FH will probably be the last mod out of the main ones, anyways..
@Drayu, the Demo for Operation Peace Keepers is out! Has three maps and people do play it. Very similar to what POE will be.

After playing FH for the first time, I probably played less than 20 rounds of good old vanilla 1942. Waiting for patches was a bit maddening at times, but the content was amazing, skins, sounds, gameplay tweaks....awesome.
:icon_bow:
I'm sure FH2 will be just as impressive.

did not read it all, but didnt see a release date. fh tends to not even guess at a release time. they wait until you can smell it then give about a 2 week heads up.
apparently there is a podcast available here for those of you who could use it.

the military history part of me really appreciates the old themed stuff.
look how sweet they have modelled the boys anti tank rifle, comparing to the real deal i snapped last year, with a $6k price tag on it. they have done a great job and i think its going to be eye candy overload with new engine and new video cards.

the bases look way to small for such a huge map but all the weapons and such look nice
what they are showing are individual building renders.
there are whole cities of stalingrad, berlin, a million more i cant spell. everything you see are just new renders of individual buildings with stuff around it for presentation sake.
the first release is specifically centered in afrika, so there might not be as much urban combat, but subsequent patches will unfold the full fh2 library of WWII engagements all over the world. afrika, europe and the pacific.

This is a mod for BF2, it isn't out yet. They do have a release for BF1942 tho.
If I remember correctly, there were three different downloads for BF42, totaling about 2.5 Gig.
Two were for the mod itself, and one was just for the maps.

fh2 will be out when its out. no one gripes about bringing wine to its proper age. when it does come out, it will love you long time. so no worries.
last i looked, fh is the only bf42 mod still fielding 50 person servers ( i havent looked in over a month), but at that time, no more than 3 people playing any of the other mods.
it might be late (who knows it might not), but it will be worth it.

yeah when i said that i was thinking of the b17 and german heinkels. an experienced gunner can do a number on attacking fighters. tons of times i have either downed them or chased them off with steady stream from rear gun or top ball turret. even when gunners are worthless, is still a fun ride.

i helped hijack by asking the question, sorry. as a matter of fact im perpertrating a hijacking now by discussing hijacking and not fh2....
so, btw, band of brothers every night this week, 7 - 10 cst on history channel.....this will get you lubed up for fh2. i cant wait for my first garand clip ejection sound out of fh2. i guess the brits didnt use garands in the desert....oh well, they will come.
a note on these update pics-
i thought they were a bit grainy and figured that whatever compression has happenned didnt do them justice.
if you click on the pic to enlarge it. then put your cursor on the pic and then click on the enlarge box that pops up in the bottom right hand corner, that picture (which is bigger than my monitor) is the proper resolution and shows off the textures and models best. i just figured that out yesterday.
edit- an example is i enlarged the picture of the DAK soldier loadout with all of the individual items next to the guy. if you look at the shovel in this view, you can see the rust/wear on the metal. is pretty damn cool.

Yeah, but they better stop playing and release the mod! :yaya:
I was playing POE2 on the Carpathian Mtns map and couldn't help but wonder what it would be like to play FH in that environment. Dunno the name of the POE2 snowy map with the island flag, but that would be a hoot on FH2 as well. The POE2 environs are so big and detailed, I think it bodes well for what we can expect in FH2. Trouble is, first FH release is desert maps and it might be many months before ETO maps are released...:wallbash:

Nice updates yea that’s good to see them playing each others mods. When I was on a mod team with former members of FH with friendships with current FH developers last time I checked they really didn’t have a clue when it would come out. For sure it will be a few more months. Hopefully by Christmas but maybe not even by then. Unless they were holding out on us then.

yeah that is a long time. if i recall, fh released late but roughly the same time as other mods. not quite as long relative to the other mods. its been a year and i still dont see eod, pirates and the others.
but, i will wait knowing that after poe2 is dead, pirates2 is dead, eod2 is dead, fh2 will still have full servers like fh still does today. so the wait may be a bit long, but the product will have longevity that none of the otherones will.
i dont wish to wait that long to play it, but it will be great when it is available and it will be supported by the devs and community for far longer than the other mods. (if history is a guide)

an observation
when i got on last weekend there were 5 large servers that were half full or more and another half dozen with up to 10 people in them, for fh. that is more than for most mods out now. i was shocked. i am thinking that since there is a dedicated group still playing fh .7, they can take their sweet time with the release.
at any rate, i wish they would do something. i want some wwii action.

the relationship between long time of release and how good the mod will be is interesting. this will be the best mod for bf2 when released but is the most frustrating in the meantime.
i will continue to wait. again, the '42 version is still kicking ass and is awesome. on any given day, there are at least 3-5 servers over half full and on weekends there are about 5-6 totally full servers with another 15 partially full. that is more action than most of the current bf2 mods. bf'42 is a 5 year old game now. i play fh as much as all the current mods. let me know if any of guys want to kill sometime.

Pretty good sounds too - even in that crappy youtube vid. You can hear the bullets clinking as they come off the clip on the reload. There didn't seem to be any crosshairs, was FH42 that way? Been so long since I played it I can't remember.
Yeeowza! That Spit is looking beautiful! Can't wait to hear that merlin pop as it starts up. my precious... heh heh
Pretty big city in the vid, lots of bldgs and stuff. I think the FH team is really gonna blow us away. Release is taking forever, but as I go back and look at all the fine work from their updates, I really think it will be worth it.
papasan9
04-13-2007, 07:18 PM
yeah i saw the no crosshairs. my guess is there wont be any. i think all of the realism mods for '42 included crosshairs while the new realism mod standard for bf2 is not to have crosshairs. just my guess.

