just a idea.... (dont know if its possible) but i used to go on a network for flight sims, they had afew diff servers all connected to one so they could allow all the players (there was 1,000 conected at one time!!!)

is that possible for a bf2 server? connect afew together so u could run the 64 vs 64 map....

just thot i had

What kind of map would you get, urban, or wide open space.

Did you guys played Joined Operations: Typhoon Rising? There were servers were 150 (75 vs. 75) people were, but the map sizes were enormous, like 2x Zatar Wetlands 64 slots.

This is a good idea in thought, but it is not realistic. THe market for soemthing like this would be very small because 1) The server requirements would be so high that very few poeple/clans/etc. would be even able to afford the hardware to host such a game, 2) Even the requirements for the players' systems would be high because they would not have to draw many more objects as they come into view, and 3) I don't see a profit incentive for EA.

With such a small maket, EA would have to spend a lot of development time for something with no realistic expectation of a resonable profit. The game is already a success w/o 64 vs 64, and they are already planning the mini packs (or whatever they are calling them, that they are going to charge for (i.e. they will make money). As someone who works in the software industry (I manage testing for a large financial application) I know that the changes you are proposing are not minor and would require many hours of coding and testing. I think your best bet is to see if you can find someone who can mod the game to support 128 players - of course it would not be ranked.

i didnt think Broken was wanting any attachments to EA, indipendance is the best way forward

like a mod but on linkd servers so everyone's systems (and the servers) could handle it was what i thot it would be like

1)
i think he was going for ea to host the games on their own servers...
(also the thing with the rq. to play on the server .. age, money)
and only a few servers hosted by ea!
only for the nerds/freaks

2)
thats true... but this would also be a point for bhd down maps... u can look only down the street around you houses - walls... no wide fiels with many many obejcts (like karkand but much much more easy drawed houses)

3)
popularity would be increased - everyone is searching for big games (imo)
take 5$ or € for each slot a month - i would pay it... makes 640 a month (not much - but it will be enought to pay the costs)

Yes you are very right, the market for this is very small. That is why im going to do. Well atlead try to. But I need donations to try to get this going. I will get back to everyone on the donations part.

Ok dude how is that racist.

Racism refers to beliefs, practices, and institutions that discriminate against people based on their perceived or ascribed "race". Primarily, it refers to an assumption that the human species can meaningfully be divided into races, together with hostility to people of certain races or a belief, conscious or unconscious, that people of different races differ in value. Some people whose thinking about others uses racial categories believe that different races can be placed on a ranked, hierarchical scale.

If you want to know more about racism please go here

But, that is besides that point. I am making the rules as i go. But if anyone has good rules, please let me know.

for sure...
i wanns tell a funny thing happend 1 week ago...
i know, doesnt sound so funny - but it was - try to imagin what happen in that moment.

64map - kubra dam
heavy fighting a the first bridge, i was on the us team.

so - tanks, apc, the bradley and some guys firing over the bridge holding the line.

the commander gives unreachable commands on and on - not noticing that we were pinned out.

as suddenly - the teamspeak came up: this is your commander - why dont you are following my orders??? Do it!

suddenly all players on the my side of the bridge stopped doing whatever they did - and we got kickd our asses - and the chatter said...
#lol
#wtf?
#looool
#omg
#rofl
#arghhh
#not really
#lol
#§§$&"$&!!$!

so what happend?

imagin the commander had a voice that sounds like your 4 year old brother - and is pretty close to a 2 year girls voice

lol?

calm down - noone is destroying ur great post!

it has to do with the point that you will put an age limitation on the server of 18+
the question was why is it 18+? this would be racistic...

so i pointed out why sometimes the kids suck
