Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

[Spawndemon]

There is a new update posted today over at the Forgotten Hope 2 mod website. They are back as always with some new impressive media. Here's what they had to say:

The first item for this week's news is the freshly completed Vickers Mark VIB, which was modeled and skinned by Montoya. This vehicle has been completely rebuilt and reskinned for FH2, and preserves Montoya's tradition of making strangely beautiful models of very ugly tanks.

The second item for today is a wind-driven water pumping station modeled and skinned by ctz. Stations like these, found moving precious water resources in the arid North African landscape, also make a great platform for snipers and artillery spotters.

The last of today's goodies are the first ingame screens of FH2's M4A1 Sherman. When the first Sherman's arrived in Egypt in 1942, they provided badly need 75 mm punch in a more flexible package than the clumsier Grants. Kudos are deserved by Omni for modeling and skinning this beast and to ctz for bringing it ingame.

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

this isnt even near good..... ITS GODLIKE!!! AAAAWWWW MAN!!!!

this mod looks sooooooooooo perfect!

yeah doing a mod takes a looooooooong time specially with a game engine like bf2 that requires extra eye candy, but i guss it would have been better if EA had released the editor when the game came out :/

i believe the mod teams are doing the best they can, and u can see that by the media

release the mods when u want we will be here waiting.

ROCK ON!:rock:

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

The custom Buildings look great. I like knowing there is a lot of work int hat area and that when I do get to play it i'll know everything is new. Lovely.

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

Why its taking so long is that the Mod teams are getting very little EA support, and the editor is very complex. Just not as simple as BF42 was....

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

Little EA support is not the reason it takes so long. Modelling skinning and coding takes a lot of time, EA cannot help with that.

We can't lay it all off on them.

Looks great. As long as you release before 2142, which I'm sure you will, I think the fanbase will still be here. Of course it's anyones guess whether 2142 will take players away from '2', I'm just speculating.

I'd play FH2 over 2142 any day of the week.

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

Who wants dibs on FH being released before Battlefield 2142?

Re: Forgotten Hope 2 Mod Update

It all looks great.
In the meantime everyone can play FH for BF42 before the battle begins on Battlefield 2.
