yes the game has balance issues, but i still enjoy it. and i only notice the grenade bug less often now.

this game has flaws, but what game right after release had none?

... pong?

but seriously, after i got used to the mechanics. the game has been great. I Usualy play on the "no heroes" or slaughterhouse servers since they ping nice and have lots of players.

recommended the game to my friends as well.

Look man, paddling balls was so 80s. Get over it. It's all about the teabagging.

Come to think of it, teabagging in ND due to ragdoll death cam would be kinda humiliating.

nope, you'll see that pick up again either after a sale/free weekend or at Christmas, which is when a lot of players will pick it up because it's cheap and "looks okay".

You keep saying that, last time it was 3 servers :P. Seems to be staying steady, and possibly even rising slightly.

The game is fine. There are a lot of people who refuse to accept it's not COD and that the RTS isn't Starcraft 2, and that they actually have to have some form of socially acceptable level of communication skills to win, but other than that it's fine.

The game is not dead, it has a regular 5 to 7 full servers most times of the day when i play, there is always a few level 1 or 2 players on the servers to which means that there is still new players joining all the time as well as the higher ranked regulars. The difficult thing at the moment is when certain people find they are on the losing side they will leave and because there is no auto balancing of teams at present the winning side will have an extra advantage of more players.
What i have noticed is some of the more experienced players doing is leaving the winning side and joining the losing side to balance out the numbers and try and pull a victory from what was other wise a certain steam roll defeat. These games tend to be the best games as joining the losing side you will fight tooth and nail, and use every dirty trick you can think of to gain the advantage and try and get the upper hand.
I encourage all of you higher ranked players to do this, it makes for a better match.

Never said there were only 3 Server, so stop lieing.

And i still will post it, to give people a overview of the multiplayer activity. This is for many player a criterion for buying the game, and this is the thread is for.

/edit: I am playing at EU time never saw 5-7 full Server

Major.Pain · 10-11-2011, 03:59 AM

/edit: 5 to 7 MOSTLY full servers, or though i just checked now for the hell of it and i am sad to say there are only 3

Its midday here though so hope to be back up around 5 to 7 mark tonight.

so you're not counting anything at 31 and below?

because if that is true you are relaying the data in a very misleading fashion, as for this game being dead, the truth is far from it, it might not have as many players as a game like BF3, but this isn't a massive release and the player base will grow, and for the advertisement its received it's doing remarkably well.

Heiland · 10-11-2011, 04:11 AM

No i mean there are 5 Server which are not all full, 18 of 32 players on some or 12/32.

Yes a community must grow right, but last week there were 9 Server now 5, this is not growing for me. I hope this game gets more player, but at the moment i cannot recommend it to a friend, i gave some friends a free key but they played it once and saw there were not much players and didnt play it again.

Freeweekend in Oktober must be. Maybe lower the Price to 14,99 or so.
