View Full Version : Forgotten Hope 0.6 coming in 3 days...
Forgotten Hope is a Battlefield 1942 MOD, the first 0.5 version was released about 5-6 months ago. And now the 0.6 version looks extremely promising, especially the two new tanks that they made, the King Tiger (a.k.a. Königstiger/Tiger II) and the Iosef Stalin 2 heavy tank.
They have some of the most best looking skins I have ever seen in Battlefield 1942, you can really see that the FH team surely loves to work on this MOD.
Anyway, check out the two new tanks. Best looking skin and tank... EVER!

Have a look at it when it’s released, although I heard that it will be around 1 gigabyte. :(

Haven't played FH in a while, but I remember it was damn good, really brought some realism to BF1942.
The rifles needed some work, but the general idea was good.
It releases this saturday btw.

Also, there is a new video up on www.fhmod.com
They show many new things that will be included in the new version, check it out!
Personally I just love that sound in the BAR that the Americans have in Forgotten Hope, you almost get goose pimples and you don’t want to stop shooting. :D
I think the sound is from Saving Private Ryan, but I’m not sure though.
EDIT: Lol, you got me, Mr. Redundant. ;)

yeah it would be nice if they ported it to BF:V... but just cause BF:V is coming out doesnt mean Im gonna stop playing BF1942 and it's mods (just offers a different experience)
forgotten hope looks great, I cant wait for the new sounds... (sounds are pretty weak in BF1942 :/)
@ Loke: I hope the new texture packs look that Crisp ingame.

I think they do really, but the screenshots they released during this week looks a little Photoshopped IMO. But we will have to wait and see when 0.6 is released.

well, actually this release is the "uncensored" version of the release, so if you want to grab that early this is your chance.... the version being released tomorrow is the censored version (nazi stuff etc removed).
but they will be releasing a patch to convert the censored version into the uncensored version later.

I have no idea yet, you need a password to install Forgotten Hope 0.7. It will be released at the same time as the official release I think. :(
Pauly
06-03-2004, 05:30 PM

Pauly

umm....isnt it officially released?? beacuse they no longer have just bittorrent links...they have real ddownload links
No, pre-release still.
Farrowlesparrow: They have censored out the Nazi Swastika and some historical textures in the Censored Version, but you will be able to download the uncensored patch later, it will be around 20-30 MB.
Pauly
06-03-2004, 06:45 PM

GAH! when I said I had the pre-release, I was wrong... I saved it to my C: drive Partition this morning (5bg) by accident, see I downloaded Firefox (mozilla) since I was using firebird before, and It has this new Download manager (pretty cool) but I assumed it was saving to my D:\ Partition (75GB) and I ran outta space on C:\... at 99.8%.
just my luck :)
ah well.
Pauly
06-03-2004, 07:39 PM
im all done..just waiting for password
Pauly
06-03-2004, 07:48 PM

The FH site is so slow everyone is pressing refreash. Everyone is waiting for the password.
The password seems to be:

Goddamn...King Tiger is something else. Put about seven sherman rounds into him and he just kept comin. Doesn't help when a panzer can kill you in one shot.

F*ck, all downloadservers are fully loaded..
Anyone here got a nice server that hasn't been found by many people?
Pauly
06-03-2004, 11:10 PM
heh..i downloaded before password was released...does that mean i have censored version?? i want no censors
PvtRyan

No. The pre-download is the uncensored version IIRC. The official download is censored and the uncensored fix will be released within a few days.
I don't understand why it has to be censored, it's a realistic represententation of reality isn't it? It's not like war documentaries have censored swastika's.
Must have something to do with german law.
Pauly
06-03-2004, 11:56 PM
Its illegal in germany to have the swatzika on your property or something like that
Pauly
07-03-2004, 04:34 AM
ok....they already have a patch out...mayb thats why some server will crash my game....V.6-V.61 heh
So, what's your opinion of this version guys?
I think it was pretty good, but I get very low FPS at certain maps. I don't even have the game at maximum details, and still low frame rate. :flame:
But all the maps don't have low frame rate like the new Omaha Beach 1944, real great map IMO. The MG42's are very dangerous now, and you can't run on the beach like a fool and take 26 rounds in your body before you die.
Gold Beach 1944 looks pretty good too, although I haven't played it online yet (just offline to test it out). Very nice with those balloons (I don't know what they are named in English) in the sky, dead cows lie on the field also. ;(
The King Tiger is a monster on wheels, although I haven't seen it engage the IS-2 yet, but the Sherman’s don't stand a chance against it. :D
