The problem is that IW/Activision are trying out a brand new way of making pc gaming a level playing field by using steam/IWnet and that will include a fee of some sort I guess....
The communities that will really feel the effects are the map/modding communities and probably the competitive gaming scene as well.
I think a fee is more or less guaranteed in my opinion, I mean they could quite easily sell the game for

Good post Fozzer!
Just out of curiosity, if PC gaming is now taking the VAC route does that mean PB will eventually be no more or incorporated into VAC? (if that's possible).

I think they underestimate the amount of backlash this will cause amongst the PC community. We were stung with OpFlash 2, and now we are getting screwed over again with MW2.

I am watching the OFDR forums in the 'hope' that they change their minds on anti-cheat, cd keys and dedicated servers.
Their is a petition on the IW forums for people to sign, last time I checked it was 49 pages within a short time.
I do agree with FatalityUK, talk about kicking PC gamers in the *****

well, you can use the PB message center.
in the server.cfg file add (at the very end of the file) the following line
exec msg2.cfg
and save it. Then create a new file in the folder "main" of the Game Server. Actually i don't remember where to place this file. Try this way and if doesn't work put the file in "main/pb" path. Name it as msg2.cfg and edit it with notepad.
Write the following in that file
pb_sv_taskempty pb_sv_task 15 60 "<*nextmap*>"
the two numbers are in seconds.
The first is the time before appearing the message, and the second is the time to restart the message rotation. With this values the first message appears 15 seconds after the map is loaded, and it reappears after 60 seconds. Obviously you can change the values as you want.
Save the file and restart the server. It should work :)
This method does work as I also asked the same question some time ago but the only problem is if a game finishes early, player leaves or quits if the server is close to empty, the message will continue to run irrespective of the map being played.

I've been having a read of some of the posts by other players on the OFDR forum and seems some players can't even get it to run or it does run but then crashes, it's not perfect by any means and I've listed the bugs I've found so far on the OFDR forum but for all the problems it's still enjoyable, I just hope that it doesn't take the same route as FFOW (Frontlines - Fuel of War), myself and other clans abandoned that game soon after its release as the devs seemed to abandon the community completely :(
No 'new' game is perfect by any means, with so many possible configurations of PC's I'm sure some will and do get certain kinds of errors and crashes but if they can release a patch that 'at the very minimum' addresses some of the issues then that has to be a good thing.

Played for a little while now and currently on the 3rd mission of the campaign, few problems noticed so far, certain rocks can get you completely stuck and you have to go prone to rectify it, also remapping the use key to the 'enter' key is a big no-no as it keeps you inside the ammo crate but my biggest gripe is the AI is dumb as hell, I mean you can have a PLA approx 20 metres away and even though they're under fire and taking hits they will not open fire if you've given them a hold fire command :o
Now I may be a little wrong here but if any order means endangering your life you'd disobey it but nope not these idiots they just sit there and wait to die :lol:
Apart from that I'm finding it quite enjoyable and the beach storming is just awesome, really liking this mission :D
-
OK, game delivered eventually and played a quick mission just to get used to the controls before I start the campaign, seems to run fine and it's nice to actually play on an 'open battlefield' rather than being limited to small maps and enclosed areas (COD4) and it's also more realistic when you can run 'through' a bush, yes I did say through, no going around that 2 inch bush anymore :lol:
All in all, quite pleased so far considering a few players have had problems.
-
pre-order is so you can be pissed when you don't have it and your promised extras don't work
You got that right, I'm a tad annoyed ;)
It has some issues, a lot of things are missing.Been checking out some forums too and seems a patch is on the way.

I did Duality yes, I received this 2 days ago:
Your order for Operation Flashpoint 2: Dragon Rising (with Play.com Exclusive 'Coastal Stronghold' Mission Unlock Code) has been posted.
This was sent to my e-mail address at 2.55am. I've always ordered from them and as far as I'm aware all the games I've pre-ordered have arrived on the day of release, maybe they had problems getting hold of this one but if that's the case why offer pre-order?
I hope it'll be here tomorrow otherwise I'll pre-order MW2 from elsewhere.
-
I'm enjoying it so far, its pretty good!
I'd like to be enjoying it except my delivery hasn't arrived today :angry:
I thought the whole point of pre-ordering was that you receive it on the day of release, saves you going into town and getting caught up in the traffic and the crowds, only to find the last copy has been sold, every game I've pre-ordered before has arrived on-time so I guess their's a first time for everything as they say, better be here tomorrow though!!
-
just a warning this game is ported for console . there is no anticheat protection and the multiplayer is P2P , from what im reading its a real lag fest
Don't believe everything you read, from most of those put-downs of the game a lot of the players haven't even played it yet they put it down or try comparing it to MW2, no comparison, 2 completely different games. I'll make my own mind up when I receive the game which should be in about 4 hours time, woot :)
-
Just wondering if anyone else is getting this game, released on Friday 9th Oct (UK) so I've pre-ordered it, for those that don't know the game click the link below :)

FileZilla The best ftp tool I've found, free, easy to use, and config.

I also used to use this when I was an SGA here, great little program :)
-
You'll probably find the ban will remain, irrespective of who used it that GUID was caught using a cheat, I'm sure the PB staff will let you know soon enough.
Give them time to answer, they could be busy or in work, patience :)
-
Thank you very much Taz, that was good fun, hope the server test went ok :)
-
I'm in the UK but yeah I'll jump on for a little while, if you want to give it a try out. Added to favs but my ping is terrible, 204 :blink:
50 slots is insane though, no small maps please :P

I honestly call in to question your true support of PBBans.....on our site, you post nicely....and on others you choose to bash us without reasons.
I am truly shocked, stunned, and outright saddened by the insults that we have read on other websites.....only to have folks come back here and praise us.......
I wouldn't worry about it RB, you'll find the majority that do support you, do so for a reason and that's to keep the servers clean, I'm not an SGA anymore (server too quiet) but when I was it was nice to know that you guys/gals would give up some of your free time to help keep our servers clean, updates, new information, new cheat detection tools, it is appreciated even though the majority of us might not say so that often and you only have to take a look at this thread to see some of the support you have :D

Welcome Back!! :)

LoLing @ all you kiddies PB is fucking terrid. the only reason you came up with this shit is because you suck at gaming yourself, SO you figured you go give everyone hell. Who gives a f*ck if you cheat if you pay for the game and you pay for the cheat YOU CAN DO WHATEVER THE f*ck YOU WANT TO DO! I earned the money ill do whatever the f*ck i want to do with it. Stupid ass douche bags. How about you go find a real job and hop out of your moms basements!
I sense a little anger :lol: :lol: :lol:

Great to see PBBans will be behind this new release.
Looks a fantastic game from the snippets their releasing at the moment, hope it lives up to the hype :)

I wish you and your family well RodeoBob.
Thank you for what you've done to help keep our servers clean and cheat-free over many years, it is very much appreciated!!!
Best of luck :)

Last night I was being approached by many. There were some to offer condolences and some to find out what happened and some to offer places to re-ignite the community in a new place.
It's great to see the community pull together and try to keep the site alive by offering what they can :)
Sad to see them go after such a long time :(

Not giving much away are they ;)
[COD MW2] No dedicated servers or PB

I have signed the petition but I will not be joining the x-fire group under that banner, no offence but it just makes us all look like porn-loving, swearing idiots, could you not have found something more subtle but with the same kind of impact?
That image originated from a foul-mouthed spammer on the IW forums and that spammer had a lot of threads deleted, some of those threads highlighting good points from the PC gamers and asking very good questions to IW.
