    Steam Integration Tools Release

    Hi, I apologize if this is the wrong section to post this in, it has been a long time since I posted here. In the last few months I have been working on research related to Steamworks API and how to integrate it into JKA. Well, today I have something to share: the JA Steam Integration Tools...

    Make classic dotf playable again

    Sorry, but in my experience it is just straight-up not true that (all of) the developers are capable of handling criticism in any capacity, or able to respond appropriately when someone delivers them even a slight ego hit. On October 19th 2017, someone highlighted me on the Discord saying "wow...

    Make classic dotf playable again

    Don't know why I'm here but I feel the need to chip in considering I don't really play this game anymore and I haven't even played new DOTF but this stuff has been talked about a lot in the discord servers that I view memes on is important. Lots of people talking past each other (not even going...

    Pole on server side modifications

    I have no idea what he's talking about, because if you look at SteamCharts the numbers are in fact, substantially lower and closer to that 150-200 estimate that other people have said. Even if you use 60 as a sample size, and 500 unique people play MB2 in a month (I'm being extremely generous...

    Pole on server side modifications

    "Stronger measures"? That was rather mindless speculation on my part, thanks to @Caelum and @Puppytine for clearing that up. That...actually makes complete sense, I hadn't considered that the person who made that website modified the incoming list. But definitely possible. Modifying the hosts...

    Pole on server side modifications

    Honest to goodness question - why not allow the ability to change the master server that the game routes to, on the client? Either officially sanctioned by the developers or put into a modified client by a third party person. Most servers in existence already post their status to...

    Making New Content is Pointless Now

    I agree that they are bad for the game in general, but I disagree with the solution of forcing server hosts to run RTV.

    Making New Content is Pointless Now

    I'd just like to point out for the sake of argument that AOD New Player Haven has been consistently >10 players all day, and hasn't been on DOTF. At noon Eastern US time, it was on BOC,with 12/32 players. At 4pm Eastern US time, it was on BOC, with 16/32 players. Now, at 9:30 PM, it is on...

    Making New Content is Pointless Now

    Here's the thing though, and I believe I've said it before already, but feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. I think you're right on all of these points (the ones I've quoted). But people are still going to play what they want to play. Taking away people's options to play DOTF or Deathstar...

    Making New Content is Pointless Now

    Well.... (quotes from the MB2 official discord server) No, if I'm paying to have a server hosted, I want the maps that I or my clan want to play, and not what some random group of q3fill botters or trolling hooligans want to play. If I advertise a server as being 24/7 Jabba, then it should be...

    Making New Content is Pointless Now

    OK, let's just ignore the fact that you're just on the other side and calling the other people garbage, which is just the same as what you claim the other side is doing, and let's also ignore the fact that there are RTV servers with pretty normal player counts for a moment. If everyone is...

    Making New Content is Pointless Now

    If the majority of NA people wanted to play on RTV, they would. As Motoko said, tR has a RTV server as well as a Deathstar server. Players always had the choice to go on RTV servers, they just don't. There was always that power for the players to use, they just don't use it, and instead complain...

    Making New Content is Pointless Now

    Mate, see it from the outside perspective. Some of these servers have been running for years on the same settings, and you're coming along telling them that the way they play the game is shit and that you don't like it. Okay? Don't like it, don't play on those servers. There's plenty of other...

    Making New Content is Pointless Now

    No, Motoko is right. The reason why people play on the 24/7 servers is because they're popular. They're popular because they have people playing on them. That's pretty much all that goes into it. As someone who only plays from time to time, this is the single deciding factor for me. Does it have...

    Launcher Updates and Fixes

    Agree with all except this point. Moving around files outside the scope of MB2's directory is akin to a virus to me. I should not have to go hunting around for files because MB2's launcher has deemed them to be "foreign." I think instead it should pop up a dialogue box that says "You have some...

    So lets talk about player retention in this mod...

    Yeah. Just my two cents here, but this is probably the more important thing to focus on, is keeping the long term veterans here. If people have a reason to stay for years and years, then they will have a reason to stay after an influx of players.

    How do I SBD??

    You're not using Cortosis, which is why you're probably sucking. SBD is pretty much the best counter against Jedi. Go with Battery 3 and Firepower 2. Try to get in close. If they get too close, slap them to the ground. If they slash, shoot them in the face. There's pretty much nothing they can...

    Launcher Updates and Fixes

    I do think that the launcher is great for people who aren't tech-savvy, but at the same time I don't think we (players) should be limited to using a technically inferior option. The launcher downloads slowly and unreliably. I'll invoke the Nexus Mod Manager example here again. On the Nexus Mods...
