Got this mod on D/L right now. I've been looking forward to this being released.

[CHARGER_76]

I played it today and enjoyed it. Lotsa good things going for it. Not a massive mod, 4 or 5 new maps, but a lot of new stuff and some good tweaks (recoil!!)Good effort by a small mod team.

[Justito]

I will get it this weekend.

[Garabaldi]

Fabulous work, guys.

The team is comprised of under 10 people IIRC (please corrent me if I'm wrong) so this is a great accomplishment :).

Keep up the great work.

[kysterama]

Great work guys! We know how hard it is to get an ambitious project out the door with such a small team so thanks for all the dedication. And thanks for the significant SP support as well. :)

[AJED (G.Drew)]

wow this looks pretty solid, nice work guys

[frontpage]

lets hope it will get played

one 300+ ping server with 5 plp on it :(

[Alm()nd J()y]

DL it from http://www.modent.org, faster DL :D.

[Eglaerinion]

Really liked the looks of Al Asad airfield, that is a top notch map. Sadly no decent server in Europe running it.

[masterllama]

nice mod but when I installed it it didn't give me an icon to start it how do i get it?

[BR-INDY]

great work guys....we desperately need some europe servers...i joined an australian one and got kicked for high ping s few seconds later...:-(

[D_FAST]

Very Cool indeed, to see guys still modding this title. It sure would be nice to see somebody releasing fixes for there title **Cough**Cough** Dice/EA. Its been over a yr now, and still no fix for the red tag bug??
How bout u give us modders the source so we can fix it for ya!! Its just plan redicolous that people still play this game (BF2), honestly!

Well said....i've been playing mods since the first one came out.....

and oh, congrats on being mod of the year 2006

I got aus forces yesterday , but there only being 3 aus servers i just played a local , nice models ( landrover is sweet) but the one thing that put me off a little was the lack of gameplay change. But other than that really nice release ;)

[ulm4lyf]

I like how it has wake island and jalalabad in singleplayer mode, I think it has all vanilla maps in 64 player selections...stupid internet keeps going out. I also like how you can adjust the amount of bots and the bots abilities.

[HimmelHund]

Great work! .. but after a short while the mod server will be empty again.. (like all other BF2 mods i host in the past..) People are to serious with the ranking **** :cry:

[BEEX]

thanx everyone,i hope you enjoyed the mod so far,we rushed the mod out the door cuz the team really needed a break before we broke..lol.
we have alot of bugs to fix,some of the bugs are bf2 engine related,so no fix for them,expect a patch very soon for the things we can fix.
.
and D_FAST..you are so right there mate...screw the source code,time to move to another engine...and congrats for poe2,mod of the year 2006.

[petemonster29]

absolutly some of the nicest work i've seen from the bf2 modding scene..........keep up the good work kids.

[Mekstizzle]

I've read that they're gonna include maps on Aussie soil soon enough. That'll be a refreshing change instead of the "good guys" always being in the ME/China/"Bad guys" countries attacking something even though they're supposed to be the good guys.

One question: You have austrailian voiceovers right? :D

"Bullfrog, that's an odd name...i'd have called 'em Chazwozzers"


Hopefully it's balanced. I'm not really into mods that focus on one side only...who's gonna play MEC?

[BEEX]

yup we will have aussie voice overs in the next version,well probly the patch after a hotfix.....its time for a break for a week or so..hehee
i did make some aussie voice overs but they lacked enthusiasm and expression,next time around they should be much better.
.
thanx for your support!

[BR-INDY]

what about server-files? am i just to blind to see em? we have a massive root server in germany...so for the majority here in Europe it would be a nice place to come to....anyway thanks for the hard work that went into the mod...

[BEEX]

theres server files coming soon,we had to test a few things first.

[lun4tic]

DL it from http://www.modent.org, faster DL :D.
faster download?? even filecloud is quicker than that one .. sorry to say ...

[Emrico1]

Great work on the mod... I only had a chance to play against a couple of bots but was really pleased and keen to play online. Love the new weapons, especially the medic rifle.
Change the american voices to Aussie and you have me hook line and sinker!

[hochpepa]

thanks!!! ive been waiting for a mod like his for ages...

ive always wanted there to be aus in bf2... and now there is!!!

[Hitmanhrt]

i downloaded it, but what the hell? theres no icon for it.
