BF40K News 05/08/08



Weapons (7 Imperial Guard & 1 Tau) identified from left to right (click links to see larger images)
  1. Power Sword
    • This weapon is only available to the Commander, Hardened vets and Kasrkin Squad Leaders.
  2. Autogun
  3. Grenade Launcher
  4. Meltagun
  5. Autocannon
  6. Heavy Bolter
  7. Lascannon
  8. Repair Tool

It was Battlefield 40K's four year anniversery in July, however we have been working on the bf2 edition since it was released. Its been a long hard road getting this far.

Most of us have full time jobs and other activities that take up our time and don't have much time to work on the mod, so we get done what we can.

Its been a while since our last update, just to fill you in on whats been going on.

We are coming very close to having all the infantry character models, equipment and weapons done for first release.

The mod is still lacking a few sound effects here and there, and we have quite a few animations and special effects to make.

Our mod team does not have a character modeller and we are unable to create unique looking commanders, custom squad leader models for each class for both races and the XV25 Stealth class for Tau.

Currently we are having to take a shortcut on the Squad Leader Models by giving them different shoulderpad textures to mark them out. or removing their helmets.

Right now we are trying to iron out all the bugs in only the infantry, their weapons and the game maps to prepare the mod for an infantry only release in November.

There will be around 6 classes per side. (Depending on if anyone helps us get the XV25 Stealth done).

We have dropped the vehicle crewman class for now from both teams.

Anyway until the next update.

It's a bummer that you have to leave so much out for the release, but oh well...

Happy to see that a release date is mentioned within this year at least !

Happy Anniversery Battlefield 40,000

Well it's nice to see more of the game being done and for the infantry only mod is it for BF2 or 2142? I really wish to help you guys out but I don't have the tools to make anything, and I don't really feel like buying a program that cost about 300$ (I think).

I don't care how much is left out of a November release, you guys have done a fantastic and thorough job with everything!

You all deserve medals in my opinion.

Excellent work guys. This is definantly one of the best mods for any game. The level of detail within the mod, and the community it has gathered are both awesome. Keep up the good work guys!

Yay!

Like most people have said, there are a lot of us that wish we could help out, but do not have the resources to do so. I hope that things will work out and that the release will still be a great success. Happy Anniversary!

Death to the Greater Good!
