Re: Point of Existence 2 v1.0.0 Released
I haven't played this yet, but I really hope servers are putting this mod on them. I can't stand downloading mods and not finding but a couple of servers and only about 15 people playing the game ; /
Is there alot of servers running it?Comment

Re: Point of Existence 2 v1.0.0 Released
A few over 500 servers running, player counts between 1500-3000.

My hat is off to you guys. I'll admit that I wasn't a fan of the BF42 version of the mod (die hard DC fan I guess) - but you guys definitely nailed it on this engine!
Job well done!
I was worried we'd be stuck with that BF2142 nonsense. Good to see the modding community pull through and deliver a good alternative.Comment

1. chopper physics that should've been left alone
2. grenade launcher that should've been changed back to the way it was pre-nerf
3. grass draw distance increased and/or more static objects to make up for the lack of grass draw distance.
4. ability to hit targets accurately when strafing without having to zoom (since you MUST be zoomed in to hit accurately in POE).Comment

Thanks to all that put anything into this great mod! I just wanted to say that we got a small 12 man server running POE2. We plan on upgrading to 24-32 man in the future, but you are more than welcome to stop by and play with <}US{>.

Re: Point of Existence 2 v1.0.0 Released
The first poe was not available for BF1942, it was deveolped on BFV. Its tought o compare any MOD to DC, even more so when the theme is totaly different, like POE. Its fun to have lots of MOPDs though, and play whatever your in the mood for at the time.Originally posted by SirCampalot
I only hope people support the other MODs from here on out as well. POE2 is a blast, lots of action, thats for sure.Comment

Re: Point of Existence 2 v1.0.0 Released
The perfect mod IMO would be:
1. DC chopper physics
2. Weapons that are accurate and powerful enough to hit targets nearby while straffing (without having to zoom in).
3. POE maps + DC urban maps
4. DC jets
5. POE models + skins
6. Pre-nerf grenade launcher
7. Dolphin diving removed
8. Pre-nerf C4 chucking
9. Opinions of realism (aka noobie) nutjobs ignored.
Sigh..unfortunately my dream won't ever be realized in a BF2 mod. I'm hoping Quake Wars comes close--judging by the videos I've seen of infantry combat, it is fast paced and straffing + firing lands on targets perfectly without having to use zoom. POE2 is a lot of fun but the infantry combat reminds me of GRAW for XB360 more than it does a fast paced game that doesn't require you to be zoomed in all the time to hit a target accurately.Comment

Re: Point of Existence 2 v1.0.0 Released
To call this a mod, doesn't do it justice.
To me, it's the way BF2 was meant to be played. It you haven't played this, then you NEED to give this a try. It kicks ***.
Highlights:-
No indiscriminate commander artillery! You no longer have to pray when capping a flag!
No commander scans or UAV's (which were naff).
The gameplay is actually BALANCED. Yes, there is a true rock/paper/scissors stone approach. Sry Flyboys, but you ain't gonna get your usual 50-1 kill ratios.... Also tanks are tough at the front, but very vulenerble at the back.
Infrantry combat just feels "right". The weapons actually feel deadly when aimed and not like some sort of pea-shooter.
Maps are varied and very well designed. The IO maps create some really intense firefights.
I could go on and on......
CONGRATS POE team on a very professional and solid first release. Remember people, this is only going to get better (unlike vanilla which seems to ahve gone from bad to worse!)Comment

More balanced. lol. I will remain the voice of sanity in the smooch fest on POE. There has to be at least one voice of dissent, lol (theres actually plenty)Originally posted by TommieToeTo call this a mod, doesn't do it justice.

This is like putting a different paint job on a mustang, and calling it a Ferrari.
