Well, the map Iwo Jima looks cool enough, but there are many bugs.

- Allied tanks stuck in mud

- No allied pickup kits (they apparently use jap kits)

- VOIP is turned off.

You must register with waw & join their TS server.


Ridiculous, but i love the effort to TRY to put this together.

I think I figured out your player name.

We had a bit of a hiccup today.  It was not on the intended server, thus no VOIP.

The pickup kits switch between Axis and Allies like many stock maps. You have to pickup the Axis kit, put it down and the Allied will appear in its place, standard BF2 to you new guys.

The mud fix didn't make the deadline but will for the scrim.  Pubbies taking part in the campaign don't have to join TS though it will be repeatedly encouraged.  You will be able to use teamchat, squadchat, and VOIP.  Allchat will result in kicks and general ranting will get one banned.  Other than that it will be simple.

Had some good fun, but the Japs got their asses handed over three times in a row so they mass disconnected oin Guadal, resulting in 9 Allied players and 2 Japs. Sad to see it end like that  :(

Cool.

 My main argument was VOIP really. The 1st map looked really good with the dark brooding ambiance.

Perhaps  the communication information needs should be in the original advertised post next go around. Typing is redundant,cumbersome & will get your squad  killed.

 Connecting/Registering with WAW TS without knowledge of IPs,where to go ect is confusing/time consuming for new players & annoying for others.

I am just trying to help as i understand this was a test.

When you are ready, ill try again......

Seriously dude, we just didn't have the maps loaded onto 762 server at that time.  a few hours later(after everyone left) it got done.

It is now on 762 #3 PMC Campaign Test  VOIP all you like.

Please end VOIP rant.

As for the Public Campaign, we only ask that you join a squad and cooperate.  It's not pratical to lead a squad and not be in TS as VOIP unlike Mumble does not allow squads to coordinate. 

BTW, you don't need to register to go on WaW TS3, its: ts.bfewaw.com 
Forgotten Honor is:  ts1.forgottenhonor.com 

Hopefully we will have a better event Sunday.
We appreciate everyone's help.  However, we are not morons and observations of the obvious are not necessary.  We know that there is still a lot to be done.

On Battle Island the trees have bad lods: the tree trunks are invisible from a distrance, making looking at the forest a surreal experience.

Will it be more events?

The Allied hidroplane:when you press Shift and free view,and when you look behind as many as you can,you can see that back side of plane is missing and you see sea(altough when you are looking plane on F10 you see it completly),so bug?

Are these planes taken from BF1942?If they are,as ships,it is almost nothing new of velichles.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think there are no new vehicles and static models at all, they are all imported from bf1942 / FH1. Dunno about soldier models, but AFAIK japanese weapons are also donated by one of FH2 devs.

EDIT:
oh wait, some japanese tanks weren't imported from FH1, somebody else donated them?

AFAIK most of the new models were bought from some modelling website.

I suppose it will depend on what side you will want to play - WaW - allies, FHT - Japs ;) The same goes with registering to the campaign.

Sign ups are delayed a day.  But everyone can still play on the server 762 #3 and fill out the pubby form if you want.
