures, it seems like the 'gautian' blurr FH2 uses solves this, and there is a hell lot more you can do with 3d than 2d
Ok, I don't care if it is in or not, but what IS this?!
* Reduce c47 sound radius (ctz)
-
You will see :P
-
Raises alot of questions, don't it?
* Added German and US Paratrooper classes for PHL (lightning)
-
I think this is a ambiant sound with C47 crossing the map!
-
Ni-ice....
-
Raises alot of questions, don't it?
* Added German and US Paratrooper classes for PHL (lightning)
You will, you will see. ;D
Damn, the people are going crazy.
-
Haha its great to wake up and see that with all the bricks you people have been shitting while I was gone, I could build a friggin' wall of china. ;D
-
I'm disappointed about the 3D sights :(
Of course, they look much better than I expected (see PR), but still...
If your disappointment comes from doubt, let me take away ALL doubt by saying that this is one of the most awesome new feature in FH2, improving the flow of infantry combat by far, and I'm one of those who didn't originally like the idea of 3d sights.
We've had the 3D sights for awhile now, yes even through these posts here on the forums asking about 3D sights, where we all said we'd rather die than see 3D sights in FH2 ( we're bastards, we really are) But after testing and using the 3d sights and then go back to the old 2D sights for a public game of 2.15.. I have to say, I'd rather die than see FH2 go back to 2D sights.
It might be a bit weird at first, but you quickly adapt to the new sights, and you're faster to adapt to the new 3d sights than go back to the old 2d sights. There were opposition when the 3d sights were first introduced in the beta, but I don't know any better than everyone love the new sights, both those who originally approved and originally opposed.
-
Oh, and any chance someone could upload the hi resolution of all videos to be shown when all is done? I want a DL to add to my FH2 DVD :-)
-
Haha its great to wake up and see that with all the bricks you people have been shitting while I was gone, I could build a friggin' wall of china. ;D
Haha, same for me. ;D
-
Juhu finally! Desertsand makes someone depressive after a while ;D
Congratulation for all involved, asthonishing update but i suspected no less from our gods 8) Forgotten Hope is and will be the best Tactical Shooter for years to come.
One thing that pierces through my eyes the most in the changelog is this:
* Planes 20% quicker (ctz)
Stukabombers love you ctz
Looks like i found a good reason to end my lurking around.
Unfortuately i cant use my old nickname in FH2 so, and i hope a few remember me from FH1, my new nick is Blitzkrieghannes (also old i know but somehow i never found the time to tell anyone:D). See you on the battlefield.
-
I remember you, Karl. :) Welcome back!
-
Thanks for all the hard work both the devs and the beta testers have put in to make this mod possible!
You guys rock!
-
my ass hurts :( and there is bricks everywhere :D
-
Great update Mr. Devs and Miss Tester ;D
wot O_o you talkin' to me?
-
I just woke up and was like so tired, put on my computer an went strait to the fh site. It was just like being high on drugs, running around and shouting in my flat like a crazy person.
FH2 is my fix from now on, theres no better
Thank you devs for suppling me with the drugs ;D
-
So the final release is 2.6G big? thats ok, only problem is that my torrent dloads are slow.
2.2 Yaaay^_^
-
At first I couldn't believe it as I didn't expect this myself... but looks like it's true
:-* @ devs and testers (in a brotherly way, of course)
-
Brilliant! Pure Brilliant!
Does anybody know of a good link where I can download the 1.5 patch?
Cheers for the dev-team and the testers. Hipp Hipp Hooray!
EDIT: Never mind, I found a good link for 1.5.
-
Alot of them dotting the forum.. Offline, some... Some in General discussion, and one is a torrent DL if you prefer
-
Much downloading going on:
-
That sole Belgian guy is me!!! ;D :D ;)
Thanks for seeding, like Captian bertorelli, iya giva you 3 kisses! :-* :-* :-*

