We do this because we want to have the PR core gameplay in a WWII setting. You can't find this anywhere else like lucky.boy very well stated.
It's strange how other modern warfare games don't itch you as much. Some people like WWII games, others don't. Leave it at that.

Why should we keep putting resources toward a WW2 mod that's just going to go to the same places we've already been and use the same assets? It's illogical, and I think more resources should be dedicated to the main mod and the Arma3 mod instead of making more factions or "fronts" and other **** for an absurdly overplayed genre.
Same could be said about PR:V then. The thing here is that we have the occasion of putting PR's awesome gameplay in a WW2 setting.

Yeah you don't have to play it if you don't want so be quiet. These people are seperate to the core PR:BF2/ARMA team, if they wanted to work on core bf2/arma III they would, but they don't.

That's a really interesting idea.

We thought about it and it's something that could be possible in the future.
Though, another scenario we're more interested in is Allies having to destroy Germans Flak cannons and other objectives/equipement.

I've always said that personally I would enjoy Forgotten Hope 2 more if it had PR gameplay. I'm looking forward to this.

I just can't wait for this.
The whole experience in PR:WW2 is something completely different and unique (just ironsights, the general feeling of playing a soldier in the WW2 era, the large scale assaults/defenses etc.) and with the new effects and sounds it will be just epic.
I hate to say that, but PR 1.0 without Normandy/WW2 is a bit incomplete. After playing a normal round of PR 1.0, i often feel the urge of playing WW2, but then realize it isn't there yet
It needs to come out naow

Yeah i agree, i need my fix of PR:N. I keep accidentally almost suggesting brecourt or overlord in map votes.

Yeah don't worry guys, several team members are busting *** to get this done.
Lucky is making models, going through other models making sure they are up to standard (quite a few are missing lods or have bad lods, so he has to redo them) touching up community models etc.
Arc is mapping, managing the team, constantly looking for content and new team members, bumping afk members, and making sure I work.
AD is doing his coding thing a a few things, team management plus a few other projects that will be shown off when the time is right.
The update wont be for awhile still, but when it comes, it will be a big overhaul, and well worth the patience.

Pr2 is a different team. There isn't many people working on prbf2 and pr2 at the same time. And normandy/prww2 is mostly made by community modders. Just like a Comfac really.

Depends when we release. Currently the ones pretty locked in are brecourt and road to saint lo, which will both be coming back. New levels are Carentan and Omaha Beach. We do hope to add a few more levels though.
