The Forgotten Hope 2 mod team is back today with a new forum post about the progress of their mod. Here's what they had to say:
Glad to have this all cleared up. To learn more about the FH2 mod be sure to visit here.
I'm afraid that this thread is not as much an update with news in it, but rather an update about the news. I'm sure you have all noticed that our news updates have gone from being weekly, to coming once every two weeks, to once every month. Now, this is due to a lot of factors, but one thing that certainly has something to do with it is the type of replies that our updates have generated in the past few months. Especially the last news update received almost exclusively comments regarding the lack of release date and the (apparent?) imminent end of the world. So, we have, as a team, decided to stop our official news updates until we have completed our first release and are able to give you all a solid and definite release date.
Now, before you all start panicing, I'd like to mention 2 thing. The first being that our first release is getting close. We've stopped adding new vehicles and weapons and are now fully focusing on finishing what's not yet done. The main thing that's left to be done is a small amount of maps. These maps are 95% done and it would be a shame not to include them in the first release. We have yet to start beta testing these maps however and that will take some time. I'm pretty confident that we are not able to realize a release in October, but everything should be done in November. The second thing I wanted to mention is that we don't think it's fair to keep you in the dark completely about our progress on FH2, so we'll be posting some 'goodies' every now and then in the forum to keep you updated. Think along the lines of screenshots from beta testing, or some statistics from FH2. We'll try to keep these as periodically as possible.
And the first of these screenshots we'd like to show you are right here. I'd like to mention, before you comment, that I took these screenshots in an older build and also that I have a pretty low-end computer, so I couldn't have anti-aliasing running. I think though, that they turned our pretty nice. We tried to shoot a small trailer for our 'Siege of Tobruk' map (by Lobo), but that didn't really work out. I did run the battle recorder, so I was able to take these screenshots later.