I must say that this comforts me, the only reference I have to 3d ironsights is PR, and to be honest.. I think they look like pure shit.
Another doubt I have is that when looking at the 3d ironsight screenshots, it feels like the weapon is too far away (though I have no experience of guns), it feels like he's holding the gun in front of him, not using his shoulders as support.
But as stated, they do look much more detailed than the PR ironsights... I'll take your word for it.
-
Yes.. you hold the gun against your shoulder. Noy your eye against the sight :P
-
I am so glad I logged on thismorning, BEST HANGOVER CURE EVER!!!!
Well done to all involved, immense amount of work and a great way to kick off this historic weekend.
-
Hell yeah!
Just awesome, just awesome! Too bad I only have the weekend to play, but that means I´ll have to use every minute (which I´ll do ;)). ALso: Hooray to 3d ironsights!
Btw: We need more seeders for the torrent download as it´s waaay to slow right now.
-
Yay!
-
Yes.. you hold the gun against your shoulder. Noy your eye against the sight :P
Yes I know. But it just feels like it.
-
Btw: We need more seeders for the torrent download as it´s waaay to slow right now.
I downloaded it in like 30 min, I will be seeding for the rest of the day
-
Do we need the 1.5 patch for this?
-
Do we need the 1.5 patch for this?
Yes.
-
Does anybody have a fast downloadlink for it :P?
-
:-X need more seeders download speed 50kb/s upload speed 120kb/s time left 15hours.Any other download link live?
-
Does anybody have a fast downloadlink for it :P?
Unfortunately we only have the torrent link.
Btw: My asshole of brother decided to bitch around because the torrent slows down our internet, now I´ve got to wait untill there´s a non-torrent download *cursesloudly*
-
Nice. this made my day! :D
-
Wow this was some nice news to wake up too!
Thank you devs for the hard work -looking forward to playing this awsome mod... TODAY!! :o
-
http://speltorrents.se/details.php?id=1424 (http://speltorrents.se/details.php?id=1424)
Good speed!
-
Cool! can`t wait to test it, the new improvements are fucking awesome ;D
but my goddamn download will still take me about 4 to 5 hours, aaaaaaaah!!
-
:( Why is the server not crashing like in the old days hehehehehehe
-
so we dont need 1.5?
And after biking 15 km this newsupdate got me all WAT TEH FAACK.
Great work.
-
I think I'm going to be in trouble from Monday... when ppl stop seeding, Well, October 1st, here I come :-(
Wait, the train... THE TRAIN!! it is use-able... I mean... Can it really..can it really...! *Holds heart and dies*
-
so we dont need 1.5?
GET 1.5 AND INSTALL IT! YOU NEED IT TO RUN 2.2!
-
so we dont need 1.5?
Yes we need it...
-
Wait, the train... THE TRAIN!! it is use-able... I mean... Can it really..can it really...! *Holds heart and dies*
Wouldn't be much of a train if it didn't move would it?

Most Online Today: 149. Most Online Ever: 149 (Today at 12:40:56)
^^
-
Its a MIRACLE!! Oh, btw... about the videos... Any possibility of getting em in full res for downloading?
-
Now be prepared to be owned by betatesters and for the third surprise trailer :D.
I have been gone for a while and when I come back this is up. Nice. Although the whole one day before notice is too much of a rushed decision IMHO. I hear complaints of torrent going 20kb/s.
-
I'm trying to download patch 1.5 but i cant find a decent downloadlink ffs!
-
Now be prepared to be owned by betatesters and for the third surprise trailer :D.
Wait... third trailer? We've only seen one so far.

"There will be a trailer of the Allied forces in Normandy tomorrow*."

When installing BF2 patch 1.5:
Do I need to completely reinstall the game? Or can I just patch 1.5 over the earlier 1.41 patch?
-
Nooo!!! I hate it when I have to mess with files! Something always goes wrong!
-
Download complete, seeding at approx 63 kbps for you folks and waiting for the password. 8)
-
Can we please get a normal download as soon as possible?!
Maybe in that way some people can play it faster.
Me (and a lot of (mostly euro) players) are getting it in very slowly, around 30/40 kb/s so that would take us at least 1 to 3 days to download with things like bitlord.
-
"Saturday the 5th of September 2009 at 18:00 UTC"

*Jump everywhere* Thanks for this awesome release, I already love the 3D ironsight :]
-
"Saturday the 5th of September 2009 at 18:00 UTC"
:I
Same as 6 PM GMT + 1?
Yes, if by +1 you mean +1 second.
UTC and GMT are generally speaking the same time. The difference is that a second in GMT time is defined as 1/60th of 1/60th of 1/24th earth rotation and one second in UTC is defined as 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium 133 atom.
Because the rotational speed of the earth is not constant (it is slowing down), the GMT second is not a constant, therefor UTC time is more accurate than GMT time.
To make sure both times are synchronised, leap seconds are added to UTC time, so the difference between UTC and GMT is never more than 0.9 seconds.
-
PM GMT +1, thats special, haven't heard that before.
UTC = GMT
so 1800 UTC = 1900 GMT+1.
-
Toddel it was good to see someone from Ftn infiltrated "the company" ;)
To the other eurotorrenters; something must be wrong with your connection. I have a 4mb connection and downloaded 2.2 in 4 hours and am seeding now with 50 kb (somehow slow but i have everything maxed out).
-
PM GMT +1, thats special, haven't heard that before.
UTC = GMT

