FAQ
I crash on startup!
Make sure you enabled widescreen support in the settings.

How can I run the game in Windowed mode?
Same settings tab to enable widescreen support in the launcher, except tick the Windowed Mode tab.

Where is the Linux/Mac version?
Battlefield 2142 supports Windows, and Battlefield 2 supports Mac and Windows. Tweaking will be required if you plan on running it on Linux.

Where can I find the server?
In Battlefield 2142, press the Multiplay button, then Online, then Advanced, untick Ranked, then press Update List, then scroll down until you find Infinity Gamenight in the server list. You may need to untick Populated as well depending on how many people are connected.

Why is the loading so slow?
Both BF2 and BF2142 optimize the shaders on first load for maps when first launched and/or video settings are changed. This makes the first loads take long but subsequent loads are much quicker.

What are the classes in this game?
The classes available are Recon, Assault, Engineer and Support. The Recon class is a stealthy sniper class, the Assault is a mixture of a medic and rifleman, the Engineer is a demolitions and anti vehicle expert, while the Support is a defensive machinegunner. These classes can be modified with various equipment for situations as well as light and heavy armors sacrificing mobility for extra protection.

What are the gamemodes?
Conquest: Hold points around the map while reducing enemy tickets, win by having the enemy tickets reduce to zero.
Assault Lines: Same as Conquest, except one team starts holding all control points.
Titan: Capture control points to activate missile silos that damage the shields of the enemy's massive floating carrier. Destroy the enemy titan to win.

How do I heal?
As the Assault class, equip your medkit and either hold them or throw them on the ground. They will heal you and nearby teammates in either situation.

How do I revive teammates?
As Assault, customize your loadout so that you are carrying the defib. The server is configured to give you one automatically, however typically you will need to unlock the defib through a ranked server. When a teammate is down, just equip your defib

/radcorp/ best board on 8ch
Mark a fag
MK8 a suck

Friendly reminder that BF2 > BF2142
The fact that this prep thread is up so late is my fault, credit to OP for actually getting shit done.

Reminder:
PAC>(((EU)))

user pretty much everything > EU.

Jesus christ, friday already?

It just started 4 hour ago Satan.

Will be there, my niggers.

Depends where you live, I suppose. It's actually been two weeks since the last gamenight too, time goes fast when you're doing whatever it is Holla Forums does.

you mean fun

also will sticky at midnight EST

When this came out I hyped up some asian kid in my class to buy this on release promising that I would buy it too. He did. I still haven't to this day.

But fun is a buzzword user.
Sounds good, the thread is only up so early to give anons time to get the game downloaded (should take 1-2 hours for non-Australians).

Well it's legally free now so that doesn't matter.

You're a buzzword

...

I'm coming.

We should join another server in the meantime.

...

I've already been playing this for a while. I wish it didn't take so long to level up on ranked servers. The unlockable weapons are mostly sidegrades but the gadgets are really vital to playing some of the kits to their full potential.

There's a mod to unlock everything for people that wanted to play against bots but it was pretty big for anons to download on short notice.

get up here.

Well, see you lads next weekend.

there's some info in the support forum

Fixed it, thanks :^)

🆒

...

(checked)
I wouldn't be surprised at all if Mark is all alone when the time comes. I'm thinking if hosting Tron 2.0 next weekend, may as well see if it would viable sooner rather than later.

Nice. I feel like I missed put on a rad game by not playing BF2142 ever. How rad is it?

Titan is fucking sick but the classes are streamlined and the factions are boring, closest you'll get to a game like Planetside 1.

Do they have 64 player servers. I left sometime ago because all the servers dropped to 24.

unticked / ticked the right boxes, but am i the only idiot who can't find the server?

It has some great aesthetics and mostly the same gameplay formula as BF2 with some fun new modes like Titan. Combat often devolves into some pretty horrific explosive spam though, since every infantryman can carry 3 grenades and the recon class in particular has demopacks and claymores that are absolutely fucking obnoxious when spammed.

After installing the game it launches into a black screen and says it is not responding in task manager. Hopefully a reinstall fixes it.

I don't think the server is up yet.

It'll start in 10 hours.

I know the guy who runs the BF2 and BF2142 revival servers, he's stupidly wealthy and set up a bitcoin mining operation in his parents basement.

Yes, there is 64 player servers. Today's server will be 32 players to start off and then will be increased or decrease if need be.

Is he jewish or something?

Crashanon from the other thread we had on Dystopia. I know Battlefield worked on this machine before, but it crashes/freezes my Win7 now when I change the resolution (recently had an OS reinstall because somebody told me it would solve my hard latency issues).

I've tried playing it in compatibility mode, disabling display scaling on high DPI settings, which is said to fix games crashing on Win8.
I will now try to update my Nvidia driver and roast some marshmallows and then try to force the game to launch in windowed mode from the Revive launcher.
This is an issue on my end and it's keeping me from playing good vidya with all of you beautiful, beautiful faggots.

For some reason every PC I've ever had eventually dies on me within 5 years and I've been thinking it just has to with Windows being a buggy piece of shit, computers are a weird thing but something that helps me is push aside every bias and problem that has happened to me before and it do it like someone else would do it. That's as simple as I say it, your problem is probably spiritual/mental/metaphysical.

Don't meme at me mang.

