General News: Forums update & new website soon!

[Instinct]

As you may noticed we went over the Forums in the last few days.

That happened because the launch of our new website and community portal is very close and will be hopefully done at the beginning or end of next week.

A few things may confuse you, for example why the News forums of Faces of War are now in the top hierarchie, that is because we will have only one News forum for all news we post, the website will syncronise the forums and newssystem we have.

Faces of War = Outfront 2?
Yes actually it is, it was the working title of Faces of War and now is the working title for the sequel of Faces of War, if the name will remain, we don't know yet. It may change during the time, but still better than just calling it the "sequel"

Why Outfront 2 not Outfront?
Actually Soldiers: Heroes of World War 2 is Outfront, it was the working title of the game, so it's logical to call the sequel of it Outfront 2.


In addition, the forums will be integrated to the website and you maybe won't arrive it through your bookmarked link in your favorites, for the case it should not work, simply type in:
http://www.digitalmindsoft.eu
you will find the forums in the community section.


Well that's it for the moment, I'll keep you updated!

Can I ask why a new website? Is it too laggy?

[Instinct]

As said, that will selfexplain as soon as you see it.

[Slapping Penguin]

Can someone explain to me?

Is their an addon pack or a sequel coming out!?

It looks nicer with the new labels on the game designated forums . I still don't get the need for a name change for FoW though, especially after all this time has gone by since its release .

I think the name change will help - FoW's reputation wasn't 100% successful, after all . Pity it isn't to be called SHOWII-2!

At least u guys came up with a new name, other than puting 2 in front of the old name (call of duty, call of duty 2, call of duty 3, call of duty 4 <=== retarded activision naming there modern warfare game, its just retarded, CoD are based in ww2 not modern times :wilting: )

Will there be a website that u guys going to make only for Outfront 2? as it was for http://www.facesofwargame.com i think?

P.S. I agree on the name, i told my friends about the game and they were asking "wtf is that? a movie?" lol BUt can u guys make comercials on television from africa to Hollywood (figure of speech)

Yeah, commercials would definitely bring in more gamers to the community. It's a damn shame that S-HoWWII never got any airtime in the U.S.. I believe it would have had a much bigger community than it does now if it had.

But the StarForce protection also killed off a lot of potential buyers as well :P . Once a protection system gets a bad reputation in the PC community it's nearly a death sentence to use it in your product. I can only hope that the latest edition of the game won't have that in it.

Most of my friends who have tried out Soldiers and FoW actually preferred Soldiers over FoW. The main reason is the symbols surrounding the player's entities. Few people want to see a huge triangle magic carpet following their men and equipment over such lovely terrain. It takes away from the reality factor. The ingame controls are simpler and easier to use in Soldiers too. I gave my copy of FoW to a neighbor kid who thought the graphics on the box looked cool. He doesn't play it though :P .
