Battlegroup: Frontlines

The goal of BattleGroup-Frontlines is to shift the players of Battlefield 2 back to the Second World War.

BattleGroup-Frontlines will feature an extremely authentic atmosphere.

Features include:

- Historically accurate vehicles, aircraft, and weapons
- Realistic and accurate sounds
- Realistic weapon aiming aiming and firing physics
- Famous battlefields

The team's goal of realism is an ambitious one, with the need of incorporating accurate striking powers and ranges of weapons. Naturally, a few things will need to be amended for the sake of quality gameplay, but with realism still held to the highest standard. We believe that it is possible to incorporate both incredible realism and exciting gameplay, and BattleGroup-Frontlines will achieve that balance.

In BattleGroup-Frontlines, you are given the option of playing as one of several great nations: Great Britain, the German Reich, America, and Russia. Smaller countries will also be involved, but not as the primary players. Besides well-known battlefields such as Stalingrad and Normandy, one will be able to assist in the defence of Stalingrad with a Polish 7Tp or assist in the fight in Normandy with a Char B.

COD4

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare introduces a variety of game play styles into the single player campaign completely new to the Call of Duty series.

The game moves away from the standard three country-specific campaign style, and allows the plot to play through more like a film style plot with interlaced story lines from the perspective of the player as Paul Jackson, a member of the United States Marine Corps 1st Force Recon and Soap MacTavish, a member of the British 22nd SAS Regiment. There is also a variety of cameo-style missions where you play as various other soldiers such as an AC-130 Spectre Gunship gunner, or as one part of a two-man sniper team behind enemy lines in a flashback style mission.

The multiplayer mode in Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare includes a class system which has five preset classes with default weapon load outs and perks assigned to them, as well as allows users to create five custom classes where the user can customize their weapon load out and three perks to assign to their soldier. The five default classes include Assault, Special Ops, Light Machine Gunner, Demolitions, and Sniper. Only two of the default classes are available to a first time player; the rest are unlocked as the player gains more experience online and gains higher rank. Create-a-class can be unlocked at level 4; players can name and save their own custom classes for quick access in multiplayer matches.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare focuses on the variation of modern warfare as an infantry soldier by allowing the player to control soldiers in a vast number of different scenarios, straying away from the constant "at eleven" action of previous Call of Duty titles and allowing for both heavy intensity fire fights and slower paced drama styled intensity. The series' move to modern warfare has also introduced a variety of new modern weapons and technology to be introduced to the Call of Duty franchise. Such showcased weapons and attachments include M203 grenade launchers, and the AN/PEQ-2 Target Pointer for use in conjunction with night vision goggles, silenced MP5SD submachine guns, and the FGM-148 Javelin portable anti-tank guided missile among many others.

Further server updates

The TF DoD:S server has been taken down due to lack of interest from the public (since we took down the arena maps rotation) and from the clan (since dod:s is a horrible game).

It will be replaced with a 12 slot GMod10 server mainly because PinPoint loves the game so much.

Anyway, Gmod10 for at least a month, until we figure out what other servers we want to run.

If you have a suggestion, leave a comment.
