The video is great.
Being a veteran of BF1942 and the mods for it along with Point of Existence for BFV this is great news.
No more stats no more ranks just win and have fun
Its going to be a busy week with 1.4 coming out,2142 Beta and then PoE 2.
Hopefully soon Desert Conflict and Forgotten Hope will be released...
Great days are ahead of us for the Battlefield 2 community

Very cool trailer, I liked the theme, music and the POE animated logo (I bet not enough people appreciate that). It's a shame BF2 doesn't have better support for destructable environments because the barn exploding after being hit with an RPG at the beginning of the trailer would've looked awesome. Can't wait till this is released, I think once word gets out about this it should take the steam out of BF2142.
P.S. I hope the machine guns in this game are a lot more accurate than the garbage in BF2; the spread with BF2 guns is ridiculous.

may i ask what happens if BF2 v1.4 patch is released after u release POE and the new BF2 patch brakes POE?
will you release a patch for it? or do you happen to know that either BF2 v1.4 will be released before or not brake it?
im just wondering :p
EDIT: also love the movie and that old music that u had in POE1 brings back so many good memories :)

PoE has set a date and are sticking to that date. If BF2 1.4 patch breaks it,im sure we'll have a hotfix out withen 24 to 48 hrs!

Oi, i wanna see it on youtube. :(

Anyway, what if 1.4 changes everything? It should be coming out on tuesday (the patch) and it might change all the PoE stuff (becuase i'm guessing it was built for 1.3) so they might have to tweak some stuff to make it 1.4 freindly. That's just me guessing, and saying so don't be so fixated on that release date...
Edit: Guess someone just said the exact same thing i said, oh well. :yay:

Yes.
Our builds have been tested vs the beta versions of 1.4 without any issues. We have to assume its going to be the same for the actual release of 1.4. If not, we will just release a hotpatch afterwords.

The music is from the orignal PoE1 for bfv and was composed by "Shableep" who is no longer with the team
The sounds were all from PoE2 or BF2, I had to add some sounds in post production due to audio issues while recording the footage itself, but the majority of the sound is from the actual shots we rendered.

Mostly correct, but server files wont be locked. We want server ops to have a couple days to get thier stuff setup and see if there are any issues with all of the different systems out there.
Need to have plenty of servers for people to play on when the mod releases :)

This is just a bandwagon topic buddy. Most of the people complaining have no idea what they are talking about anyways, lol.
You are correct, the hardest work was done for us by EA\DICE. We are just tweaking and putting makeup on the pig.
And it would be a helluva lot easier if EA/DICE made the engine mod friendly.
More support might have helped, but we have been given all the tools that DICE used to make the game, so MOD friendly doesnt even make any sense.

what's idotic is calling bug filled game as "one helluva game". perhaps you should see bf1942 and DC, 5+years and still going strong, quality games NEVER DIE. you're lucky if bf2 will last 3 (though i'm hoping the mods will). i think you have your helmet a little too tight around your skull, lossen it up and open your eyes. it doesnt take a brain surgeon to figure it out.

Topper']the POE dev team have done a great job by making a mod that will keep people interested in Bf2 and not go flying off to quake wars.
Yes, it seems they have made a great MOD. Most of us have not played it for even one round yet, so most of us saying how great a job they have done have no idea what we are talking baout ATM, lol.
Big hand clap to all the MOD teams. There are some great ones done and being updated, and some great ones on the horizon. POE seems like it will be as good as any of the others I have been watching.
Quake Wars, 2142, etc are for a different bread than hardcaroe FPS Modern Combat games. Frontlines War will most likely do far more damage to this franchise than any of those will. Man will that game kick ***, POE should do the smart thing and move to that game and the UR3 engine when its time. I am sure most of the DEV teams are already thinking about it.

Well, there is some blood line connections between DICE\BF2 and the KAOS teams if you think abou it. What I think, is that Frontlines will be the new standard game to be playing, and get back into competing in ladders.
I hope POE and several MOD teams head in that direction when the time comes. RIght now it is BF2, and soon we get POE2 for free. Its not a perfect world, but I think we are lucky to say the least. :cool:

Yeah I can't wait to see how Frontlines: Fuel of War turns out. Since some of the desert combat team (including frank himself) are involved I'm quite optimistic (as long as they don't dumb it down too much because of the 360/PS3) about it although it's not getting very much media attention.

Yeah I can't wait to see how Frontlines: Fuel of War turns out. Since some of the desert combat team (including frank himself) are involved I'm quite optimistic (as long as they don't dumb it down too much because of the 360/PS3) about it although it's not getting very much media attention.
I hope it doesnt get that much press TBH. The real FPS players will amke there way to it, and we might avoid the onslaught of Noobs that BF2 has brought out of the woodwork.
Seriously, the calibur of players in BF2 is a joke. I want the KAOS team to make money of course, but I hope its a more "Exclusive" crowd over there when its done. SNobby rant done, go back to telling POE there the best.
I just watched the Video again. TBH, the music in it was terrible, and the mixing was pretty bad. I hope you guys have some good original music for the game. So far, the audio in general for the mods has been pretty bad. Great looking other than that though.

all the music in our game is orginal... it was all made by one of team members.... we are also known to have some incrediable in-game sounds, and let me ask u this, did u ever play PoE for BFV? if u havnt, then u dont know what PoE2 will offer, so keep your unwanted flaming to your self till you play the mod, im 100% sure it will change ur mind! Unless of course your one of the people who likes to whore the APC in BF2 and HAS to HAVE the highest rank.... if thats so, then well u should get the point... Also you say the audio is pretty bad, do you have any experience with modding or messing with audio for games? im pretty sure you dont, so please again, keep your comments to your self, it makes u look like an idiot

Frontlines will get exposure because of the PS3/360 crowd so it will definitely not be some exclusive FPS. Like I said, what worries me is that they may cater more to the console crowd to make more money and we'll end up with a disappointing dumbed down game.
As for the music used in the POE teaser, I liked it so it just goes to show everyone has different tastes. If they had stuck some headbanger music in there then I'd have vomited. The only suggestion I have for future trailers is to show more infantry combat and highlight the abilities of the weapons some more so those of us watching can get a better idea of what the gameplay will be like. Having a dramatic trailer with a bunch of APCs looks nice and all but it does lack substance.

Haha, dont vomit. I agree, everyone likes something different, and you cant please em all. I just want something with a new direction. The String cinematic thing is so old and tired. Hard Rock, Techno, ambient, whatever.
I just want to hear something new, I will get it, but whos gonna give it to me. That sounds dirty, lol. Still great work guys, but you wlready knew that.

Well orchestral music isnt really that big of a part of the actual game. Just loading etc. If you want crazier stuff, play Sandbox or Sir. mod.
The ingame sounds, according to HKSniper, are amazing.

Its hard to tell from a video , because of the intense compression on the file. THe new gun sounds were great from what I could tell, and thats what I mainly pay attention to.