18 = 19 + 1 ???
-
UTC is the same as GMT.
Norway is GMT+2 during Summer.
18:00 +2 = 20:00 in Norway.
-
I am really confused with this torrent file, i've downloaded a .txt file, nothing that resembles a torrent. is this right?
-

I have 24 Mbit and downloading at 80 kb/s. :/
-
And I have 3Mbit and download at 70 kb/s. It was 120 kb/s few minutes ago but its been slowing down for some reason. :(
Seems to jump between 60-120kb/s. :/
-
OMG !
I just woke up and saw this ! Amazing, I'll be able to play before the start of the semester, thanks to all devs :D
Now speed up little torrent....
-
Remember lads, give you fellow players a hand! seed those torrents!
-
UTC is the same as GMT.
Norway is GMT+2 during Summer.
18:00 +2 = 20:00 in Norway.
Ah, ok, thanks for clearing that up.
-
And correct me if im wrong, but the UK is still in BST, so that means 7pm for anyone that it applies to.
-
Raises alot of questions, don't it?
* Added German and US Paratrooper classes for PHL (lightning)
Does that mean there will be skins for paratroopers?..or the kit simply just has a parachute.
(I guess what im saying is "will you be playing as a ranger model,rather then playing in a US paratrooper skin?")
-
Paratroopers and Fallschirmjäger have pistols on all kits. Other than that, the names of some Fallschirmjäger classes are different than the Wehrmacht classes. Schütze become Jäger, for example. I'm not sure if these changes are actually used though.
There are no different models or skins.
-
Yaaaaaaaaaay!
Finally!
Too bad I'm going away for tonight.. I'll try to sneak back home asap though ;D
-
Pause the Axis trailer at 00:30 and run this song alongside it, kinda fits :-*

Clicks on FH homepage and then....

Brilliant update that video got me all worked up, big thanks to all the devs & testers for getting this out the door cannot wait!!!!
-
Omg stop all the metal bs
-
btw is the ranking system included?
-
btw is the ranking system included?
I was hoping someone would bring it up...

It was included in 2.15, but was never activated. I'm not sure if it will be activated with this patch though.

Ah,i see..well that's a shame. :/
Thank you for clearing that up lightning.
-
Thank you, thank you , thank you, for releasing o a Saturday and not a Tuesday or something ;D.
-
took me 1hour and 30 min to download ;D
Have someone cracked the password yet?
-
Hope so! ;D
-
Selling Torrent password, 150 euros. Get it now people!
-
I am really confused with this torrent file, i've downloaded a .txt file, nothing that resembles a torrent. is this right?
That will be the torret file... And its tiny, right? You need utorrent or another torrent app to use that file to download the actual thing... get utorrent or such, and you'd see that the file changes
-
Download speed sucks... 60% in 7h...
-
* Add Battle of Keren for testing (ctz)
I presume this map is not in 2.2, any chance to see it in a future release ?
And I saw that the Dorchester will be the Command vehicle in Normandy too, what will the German get ?
-
One question; How many maps are WIP that won't be released in 2.2?
-
That is something for you to figure out.
Watch the test server alot and bribe mappers.
-
When i read it TEARS OF JOY , boom.Never happen to me i guess this game is part of me now.
Good job devs.

I'm disappointed about the 3D sights :(
Of course, they look much better than I expected (see PR), but still...
You managed to keep the blur effect when in aiming down the sight! Rumors has it that doing that was impossible.
No, trust in us, they are awesome beyond belief, the screenshots don't make them justice, you must feel them ingame, is a totally new experience.
I was exceptic when this change was proposed (basically because it meant a helluva work to poly up the african weapons, that were not modeled with 3D sights in mind), but when I first tested ingame I inmediately fall in love. And 2D-3D sights were terrible with semiatomatic rifles, it was like to push a picture in front of your eyes, pathetic.
And yes, they have blur effect just like the old ones, the inmersion is top of the pops

I guess I should have learned to trust you in your judgements, you've made few faults (one including the reduction of suppression effect;) )
But I get your meaning, I trust that they are better now.
As I said, the only reference I have of 3d sights in BF2 mods is PR, and those suck.
-
speed on the torrent is 80MB/s upload devided by 1455 leechers = 55KB/s down for everyone
not much but i should increase over time
getting faster every mimnute
87mb/s upload total now
-
Alright, done downloading !
-
35 minutes left :D
-
And now pray it is not a corrupt file ;)
-
And now pray it is not a corrupt file ;)
Hahaha that would be hilariously awful
-
torrents can have a verification after downloading
just do that and if some parts are corrupt they will be redownloaded
for this you need to stop seeding and then richgt clikc the torrent and select "Force Re-Check"
if thats done and everything is fine dont forget to put the torrent back on seeding
-
The torrent is really slow for me, why did a buddy of mine down the street download it in half an hour or so? I've now used 6 hours and is 62% average speed is 80kb i have a 12mbit adsl line.
-
And now pray it is not a corrupt file ;)
Heh, just downloaded 2.2 this morning and I did had corrupt files. Both 1/2 and 2/2. Morning wasted downloading :-\
-

