no it is defidinatally a E2QB

He's right, ladder 4 has a q mounted right in the center of the bumper. You can see it better in this video. I have no idea why they have it though, since FDNY SOPs banned the actual mechanical ones.

Any chance of an updated street scene? Maybe a fire with some towers in operation? Just a taste to tide us hungry folks over?

they demounted their Q a long time ago... the video you've linked to is an old one... ladder 4 has definitely no mech Q anymore since they have to use their EQ2B... but lets stop discussing about this siren thing now, BTT!

decided to show you the rework of battalion 1, still gets improved

asking for it doesnt make us give out any screen faster, just quite the opposite... we give out things when we think its right to

[MikeyPI]

You mean this topic isnt about discussing NYC related toys unrelenting? There is actually a modification buried somewhere in the pages... I could've sworn different. Perhaps just perhaps someone in here that feels like it could make a topic in OFF topic to discuss these things opposed to splitting this topic 2000 times for a total of 108 pages that I'd guess less than 25 are about the actual mod it's self. Elas BTT of ze mod that supposedly lies beneath all the offtopicness.

The Batt. just gets better n better.........i cant wait for this to comeout

[Wkboy714]

Indeed, that's a great BC vehicle. With this quality of the fire department, I'm dribbling of curiosity for the other agencies

I hear you brother. I'm just letting you know that us diehards are getting restless for some new screen shots or a major update. We're on your side. We understand the time and effort that you guys are putting in. Believe me, nobody appreciates it more than I do. I understand that you guys want to keep many things quiet until the release. I think that giving us more info and screenshots and such won't hurt your cause. It would get the community more excited for the release. The problem is that we have no idea when that is going to be. We can't ask about it either. So we could go round and round for another two years talking about sirens and getting another 50 pages of BS speculations. If you need help, please ask. We all love what you are doing, and any one of us would bend over backwards to make this the best mod ever. If not, then please understand that we are your biggest supporters. We ask for updates because we are excited about what you are doing. There are plenty of mod announcements on this forum where nobody really cares about what they are doing. Yours isn't one of them. Please take this as a compliment. You guys are rock stars. You've been asked to do an encore. Us fans want more because we like your music. It's a compliment that not everyone receives.

I agree 100% with what he's saying. Also, if no updates come around, we'll be looking back at the first page and racking our brains to wonder what we could say about it when it has already been said insome other page. We don't want to cause spam but we're thinking about new things to talk about but can't think of anything (until you update us). To help this along, I would like to ask if you made your own voices for certain commands or if you've put things from radio talk for commands.

[mstrkrft]

agreed with the two posts above.. two years is a long time especially when we are very limited in what we are allowed to ask without getting banned from topic.. i'm sure many are wondering if they will ever see NY mod at all.. new updates keep the dream alive

[Newfoundking]

Questions are limited to what they want to answer. We don't ban if they don't want to answer. We ban only if you ask release dates. Avoid that, and it's all good by me.

I really can understand you guys, wating for something isn't easy... and you don't know how much we appreciate comments like yours, those keep us going in times the motivation is underfoot
And now some statements:
"Why do we keep so much information and in-game screenshots as a secret?"
We keep most things as secrets, yes. There are some good reasons, let me explain. Believe me its better for all of you not to know what exactly is included in the modification... this has two main reasons:

Reason one: The surprise of what we've made is much bigger than to know what we have included before we are going to release it, i know that... i just go from me personally, i love to see new games released and to play them... i follow the developing process they did and every developer has its own presenting style. Some tell you everything, some the most important to keep you updated. As for me, i like the second option... yes it can be annoying to wait so long but when i play the game then and see things i never expected to be included... i think all of you know that feeling.

Reason two: This reason is the most important for us. On the one hand it's the surprise thing and on the other hand it's better for all of you, except a few people, not to know how big this project is and how our concept looks like. Believe me, you would call us crazy.

I know what you may think now.
"Why can't you show us little impressions then?"
There is an easy answer:
We are working on our final concept since the begginging of summer 2010, it's a big project but it's process is coming along fine. It has a reason why the "We introduce our modification" part on the first page is still empty.
Believe me guys, we are going to present you all information with some big media package when we feel that it's the right time to. Yes, we could give out screenshots right now at this moment... but this wouldn't be very good because currently everything concerning the map, etc is under construction. You wouldn't buy and move into a new apartment just from visiting the construction site, you take a visit after its quite finished and you see what you can expect from it and we are currently working on to this "final visit" but this still takes time.
All in all, we are going to show you information and screenshots of this big and special project but this still can take a while, i know this may sound stupid because it's always the same waht you hear "this can take a while" or "just be patient". The only thing we can do is giving out some screenshots of little things to keep you updated until we have our "information package" done to present it for the public.
I really wouldn't had wrote a text like this, which took me a half an hour to write my feelings down and find the right words to make it clear for all of you how and why we handle the publishing thing the way we handle it, when i wouldn't be in earnest with it.

5 in total now, we were three people... i think you may remember but after developing the new concept we took two very talented guys on board additionally and everything works fine

*Pinned my statement on first page under "We introduce our modification"*

[Jakethejake]

We appreciate your reply! We're looking forward to seeing the media package!

[Hex]

forget the media package to play tho mod is what i want

[Jakethejake]

I agree. But it sounds like we'll be waiting for some time. When we get the media package, the game will be close behind.

[erfd]

Very well said FFW TUT. That was what I was waiting to hear.

[MikeyPI]

Not only that but conceptual stage things change, sometimes what you intended to do you find either doesnt work so well or alternatively is just inefficient and leave out at the final build, which if you told everyone you were doing it, it'd make some frustrated that it wasnt included in the final regardless to the logic behind it. Sometimes saying less is better than saying everything and having to go back on it later.

[matte31]

I hope you guys can answer this question..
Is it going to be some new hazmat missions? I really want to use Haz-tac etc!
