The moment you've all been waiting for, FH2 is available for download right now (1.13 GB). It is an entire conversion of BF2 to a WWII mod, and it looks fucking amazing. Here are some videos on it, and the password for the file will be released friday. So basically you can download it now ahead of time so you don't get a download from a raped server, and play it on friday at 20:00 GMT.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5IsA7ELESF8For all the WWII + realism buffs out there, this is THE GAME to get, oh and of course it's free.
For me, what sets a professional mod apart from a crappy mod are the new effects added in, the skinning, and of course the weapon animations. All the animations are first rate, better than anything EA or Ubisoft could spit out. You won't be disappointed, and there's like 300 people seeding it right now, so your download should be fast as shit.
Some things the game has that are worth mentioning...
-one shot bolt action rifle kills
-weapon sway
-an ass ton of WWII weapons
-fuck worthy skins and vehicles
-badass fighter planes and medium bombers
-20mm nosegun vapor trails on the planes
-smoke with realistic physics(smoke swirls when a car drives through a smoke cloud)
-blood
-bayonets
-anti personnel mines
-mine detector
-sexy volkswagens
-DAK uniforms
-awesome voice-overs
-and there's a tool that will be released with the game that adds the lovely "buddy list" featured in BF42 (missing in BF2) so you can have that back. And they have incorporated Teamspeak and VOIP on their servers, depending on your preference
-shitty hit-boxes from BF2 are COMPLETELY fixed
-rifle grenades
-commander's cuppola view when in a tank
-realistic recoil/iron sights/weapon damage
-revolvers. Fuck yeah, they have revolvers!
