Finally got my adsl , so wondering if anyone are still playing and what server!

Elitewarriors 32-man Server
IP: 85.236.101.63 Port:17167 (if that IP doesn't work, just filter for Elitewarriors and it pops up).

That's my clan's server (the other one is currently running 32-man PRMM) and it's pretty smashing if I do say so myself (what ho, old bean, and all that jazz). They're well-admined (so base-campers need nt apply) and its generally pretty full at all the right gaming times. Hope you see you on there

vulk me!

Z man get XFIRE and knock me in as m3thod

I recently got banned from a good server, turns out the guy i called a %&$!head was the admin!

Only playing 64 player servers. Trying to find a good, well admined one that allows base raping from the ground. There seems to be a direct corrolation between servers that allow base raping and servers aren't admined right.

And dont bother with the Bamboo morons er i mean commandos server eh mogambo

Played a bit on the superserver 24/7 karkand server lately,has really good pings(dunno if it'd be the same for you tho!)

If you find a well admined 64 player server let me know. I cant find one anywhere. I play some of the TV2 servers, which allow base rapping but you have to accept being shot out a plane/helo by some moron with a M95.

Cheers,


Ant

I'm still around... got sucked into World of Warcraft... but was wondering the same thing... if anyone still played.

I take it Mogambo's server has gone away?


Guess we need to find us a new place to hang out...

Any suggestions?

Jolt #3 Operation Smoke Screen, this is where have been playing a lot and i ping around 19-22 on here

OSS is a corker...massive Challenger 2 vs T98 Tanks battles, each side gets around 8-10 tanks, MiG29 vs Eurofighter, Mi28 v Tiger HAP attack helos, Linebacker vs Tungska and by the oil storage facility there is near zero visability cos of the thick black smoke i.e. lay down those mines!...oh and there is a nice wind farm to boot....

This map rocks and the EU voices are still kinda funny. Stop being stingy n00bskies its only £6 /$10

well the old skool GS guys are back huh?!!! Sorry to break it to you guys but the Blackhawk is now about as useful as a punch to the head!



Damn right

Only do Vanilla BF2. Why would I want to give EA more money? Next EA game I buy will be C&C 3.

Pah, save your money and get Supreme Commander instead

I play vanilla and occassionally PRMM (although I haven't recently because BotComet is labouring with the new version), which is a cracking mod and certainly worthy of your attention Dark0ne if you don't want to further fund EA.

Our old 64-man (discontinued now to make way for a second 32 man for BF2 and some more stuff, maybe 16-man CS and something else) used to ban base-rapping of all types, because on DV (our home map) occasionally you'd get a couple of APCs sit on the hill that overlooks the carrier and just sit their for the entire match, while planes blew the smeg out of everything. At least, they did for about five minutes before the admins arrived and delivered rich creamy justice to the fools.

How come you look for ones that allow ground base-rapping Dark0ne, just out of interest?

Because there's nothing wrong with it. If the idiots can't work out to use a different spawn and come after us from a different direction then they shouldn't be playing. Similarly if it's the only spawn they have then (1) they should have enough people spawning to easily overwhelm the rapers and (2) they shouldn't have been crap enough to lose their spawns in the first place.

Got to wonder what the difference is between the people who camp uncappable spawns and the people who camp capable spawns. Both times the camper isn't going to cap the flag, so whats the difference?

I don’t see the problem with base raping. I've been playing DV and improving (or trying to) my flying skills and the TV2 servers allow non-cap base raping. So I admit that sometimes when USMC have no other flags I target the Essex, not to kill the guys on the carrier but to take out helo's and jets taking off to stop them causing trouble for my team mates (and I do this only after taking out the rear AA otherwise i end up barrel-rolling away with my tail between my legs). It's called air superiority right? Once USMC takes some inland flags I try to help out to clear the path for the guys on the ground to take them back. However, even thought this is allowed on some server, you always get victims who are constantly initiated kick votes against you, just for kicking their arse. Well if they don’t like being killed sitting in the Essex AA or trying to get a helo inland then don’t bother trying. Spawn under the carrier and take the rib, or spawn at the docks or another flag if you have one. Hell, I hear these kids cry 'it's not fair', well what is fair in war? Wipe you eyes and get used to it.

However, if a server has rules saying no non-cap base raping then you have to respect that and dont do it. Again if you dont like the rules...

Hmm. Our server doesn't allow raping of uncappable flags but neither does it have the punish/kick system on it. This lets the admins control who gets chucked off not the player who has just been shot for the eighth time just as he's spawned.

I think it depends a little bit on the map. For instance on DV the Essex spawn in a cast-iron bugger to break out of if you have APCs and jets watching every vehicle that leaves the carrier. But on FuShe or something, I think it's okay because there is more than one way to break out and, given a decent force working together, can do it pretty easily.



Interesting point. I'd say its because there are other spawns people can come from to kill the camper, rather than having to constantly spawn at the same place under the camper's guns. It takes away the fun for the guy getting shot and, I imagine, for the camper as well.

Sounds to me like you agree with base raping, then, so long as it's not the last flag the enemy has.

That's what I thought base-raping was Apologies, my leet-speek leaves much to be desired. I disapprove of camping any spawn rather than caping it since its no fun for anyone, but then I also disapprove of bunny-hopping and dolphin-diving - I'm a bit of a purist. But while I have to put up with those two, I can choose a server that shares my dislike of camping. Having said that, I've never actually played on a server and been camped, unless its last-flag uncappable camping.

Some of the funnest days of the GS BF2 server were spent with the GS crew sat in the enemy's uncappable bases. 2 of us with sniper rifles, 2 medics and 2 anti-tank stealing the enemy's jets or shooting them as they left and just causing a ruckus. All good fun.

It was an excellent alternative to the usual crap of getting a tank or jet and crapping on everyone's parade. After a while the stats mean nothing and you look for other ways to entertain yourself, like parachute less base jumping, etc.

woioooow, the znik is back! well, still play you ask? nop not really, thinking about restarting in the holidays, but that is still 2 months to go
