The Voice of Reason

Hello and welcome back to another Forgotten Hope 2 update.

As most of you may be aware, news from FH2 has been a little thin on the ground in the last few months. Today, we'd like to explain why.

We have long been dissatisfied with the voiceovers that we've used. The original ones in version 2.0 were straight out of Battlefield 2, and too modern. The current ones from Battlefield 1942 suit the time period well enough, but are missing some important commands and can also be a bit hard to understand. Well, with some hard work and lucky connections over the last 6 months, we have finally managed to improve!

With the help of a talented voice artist (who would like to remain anonymous), we have completely remade every voice command. He has given us full sets for all current armies, armies in the future Eastern Front patches, and also a few more (just in case!).

But what good is writing about these new voices if you can't hear them? Although we cannot show you the actual commands yet (we are still adding the finishing touches to the new commrose that was required), our voice artist was kind enough to narrate our first 2.46 teaser video, made by the talented NTH.

Our winners for this week's screenshot competition is RAnDOOm. You can view the winning submission here.

We are still accepting entries for the week of March 31st. If you think you have the best FH2 screenshot, post them here.

That's all for this week, but be sure to come back next time for another update. Until then, feel free to visit our IRC channel, our public forums, and/or our Twitter and Facebook pages to discuss this update and other news.
