Project Reality Forums

There is not enough people playing PR in Australia or world wide. same thing should be done. why don't we all pitch in and post idea's to make this mod more atractive to those lost souls playing BF2 vinilla so thay will come to PR the promised land. this post is not to create arguements or what not i made it for creative idea's. Iv been trying for almost a month trying to get my clan buddys in -=UF=- to come to PR but there not budging no new blood there .

As our developers have build it, they will come, one by one. We certainly don't need a horde of vBF2 cry-babies now do we? Quality over quantity Rhys. Every round I meet at least one new player, as I always ask my squad members if anyone is new to PR and if they might need any pointers.

Here's a sheep-shed full of Aussie PR players > http://games.internode.on.net/forums/vi ... 7fbf07e677

I never heard a good Australian voice over voip. Kind of miss that. And exactly we don't need babies, if you want to recruit, find mature members belonging to clans.

Hack all the stats sites.


PS: Not actually recommended.

Did happen, some folks gave themselves 1 000 000 global Bf2 points, so they wouldn't have to play so much to get all the 1337 sp3c 0p cookie badges..

Well, so go you after to get more australian players. I created one topic in a very populated forum here in my coutry (http://forum.jogos.uol.com.br/viewtopic.php?t=1294881) and I talked to my friends and asked them to talk about to their friends. Today, with help from friends we have 2 servers and one is almost always full.

Do the same ! =)

390 people playing right now. Keep in mind the game we're making is never going to appeal to an enormous audience.

Also keep in mind that Wednesday is the lowest day of the week for player numbers.

word of mouth is one of the best ways to reach new players, so try attracting some more players your self

The problem isn't attracting new players, the problem is keeping them.

People become bored with the same maps, same bugs, same mechanics. The updates are so far apart that it allows too many people to leave the mod for something else, and then it's hard to get them back.

imo it's better to release smaller updates more often than larger updates spaced further apart. I'm sure there are plenty of things that could have been updated on the server side that don't require downloads for players. Even small download client updates are better than large updates that are only released twice a year. The releases themselves are free advertising for new players and older players who want to check out the changes.

Perhaps easy to say and not easy to do, but from a "keeping players interested" point of view, it's a noteworthy option.

ehhhh wolfe, we are the best mod for short release dates. We are without a dout the mod that releases the most versions in the shortest peroid of time in between them. Also we have around 20maps in every release, thats far more than vBF2 and most other mods. not saying we cant cut our release times down and try to improve on these areas I'm just saying we are already at a very high standard in comparison to the other mods out there.

the hardeset bit with keeping the players for PR is not the fact about the above points you have made. The fact is that PR dose not appeal to that many players. Most players will not like pr cos of its long spawn times and all thous things.

Also it would be a big point to note we are the most popular mod for BF2 at this time by a long way.

the hardest thing we are having to fight against to get players even trying the mod(s) is the BF2 ranking system, without a dout.

was speaking from a pure "keeping existing players interest" point of view and wasn't trying to comment on the difficulty of frequent updates or its comparative nature to other mods. Many of us are eager to see some of the changes (especially to slow down the pace a bit) that are waiting in the wings. This isn't being ungrateful or impatient, but rather it's a testament to the quality and popularity of the mod.

Hail Brothers @ Arms.

I am looking into the mod, I am not "NOOB" to BF2, been playing since FEb, just not crazy active, well until recently.

I go by dballen1 on the main BF2 servers, I caught wind of this mod and wanted to check it out. Downloading @ the time of posting this.

I heard about this mod on XtremeSystems.org where I am an active member.

The CTX is the Clan from my forum though I am not a CTX.

I am reading over the forum here before I install and try to run the mod.
I had headaches just getting the game to run, with Key validation issues. (yes I have a legal copy of the game) basically told the woman I was on the phone with from EA to go screw herself, cause she was no help............

anyway. I am anxious to give thsi a shot as I have issues with a few things in the standard game as is...........like M95 NOT blowign a body to pieces................I mean like WTF!.............so............

Hello and good day.

welcome

best info you will find out about the mod etc will be from here: http://guide.realitymod.com/

but the M95 still dont blow body parts of ppl, hard coded

Atract more users

ps. PLEASE DONT BAN ME AGAIN ITS ONLY A JOKE

Only a joke huh? Well, not everyone sees it that way.

Start a rumor that besides the sniper pickups on Kashan you can also find the secret oasis with a bar and bikini babes serving cold beer. BUT for it to materialize you must be with at least 4 squad members who all use voip.

Say Hi to the fellow at the end of the bar - his name is Eggman ask him to hurry home soon, he's missed.. (sorry cross topic post but couldn't resist)

I found out today, that on the US AAA emplacemnt, it says "Die Hard" on the inside!

i personaly got into PR since i watched a vid about it on youtube and got interested in all the new stuff. like destructable buildings smoke granade luancher and alot more.
so i guess one way of bringing in some new players is to have more videos of PR in youtube so that when a guy is searching for "bf2 movies" for example, would find a vid about PR. just like i did!!

yeah and where not gona keep players in PR with Punkbuster at the moment i mean having pb downloading during game play is crazy it lag the game up. And punkbuster has to down load to much data like GB of it it crazy. we can thank all those hackers out there for this problem i realy don't know why thay hack is it fun for them? how is it fun having every one hate you and want to torcher you to death.
