Ability to set max players on a per map basis?

Max players: 16-64
Players: number of bots (it's a practice mode)

That is awesomeness.... I noticed in the one photo the guy next to the MG looks like he's reading a map and is holding his ears, and on the T34 there was something written like some art or graffiti, maybe we'll be able to customize that on tanks?

[Zetsumei]

What I meant was that servers would perhaps be able to have some maps only show up with certain player amounts. Even though all maps can scale to 16,32 and 64 players it could be that some maps are still better suited for some amounts.

Perhaps its the return of the mod penis tank.

I doubt that's a map. It just looks like one of the pieces of paper strewn about (there's another one a couple of feet away). And I would only expect the commander to be looking at a map.

Tripod mounted MG-34 looks pretty sweet. And so do those Russian kettles!

Interview also mentioned they're testing / playing around with Molotovs. I hope they can work it out and it gets into the game. If TWI can get a realistic fire system, we may see flame throwers down the line.

SWEET. thanks for heads up, you always find the info first Zets !

[Agenda_Suicide]

Screens looks great. Games progressing quite nicely, looks like it is getting close to beta if it's not already in beta.

I found this looks like tripwire is getting ready to do some advertising and what not?

Looking good, very cool

[Fedorov]

ROgasm!!

[RedGuardist]

Very, very nice pics indeed!!

I just noticed, that it seems that the German NCO´s (and therefore officers too) will wear visor caps. I know it´s nitpicking beyond understanding of most people and I´m sorry for being like this. But wouldn´t there be more realistic way to make difference between German soldiers, like for example using different gearload, like officers and NCO´s having a mapcase etc. For the Soviets visor caps and pilotkas are very fine, since they were not as strict as the Germans were with use of helmets.

Finally confirmed - tankers are not able to leave the vehicles.

[Snuffeldjuret]

Sorry if the information is easily found anywhere else..

But on a tank map and you play with like 2 friends, will you be able to get into a tank with them and not some other dudes?

(there is so mcuh to read through if you want to find all answers yourself ^^)

The pic shows the 4 difficulty settings in practise mode with "Hero" being the last and presumably the hardest mode.
Does this mean that you can play with all the Hero attributes already unlocked against bots with the same Hero abilities?

I think it is the gurrak map although it might not be new it might be another section of trainstation map .
