Re: Fh 0.62?
 
explanation:

new player joins the FH community. He already got 0.6 and 0.61.
What will he look for next? Right.. Next version number. Which is 0.62
Now imagine he will only find a 0.65.
He will go "wtf? where is 0.62 everybody talked about? where can i get the missing files? do I have to download 0.62 63 64 and 65? Is there a 62 or did they rename 0.62 to 0.65?"

and know where he will go to get all these questions answered?
Riiiight
He will come in here.
maybe hundreds will come in here.

So lets just call this 0.62 right? And stick to this system at least for all 0.6x versions.

If we get the feeling that it would be better to call it 0.7 (suggesting thats its a new big big downloads with lots of new features maps and vehicles) we will let you know. But actually 0.7 will introduce the French and the early war to FH.

But yes, good logic, hadn't thought of it that way.

Natural-Selection best HL mod ever

3:30 AM just finished testing BG1942 game is nothing compared to FH. FH is the best BF1942 ever XD

I was also waiting for a YEAR for NS. At least they got on the ball with the patches after that. I haven't played in a while though. The whole system was pissing me off. Aliens were always losing because of JETPACKS and TELEPORTERS, two movement-enhancing upgrades that the Humans got, while movement was clearly supposed to be an alien advantage.

I did that with several HL mods. DoD, NS & HI. HI was the longest wait. Had to wait something like 3 years. And yea....NS is kickass. STEAM fuxored my HL & I can no longer play any HL game. I miss NS. =(

I'm not gonna argue with a developer, obviously :bows:, but I imagine questions regarding the absence of .62-.64 could be answered by simply stating on main page that they never never existed and the newest version # was introduced for a reason.

I used to follow the HL mod Day of Defeat ever since 1.2b, and when the developers introduced beta 2.0 after 1.3b, no one asked where 1.4-1.9b were. It was understood some big-time changes/addition were made to the mod, and that was that. And I'll bet the higher v. number attracted more in the gaming community than if for some reason the devs decided upon an unconventional numbering system.
