Re: Reddit

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the support of the community and realise that the lifespan of the average official released game, never mind a mod can be less years than the time since we released our first public version of First Strike up to now. New games come out and people move on to the next big thing. The thing is I believe there is still life in the old girl yet, and as long as people want to play this mod we'll continue producing new content for it, but if nobody is playing this obviously effects morale, and puts off any potential new players who decide to try us out.

Indeed a middle ground has to be found, sure you're not going to play FS every day, but it is up to the community to organise times when you can all get together and play, whether it is on the weekly Community Games or some other organised event. There is a need to come together in large enough numbers to get the full First Strike on-line multiplayer experience. That is the only way we're going to see a resurgence in numbers playing the mod, and the addition of some new blood into the FS community.

Re: Reddit

Hey guys I agree alot, if not all mods rely on the community, another mod which died early on was bf pirates 1+2 loved those mods lol. I do think though that if the hoth update ever gets released there may be a spike in players but they would need to be captured into staying (lol).

I would have helped play on the servers but up until recently my bf2142 stopped working again and I couldn't find a fix until a few days ago when I also had a simialar problem with mount and blade and it fixed both games.

Anyway I would like to offer somewhat of some help, although it might not get used. I admin a vent (50 man) which is pretty unused, its from a star wars galaxies emulator community so the two aren't all that far apart ha. If people want to hang around afk in it untill people get on and know eachother want to play etc or play whilst talking(which is always more fun) hop on.

Heres the info, if it is actually helpful might make a thread with the details on it...
Server: V48.DARKSTARLLC.COM
Port: 4101

and to access the first strike sections the password is: fsmod

Put a password on incase the other community did use it. Im Razeroth on there but if another admin gives you any form of wtf?, I'll sort it out ha.

Re: Reddit

Guys, hop on the TG server quick! Their last game is on, and we don't want to miss it. Um, I'm not sure at what time it is, they weren't clear on that, but hop on all the same. I don't think it starts until a few hours from now, but they already are playing. This could be much needed players for FS. We need to show our support.

Also, I'll give you TS3 details, but I can't remember them right now. I strongly encourage you to hop on their TS3, as they are very team oriented, plus talking couldn't hurt.

EDIT: You won't be able to join TS3 due to some complex security measures. I asked if they could change it. Sorry.

And the event starts at 6PM EST. You better be there!

Re: Reddit

6pm EST?? Whats that, like 2300 GMT? Which would be midnight CET...pretty late for a lot of euros but I shall try to stay up for it. If any other guys fancy staying up to see what its like then I'm in. I can provide a vent server if people want coms, unless BI would like to help host the coms for this one?

Re: Reddit

For some games of BF2142? Hmmm, could be around for that if I can stay awake, did a late one last night to get the first semester assignment for my PG Cert Degree in today on top of everything else, but at least that means that it is done for now and I can get a bit of my life back, just got a mountain of assignments to mark now, heh, no rest for the wicked eh?

If I haven't collapsed by then I might make an appearance, but to be honest I'm already flagging, might have a nap and get up for that.
