I thought with all of the mods coming for half life 2 that it would kill hidden and dangerous, but after playing the game... it's really not all i thought it was. sure it's fun for throw cinder blocks and TVs at people, but... as far as the engine goes, besides the great physics, hidden and dangerous can hold it's own ground. when these new WWII mods come out, they might look a bit prettier, but all they'll be is hidden and dangerous with physics and nicer bullet impacts :) thank god! long live H&D2!

the advantage hl2 will have tho is that there is an editor and map maker.

which means you will be able to re-enact the fights from saving private ryan and band of brothers. which is a shame coz the community are crying out for a editor for H&d2. but we have to put up with what we ar given..... :(

man o man... band of brothers was a cool show, but the locations are TOTALLY unrealistic, they were all made for the glory of the movie, the real carentan never had a tthree story cafe with MG42's in it... thats all made up, as for every other town, they are all used over and over as new towns, it's all FAKE, read the book if you want realism. The foy level was filmed inside a studio, it was ALL fake, and as far as saving private ryan goes, it's basically fake too, at least it was filmed outdoors, the d-day scene was the only actual battle that took place, the rest was made up.
