The team is almost completely dissolved, the state has only a few people.” Galenkin blames the cost of developing a PC only shooter for a European audience, and a failed console publishing deal, for the collapse of the developer." Apperantly there have been reports of the Ukraine goverment going after some shady buisnesses and it'ts believed that his might be linked to that. The founder is one of the richest in Ukraine so there is a lot of speculation about the closure, but it is confirmed he closed it for personal reasons.

If you own SoC on Steam you get a small discount for all other Stalker products, just fyi. (Or maybe that has changed i dunno?)

Dat goat is illuminati? On topic: I played on the koth server today and it was nearly full, or maybe completely full i honestly didn't check. But i can confirm that the problem with Green servers slowly loosing players is that people tend to group into one team which then totally owns the map, and the other team can't do anything and leave in the process. This is an issue on ALL the Green servers, maybe not so much on Arena but on the others it is and a votescramble would probably work here. (Why is it even removed in the first place, and disabled after an admin enables it is strange??) I've tried to join the loosing team in the past but you can't do much since the team your in sucks big time, can't teamplay and your facing people who are all good and can do some basic teamwork at least, and here is where you'll loose many potential regulars. Shouldn't the goal be to get more regulars on the servers, especially now that many have left? There is also the issue of rarely seeing admins online anymore.

If you have a really good PC and more than 4GB of RAM i'd recommend getting Atmosfear by Cromm Cruac. Improves the bad texture of the sky, buildings and terrain and makes it look so much better. The atmosphere is also improved a lot since it fixes some issues with the weather. http://atmosfear.crommcruac.com/call-of-pripyat/ @xeim, you should totally try Call of Pripyat! It's as good as SoC imo.

Yes it does. The 2142 unique conquest version was Assault Lines. Now that they added Assault into BF3, why not make those smaller maps into Conquest Assault like Metro? Russia has all points and US has to take them all, fits better for the map.

Yeah, some stuff are missing like survival-mode which i hope will be fun. They already have a barricading system in the game. The map, Cabin, is enjoyable but very short and easy. And it only has a few selection of weapons which is why you should try out Chinatown and Broadway. Chinatown being my favorite because everything is there (plenty of good wepspawns/gunshop, lots of zombies) and it's a good looking map.

Here's a newly released beta verison of a mod called No More Room in Hell. It's a COOP Zombie mod (yes another) that is pretty fun. Even though it crashes and there's issues here and there it's fun when you got a team that can play COOP like you should. I'd recommend trying it out. http://www.moddb.com/mods/no-more-room-in-hell <---- Proper link.

Ofcourse, but you hear more of this from the EA side than most. Buying retail wouldn't fix the problem of using Origin anyway. DICE said that the maps will stay the same to how they used to be but with new stuff added. If you look from the other frames in the video they seem to have added points on the very low end of the island, possibly to make the whole island more played. Though i might have just forgotten Wake Islands layout since i last played it in 2142.

That's not me though, thank god. But yeah he should do that. But I've heard multiple stories of customer service being utter shit and Origin sucking in general. Think I'll wait for a Steam release if that ever happens. I was looking foward to playing a mp game that actually lasts longer then most mp games.

I lold.

Yeah, Harvest would be nice. I actually saw a thread about this very issue on SPUF some days ago, I'm hopening it got through otherwise I might actually send an email to someone @Valve who deals with this stuff, they tend to hear out. About people leaving, i noticed that nearly half leave when watchtower starts then come back next map to fill it upp again.

As i said, there's probably re-done koth-exclusive maps that work in arena like Viaduct and Lakeside. And lighthouse is also good. You could do mapvoting in a way that there has to be 3 rounds before the same map could be voted on again? For ex. Badlands -> Granary Can't pick Badlands again until you've played 2 more rounds.

Hello fellow Arena players. I was wondering how many of you would like to have some custom arena maps on the Mr.Green Arena Server? Could start with the basic custom maps like King of the Hill maps re-done to fit arena, which would include viaduct, lakeside and harvest (valve y u not do dis). Could possibly add some really good custom maps, even if there are few. Also a question for admins, what's the possibility of this happening? I asked Clavus but he didn't give me a clear answer, just a maybe, so could we get an more detailed respone on this now?

Bought a Wildfire last winter to check the whole Android thing out and man it's been painfull. It's ridicilously slow even with task killer and opening it takes about ~1min, even 2 at times. Recommend me another good Android phone, I like the system but i bought a really bad phone for it.

I think i gain reasnoble amounts of GC from playing Arena. I never said the amounts of GC i have bothers me. I don't mind if they increase the cost to 10.000 GC for 1 of the more stronger items it's just that the restriction makes them not so interesting anymore because they will be gone anyways.

Hi. There was this announcement about a new server on GMoD for a mod, i think it was called Ragnarök? This kind off questions the reason for making certain items in the Greenstore timed for TF2. I was told that there wasn't enough money so they had to make them timed, but since a new server was made do you guys need the timed restrictions for the Greenstore anymore? I would understand having the Fast uber timed because it's so damned powerful but i don't see the reason to have the others timed. The ones that are not restricted are rarely useful or just for fun (exception being Styptic and Flying Doktor).

Good luck, your gonna need it.
