Hmmm...I wonder if we'll see 0.7 this or next week. Ah well, time will tell.

Master-t! They said every theater is fair game right? Yes, so if you can finish up your Hungarian Hope minimod and then directly get working on Hungarian Hope 2 (or implement Hungary into FH2) I believe that we will definetely see Hungary in FH2. So what do think?

Some can better than others. Nowhere in that interview is it stated whether or not the artillery piece is manned the traditional way nor is it explained how the actual spotting takes place. Since there is a lack of information, I ask. Do you see the correlation?

My point is not whether you hit it or not, my point is it being unmanned. My question is not regarding BF2, it is regarding FH2. As far as I know FH2 is not out yet. And you are absolutely right, I haven't played BF2 all that much, that's why I ask. Do you see the correlation?

Gosh all that bitching about possible feature for a mod that is not even out yet. Have some faith ladies that the Devs put the right features into the right maps.

I knew it wasn't Lobo giving that Interview because the spanish macho curse words were missing :P

Props to you HydraSlav for educating the uneducated. I think you are the only person on the board with enough patience to do it, thank you.

The first part "Artillery batteries allow the commander to order artillery barrages or smoke screens to a target area." It doesn't mention how the "ordering" takes place. After what 13th raptor said:

I asked to get this clarified. hydraslav, since you seem to have no wish to clarify it, I suggest you stop quoting the interview over and over. You might think it is helpful, but it is not. An explanation of how the commander spotting system in BF2 works would be tons more helpful.

Yes in the second part it says artillery pieces can be manned as in BF1942, then there is mention of a "new innovative spotting system." So parts will be as in 1942, I take it.

I have BF2, I just don't like it. The only reason I got it was for FH2. Since I dont play it was hoping for an explanation here. I still haven't gotten an answer to my questions, but I am tired of your snotty attitude. So you win.

And deathBob, I suspect you are the forum troll, since you contribute nothing but sarcasm. So feel crawl back under the rock you came from.

Sigh.... why on Earth do you think the World revolves around you, Mr I-so-important?

As clearly evident from my first posts, i was answering a question by <StG>Nighthawk when i referenced the interview.

As far as you go, i simply said that you are not playing the game the rest of us are playing, cause just 1 round as commander in BF2/BF2Demo can show you this "point-n-click surgical artillery" cannot even kill a tank it was dropped on, which makes your concerns absolutely irrelevant

But since you continue to miss the point after so many posts, and still think you are the center of the Universe... i like to just re-iterate:

Some people here really, really need to learn to read :lol:

If I do not take everything deathly serious, so be it. I simply commend Hydraslav for doing something I do not have the patience to do.
By question you mean this:

I have no clue how Mcgibs system will operate. The current BF2 system has no gunner. My guess is that Mcgibs system does not have a gunner.

The commander orders artillery strikes by bring up the commander screen, clicking the artillery button, and left clicking on a point he wants hit. The arty then fires for several seconds. Then it has a recharge period in which it cannot be fired.

It is literally point and click, no different from a commander orderign artillery on a particular map coordinate. For the sake of gameplay all the little middle men have been removed.

Well the commander still has artillery at his disposal but I doubt he can still use it so easily and independently as in BF2. Most likely he will need a scout or squadleader to spot targets and request an artillery barrage or something like that. At least I hope it won't be possible for the commander to just click a space on the map and drop artillery there without having to count on any of his teammates.
