The mod you are trying to view has ceased development and consequently been archived.

General

The Forgotten War, the Far Cry modification, is a teamwork-based, real time strategy first person shooter modification based on the Korean War. The mod will have a unique game play, based upon a commander commanding a group of soldiers and building buildings, vehicles, tanks, aircraft and artillery. A unique supply system will keep you in its grasp as you face the enemy, side to side with your brothers in arms.

Realism

The Forgotten War strives to make realism as closely accurate to real life as possible, while steel keeping game play fun and enjoying. The general for each team will be able to assign ten (10) squads, which have sub-commanders that each have a unique set of commands and voice commands allowing the possibilities to be just as realistic as real life. A unique physics model allows the destruction of bridges, guard towers, roadblocks and buildings.

Squad

As mentioned above, every squad will have a sub-commander (sergeant) who will issue real-time commands such as ‘follow me’, ‘covering fire’ etc. The squad will also show up on your map so that you're not separated from them (of course you have to be within a considerable amount of distance from them). A good sergeant will move his squad in cover and command the squad in combat as a group.

Teamwork

As in all wars, teamwork is the key to victory in The Forgotten War. The commander can not see the battlefield like the usual RTS view, instead, when he enters his bunker/helicopter he must actually either physically transport him self to the area he wishes to place buildings, drop supplies, or use his platoons to help with the construction (request a drop, etc).

Vehicles

TFW will include a large amount of fully operable vehicles, from scout cars and halftracks to T-34s and MiG-15s. These vehicles will act as heavy support for infantry and are literally the gods of battle. The commander will build them in his base, and they are dependable on supplies.

Dear Far Cry Fans,

I’ve been away for a good while because I had no idea what to do, how to do it, when to do it.

I’ve done a lot of thinking these past weeks in search of an answer…why can’t I stick to one thing? I thought, then thought some more, and then it finally dawned on me when I got my new computer.

It’s my fault that I chose to listen to everyone else’s opinion and try to satisfy everyone at one time.

Now, many of you know I had a side project, High Octane that I ran for a little bit, but that’s gone now as I want to lead TFW and finish what I started and what I want, not what everyone else wants.

I’m truly sorry about the whole ‘stealing work’ idea that was spread about me when in fact that wasn’t even close to being true. There was a mis-labeled render that had Psy|’s name on it instead of Jak_Carver’s name and he thought that I was trying to pass it off as our own.

NO, I would never steal work and I hate people who steal models and what not. Now, I’m actually going to ask that the Far Cry community accept me and TFW back and let us finish what we started and let the community enjoy it as well.

If any of the old team is interested, please contact me at Pelezo@theforgottenwar.com.

Thank you very much for taking the time to read this and I hope you understand!

Thanks,
Eric M. Pelezo

Hey,

Well at this time we are still looking for team members, but basically the US weapons are done, psy has been doing them non-stop and we are currently working on re-rendering everything in a good scene.

Thanks,
