IDF: FFI Update 30.11.07

30 11 2007

Welcome mod fans and readers to another new IDF:FFI update,

At the beginning of this update we want to announce that one of our most important members, SPYKER, was drafted into the army earlier this month. We wish him luck, a steady hand and a good eye when shooting.

Back to the Battlefield stuff, we got another render for you.
THe FN MAG is a general purpose machine gun which was first introduced in the late 50’s, and is still in use in many of its variants as a hand held machine gun, a coaxial machine gun and mounted on many vehicles.

But we got more!
In the last update you have seen the AK-47 and AKMS renders, now we show you some ingames.

Last but not least we show you another toy for the egyptians. It’s the T55 tank, which was developed from the US-Intervention team and improved by SPYKER.


Thats it for today, stay tuned for our next update,
Have a great week.
IDF : FFI Team.


OPK #28 Curtain fire

29 11 2007

After 0.21 many questions where coming up how we will continue the kit system in upcoming releases. There is one clear answer for the MG-Class: The MG4 does in fact appear in OPK.

 

 

As the lighter one of the two MGs it will be part of the basic equipment in OPK. It will be a valuable support weapon with very unique qualities for the KFOR troops. The heavier MG3 makes its appearance in the upgrade class.

In OPK we will have two versions available, which will contain the Reflex Sight. Which will be the standard sight on the MG. The upgraded version of the MG will have a zoom scope which will replace the reflex sight.

As Nightmare did with all the other weapons he will adjust the MG4 to BF2 ratios.

But now some pictures for you:

Starforce and Nightmare are working franticly working to put the weapons in game. A special thanks goes out to Zefan from Battlefield: Korea who made the wonderful texture.

For the mappers among you we have some OPK-light map samples ready to download.

With this we say goodbye and are looking forward to see you on the OPK-Gameservers.

BGF Release: BATTLEGROUP BLITZKRIEG!!

28 11 2007

It is with great pleasure that the Battlegroup-Frontlines team can confirm that we are releasing this week, and announce that the release will take place at 2000GMT (H-Hour) on Friday. At that time the various hosting and mirror sites will open up links for you to download the full install of BGF V1.0. In advance of that, by Thursday we will make available a server build so that server admins can get their servers up and running in time for the release.

We have also prepared a passwort-protected BitTorrent source so that you can get the release through peer-to-peer FROM NOW ON. We will release the BitTorrent password on our site at H-Hour. You will only need to unpack it then and install the mod to quickly join the server.

The link for the client-file is:

We are pleased to say we have had many contacts from server owners who wish to run BGF on its release. Where the server owners also give us the IP, name and location of the server we will use this information to compile a list of servers which will be running on release and the details will be included in the release news.

The Panzers are rolling - and they`ll be here soon!
