Did anyone notice those buildings behind that Brümmbär? Looks like a monastry or a large factory. Are those new buildings?

O man, o man...;-)

Shaders are improved a lot, to my opinion. No more glittering.

PLEASE delete this thread...;-D

I agree. It really should.

And another one, concentrating on the 12th SS.

That would be great, benpark. Thank you.

Well, to compensate for my first, rather impulsive post. I also don't need to see human torches or hear terrible screaming. There are other games around for that and they are not to my taste. But I do want to see flamethrowers and the cruel reality of war, because no matter what we tell ourselves, for most of us this is not a game, this is history.

Is there a possibility to only get helmets with foliage?

I want flame throwers AND human torches. I'm also not keen on this kind of morality. It is a game. Nothing more, nothing less. And getting shrapnel into your face or a bullet in your stomach is as horrible as burning alive. Well, more or less, what I'm trying to say is stop thinking and kill them all.

I've installed them and taken a look at them, Umlaut. It really is a big improvement. Trenches and foxholes now blend in more and it looks so much more realistic than the old ones. A must have mod.

Great contribution to the game, Umlaut. Thank you!

Impressive map, silverstars. Great job.

First of all it would take us to the realms of fantasy and need a lot of rational and thorough research. But the Germans were experimenting with a whole new series of tanks and assault guns, mainly known as the E-series. What I do NOT want is tanks of 1000 tons, SF science and that sort of nonsense. But a whole new series of improved Hetzers, Jagdpanzer, Panthers etc, with night vision and improved guns. German infantry with new AT weapons like the Rottkäpchen-guided missilesystem and their platoons mainly equipped with Sturmgewehre and MG 42s (how about that for firepower), better Flakpanzer etc. etc. Same for Western Allies and Russians. All this must have a more or less 'acceptable' background, so a good story is a must. Personally I like the books of Peter Tsouras on fictional (what if) historical events. A lot will depend on a good story to make it believable. In one of his books he desribes a failed invasion in the West, after which the whole remaining force of the German armed forces are moved to Eastern Germany and Poland to stop the Red army. Whether that would have been possible is irrelevant, it just gives a great atmosphere. As far as the availability of German infantry is concerned, I don't think it was the lack of men that made the Germans lose the war, more the way they used them, scattering them all over the place. But it sure would be interesting to have elite veteran units and well equipped green Volksturm or even partisans. BF has showed us it can make even 'unlikely' scenarios acceptable (Syria for example) and I'm sure they would be able to make a great game, without turning it into a cheap fantasy. Not to everybody's taste, but I would like to see something along these lines. And like you said, it would open the way for West vs East fighting as well. Even a combination of the two would be possible.

Not just Arabs. Happens in Afghanistan too. A lot. All warlords have their own little boys.

300 other games! 300 other games! I want a time table!

Perhaps you could download a virus to get the same effect...;-D

As interesting as a confrontation between the Western Allies and the USSR in 1945-1946 may be to most of us, I still prefer a mod in which the war against Germany is dragging on into 1946, with a whole new series of vehicles and infantry weapons turning up on both sides, like the German E-series, Panther II etc. I recall someone (representing BF) mentioning the possibility for such a mod.

Benpark, will all British helmets have foliage? I think the ones without foliage makes the Tommies look like 1940 or 1942.

Very good of you, benpark. Thank you.

Superb map!

Since baron has got himself banned for a while it would be nice if someone else could step in and adjust this helmet mod for 2.0. What I very much would like to have is foliage camo on ALL British helmets.

I should be more specific. I would like all of my men in a platoon to have helmet nr. 3. Is that possible?

Thank you, baron, much appreciated. There seems to be a problem however, only one soldier in each British platoon is wearing the helmet with foliage. The others are wearing the same old, ugly helmet as before.

Baron, Richard isn't responding. I'm not sure what to do. Would he mind baron to adjust his (Richards) helmet mod for 2.0? Anyone?
