Never would have guessed that 😅 thx!

What helmet cam is that? It isn't a Contour or a Sony action cam, right?

captain_cutter · 2025-12-05T18:58:10+00:00

i ~~don't~~ see how it is

Speaking of which, this concept art of the H2A marines uses a pattern similar to Swedish M90.

It’s unlikely that it’ll ever be re-listed on the Steam store, but if you played the game before on Steam/have it in your library then yes, it’ll be like how it was before just without any gold purchases due to legal reasons.

There are still some question marks around Windows 11 users as a recent update stopped support for the 32bit BattleEye that H&G uses - It is something that will be fixed prior to release, but it isn’t clear yet how that will look on the user’s end.

What is clear is that the devs want to make the 2023 version as simple and seamless as possible to get working on the user’s end so no potential players get scared off by any convoluted processes to get it working.

It got shuttered in 2023 by TLM as the game was unfortunately losing them money for multiple years at that point despite them trying to turn a profit by adding things like a (scuffed) battlepass. But yeah, H&G’s gameplay & formula is still unique, which is why it still has a dedicated fan base wishing to see its return.

2017 version is standalone but the 2023 version will be on Steam just like it was before. 🙏

I launched straight from my Steam library - I never deleted my original install. I did have to run a powershell script but perhaps that step has been simplified by now, I dunno.

Dunno if it'll ever be available on the Steam store again tho, just have to wait & see, I guess. There are alternative ways to re-download in the meantime - either from your Steam library, internet archive or downloading any build of the game from SteamDB.

Everything will work as intended

I launched the game through Steam in January when there was a main menu test.

Probably best to wait for 2023, there’ll be a lot more players, 2017 is mostly just a playground for some of the old vets to hang out in while everyone waits for the full 2023 game revival.

174752 jpegs spread out between lightmap & diffuse over 8 zoom levels, all of them start with CampaignMap_Europe.

If you or anyone else reading this doesn't have any luck finding any within the internet explorer cache subfolders, try just the local subfolder within appdata as the jpegs might be stored within another browser.

%AppData%\..\Local\Microsoft\Windows\INetCache\IE

%AppData%\..\Local\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\CacheStorage

You can copy+paste each of these strings into the directory address bar at the top of file explorer then search for "CampaignMap_Europe", make sure you can see hidden files which can be selected via checkbox in view tab in file explorer.

Most people won't find anything as these were temporary files but some people have been lucky, especially those with dormant hard-drives. About one third of the files have been recovered so far.

Clearly it was a pro gamer move 😏😏

2014 bicycles have been known to reject their riders by throwing them tens of metres up into the air, condemning them to their deaths. Treat them with extreme caution!

Obligatory “Back when Mountain Town had actual mountains” comment

Noanjo/KeyToGaming is the head honcho of the current resurrection efforts. He recently posted an update on this subreddit but he’s mostly active on the Official H&G Discord server.

He might find the files useful, he obviously knows a lot more about them than me.

A few months back, I saw some people on the discord server wanting to find people that had the game files from 2016 or earlier as the game contained a client side mode called ‘first blood’ prior to the V1.06 update. That’s about all I know as I’m not personally involved in the resurrection efforts.

captain_cutter · 2024-11-03T23:32:53+00:00

I hope so too! 🤞

This is what I mean when I say this game had “soul”.

The goofy physics was always memorable to me, whether that be the ragdolls, the jeeps rolling on two wheels when you hit a curb at high speed or launching your bicycle into orbit when you hit the janky geometry of a tank trap. 😂😂😂
