Topic: Attempt to revive

Hi,

I am new to this mod and would like to play it against other people. The obvious problem is that not many people play it anymore and the servers are empty at this moment. To be able to get some people playing this again, there need to be some people in the server.

The problem is that the only way for two people to enter at the same time is either by luck, appointment or by waiting in the server for a long time.

So I was thinking on how to improve this. The best thing I could think of at this moment is by posting your in game name here so others can add you as a "buddy" in game. I assume that when you play Battle Field 2142 or another mod the buddy list is the same. This allows you to play Normal Battle Field and when someone else who wants to play First Strike comes online, you can agree to join a First Strike server.

Second thing is, you can post your IM account here so people can add that and then you can see when other players are up for a game without having to be in Battle Field.

I hope my efforts are not in vane because I would love to try this mod.

My info:
In game name: Getijsem
msn: getijsem AT hotmail.com
gtalk: matthijs.wessels AT gmail.com
yahoo: matthijs.wessels AT yahoo.com

(The AT instead of @ is just to prevent spam bots from picking it up).

Ok, so when?

Re: Attempt to revive

Indeed, it doesn't matter where they are, just gather the troops on a chosen server and they should come. Saturday and Sunday nights are usually a good bet around 8pm GMT. I'm not usually around on a Saturday, but shall endeavour to be around for some FS fragging on Sunday. Will poke the other devs a bit to get them out there too.

Re: Attempt to revive

Seeing as I don't have anything to do for four days, if anyone wants to play, just tell me on xfire (Blind3001). I'll see if I can get some people to join then.

Re: Attempt to revive

Ok, so what do we do to organize a community game?

Re: Attempt to revive

We just need to choose a server willing to host it and turn up pretty much. The server needs to have admin present to make sure everything runs smoothly too ideally.
