Playing With Smoke and Fire - A Forgotten Hope 2 Update

I thought I saw Faustpatrone ingame already?

It has actually been in the game files for a while now I think, but you might also be thinking of the Panzerfaust 30 that was added with 2.2.

Faustpatrone was used at least on one of the custom maps - Etna line for sure!

Yeah, but I'm not sure was is really codded correctly, or did it use panzerfaust 30 settings

omg omg omg the fauspatrone I was dreaming about it.
THANK YOUUUUUUUU TO Knoffhoff and Toddell !

But will the faustpatrone appear on the eastern front only ?

[TASSER]

Does the RPG-43 have the streamer in-game? Seems like it would be pretty tough to do, not sure if you guys worked some magic though

Also, was it common for smoke grenade's to be designed to float? Seems pretty damn smart.

The faustpatrone was more common then you think, as it was cheaper and simpler to manufacture then the Panzerfaust. Also it was alot lighter,  3.1 KG vs 5.2 KG

what will be the in game difference between these besides the name and model?

[Kasztelan]

Maybe there will be two Faustpatrones in kit?

Not much of a difference, mostly historical accuracy, but smaller warhead = smaller penetration (capable of destroying most if not all soviet tanks at the time, anyway), it's just a panzerfausts' older brother. Still it gonna be superior to any other handheld AT weapon on the Eastern Front, what makes it a valuable weapon to use or capture on the battlefield.

ok, thanks for the info

Actually it should be rather useless against T-34's or do very little damage as the odd shape of the warhead would make it often ricochet on a sloped armor.