The link goes to a history lesson complete with computer generated pictures. That's about what I consider FH2 is right now. It's just a history lesson for now.

What gets me is the utter indignation of FH2 dev's or fanboys when anyone on a forum inquires about a release date. But oh well, I'll play it once it's released. I'm sure retirement homes will have sweet fiber optic connections by then. I just hope I can play it on my holo-screen with scents-o-vapor...
Battle Group frontlines is looking pretty good too...

While the WWII era FPS is often maligned, its my absolute favorite. I'm a fan and student of the history. Years ago I ventured online for the first time to play MOH. I was getting killed by a luger wielding, trench coat wearing Nazi bunny hopping all over. Needless to say, I was not a fan.
This dude that sat in the cube across from me at work pointed me to '42. I resisted his pestering for a couple weeks and gritted it out on MOH. Finally bought 42 and was hooked. How could it get any better? I wondered...
WAP! FH42 smacked me accross the face and said "Like THIS muthaf$#@". Or should I say, "like ZIS!".
BF2 comes along, looks great on my freshly built rig - I get sucked into the stats and left FH and all its glory in the dust. Played some great mods for BF2, no slaps, just pokes. Har Har :hehehe:.
I'm just waitin.... I'll wager FH2 will rock. Though I've never played the frontlines mod, I've no reason to beleive that it won't be good if not better than FH. They're both 'looking' pretty darn sharp.
In the meantime, I'll give the latest PR a whirl. I'll drive an Abrams, or fly an F-16, trudge thru the forest decked out in my ghillie suit.
But what I'll really be thinking about is firing up a Corsair on the deck of a carrier near Iwo, off to strafe some ground targets or scrap with a Zero, if they even DARE to takeoff... Maybe duke it out with the Japanese naval forces around Midway. Go toe-to-toe with the germans in the snow covered Ardennes, on a push map no less?!
(psssst, Pacific and European theaters my be waaaay off in the horizion, if ever... Just look when this thread was started - 5/7/06! and that was to 'catch up'!... Oh, right right right. Dont want to get my hopes up...)
Instead, I guess defending a desert outpost from the onslaught of British forces with my panzerfaust and trusty K98, while my teammates wait for the 109 to spawn isnt such a bad way to spend a couple hours.
So, yeah, I'll wait - but I'm not gonna like it!

thanks for posting heat, am looking forward to watching the vids when get home.
btw, fh2 is starting beta testing. they have tapped on tactical gamer to help provide testers. there is a thread at tacticalgamer.com to sign up in.
when i got to their site, i just searched forgotten hope and it is one of the top search results.
anyway, i am not holding my breath for a response since i only have one post on their forums, i doubt i will be taken seriously. if any of you are interested you can post there. they are supposed to email individuals that are chosen.
in any case, beta testing...so maybe we will see a release before the apocolypse :)

Im really looking forward to this mod. Never played vanilla BF1942 after FH was released. I played some BFG recently, it was OK - a little rough. But it was nice to visit the WWII era again. I just hope FH2 releases other theaters soon. Desert is fun, but their ETO and PTO maps were better imho. Flying the Corsair around Iwo was a hoot! That thing sounded mean! I hope they have some Naval battles in future releases - a glaring ommission in VBF2 imho. The FH Battle of Britian map was superb!

12-11-2007, 12:21 PM
yeah, when I think FH2, I think naval and air battles as the best. I did like Supercharge though!

how can you not use torrent!!! you will get such a DL from it, it is insane! I am guessing anywhere from 1mb-2mb/sec.......but I will let you know for sure when I get home :D

What's a good torrent to use?
Drayu
12-12-2007, 09:22 AM
I use uTorrent ( http://www.utorrent.com/ ). DL it, install it. It should work fine without you have to set up anything, unless you want to. Once installed:
1. click the torrent link for FH2
2. a pop up DL box should come up (at least in Fx), choose to open with uTorrent
3. uTorrent will open, save file and let DL
4. When done, right click the torrent in uTorrent and choose "open folder containing"
5. you can unzip it there or drag it to your desktop and leave it there so you know where it is.
ENJOY! Let us know how it goes!

You are getting it from 16 people, and distributing what you have DL'ed thus far to 70 people. Right click the torrent, choose advanced, and look for upload and download speed. set the upload to around 30k, and the download to unlimited.
Screen shot is down by hitting print screen. Then bring up MS Paint and hit ctrl+v (paste). Save as jpg, and then post :)

Drayu

looks good, probably getting a slow DL b/c not many people have the files you need. Or maybe you need to open ports, but you DHT says green, so PNP may have worked.

12-12-2007, 10:19 AM
Yeah I figures its slow because its not out there a lot yet, but I will let people get as much as they can.

yeah, that is the only problem with getting the torrent so early. I am sure if you stop it and pick it back up later you will do much better for speed.
@crotch, I always appreciate WiH hosting files, but I don't get "good" speed from WiH :( That is why I always go torrent. BUT, if you are DL'ing it now, I won't bother uploading it when I get home as I was going to do!
