   This was one of Gunnies many many BF2 babies.  Glad to see it get the PR treatment.  I hope this gives a great mod some new life.  Back when I lost my internet for about six months it was not BF2 or FH2 that we played over lan but EOD.  Great freaking mod!  Glad to see that it might get the real play it deserves.

I love EOD like as if it were my own child, it inspired me to get into vietnam in the first place :-o

I just hope that it isn't turned into super slow like PR though :/

A semi realistic Vietnam will be loved by everyone.

A Realistic vietnam as PR will not..

Great potential is givin to the PR developer team. I hope they put it well to good use, and good luck  :)

To me, this opens a chance to actually like PR. Its current form is almost as exciting as counting all the pebbles at the beach, so hopefully this far more interesting concept (which I thought was an april fools joke at first) will give me a reason to play it.

The best thing about this is that EOD2 will be back to life, active again, my  most favourite mod ever not dead yet.  :)

At first I thought it was a very cruel April Fools joke, a revived EOD2 with continued development but when they announced it's real I was really happy.

I knew everyone would whine like babies about PR taking it, but whatever I thought the pace of PR was pretty good after .9. In a Vietnam setting, firefights should be even more intense with ambushes and such.

This.

Actually, I'm quite expectant about this, because I have a soft spot for Vietnam War. (Like many more who spent their childhood in the 1980's, all those Vietnam movies and TV series must have done the trick.) For old times' sake, I hope that at least one map will have "Reflections" by The Supremes (aka the title music for China Beach) as the loading music 8)

Here's to hoping that they keep it mostly "asymmetric" instead of making all battles "conventional" engagements between "more-heavily-equipped-than-they-could-even-imagine" NVA and US, as in BFV Vanilla ::)

Is EOD still alive? Wow. It was one of my favorite mods I played after BF'42 came out but after FH1 and BF:V and then even more FH1 I totally lost sight of that one. I will download it again.

Anyone got mod-tips by the way? I'm looking to get a little more out of my BF2 copy and maybe there are a couple of interesting mods out there, for if the FH servers are full. ;)
I'm not too fond of modern-day shooters although I enjoyed the vanilla BF2 a lot. Vietnam, Korea, more WWII? The Great War perhaps?


Oh. and does anyone know what happened to my other favorite BF'42 mod from around that time: the Star Wars mod? I can't remember the name. It was before SW: Battlefronts took over everything multiplay and Star Wars. I don't think they got any more done than the one Hoth map, but maybe someone knows any details. Come to think of it, a realistic FH-like Star Wars mod would be kinda awesome. :)


Thanks

FH2 is the game, DarklyDreamingDexter is the name.

I go off-topic just to spill the beans but lets not go off too much.

Galactic Conquest was the mod and it got up to 0.5 version, spanning roughly 5 releases in total. There were many maps aside Hoth (which in the end finally received working AT-AT's) such as ISD Judicator (a map taking place inside a star destroyer), Death Star I trench run objective map, Tatooine, Dantooine with tank battles, Mon Calamari water planet and some space maps in which you could fly huge ships and battle it out between the fleets.

Nowadays some of the old Galactic Conquest devs work with First Strike (Star Wars mod) on BF2142.

As long as it doesn't turn into a new PR, i'm happy. Something between PR and FH2, in terms or realism and gameplay.

Thanks Flippy. Galactic Conquest was the name indeed. I will seek out that First Strike mod. And, in keeping it ontopic, EOD2 too of course.  ;)
FH2 is the game, DarklyDreamingDexter is the name.
