Oh wow this is awesome! 8) Great update guys. Thanks a lot Ts4EVER & Shake for getting the behind the scenes look.

I love how you guys take the time to walk around the map, show us everything up close and demonstrate how things work. This is probably nothing 'new' for the people who check the forums every day but it will certainly help the casual FHer and I'm sure will be really exciting for the people who haven't seen this before. Not to mention the people who visit Shakes Channel and can see that FH is still updating :)

What I found most interesting tho was the historical background. :D Ts gave some nice info in there that I never knew about. The Russian POWs tidbit just gives the battle that extra immersion when I go play it. Too bad we don't have 'proper' Russian voices, would've been awesome to have those in there but it shows the devs are always looking for new interesting ways to immerse the player.

This update is so awesome in what it will do for this player base, thanks a lot Ts & Shake for taking the time to go over and explain everything for us. And then of course Schism & Beregil for the map and Kratzer for the Marders 8) 

EDIT: also, not sure who runs the moddb page and the Youtube channel but you should def update those with this. This is gonna get a lot of casual players re-interested again 8)

Map looking great, I hope we see some more videos for the Russian and Finnish maps too.

One question about the map though: can the anti-tank wall be destroyed by infantry explosives still? And will there be an objective mode?

This is awesome! I WANT TO HAVE YOUR BABIES!  ;D

A great thanks to Ts4EVER for taking the time to show us this, and sHaKeNbAkE for covering the whole story!

You guys are great, and I don't really think we need a "response" to Battlefield 4... The games are totally different (basically FH2 is a million times better :P).

Only 290mm spigot petard is powerfull enough (18kg of pure explosives vs 4kg of explosives in most powerfull handheld explosive in game). Gold Beach will be a push map, because allied objective during the D-Day was to secure the beaches and push inland ;)

Wow.  Nice update and I am so ready to play.  Can't even count the number of times I played the FH1 Gold beach map.  This one should be even better.

 Wow, very nice surprise.

 1st time I have ever heard Ts4EVER speak. He is funny & full of information.

 The map looks great & could be a top 10 favorite Fh2 MAP. Cant wait to play it.

Quick suggestion: Add Shake to the Forgotten Hope PR-team. It would be mutually beneficial: FH might get more players because his videos and he gets more viewers on his channel.
I'd rather play Kimble with my ass!
