Classic conquest funwar 8v8+

Hey guys

I have been thinking about if it was possible to set up a standard classic conquest funwar with me and my danish irl friends - with fun I mean "not for specific training or big win in mind" -> strictly for the laughs, pressure on flags can be lowered, etc. - basically just organised chaos with communication :-).

So I thought I would ask and hear if anybody from the Simple community would be interested in playing vs. us maybe on a sunday or friday night in the near future. If there is no interest for commitment it is all understandable and I will probably ask a league team like TnS or Tamplier.

Who are we? Its mostly my gaming danish irl friends (+Lighty and Mammo) who have very mixed experience with BF42 - so the skill difference will range from decent players to moderate beginners and therefore I'm also a bit cautious about arranging it vs an experienced team :-).

Have a nice day :-)

Re: Classic conquest funwar 8v8+

Sounds amazing Doubti. Also my Turkish gang is asking if we could play together, with some of them i currently met but they have experience, rest of them are old gang. But since Magnus is in military service and Scorpion has a problem with his computer, gathering only the rest of them may not be challanging or we could not be as strong as you are. But if i could manage to do it so I'll let you know:)

You are just jealous of some real skill and good teamplay since you lack completely all of it. No worries, you will never ever be even invited to any clan, so u can quietly keep hating eveything and everyone. Just shut up now..

Good you realized and deleted ur post with -2 rep straight away

What world did you join from?
1. How likely do you think it is that public players even want to play this sort of thing?
2. Do you trust "random players" to meet up on a certain date and time? It will be pretty sad if I convince 7 of my friends to do this, and then no one shows up smile

SW is pretty good and especially the map El Aghaila. A funwar on this map would be fun.

We also did Anzio. Although I prefer Raid, it was an intense fight. Some of these expansion maps are really good.

Maybe we can discuss than in another thread big_smile.  I just wanted to see if it was possible to find a team/people for a funwar a friday ogrsunday night, which looks like possible :-) - but we (us danes) start with playing classic BF42 before we install new mods or maps :-)

BF League doesn’t care about expansion maps, they prefer playing shitty memo maps over and over again. I never understood why they never got into the expansions. There is no excuse for bf league players to not have the expansions installed.

I had a lot of fun and good experience playing the "new" memo maps, but that is many many years ago now from 2009-11, so I understand what you mean and you are right! - the league could really need some "new fresh air" :-).

What expansions should I install and what maps is suited for 8v8+? And by expansions I don't mean "fun mods" like Pirates or DC, but something similar to BF42.

I would suggest installing both Secret Weapons and Road to Rome, you can download them from the forums under the Announcement header.

For Secret Weapons, I would suggest maps like Hellendoorn and Raid on Agheila. For Road to Rome, Santo Croce, Anzio and Salerno.

Here is a video of a 8v8 clanwar Flettnerman and I organized for demonstrative purposes on the Raid on Agheila map.

Nobody knows about this map yet this was one of the most fun and crazy match I’ve played. And Flet’s team kicked our asses:

Hey Sommarel. Nice that you are replying, but overall it seem's like the community ain't really interested - which is all fair. I have moved and asked UF to play us, and if it is a succes I will continue with organising wars.

Funny enough I have had quite some succes asking on danish it/tech forums about my bf42 funwar idea, and there have been several old (school) bf42 players replying. So I'm hoping they will commit so we can have some danish funwars durinf the corona-winter :-)

Now we are just dealing with the usual BF42 problems and the neverending problems with punkbuster we have to get sorted out big_smile

What could be interesting to do, and this was mentionned on BF-League forums, would be to have some sort of North America vs Europe match.
