    I appreciate the hard work put in this mod and I really like all the historical and technical stuff they've put in. I have to admit for the low replay value compared to PR, which have a similar type of gameplay (which is even harder, due to many limitations and rules).

    But somehow, I past the majority of the times in FH2 looking at the minimap, fighting a little bit, failing to find some teamwork, watching arty and guns bugging. Maybe it's why my interest is going down for that mod after less than a week...
    maybe the maps are too big ? Anyway, I think they should've included at least one Berlin-type map, instead of all those endless desert land.

    Most mods put accent on realism, but the variety and intensity just go down.
    It's just a beginning, let's hope that FH2 will get closer to the BF42 type gameplay.
    So far, AIX is the most successful, bugless mod and I think I'll never uninstall it. But when I feel like having a serious game time, I start FH2 and hope not to get spawncamped a whole round by indestructible tanks. (didn't they have any rocket launcher during WWII? that would be great...)

        If you're worried about replay value, why not try out one of the Multimod Ranking System (MRS) servers running FH2? You'll get rank and awards! Woohoo!

          lol it's like "come in, we have candies!"

          it's not the candies that count, it's the taste
          it's not the awards that count, it's the fun. And so far, that last point phailed

          But I believe it will get better, especially if they win mod of the year

            Meh, the common BF2 player is a stat whore, so I am simply taking advantage of that.

                The vast majority of BF2 players are stat whores, so it really appeals to the masses :)

                but seriously, it doesn't change the game play and you get to enjoy a great mod while getting rank and awards.

                  Join a clan and go onto their passworded server in clan vs. clan matches. Or just go to any clan server, if they're playing they'll have decent teamwork.

                  The maps aren't too big, they're the right size now. Don't think of it as something bad; think of it as something that discourages Banzai charges in the deserts of Libya.

                  Battle of Sfakia is a fantastic urban map. If you don't think that...then you didn't really expect the right things.

                  Most mods put accent on realism, but the variety and intensity just go down.
                  It's just a beginning, let's hope that FH2 will get closer to the BF42 type gameplay.
                  There are quite a few things that were meant for FH2. Look at way past updates on their website. They have a lot of things that are just waiting to be ported, there's just no need for it when no maps can take it.

                  So far, AIX is the most successful, bugless mod and I think I'll never uninstall it. But when I feel like having a serious game time, I start FH2 and hope not to get spawncamped a whole round by indestructible tanks. (didn't they have any rocket launcher during WWII? that would be great...)
                  AIX is great and I'll admit is the closest competetor to FH2 (in my opinion).

                  Indestructable tanks? That's when you stop using the anti tank rifles. They barely hurt most tanks. Call in air support or distract the tank while a comrade sneaks onto it and throws sticky grenades. If tanks are indestructible it's because that particular piece of armor was in real life, to the weapons at the time.

                  The first recoiless rifles were the Panzerfaust and the M1 Bazooka. They both appeared after the theater FH2 focuses on for now.

                  Don't worry, devs will probably be moving forward into 1942-1943 era, and that's the Golden Age for the tankhunters...

                        I'd rather the statwhores stay AWAY from FH2.....

                          I really hope FH2 does no such thing and if anything keeps as far away from the BF42 type of gameplay. BF42 was fun no denying that, but FH2 was never meant to be a BF42 clone and never was advertised as such, if anthing it was meant to build on FH1 and incoporate and improve several features that couldn't be implemented due to the limitations of the BF42 engine (refractor 2?)

                          And if you're looking for "rocket launchers", you'll have to wait, those didn't exist until the later years of the war.

                            One of my biggest issues is the sound, it's horrible. Im running SB X-FI with 5.1 surround and some of the stuff im hearing is hundreds of meters away but sounds only 15 meters away.

                            I also found FH2 to be very unstable had a couple of CTD';s which I have no had with BF2 in over a year.

                            I give it 2 thumbs down
                            Every thought it might be your pc?

                            BTW awesome mod so far only played briefly but its been awesome... Need to have a go at flying too :-)

                              LOL
                              Only installing it because you hear the enemy approaching from far?
                              More usefull then a problem in my opinion.
                              And FH2 has the best animator around, man just look at those reloads, Killi Vanilli is the god of animations.
                              And weapons look perfect sounds are most of very good and all maps are like totally historical correct?
                              Perfect mod in my opinion. :yay:
