New HUGE BF1942 mod!
« on: June 23, 2003, 10:40:15 AM »
Achtung, achtung fellow BF players..

http://forgottenhope.bf1942files.com/main.html

This "new" BF42 is very close to release, I just wanted to inform you about it. Check out the vehicles and weapons section :eek: , like I said, its going to be a BIG mod!

Quote
Forgotten Hope is a mod for Battlefield 1942, based on historical realism. It will bring two new armies, the French And Italian Forces. Proper weapons for every army, and new vehicles as well. The mod was originally planned to be only 1940-1941, but due to popular demand, it has branced out to cover the whole war (1940-1945), we will most likely not due 1939, and the invasion of Poland.

It is aimed on adding more Realism to the game also. Tanks will have proper loadouts and armor values (ramming jeeps into them will not damage them like how it is now in BF1942). Bombs will do more damage. Grenades also agiasnt infantry, but not agaisnt tanks. There will be new maps, which will be based on historical battles in that time period. Dunkirk, Invasion of Crete, The Greek isles, North Africa, Belgium, France, Battle of Britian etc. Each Map will also have the correct vehicles for its era. So a map in 1944, will contain vehicles such as a Tiger, Panzer IV H etc, where as a 1940 map, would contain a Panzer 2 and Panzer 3.



As well, new Infantry classes will be included, Machinegunner will be added. Old classes will also be changed. A Rifle Grenade attachment to the Kar 98k is added, and will be for other nations. New clases such as Mortars, and Flamethrowers might also make their way in the mod.


Sounds nice no?
Check out some of these vehicles! DAMN! :D

V1 and V2 O_O I wonder if you are able to control them (not very realistic) or just select a target then fire away (pretty realistic for a V2)

Bismarck

Königstiger

Panther


Some weapons
MG34

PPsh 41 which sadly is not in the original BF42

So... you\'re saying I should get this game, eh?

I\'m so ignorant, I\'ve never seen or played BF 1942.  :(

I dont think Hood is in the MOD, but maybe they will include it later.

Im hoping for a big SEA battle map in this mod.
Bismarck VS the American ship in BF42 (not sure of the name) :D
