Is It Just Me?

Release date for GHR3 on xbox pushed back to Feb 2006...

so i'd say we got a wait of about a year and a half, if ever.

AA cbs are possible but you need a server. I have been in a few and they are quite fun.  We did them for the damn ladder against Toxic and someone else I dont remember.

But, since AA isn't much here a lot of the best players have joined exclusive AA clans to war there.

I love how ghost claims to be to poor to buy premium, but he just got a 300 + dollar iPod video.

i never claim so, man i own 2 companys and i make 3,5 billion euro of turnover, so i dont need money, its just that some players are kids that cant pay for all that shit specialy cause they pay for SMS ;-)

and if we can provide a free service like the League is doing now i guess we could provide a free alternative to GR, an alternative doesnt mean GR is dead, just that who cant pay it can go on the over one

i guess this will bring back more players, not all but just more

The lack of enjoyment from playing an ancient game made me think about leaving.
The way people treat each other on this small community made me leave.

[Stripes]

Im not trying to be an asshole, but if you wan't someone to play with then buy a pc.

If you don't really wan't a pc, then i guess you gotta wait for GhR3 i'm pretty sure it'll be a very active game with hopefully many players like in the start of GhR days.

I wonder, did i remember to tell you how much i like you ghost?


Bottom line? We need a new game that brings a lot of new people, this community has got to small and well... to bitter and bitchy in many ways - if it doubled in size suddenly and we had a fantastic new game to play... i think we'd be on the road to recovery.

yeah i agree with you BFG.

it would be a little sad if there was no new audience pulling game like ghr was, before 1+ year.

AA is good, but without a way to host on GR its hard trying to get a stable base of players.

Has anybody tried an AA CB? is it possible? - The players are there I believe, alot of the clans play it.

If you play AA frequently like I do, you know there are many Mac AA players, like hundreds. Maybe even more then you'll ever see on Gameranger together. The reason why you don't see them is the bad AA support of gameranger. The GR server-list is as bad as the AA one for the moment and its easier to switch servers in AA then to exit and rejoin trough gameranger.
If gameranger would provide a better way of joining AA games and even hosting them it would be great. There are apps out there that let you host a server on your own machine. You don't even need a big upload to host a decent room. I can host up to 14 players on my 512K up.

I recently left Toxic to join a specific AA clan, the day after I joined I allrdy had a cb. There are AA cb's between Mac-clans every weekend, here. The ladder doesn't look spectacular, but at least its bussier then the FtF or BF1942 ladder here.

I just think that most people that played here for years have grown up and bought themselves bigger/better machines. Like I did, I tried ghost recon on it but it didn't feel the same as on my old comp. Escaping the lag wasn't a challenge anymore, so I got bored pretty quick. RvS was the same thing, so only BF1942 (big bandwith usage), CoD and AA left (FtF doesn't even compete with these).
How many rooms of BF on gameranger? 3-4
- CoD? 2 max
- AA 50+ ingame <- add amazing graphics, fast movement, objective based gameplay and frequent updates () and my choice was quickly made.

I invite you all to play some games with me. Here's my tracker where you can see when i'm online.

[BFG]

I certainly don't play as much as Sent, but AA is now basically the only game i play online - and you can find me or rather my tracker here. I (as most of u will know) was a GhR Addict, but like ramps said over the years just played it to death, and for me the attraction has died and its one for the bookshelf. it was good while it lasted but this is something new

There are a lot of mac guys as sent said - hell far far more than i realised since all the servers moved to 2.5 there has been a great community of Mac and Linux guys left playing 2.3, and i've had some of the best games i could have had asked for - and its great bumping into the likes of Sentinal, Saberian,  Fish, Nomad, Remy, Dark, Serval, and others i see from here

if only Gameranger would have better support for it / or perhaps if only AA would support the likes of Gameranger better.

I believe at this point you say "hooah"

[z][t-Rampage]

Evill? why is there no support for AA? a reply would be most apreciated

[DarK.]

Rampage there is, but its just a server join thing.

[[a] ferret]

Actually Scott and myself had a talk about AA a while ago.. AA is not a client/server application like GhR, RvS, or CoD that we can play on gameranger. It has Dedicated Server options only when creating a server.. Yes you can host AA and Play AA on the same mac, however, you need to start AA in your terminal (or SMX apps) and then Join via AA using your console or if you set up or ports properly and signed up your server under your AA settings at their website.. you can find your server in the built-in browser. Hope that answers that.

When will we be receive solid facts on the radical changes for DBL 2.0? I appreciate the value to the Apple-esque secrecy, but at least we get a few rumors! Don't make me go register www.DBLInsider.com 

[*DAMN Mauti]

When I have finished all the theoretical stuff  for my university diploma thesis: "Analysis and improvements of ladder systems with taking the *DBL as an example".

I have to cover the past and different systems first before I can start the real work on the *DBL 2.0.

I hope to be done with this at latest by the end of january. It's between 60 - 100 pages, not including all the concept papers for the improvements.

Do a site called www.DBLrumors.com and I'll supply you with lots of fiction to fill the pages with...stuff like: 

"In DBL 2.0 each clan will start out with $1,000.  They must make wagers when CB'ing and the clan with the most money at the end wins both a Season Winner Icon as well as the jackpot, worth $10,000 US."

i guess i must have a look to this AA stuff !!!

i just too romantic to leave ghr ;-)

but agreed that we need a new game that will bring us back together
