aX keeps making deadly mistakes.

{Phantom} · 2016-10-06 11:37:40

The first mistake was to not release the files to the public for anyone to host a master server in case something were to happen to the man in charge of aX.

The second mistake is to have never once changed the map rotation on the aX server, and for years some maps have not been played even once simply because one man does not enjoy playing these maps. Not sure he even plays online more than once a year..

The third mistake is quite possibly the worst, out of total selfishness and greed he refused to work with Battlelog.co in order to keep the Battlefield 1942 game alive and more popular than ever. This Revive team has grown Battlefield 2 playerbase to 1,000+ players at any given moment and now Battlefield 2142 playerbase from around 10 players to over 800 on any given moment at peak times!

Yes, it is fact Revive team attempted to work with aX but he refused out of greed, wanting to control the game for himself. There is good news though, eventually the Revive project may be able to work with Battlefield 1942 and bring back the players aX has forced away... and more!

i disagree with #2, the simple forum has become the de facto universal bf1942 forum, because the owner seemingly dont mind or maybe even wants it that way. i think its very beneficial to bf1942 or any game to have a free, embracing forum such as this

i find this the right place to discuss stuff like phantom mentions

i havent researched/confirmed that bf2142 uprising, but it looks real, and if it is, then its an amazing feat

from an egoistic point of view, short term, im not sure i want a wave of new players into bf1942. i was sickened by the stupidity/skill level of the origin players, and their almost straight-up refusal to learn/research/improve their game

the skill level on ax and other servers that previously were origin-infested is now almost acceptable, but it took four years

on the other hand, player levels for bf1942 anno late 2016 are now all-time critically low, and itll get worse and worse as time progresses, so its either plague or cholera for me - too few players or too many noobs, if that revive thing would happen again to bf1942. and if it did, wait till about 2020 until skill levels have increased again

Mm, yes. We should pay more attention to this. It's very important, we are all affected by it.

Lol! ABAS or whatever his weird name is removed his post!! Great work, gentlemen!

nämeless · 2016-10-12 07:43:37

Phantom, why did you create six more fake accounts to give positive reputation to the first comment of this thread and negative reputation to Abas? Is it really something important for you?

(BB)DinkW · 2016-10-12 07:46:49

Ah so that is the measure of this thread? I will not bother with this anymore then thanks Nameless.

But the newbies can and in most cases will learn, so imo I would avoid being too judgmental. Especially with a game this old, and like you said with lowering player numbers. Few men should not ride on their high horse. And this post is not in any way personal, just the way I see stuff.

How would BF1942 Revive change the community/player amounts? Not familiar with BF Revive projects.

Like you said, the community has a lot more to offer. I'm inclined to promote Finnwars, and now would be the perfect time to get grips with the mod, since the mod gets very active leading up to and around December. Every day around 20:00 UTC+2 there's some players on the server. More details from ---> http://team-simple.org/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3097

Melfius I · 2016-10-14 01:52:37

Thats true. I will download Finnwars, and probably FHSW

Melfius I · 2016-10-14 01:55:05

Only if i have disk space aviable. I also want to install my GTA SA, Darkest of Days, Cod 4, and especially Assassins Creed 1. But i have to decide..... I still really want FHSW

To the people who are not familiar with battlelog.co/Revive Network:
They succeeded in bringing hundreds of players back to Battlefield 2 before and now they did the same with Battlefield 2142. What they do is they create their own launcher for the game (as of now they have BF2 and BF2142 in one launcher), which actually includes the whole game with expansions in one simple download. That's what their strongest point is, the ease with which you can get the game and start playing it. And believe me, the players are not all noobs or whatever. Many of the BF2 players also went on to playing BF2142 and I'm sure that excisting playerbase will come to BF1942 when Revive Network will start working on a launcher for it. This means they already have Battlefield skills. The majority of players who started playing BF2 again are still playing it now, so it's not just a temporary solution. Also, their Discord server is booming and their community is great.

In my opinion the Battlefield 1942 community could greatly improve if Revive will work on it. I've played on several different BF1942 servers again lately and I'm kind of horrified by the brutality of some players and the flame wars going on in several ingame chats. Now if the remaining Battlefield 1942 communities would let go of their own ideals and all work together with Revive, I believe (and with me several others) that we could make Battlefield 1942 great again.

If the Revive team would gonna release the same binaries (just like s[Sk] and Tuia did) with different master server, that is linking to for example; master.battlelog.co for Bf1942 then that might be possible.

Black Mamba · 2016-10-14 21:04:26

battlelog is not going to waste time with bf1942 (someone asked the battlelog admins about reviving bf1942 and they mentionned aX as a reason why they wont invest some of their time in a bf1942 revival effort). tbh I think them coming here to "revive" the game will just split the community even more and it is not needed. there is nothing more they can offer to us that hasnt been done by SK and tuia tbh. I would like to see them revive BF Vietnam though.
