Finally played this on a couple of servers now, and to be honest it's not as dark as I would of like or expected.

Re: BF2 Nights Release

It seems the BF2 Nights team/developer made a big deal out of getting this mod out to the public in a certain way.. check out the interview with him, btw, over at bf2un.com. Since he actually made the mod, I'd say he has the right to do it in any way he sees fit and exclude anyone from the deal if he feels like it.

That being said, if there is no mention of exclusive hosting, on the release website(s), I don't think TBF2 kan be held liable (plus, BF2 Nights should be happy about the huge interest from people). TBF2 should have mentioned some more about the relationship between BF2 Nights and BF2UN, perhaps.

Who hosts it after the initial release though, doesn't really matter. The more the better, right?

Any other mod team would think that...

Re: BF2 Nights Release

i must say i never heard of this mod until I read it on totalbf2 yesterday.
I tried to download it as soon as it was released and got a whopping 11kb/s from their crappy server.
You should all be thankful to totalbf2 and their servers for hosting your mod. If they didn't then no-one would download it.
Waiting 3 hours to download a 3 map mini-mod???? are you crazy?

And you're jeopardising the release and further use of your mod just to get me over to some useless website for an "interview" with the modder. I don't think so!!!

Keep dreaming!! (and next time you release a mod, do it properly, where ppl can actually download it!!!)
Kudos to DMC for putting up with these idiots!

Re: BF2 Nights Release

So these are just the stock maps slightly modded to look like their at night?

No doubt the stomping grounds for 1001 snipers

Re: BF2 Nights Release

I wish it was more like the Night City Map from DC, with actual darkness and lights. From playing it, it seems to be just the normal maps with dark grey fog. The idea's got incredible potential though, I just hope it gets improved significantly, or done by somebody else.

Though, I may be a bit biased due to the fact that the creators are acting like assholes...

Re: BF2 Nights Release

Thanks NoB33r4u, that really is much appreciated mate.

Picture this, I log on to check for any news to post. I see the Nights mod has been released. I go straight to the Nights site (that's right - I didn't even know BF2UN had anything to do with them), see the download links and start downloading (I wanted to play! :P) but find it's coming in at around 11KB/sec. I thought "That sucks, imagine all the people trying to grab it right now - I should get it up on Filecloud to relieve that clear bandwidth strain the release servers are experiencing." I then spend another hour or two getting the file (including the server files) up on Filecloud (where we host our file library), post the news etc.

Then I come back and see all the rubbish posted up there ^. As well as the utter crap posted on the mod's site (stealing BF2UN's story? whaaat?!). Don't expect any more favors from me, BF2 Nights.

Anyway, morals of the story:
1 - Exclusive mod releases just do not work, and the mods mustn't get angry when they fail.
2 - If you're going to try an exclusive mod release, at least mention that somewhere on the mods site (!!!).
