well, that would depend on wether someone would be willing to invest as much time, blood, sweat and tears into such a site/project as Chuy did with bf2s.com...

I know it would suck if there wasnt a stat site like this, but I'm sure Chuy put alot of time, and money, and a whole lot of effort into this site...and I for one wouldn't hold it against him if he didn't do anything for 2142.  He's already done a kick ass job here.

From the looks of what's in 2142 I don't think there will need to be a site like this for 2142.

Although I used clantemplates....and...a really sweet awesome server host place...I did make our clan site...but hell no I couldn't make an equivilant of BF2s if I was paid 1 mil went through 16 years of HTML/Java, and just changed the target of stats finder.....really though I couldn't do it, but I think it'd be polite to not bitch about a new site (not that anyone is) unless you plan to help! lol....

Lol.

I'm not sure on the technicalities of this but isn't the stats system very similar for both games, in which case if Chuy did decide to make BF2142S or whatever wouldn't much of the foundations be done already.
Whoa... Can't believe these forums are still kicking.

Well, from what I have seen from the few screenshots that have it made past the NDA in the last couple of days, I believe EA has beefed up the ingame stats significantly to cater to the needs of the stats-hungry community. Maybe someone participating in the beta can confirm this.

So maybe there will be no need for a site like bf2s.com to be made for BF2142.

Then again, the sole remaining reason for an additional stats site for BF2142 could be to make the stats available outside of the game itself.

A good way to find out would be to check if a certain domain has been reserved already....

EDIT:

well, bf2142s.com, bf2142s.de and bf2142s.net are already registered and belong to someone. Wether those people/companies actually plan to do something with the domains or simply registered them for commercial purposes, remains to be seen.

Another interesting point is wether EA/Dice would actually support an external stats site for BF2142, by providing the necessary information about the stats feed and give their permission to use it.

Still cant look at other people's stats, from what I've seen. They ... "borrowed" ... my original graphs (time, etc) and put them in there too.

That, and comparison, would be the two reason to do a stat site on the web. (And personal leaderboards, again -- although, the inagme buddy list is a nice way of knowing who's online.)

Some for spite, and others I don't know about.

And this, my friends, is the big question. I've started my end of some data gathering, but haven't been told *anything* from the EA/DICE side about wether sites are going to get any kind of API or data feed access.

As I've seen quite a few topics recently concerning the stats feeds for 2142, I was wondering if you'd heard anything from EA so far Chuy?

Obviously they have beefed up the whole system since BF2, but as sites such as Bf2142tracker.com seem to be up and running I'm going out on a limb that they'll still be offering external feeds.


Edit: This is presuming that you would be willing to go ahead with it yourself again.

Hi chuy *waves*

Same here, but i actually do not need EA for this anymore. It is possible to read the stats the "old" way like in BF2, just they put in not one but two hurdles in it. I know for sure that i will provide on BF2142Fever.com some stats, but i hope that EA will again create an API like they did for BF2 stats sites.

So far i already can search users easy, but since there are no stats on the servers yet, i cant even test anything other than that

It would be cool if 2142 stats were laid out as good as BF2 is here at Bf2s.com.
I'm sure it would be allot of work but it would still be cool.

chuy, If you can... that would rock.
If you can't... no probs here.

I don't agree, as much as they improved their stats display, it's still not as good as what you can have online.

And as I recall EA even mentionned that you could see your stats on their site during the Demo (when they were cycling the maps between games). So I wouldn't be surprised if EA actually create their own stats site and get ADS revenu from it.

If it's the case, don't expect them to give away an API.

Both are showing stats.
Yes, it's not working 100%, but I like what bf2142tracker is doing so far

What surprises me about the in game stats browser is that they actually code into the game itself as opposed to just embedding a stats page (like the greet in hl2 server). So when you need to change your layout, etc, you don't need to release patch.

I get the feeling that EA might have regretted doing the bf2 stats feed - - or they realize how popular it was for bf2 and now want to see if the can get roi
