Hello,

As many people know, bf2 is a dieing game. The war scene has left, all that is left are public servers. That wasn't a problem for the leftover players. But, most of them have quit... Or got bored. I belong to the bored group. So on August 3 I decided to learn something new, which could make the game fun again for a couple of months. The thing is, as the title already gives away, driving tanks. The basics where not new for me, cause I was forced to bail near armor plenty of times, but for the first time, I took the time to drive them... Fraps was running so I could take a look at my actions later to improve my skill faster. The best thing was: Since it was on a public server, the enemy's would hardly ever do a good attack on anyone, including myself. Now, to get to the point: I decided to make a tank whore movie, probably it won't be done till mid September (BMX-ing is more fun, and I'm going on vacation for a week).

Most dutch people I know don't like techno (althought most of them did like that song ), for the music I want to hear I actualy listen to a FRENCH radio station.

ajax = amsterdam's football team

A common insult to ajax (fans) is "kanker jood", or "cancer jew", cancer being a common sweard word in holland.

PSV is Eindhoven's team, and one of the best overall.

The only reason that there are not as many servers as there used to be, is because, Battlefield 2142 came out, the game that was supposed to take Battlefield 2's place, but EA were wrong and so were those that closed their servers down and opened up a 2142 server instead. Dont get me wrong both games are good, but my preferences are stuck on BF2, i feel as though there is more involvement in the game, more techniques in learning how to kill a mutherfucker. DIE'ING game, not untill they release the new and improved Battlefield 3, then and only then the game will get dumped by its Avid followers.

bf2 isnt a dying game, call of duty 1 is a dying game. With about 100 servers running, 90 of them in europe and 8 passworded, its hard to find a good game.

Thanks for the comments so far

Without a war scene, a game can be called "dieing". It's less then 10% of what it was 5 months ago.... There are some games that only have 200-400 server running, but >70% of the people that play it are having at least 1 war per week. Those people pay for the public servers (In bf2 the people who want a ban-stick do ). But since the war scene has died out, the skill on public servers has gone down, as you can see in the trailer.

I liked it that there where no planes trying to attack me. A few rounds after that (in a different server) a F18 kept attacking me, but it took him 5 min before he killed me (His lack of skill). He even rammed a crane he was flying towards in a straight line for 300 meters while trying to attack me...

Another thing: Its a frag movie, I'm not putting in bad stuff, duh

Its generally because football fanatics in our country are complete retards and can't comprehend the fact that there are more than one football club per country. Therefore if you do not like the same club as they do you will be called a ''cancer jew'' to quote the exact words.

Btw, on the dying part he's kinda right. It nearly 6 months the amount of teams in Clanbase dropped from 120 to nearly 60 ( 8 v 8 conquest EU, that is). vWars are declining and the few that are left are infantry wars. Which are ghey.

I'm just killing the time that is between the now and the release of F:FOW (No matter if the game will suck or own, that's the next game I'm putting my time in).

A friend of mine is making a movie for me with lots of footage, including how cheating sucks. (Don't whine about it, someone bought it for me after I got banned through punksbusted global ban-list had me on it for a fcking bug...) Someone else is also making a movie with a bit of my footage in it

@Jay, there are some discussions about starting to war again... The biggest 'problem' is an incomplete chopper crew (Al thought there are some people way above med). About the 1vs1: Sure, but I haven't fought any decently skilled people in chopper vs chopper for over 2 months (one in that time, but that does not count).

Probably, or less then 1 hour per week average, only for the fun of playing with certain people (What times are you online? I'm usualy outdoors between when I wake up and 22:00 GMT+01)

@stats-whiner:

Get over it. No-one gives a shit about it, I got tons of accounts, and I wanted one that could become commander whenever I'm the first to press apply.
It does not place me higher in rankings, it does not hurt you in any way, so please, just die in a car crash or something like that (The dieing part). Besides its good not to hear "With that rank you can't be so good!" 1 in 3 rounds you play. Not to mention the cheat accusations dropped from disturbing to hardly noticeable. Now, you give me one good reason why the cheat-age of a rank is bad (NO, I said _GOOD_ before reason).

______

The actual movie will take longer then expected. Good footage in tanks is rare for me, even if I drive that thing for rounds. Most of the time the people kill themself before I get the chance, or my team does it for me, or they kill me.
