These are exciting times as we are happy to announce that we released our first internal build to our test team to begin “level design” testing on Saturday. Currently there are seven maps on the test server and as we continue our development process some more might be added for our fist release. The team has gone through our list of items to develop and have decided that it’s time for “content cutoff” and nothing else will be added to .1 except for the previously approved items. The graphics department is still working hard on providing additional weapons/vehicles for everyone’s enjoyment so stay tuned to our weekly updates to view more things that will be added. We still want our community members to post in the suggestion topic area on things that they want to see included and it will be reviewed for future POE:2 build releases. Don’t forget to keep your eye on our Interactive Development forum area as we are still posting our grey scale models that are being developed. Today Geledonutt posted his Pzh2000 German Mobile Artillery so go take a look!
So what is better than showing a main battle tank render? If you think like Hathcock it would be something that would destroy it! Today we would like to showcase the German "Panzerfaust 3" fully developed by "AgentX". We’ve seen reference material that had this weapon in both black and green colors and "AgentX" decided to go with the green to make it look better in-game.
The "Panzerfaust 3" round is for lightly armed vehicles and has a hollow charge, the "Panzerfaust 3-T" is for vehicles with reactive armor and it has a Dual Hollowcharge, the "Bunkerfaust" is for bunker & sand bag positions. The rest of the screenshots showcase the static’s developed by “Jilted”. He’s worked very hard to provide all of the static’s for the level designers. The screenshots provided below are representing the open fields that will provide great armored battlegrounds in our European theater.

The community of the week has been a large supporter of our mod for a very long time. They currently have one of the only active POE:1 servers still online which usually has 20 people playing at any given time. We want to Thank Mutiny Online Warfare for everything that they have done for us. From time to time they will host “POE:1” night and members are allowed to join their Teamspeak while they play on Mutiny’s server. For more information just click on their graphic to check out their website!
We are getting closer and closer to having something ready for the Battlefield gaming community so please continue to visit our website for our weekly updates.
