Forgotten Hope 2 is a World War II modification for Battlefield 2â„¢ and is based
on the original Forgotten Hope, a modification for Battlefield 1942â„¢, one of the
most popular multiplayer games ever. Battlefield 1942â„¢ featured land, sea and
air combat in a way never before seen. It was the goal of the development team
to maximize the game experience by adding both a realistic and enjoyable
gameplay to FH and the same goes for FH2 in the future.

With over 250 new pieces of authentic equipment, with tanks such as the mighty
Russian IS-2 heavy tank and the diminutive Japanese Ha-Go light tank, aircraft
from the rugged American P47 Thunderbolt to the antiquated British Fairey
Swordfish biplane, warships such as the British Ark Royal aircraft carrier and
the German Battleship Tirpitz and weapons including the powerful German
Panzerfausts and the fearsome Russian PPSh-41 submachine gun, Forgotten Hope has
a wider scope than any other Second World War First Person Shooter, ever.

But the war is far from over. With the release of Electronic Artsâ„¢ Battlefield
2â„¢, the development potential has increased a lot. An all-new game engine and
physics system brings the battlefield to life like never before. The new
material penetration feature measures weapons’ ability to fire through barriers
based on their composition and players will need to know the difference between
concealment and cover in order to survive. Immense, richly detailed,
destructible environments, from city streets to remote forests, brought to you
with brilliant graphics are more features of Battlefield 2â„¢, to name a few. And
we are going to bring all this to the Second World War.

Winston Churchill once said "It is a mistake to look too far ahead. Only one
link in the chain of destiny can be handled at a time." But we do look far
ahead. The end of our road has not changed - only the stops along the way. At
the beginning, Forgotten Hope 2 will concentrate on the North African theater
and the struggle between the British Field Marshal Bernard Law Montgomery and
the German Generalfeldmarschall Erwin Rommel.

You will be given the chance to take part in maybe the most important campaign
of World War II. Fight on the side of the British forces to give the already
forgotten hope back to your countrymen after the mortifying defeat at Dunkirk
and the never ending German air raids. Or join the German Army in their drive to
gain control over the Suez Canal and steal the last chance of the Allies to win
the war and disrupt any strategic plans for building up bases to launch attacks
on the "soft underbelly of Europe".

Whatever the side you choose you will have an almost endless armory at your
disposal. Your weaponry will reach from knives to heavy machine guns to
anti-tank rifles, your equipment will contain everything from the first aid kit
to magnetic hollow charges, your motor pool will offer any type of vehicle
whether you want to drive scout cars, tanks or self propelled artillery. Your
airfields will give you the chance to pilot bombers and fighters and your
dockyards will provide your naval fleet with an armada beginning with submarines
and ending with an aircraft carrier.

Fight on ancient battlegrounds like El Alamein or Tobruk. Forgotten Hope 2 will
also offer different gamemodes for different situations - in addition to the
standard Head-on and Assault maps Battlefieldâ„¢ is famous for, you will also need
to destroy or defend strategic resources and equipment in Objective-mode play.

"The battle which is about to begin will be one of the most important battles
in history. It will be the turning point of the war." But it will only be the
end of the beginning for Forgotten Hope 2 - we will be expanding the mod to all
of the theatres its prequel currently occupies, and more.

So whether you like house to house fighting in Stalingrad, tank battles in the
Tunisian desert or dogfights in skies over southern England – Forgotten Hope 2
will have something for you.
