They never said there would be such. Just 4 classes, each having 2 starter kits to choose from.

con- its almost impossible to take down a cobra with a mig, i mean sure you got the sa-7 but your dead before you get the second shot.
con- american AT class has a very powerful high rof mahine gun AND a rocket or grenade launcher. its a killing machine but its unfair for the other team.
con- most of the music sucks (in my opinion)
pro- getting in mig-21 and owning the newb in the chinook listening to "surfin bird"

You gotta be kidding. The music is probably the best part of the game..

Just for comparison sake, here's my vital system stats:

Athlon XP 2400 overclocked to 2.27 Ghz
768 MB DDR 2100
Radeon 9700 Pro 128MB

No framerate drops, no video chop, just crap netcode (again).
I think it's a coding issue. It's not a hardware issue.

Athalon XP3200+@400mhz FSB
1 gig pc2800 DDR ram
Radeon 9700 pro
SB Audigy Z2

My machine outclasses yours and It barely runs for me. I don't know the problem, and it's only been out for a day so no one else seems to know the "magic setting" to turn off to get it to run good.

Personally, I think that the while the jungle environments are good, the urban ones are excellent. Just a very "lived-in" environment. Right now in Bf1942/FH all the towns, even those that are supposed to be cities, feel small to me...but maybe that's right.

The biggest issue is that ATI/DICE didn't optimize anything for ATI cards. Which is exceedingly lame on both their parts. Over at Rage3d they insist there'll be a driver fix coming soon. It's playable on my 9700 pro, just not with AA.

And I was thinking about the music...we could have big band music for the allies...german marches...well, it'd have to be a mix because I have no clue if you can create music based on the side you were on, probably not.

Whoever said that you could convert helicopters into vehicles that tow, fantastic idea.

The weapon models in BFV are VERY nice IMO (little pieces swing when you move....very nice).

A Sherman tank can give you an... edge. - Oddball.

Has any of the FH team attempted a port yet? Its supposed to be a straight forward task. Of course i have no modding experience!

we anyways would do it without any conflicts - it's just fucking much work - the problem is that you would have to have BFV and BF to be able to play it

I only have a 2.0 Ghz Processor, 256 DDR Ram and a GeForce 4 MX 420 and my clan says the game should run fine on my system. The game only cost's 39.99 (Bout 25 american) in Canada so even if it sucks its not a big deal.
They say anyone should be able to run it if they can run Reg BF just turn the graphics settings down a bit! Im going to probably get more ram tomorro too that should hopefully fix some of the current FH/ DC lag too!
I will try running the game on 256DDR though and tell everyone what its like

Well not according to this thread:
http://www.gamingforums.com/showthread.php?t=114463

I wouldn't like it though if you guys moved to BF:v, cause then I'd have to buy that game