Got a 10 mbit connection and getting 100-150 kbs average.. so not exactly the fastest torrent i have tryed but it's getting there.
-
BAd stuff Fuchsie, that sucks bro
Well it was ok, I had all day. After that I downloaded it with FireFox but at 79% FireFox crashed so that was another one wasted, then I tried it again and now I got it installed and running.
Sorry Biiviz, don't want to scare you honey.

if your torrent download is corrupted USE THE RE-CHECK function. it will then redownload the broken parts.
no need to download the whole thing again.
and if you download huge files(like the fh2 installer files) from http/ftp ALWAYS use download managers. browsers most times have trouble with the file size and crash or give you corrupt downloads.
be smart and follow this advise or live with the consequences

Seed seed seed!

-
But the torrent will not let me ReCheck my Dled file.
And what the hell?! damn you EA games
Why the goddamn patch takes so loong! 7h Opens and downloaded only 48%... man this sucks alot.
I dont want the damn Booster packs, they should be optional.
-
I think I am going to OD on FH (again) . WOOO FLIPPIN HOOO !
-
2 hours and 3 minutes... plus 1 - Wait for it, wait for it...
Any word on SP? Maps done, vehicles corrected across theaters?
-
Shit me, the timining of this release is pretty much perfect, I've just this second got back from my holiday to Normandy. Although a nice 10 hour download for 1.5 patch, and then god knows what for 2.2 means i wont be playing anything for a while.
-
My wife just called me from work and when I told her that Normandy was released she hung up on me .... is this a great game or what ?
Happy Hunting , Gentlemen .
(btw , my torrent has finally ramped up to 400 kB/s hoohah . see you in about 90 min )

Lmao, nice one ;)

Therefore, there are now 14 SP/Co-op supported maps in v.2.2. We have an extremely talented SP Developer who picked up where Bizness left off and has continued working on making sure all our maps have SP/Co-op support.
Wait 14? I knew the BFSP modders had all maps from North Africa but Mareth, that was 15! Does that mean only 1 Normandy map is bot supported? Lebeisey
And if so, can those being done be finished and uploaded as single maps? Cuz most Spers wont mind replacing non-functionals with functionals since most don't even go online
-
No, I completely understand that, Lobo. The question is not if it should be ingame, I don't think it should, due mostly to those reasons. However someone saying its not done ingame because its awkward/impossible to do, that irks me ;)
Sorry, VM! I had Lainer's posted experience in mind when I said that. I have never shot a rifle before, but I had thought Lainer's point made sense when I heard it several months back. Thanks for showing those videos! ;D
-
I might be late to the party for this, but I don't see crosshairs in the Allied vid. Cool stuff!!!!!
Anyways, no torrent for me means I'll start it up in a few hours.
Btw, for those of us who won't be able to play in half an hour, could we have some tips and tricks so we won't be floundering around when the torrenters start to get their Normandy feet?
Things like the usage of projectile AT, air rockets, the new plane system, rocket artillery,...just rocket things....Rockets!!!!!
-
My only tip for rockets is to aim high, take the slow speed into account and try not to fill yer pants with jizz.
Crosshairs still in too ;)

If my brain would have been a computer it would have had a system overload when coming home from work and seeing this.

Oh cool, release. Wait, I need that 1.5 patch thingy, right? Not to mention Securom 8. How challenging. Time to get wasted on a few million users being totally annoyed searching for a workaround. I guess I'll get myself a monkey to jockey those discs. What Do you say now, EA?
::)
-
I think there are only 2 Normandy Maps whit SP.
Goodwood and Luttich. Well, the rest, Africa is whit SP.
I found a P51 in the Game Files, right in the Editor. Also i found a Me109 whit a 250kb, My Guess, Bomb.

YYYYYYYYYIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WWWWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have downloaded for 3 and a half hour now and theres still 1 hour left on the torrent. Well, i think the wait is worth it! Good Job Dev! ;)

the game is great, love it. Currently working, hoping to fix the memory.dll error i'm getting (possibly due to the 1.5 update)
cheers!
