I hope the scenarios are good quality and fun, and have a nice long play time even. If you're concerned about keeping the fan base waiting, maybe 9 scenarios 040 and 041. It'll be nice to be able to call that mod finished though its gonna be hard to give up adding new features for absolute bug squashing and balance polishing.
Hopefully this set of official scenarios will be followed by a second pack, by the team or other modders working from the example.
Good Job, Can('t) wait...I hope I can get Talia out alive!

I've been following a lot of different mods for different games over the years. I'm still amazed how organized and time efficient the FFH team is. Most mod teams dissolve into confusion and the project becomes vaporware.
I think that Kael's unofficial policy of hard release date deadlines really pushes the project forward well. I've noticed that whenever the team leaders of many other mods are asked "when will 'mod x' be released," the team leaders respond, "mod x will be done when it's done" which almost always means, that "nothing is getting done."

I think 0.40 is still not 1.00
But hard to believe we are still under 50% ? (0.50 ?)

I tend to think you should get rid of the labels for unique features, or change them to a type of labels we can remove in game. Having that many "Guardian of the Prisin Pass" labels so close seems like it could get really annoying. If you zoomed out more then they would almost completely cover everything. Also, why did "Pristinus" become "Pristin?" I prefer Pristinus.

They ran out of the text field. So it's either "Pristin Pass" or "Pristinus Pa".

What about Guard of Pristinus Pass, instead of Guardian...

Excuse me while I wipe the drool off my keyboard...
Scenarios. Oh, man, I'm not even sure which one I'm going to try first. I'll probably get killed and eaten a few times, but, oh, man...
EDIT: I'm probably saying too much, but I'm looking forward to the reactions to one scenario's unexpected guest star...

Loved that Talia story their. Great setup for a scenario, if I'm reading its intention right. Are the scenarios going to be telling a complete-ish story or are they sort of a snap-shot of various bits of lore?
Also, do you think you'll make more scenarios once the mod is "done"?

As in all things FfH'ish they are a mix. Some a very story centric, some are games with unusual mechanics and victory conditions. I want them to play differently than the epic game, and play differently than each other.
I doubt I will, I'd rather tweak and improve the ones we have. But I'm hoping that people are surprised at how easy it is to do a lot of very weird things in scenarios and it encourages others to make scenarios of their own.
This is great news. I agree with others that I'm truly impressed by how quickly the FFH team works, and you put out quality work, as well. I don't know if you're some kind of Agile guru, or if you routinely kidnap team members on their way home from their day jobs, but whatever technique you use, great work!
I'm definitely looking forward to the scenarios, but I'm equally anticipating any tweaks to existing features or gameplay that might come about. Would one of the team members care to give a hint as to how much of 0.40 will consist of new, altered, or re-balanced features?

What I really wonder about is what will come AFTER 0.40.
I mean 0.40 is well below 1.0 , but the mod is already an entirely new product.
As you now even include mini-games like the Dungeons or Somnium you simply dont need to play anything else !
In general I am just deeply impressed by the performance of the FFH-team over the last more than 2 YEARS. I would really like to know what you people will do at the moment when you will be finished. In general you will certainly never forget FFH 2, as will we never forget it ....

Remember, this is 2.40. It is called FfH II for a reason
