Be great if the BM Dev's updated the "latest new section" here on moddb to clear up the confusion and say they are still working on the mod and discussion has moved to their forums etc. No wonder passers by call it dead when the last update is from '09. I can wait for the mod :) hopefully its completed soon.

yeah they're staying with the '07 source engine 'til its done, if the team wants to port it to the newer source engine later im sure they will. Its gonna look great regardless, anyway half life was never really about the graphics it is/was about immersing the player in an environment so that they aren't playing as gordon freeman running around whacking anything that moves with a crowbar.... they ARE gordon freeman (eg. Can you talk to NPC's? No! so how can gordon? :P)

Basically the whole game has been redone since the "2009 release trailer" (according to the dev team) and most of the screenshots etc. are from around the same time so expect better quality and more detail, remember though they're still using the '07 source engine and pushing it far and beyond what HL2: Ep 2 looked like so like nubito said don't expect something over the top and demanding like Crysis

hmmm... fair enough, long *** statement withdrawn.

Why should the Dev's have to own up about missing the '09 deadline? It probably either wasn't finished yet or not finished to the standard they wanted to deliver. Since then basically everything in the mod, has been redone. The dev's are taking time out of their lives to create a mod for the public for everyone to enjoy and will get nothing out of it other than the satisfaction of the mod itself as well. What would be the point in teasing the community with more pointless images or a trailer and wasting time that could be used finishing the mod. Like they keep saying It'll be done when its done, if you have any questions or want to know something about the mod that isnt a stupid question like "Lol when is it coming out?" im sure Raminator and the team would be happy to answer it for you in the "Got a Question? - Enquiries about the mod" thread in the forums.
"Thank you and have a safe and productive day"

Not forever, Americans are replaced only while playing the mod - normal BF2 will still be on your computer with the US forces

shermans were crap as compared to the german tanks (tigers, panthers etc.) but the Japanese armour was definately the worst

Nathanius the v1.1 description says that this map pack is already included
