Re: Goodbye EA/DICE/BF2

PoE stats are diffrent tehn bf2 stats there will be no ranks or badges or medals the stats will just be how long you have played each map,kit,and vehicle. along with how many kills and deaths you have

Exactly, when Battlefield 2 Demo was first released, almost everybody prasied it as people here are doing for PoE right now. Once the novelty and sense of "new" decays, the message of "Doomsday for BF2" will be gone. For me, I'll be enjoying both Battlefield 2 and Point of Existence 2.

Re: Goodbye EA/DICE/BF2

if it turns out good it'll be like DC and POE from BF1942
most'll be playing it instead of BF2

I think initially a lot of people'll play
mainly because of no strong antiair in BF2 so air units ruin the game round after round

MODs are made by the community
they are not usually unbalanced like BF2

sadly DC and POE did not win fans because it was balanced
BF1942 is quite balanced compared to BF2

I think MODs need details and balance to become the official or de facto popular "vanilla-replacing" MOD

POE2 is definitely looking like a movement now
all of a sudden 300+ servers lol

Re: Goodbye EA/DICE/BF2

POE2 is unbalanced ! the german side have much better guns ! and when u join a round u can never get on that side because every 1 wants to have then guns !

remind u of anything ?

USMC & MEC ?

every 1 allways wants to be USMC because they have better guns !

USMC guns suck badly....
The best guns have MEC and PLA

Bull, the guns are pretty much evenly matched, i've been playing all day, and its really not unbalanced in favor of the germans.. now the other way around..

Re: Goodbye EA/DICE/BF2

no USMC doens't just have better guns
and I don't really recall having difficulty getting onto USMC
unless MEC/PLA is losing when I joined the server

I think they are doing pretty well
the Germany/Ukraine mix is a bit like US/Iraq in DC

each side has their own advantages
and if they have this form now they'll probably go down that path
in 2.0 it could be a hugely popular mod

My money is on Desert conflict...at least up until Crysis, Quake Wars ET, and armed assult are released.

Yeah. Just remake Desert Combat and you're set!
But don't forget some of those goodies from DCR + DCX which BF2 somehow forgot to inherit.
But DCON so far only released a CTF patch...

Re: Goodbye EA/DICE/BF2

In real life the best guns are german manufactured so it does make sense. But the guns are just diffrent it depends on your fighting style

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't the original POE a BF:Vietnam Mod?? not 1942.....Regardless, the first one was a great mod....POE2 is already looking pretty good.

All this complaint about whether POE2 is as great as the hype is irrelavant. Once the novelty, as one poster put it, wears off the ones that really like the mod will still be there playing it and the rest will be off doing something else and not clogging up our servers....

I will still play BF2 Vanilla cuz I'm paying for a Ranked server but POE2 will be a great break from that.

Next up....Forgotten Hope 2 and Desert Conflict 2

Re: Goodbye EA/DICE/BF2

Dont worry, ranking/stats will destroy 50% of PoE2. Oh i can see it coming, stat-padding, getting kicked for having a gold medal/first place etc.
