Greetings to the loyal fans of Battlefield 1918! We of the Battlefield 1918 Mod Development Team are well aware of the anticipation and the lengthy wait for 3.4. Today while the anticipation may still exist for those reading this latest news, it can safely be said that the wait itself is officially over as 3.4 is as of now Officially Released! It is of note that this release includes both the base Battlefield 1918 Mod as well as the Russian Civil War Expansion all in one download.

As one may notice there are plenty of new features to try out along with many changes to existing maps, weapons, ect. While we could end our news update here there is one additional feature that we must also announce as well. Many of our fans have long requested an official discord server for Battlefield 1918. In recognition of this demand we have decided to announce a partnership with the Forgotten Hope Secret Weapon Europe with their Discord Server also serving as the Official Battlefield 1918 Discord Server! It is hoped that this partnership will prevent any potential splits within the community while also encouraging those who may be curious to also have a look at Forgotten Hope Secret Weapon as well. With this in mind here is a permanent link to the server:
We hope this news is all to the delight of our fans and we of the Battlefield 1918 Mod Development Team thank you all again for your continued years of support and patience. We look forward to the day we will have more news to announce to you all and we hope you have a wonderful day. Thank you again.
LETS GOOOOO, I can finally die in peace now, Thank You guys for your hard work and dedication towards this this hidden gem, and im glad to hear that you now have your own discord server, I hope we can play a game later this night.
Finaly, new version!
Really amazing for your job.i am 1942 hobby modder around 5years.it is first time for me to witness such astonished mod.(ironsight and new animation)
i also interest for the animation.now i could edit the singleshot weapon bolt moving when fire.(like lugerP08 or Pendesen rifle).but for multishot weapon,i could not move the bolt.thus.we edit the baf file on the weapons.but it is not working.when i saw the lewis LMG and Madsen and i know your team have good idea to solve it.may i know how to move the reload when multishot weapon fire.
Thank you brothers. I just hope for the future. This one is one of the Mods what keep alive 2023 after. I just jope the people share this great mod and invite some people to play online. This Mod diserve it. I missed the old Website + Content from the Frontline18.de and inside1918.net. It makes me sad the content at all is lost! I love you for this work v3.4. Thank you BF1918 brothers.
a notice:
the Schneider-Danglis 75mm M1906-09 was a mountain cannon and not a field cannon
for historical accuracy the Erzatz Panzerwagen didn't seem to exist or with that name
also what version of the Fokker Eindecker? the E.I? the E.II? the E.III? the E.IV? the E.V?
the Schneider-Danglis 75mm M1906-09 was a famous French made and Greek (Ellinik) origin mountain cannon
Looks like the G88/05 rifle was added in this update too. Even though it is not mentioned in the changelog.
Perhaps during development some new things became old for us and slipped out of the changelog)
The amount of love, support, and innovation pushed by you guys is unbelievable. I was on the fence before, but this really sells that this is the highest quality and most complete mod for BF1942.
No stone left unturned, the bot support, coop additions, new content, cutting carryover maps(like Kursk), really cements this as an overhaul that goes above and beyond.
Thanks mate we appreciate it
how about making the kanonenwaggon with the MAVAG Typ AE panzerzug to move up and down the straight line railroad track of the villers bretonneux map, champagne map, saint Quentin canal map
A good idea, but I think it would be better to make each side their own version of an armored train
wasn't the Bergmann machinen pistole MP18-I better before rather than the one that is now?
Perhaps this is so, I can’t say for sure because I didn’t do anything about it
Hi, I just installed this mod, I'm new, is there no rifle sight in this version?
Hi,
In version 3.4, iron sights have been added to all weapons except the flamethrower. To install a new patch, you do not need the previous version, just transfer the folders from the downloaded archive to the mods folder and activate it through the menu in the game
Have the developers considered making bf1918 to bf2, like fh2, I think the updated game modes and mechanics will push the series to even greater heights of gameplay, such as the squad system and larger and more detailed maps and modes.
We won't do it, but we don't mind if someone implements it using bf1918 resources
Five minutes ago I played bf1 and told to playaz story about modification for battlefield 1942 about ww1. After game, I decided to check check Google to remember how modification called, and I found this page... You re still working with modification!!))) It's awesome) after such many years it's still live! You are very cool
