Hello and welcome back to another update of Forgotten Hope. Today we are announcing the release date for the highly anticipated 2.25 patch which will continue to build upon our initial Normandy
release. We also have three more Panzergrau re-skins and screenshots of the final map to be included in 2.25.
And now the announcement you've all been waiting for! After 5 months of development, we are proud to bring you the news that Forgotten Hope 2.25 will be released on Friday, January 8th, 2010 at 18:00 UTC. We will be releasing the torrent and server files on Wednesday, January 6th.
Today we have some screenshots of the map Anctoville which was created by Otolikos with the finishing touches done by Natty Wallo. It is on this map that players will be able to find our brand new rain effect as well, which was created by Benseras and tweaked by Remdul.
12th June 1944. British forces are advancing on Caen. In their path stands the seemingly harmless village of Anctoville. In the morning, as the rain pours down, they enter the village unaware of what awaits them. As they appear among the houses, the German defenders open fire. In the following fight the British forces must secure the village and outskirts to allow reinforcements to reach Caen. The Germans must hold this vital location to prevent the Allies' advance.
Finally, we have even more renders of the Panzergrau ('armor gray') paint scheme that we have been showing the past few weeks. This week we have the Panzer IIIJ Early, the SdKfz 251/1 Ausf. C 'Hanomag' halftrack, and the Granatwerfer 34 mortar. These re-skins were all done by Toddel.
That's all for this week, but be sure to come back next time for another update. Until then, feel free to visit our IRC channel and our public forums to discuss this update and other news.
Nice will download it for 100% great mod :D
2.2 is amazing. This will make it amazing-ier :D
Make sure you play it with the volume turned up - you wouldn't want to miss the new (and epic) sounds would ya?
I'm afraid my neighbours aren't that excited about the new sounds... xD
4 months of hard work ;)
how many people are still online and play this mod ????please answer,i ve played the mod last year but threre were only 2 servers online ,bythe way i live in germany.
Here you go- Game-monitor.com
Quite a lot I'd say ;)
2 full 64 player servers (hslan and the 79th) is the usual number at Euro peak hours. Sometimes it can increase to 3 full servers on good days. But honestly, 2 servers is more than enough.
After the release there will be more players than usual for a couple of weeks as allways.
I will be one of the new players ;)
Are there any problems regarding the Steam version of BF2 ? I had some troubles starting Project Reality in combination with Steam-Battlefield 2 so I wanted to make sure this one runs properly.
Looking forward to friday :)
Yes, there have been problems with the Steam version reported. I think some fixes were found, but you will have to check the steam and FH2 forums for them as I don't know them.
Superb models, textures and maps.
I am gonna so dl this !!!
Only few days left ;)
