There already are American bulge airborne models, on Bastogne for instance. And about not knowing that face: You disgust me ;)

I wonder what maps we can see these soldiers in :)

FOY!!!!!

I say that because does anyone else see a resemblance to dick winters from BoB on the captains face? ;D
(Zero care to comment?)

Awsome update and well done on the player models, professional work as always

Will the M4A3 replace ALL the M4A1's on the map? like did you change the M4A1 (76)W to an M4A3 (76)W too?

Animations look great! :) it's getting harder and harder to wait for this next patch

I don't wanna take anything away from what you're doing because the animations are awesome, but I have one question:

You're logically working on animating the new guns (Russian/ new Thompson etc...) but you also seem to be REdoing animations for a lot of existing guns as well. Ik these are all WIP and I don't wanna jump to anything but is that something you're doing on your own? Or did the devs feel as if Killi's old animations needed to be redone? Just seems a little redundant seeing as I thought the old animations were great too, but that's why I'm asking.

That being said keep 'em comin'! ;D animations are a HUGE part of the immersion aspect of this mod, which imo is its most important quality. Ik it's alota work but maybe eventually the 3rd person animations can all get sorted out too. afaik when someone pulls out a k98 they still "deploy" the non-existent bi-pod in 3rd person (could be wrong tho)

Siege of Giarabub, Fall of Tobruk and Mersa Matruh are also supposedly accurate to what they used to look like.  But I don't expect you feel like a trip to Libya and Egypt at the moment.

Also, I think Bardia and El Al have reasonably accurate terrain features.

Bardia really? that map always seemed very vanilla to me (plays very well) maybe because of the abundance of those BF2 bunkers... cool to know its semi-accurate

So if you guys can start to give strong arguments, instead of things you read from officials or moderators, that were really strong arguments (again: "stubborn", "useless", "false bling bling"), I maybe could follow you. But atm I don't have a clue, why their server and ranking system is better or worse, than the official one/servers that support official ranking. To say, that it is the way as it is, isn't an argument, it is thesis, that have to be well documented with pros and cons and not only with "this is shit and this is shit" nor by insulting other peoples hard work nor by empty suspicions. Do you see a 762 guy insulting the work of the Devs in this forum? The answer is no. So now start to think a littlebit, but please not too much, it might could hurt. ;D

Holy crap I got stupider reading that...

Now you seem like a very close minded guy, so I'm in no position to expand your mind, and to be honest I don't have the time or energy to hold your hand and step by step show you where you're going wrong in understanding other peoples' arguments. (it seems near impossible after 14 or so pages of pretty clear and sensible posts that you don't seem to comprehend what people are saying).

But I will say that you should probably take a step back, re-read this thread, and realize that there is more than one person arguing against you... and they're all saying pretty much the same thing... So what's the likelihood that the multiple people making the same basic argument are all wrong, and you're right? (and ik you're not so good with comprehension so I'll let you know that yes... this is a rhetorical question)

Also... sarcasm is not your strong suit, and it's even more painful to read when the grammar is butchered

@the topic: I'd have to agree with the majority of you in saying that the pros of 762 joining the official ranking system outweigh the cons. I wish there was a way to make it happen but 'c'est la vie,' I can only hope that their decision doesn't ruin this great mod's player base.

I've read through most of this thread and gotten a very good jist of what's going on... I gotta agree with pretty much everyone except the 762 guys here. It's bad for FH2 to be having a rift like this... the only thing we're hurting here is the player base, and that's what FH2 needs the most. :(

Back to topic, it is hard to convince a 762 fanboy to abandon their ranking because they have such an awesome stat on it already, and in a democratic, capitalist society you just cannot expect a certain group of people to give up their things for a greater good of the community.

But, uniformity and consistency is important for the mod - some new players jump into 762 just not able to find their ranking on the official ranking system. We FH2 die-hards know that these are TWO systems but it'd be quite confusing at first for a new player (eventually they'll learn, but some might be frustrated and leave the mod, losing one potential player)

The whole ranking system is not only to allow FH2 players to "compete" with each other, to self-assess their own performance, it most important helps to increase our player-base which is desperately needed.

The dark side is that the current 762 players lose all their medals and kills, but the bright side is that the 762 server would be more popular among a certain group of people who prefer the official ranking (like people who have lower ping to 762 and higher ping to HSLAN, such as me myself). And the long-term bright side is that finally 762 got a ranking system that is official, and in my opinion, using the more polished ranking system, would serve players better. (so earning maybe the Crete Armband is really an achievement!) The 762 staffs could also retire from the busy work of updating the ranking system which should be some tedious work.

However, it is still your own choice whether you want to look at the bright side or the dark side. We cannot force anything upon you guys. But be reminded, the later you adopt the official ranking, the more your official stats will be lagging behind (and more chance players would rage-quit FH2 losing all their stats)  :-\ An early switch is always a better switch.


You are not "surrendering" to our pressure by making a change - you just are doing the right thing for your precious players. A server who cares for their players is always a good server.

Sensible Post makes sense...

And so if you can't see all of the good reasons put forth in this thread then I guess there's just no helping it sadly.

Would most likely be the best option to deny server files from 762 then.

sadly ^this wouldn't be a bad idea as a last resort i think...
hope it doesn't come to that tho. i hope the 762 admins come to their senses and hop on the FH2 awards train. we need more players and more servers to support them

It wasn't a bad article, and imo he mainly said only good things about FH2, that should help bring more players to the mod... the only bad things he said seemed to have been directed at engine limitations (jumping over waist high statics, BF2 vehicle physics, etc...)

I laughed pretty hard when he kept describing the maps as "huge" and "bigger than some African nations" tho (I wonder how he described PR)

All in all I think its good for the mod... People who saw this article def won't read it and think 'man this mod sounds like crap'

he said full force, try to comprehend.

it doesn't negate the fact that his post implied an uneducated generalization of Americans... try to get the point

To make myself a little clearer. It is just that all i seem to read by non euro's here is that the police is authority and should demand it from every pleb.

If all you seem to read is from a few of the members on this forum, then direct your comment at them. Don't generalize a nation by the one in three-hundred millionth fraction of people that you've encountered on the internet. Just as I don't generalize every person in ?Belgium? because I think Stefan's a child. ;D

Because going against them with full force right away isn't good. But i think many americans won't understand that.

I know right?!... I mean we haven't even tried asking them politely to stop, or maybe writing an angry letter, signing a petition, making frowney faces at them or telling them that we're very disappointed in the way that they're acting...

Using more advanced non lethal methods of small force to neutralize a harmful, destructive group of chaotic rioters would just be ridiculous... we might as well be cavemen ::)

(ignorant and needless America bashing will be retorted against with sarcasm)

I spent many hours playing on WOLF yesterday, and my stats haven't been updated either (and, like you, I received a couple of awards). Apparently WOLF is not yet perfectly working with the awards system. Hopefully we can find out why.

And, just to avoid any confusion, non-Americans, wanna-be-Americans, and hyphen-Americans  are also welcome at WOLF  ;D

Ahh ok... sounds good then hopefully you guys can get this working in the near future... I wanna enjoy the fun of ranking up while laying on my favorite american server :)

probably a good thing it didnt record any of my stats yet anyway... i think i never had a K/D ration over 1 because i was too busy admiring the new scenery lol
