Heroes & Generals now available on Steam
Heroes & Generals, the World War 2 themed MMOFPS from Denmark based developer Reto-Moto has made the jump from pseudo-browser powered FPS to a full fledged Steam release starting today. The move to Steam marks a long journey for Heroes & Generals as it was one of the first 10 games to actually be Greenlight through Steam almost two years ago.
Since then the FPS has enjoyed a steady amount of updates, adding in new ground and air vehicles, weapons, paratroopers, an improved UI and a more intuitive character progression on top of the usual bug fixes and balance tweaks.
For those who tried Heroes & Generals in the past, but didn't have much luck with the browser plugin, the addition of a standalone client through Steam should alleviate any outstanding issues while still allowing players to retain their character progress as both versions offer access to the same servers.
To celebrate the launch, Reto-Moto has released a new trailer which features plenty of albeit unintentional comical acting and an appropriate amount of explosions for any World War 2 shooter.
Players interested in trying the game through Steam can utilize their existing account to login and play otherwise they can signup for a new one on the official site here.

It's a little bit of a "something for everybody" update.
Whelp, we finally have a release window, at least?
Blizzard also looks back on 2024 with some fun stats.
The mods you can get for weapons are unlocked the same for subscribers as non-subscribers, same mods are used and even the same damage rates. It is literally ALL the same.
I think them majority of the people claiming Pay 2 Win are bad players that can't handle a legitimate FPS game. Sometimes you will go on killing sprees and feel like god, other times you will feel like the unluckiest person in the world. The rendering distance is pretty much the entire map so even if they're so far away they are just 4 pixels running across your screen you WILL still see them.
Went back in the game several times both in beta and after launch, but always got turned away by the payment model. Still, by the looks of it it seems to work for them quite alright.
Maybe i will give the Steam client a try to, just to see how it runs. H&G is a good game, but not a good F2P game.
