I'm really impressed by the quality of the new models and map scenery. Everything that I've seen looks as professional as we could hope for. I just hope they top it off with some great map designs that play well.

Aye, and release it within the next few months!

Well, the PoE team has locked the content for the v0.1 release, and they're now doing internal testing on levels. It looks like they're getting somewhat close to the first release of PoE2!

01/12/2006 PoE Update

This will rekindle my interest in the game.

I imagine the US and Russia will use updated objects already created for PoE1. On the PoE forums you can actually see renders and other associated information for each of the items listed above.

I can't imagine any artillary, mobile or otherwise, would really be able to be brought to bear on at ranges within the size of a BF2 map. I thought that'd be more mortar close in arty support's job. I guess it's nothing new considering the BF2 howitzers but they always seemed silly to me as well I suppose. ANy of you military buffs know definitively?

**Strag** · 01-20-2006, 10:51 AM

Yeah, I'd say arty is actually more suited to a game like OFP, with its huge map sizes. But, I'll never forget my first game of BF2 when the arty came screaming down from the sky for the first time and blew my guy 50 feet in the air. It may not be very realistic/practical, but it IS fun.

**Mayfield** · 01-20-2006, 11:58 AM

Back in December they said they were ~30% done and that it would probably be another 6 months. I would give this one some time people.

**Strag** · 01-20-2006, 12:59 PM

Where did they say this?

**VegaBond** · 01-20-2006, 01:06 PM

POE1 weapons with more polys for BF2

**Strag** · 01-27-2006, 12:25 AM

Wow. For this week's update, the PoE team have posted in-game screenshots from their playtesting. Head over to their website to see them. Here is one to whet your appetite:

**DrunkenSoul** · 01-27-2006, 10:35 AM

from thier website:

interesting...have it play like an actually war, it first starts on rural maps, and later 'as the war continues' release urban maps

**TychoCelchuuu** · 01-27-2006, 12:23 PM

Looking exceedingly good, if I do say so myself. Those new vehicle shots on the front page look just as good as BF2's regular vehicles.

**Riki_Rude_BTYC** · 01-28-2006, 06:31 PM

uhg hurry up POE, once POE came out for BFV it was the ONLY thing I played, if TG has a POE server, ill be in heaven!!!

POE2 is looking amazing.

**Strag** · 02-03-2006, 04:46 PM

More goodies from the PoE team are up this week for the 02/02/2006 PoE Update, including a movie clip showing the T-84 tank in action. Of note, the T-84 can currently fire multiple types of ammo from its main gun, and there is a handy ZOOM feature for the main turret sight. Lots of other new info, as well. Dig it.
