Topic: ABR

knowing that project realty is (going) to use ABR, i was wondering is First Strike was going to aswell.

Re: ABR

Now THAT would be totally awesome! I think the mod will greatly gain publicity if this feature is going to get implemented because there are quite a few people out there who'd only play on ranked servers!

Re: ABR

would there be anyway to convert your rank from mod to mod via your rank on a specific mod as compared to the generic ranks in BF:2? 

In other words, if you were ranked as a fleet commander in First Strike, but you wanted to play Forgotten Hope (just an example), instead of giving you the bottom rank in FH, the system would compare your FS mod rank with the BF:2 generic ranks, and assign it an equivalency.  Say FS Fleet Commander rank = BF:2 General rank.  Then the system would take your "mod rank" (because I'm sure they would never allow it to be the same as your actual BF:2 rank) and compare it to FH's rank system, so when you play FH, it would give you their equivalent to the BF:2 General rank.  i.e. BF:2 General rank = FH General rank = FS Fleet Commander rank = WAM (Wierd pie Mod) Supreme Chancellor rank.

I'm not sure if that made sense, but I hope you understand what I'm asking.

[Edit]  I forgot to mention this, but I'm sure that medals wouldn't be transferable between mods.  I mean, what medal would be the same in FH as the 'Expert X-Wing Pilot' medal in FS?

Re: ABR

In my opinion each mod should have it's own system. I mean if you are good in FS but not in FH it wouldn't be fair if you automaticially have your points transfered. I think you know what I mean.
