lol as I read threw the new content the smile on my face just kept growing.

Yes. Yes. YES.

That's really all I can say for now - until I have you all in the sights of my long-awaited Carcano... or maybe I'll make it a SMLE. Muahaha!

Seriously - can't wait. Although I'll be on stage most of Friday 5th... methinks an all nighter is in order.

What I really want to know is how Killi Vanilli managed to make the reload animation for the Carcano rifle. Can we get a new FH2 weapon training video for the Italian weapons like the one before the first release? Okay that's stupid but hopefully the next update (tomorrow?) will show us some new videos or screens of the new weapons ingame.

Why do you think there is an update tomorrow? I expect one on Wednesday showing off some more stuff for 2.15 and then on Friday the new release.

A new weapons video would be nice, to show the deployable MGs, the Itie grenades, and other new features D: Deployable mortars will be the shiznit

[Flippy Warbear]

Yet another video is unlikely to happen, but we still have plenty of time to do them tho... You never know...

Nothing like deploying the Lafette in a trench or behind obstacles and having a long firing range for it. Then lowering the gun to behind cover when reloading, then rising it back up when enemies start rushing towards.

Or having a friend scout tell you when the tommies are close enough, then rise up from behind cover with the nastiest surprise ever... a lead shower!

Over on the EA UK forums, a DICE employee posted some details about the upcoming Battlefield 2 v1.5 patch. According to the post, a public beta is planned before Christmas. We also hear more information will be coming next week.
Yep there will be a public Beta before final so you can see what we have been working on. Some things you'll see/experience and other things you won't as its behind the scenes to secure Battlefield 2 accounts and playing experiences.

The beta would be for everyone that wants to install it, the more people that do the better feedback we get and we don't have an update 1.30 again. That update alone set us on the road of public beta to stop it from happening in another update. The plan is to get it out before Christmas yes

Will this have any effect on the release of 2.15?

[Meadow]

*gulp* I wondered that as well. Here's hoping it doesn't steal players - then again die-hard WWII fans (FH2's core audience really) won't be affected by it.
