Jon "hyvlarn" Edelsvärd: I am very pleased to join such an organisation as H2K and take my gaming onto the next level. Along with H2K I also team up with some of my old mates who I've always wanted to play with again. But leaving Playzone wasn't an easy choice at all. I wish all the best luck to my teammates and Playzone-Gaming.

Richard "Xizt" Landström: After the big disappointments at IOL Zyppe lost his motivation to practice and become greater as a team. We feel really sad to replace Samuel since he is a great guy and we have shared lots of joy and laughs since we started playing with eachother, but this is something we had to do since our goal is to be the best team out there.

We are happy to announce our new player: Jon "hyvlarn" Edelsvärd, he's one of the biggest talents out there at the moment and every time we have played his team its the guy we've feared the most, it just feels great having him on our side for once. Our first event with the new lineup will be The Gathering at the end of March.

Bug Fixes

Fixed an issue with High graphics settings that could cause particles not to render.

Arica Harbor Conquest mode - US Command launches a break through action directly at the Russian base. Collateral damage is of no consequence. Capture and secure tactical positions in Conquest Mode across the vast Arica Harbor map.

Laguna Presa Rush mode - The valley and surrounding mountains possess a strategic value in the battle for South America, and an infantry assault supported by light armor vehicles is likely by both armies as US forces defend the nearby Dam.

Daniel "rape" Borzsonyi: "Well me and JAEGARN started to talk about playing together, we talked about it but it didn't actually happen anything. Then about some weeks after we agreed we should fix some players and start a team, nothing deadly serious but serious. We started to look for players and since fredde (JAEGARN) has a bigger contact list then me, he fixed azl and then azl fixed fnazze. Later on we had to have our last player so I talked to everybody I have a good mate that is really good in game, and then we found godlike (David) and we just felt it was a great chemistry between us.

We then have only decided right now that we are going to play EPS Scandinavia where we are in the Playoffs now I think, and the LAN Copenhagen Games, after that we'll see if there will be any more LANs we are going to attend."