Consider forcing windowed mode using DXWnd.

FYI to everyone, PlanetSide Forever (PlanetSide 1 server emulator) will be having a playtest tomorrow 20th May, in case of timezone misunderstandings on 12pm EST worldtimebuddy.com/est-to-gmt-converter timezones are a bitch
If you like PlanetSide, consider checking it out. While not everything is functional yet, infantry combat is mostly playable, although everything isn't allowed to be used because they're in alpha stage. Someone in the PlanetSide 2 thread claimed to also be a developer on the project.
Project update + info on playtest: psforever.net/forums/forum/announcements/news/280-project-update-19-planetside-14th-birthday-event-this-weekend
Guide: docs.google.com/document/d/1ZMx1NUylVZCXJNRyhkuVWT0eUKSVYu0JXsU-y3f93BY/edit

Forcing windowed mode through revive client sufficed, I also updated my Nvidia driver, reset launcher settings and installed Quicktime (just in case, it once fixed Bad Mojo not launching and is said to fix GTA:SA crashing from changing the resolution).
Works fine now in fullscreen in the resolution I set it to be before the crashing started. My guess is forcing it to launch in windowed mode made it overcome whatever it was that was crashing it.

dig it, thanks

I haven't played PlanetSide at all however the concept sounds very interesting. However using discord is making me slightly sick personally, however it doesn't appear that one has to use it in order to play rather it is mainly used for moderating (unless I'm wrong).

It's mostly just for organizing a game plus discussion between developers. You can use text chat in game.

Thanks for the clarification. So many things do and not enough hours in the day.

Post the IP fags, the server doesn't show even with "raked" unchecked.

Probably because it isn't up yet.

Terran Republic - Mobile Infantry
New Conglomerate - ((("Syrian rebels")))
Vanu - Tumblr with guns

Great, I've downloaded RO for nothing.
Ok I might join you guys if I can be a h-medic.

You can heal slut but you can't revive unless you unlock the defibrillator.

TR - Literal gommunist militarist authoritarian No-Wrongthink land with fast firing guns
NC - Ancapistan Space America with shotguns, gauss weaponry and BEEG boolit
VS - Space ayylmao cultists who can't stop being buffed to fuck by retarded devs in Planetside 2

I'm not going to read lore for an MMO because there are only 24 hours in a day, how are they communists.

fuck off

PS1 lore is different, user. PS2 takes PS1 lore and exaggerates it to comical proportions

>>>/cuckchan/

Mark needs to just start gassing niggers who think this place is cuckchan 2.0, fuck being liked by everyone

The funny thing is that the devs don´t even know their own lore. There are no animals on auraxis but they still have ambient sounds for frogs and birds on hossin and amerish for some reason.

PS1 was originally going to be a much different game, user. The ambient animal noises eventually were just used to make the continents feel alive

Is that you roof user?

Is 7pm UTC 8pm BST? I think the intent was 7pm GMT.

Not literally, but a lot of their influence and style is pretty commie. They're extremely militaristic and authoritarian, and presumably they have a state corporate system, just like the Nazis and the USSR did.


PS2 isn't a sequel, they called it a reimagining or something. The lore is mostly the same though, there was a wormhole that landed into some new galaxy, there was only one habitable planet found, Auraxis. There was an ancient alien race called the Vanu living there, and companies were the first to find them. The TR thought this was dangerous and said hey what the fuck don't touch that and confiscated it, that made corporations in the TR mad so they just took what they had and they fucked off to their own side of the planet and started their own country, the New Conglomerate. and the Vanu Sovereignty made a cult religion out of it and stole as much as possible to make their own country as well but it makes no sense IRL because who the fuck would think an alien race is some supernatural god.

The TR on earth was peaceful, democratic and transparent but in Auraxis they were a super commie/nazi mixture of authoritarian, very militaristic and probably socialist (though there's no confirmation, if I had to assume, it's state corporate). The NC is probably AnCapistan with a Jeffersonian style militia fighting for whatever they want and the Vanus are what the fuck this makes no sense.

also
Daybreak is a shit developer.

GMT=UTC.

True, but strictly speaking the UK is currently in BST (UTC+1).

Which BST is UTC. Last gamenight it was in EDT/BST but an user complained and wanted it in UTC/GMT instead.

Nazis and commies (USSR in specific) were literally the same thing, man. They were both state corporate authoritarian shitholes, "not real socialism" is a meme but both were state corporate systems, where the state owned the means of production and you got Gulaged/Camped if you didn't think correctly. Both also had private property. Hitler was a bit of an autist and didn't realize this because the USSR was a lot more Jewish controlled started, rather so he was blinded by the fact they were two of the same (Joe Stalin actually hated religion and Jews) while Nazis LARPed as Romans a lot more.
I'll stop here because boardkike gets asshurt whenever I speak about this.

Oh, understood. I'm still pretty sure OP meant 7pm BST (6pm UTC?) given that that's when we started last time. We'll find out soon enough.

EDT is UTC -4, so 3pm UTC is 7pm UTC. BST is UTC +1 so it should be 8pm BST.

No fuck it talk about it more, whats he gonna do sink a sticky and piss off more anons driving them to other Holla Forums derivatives

I realise it should be 8pm BST but we've always started at 7pm UK time previously, it's possible OP did not know BST was a thing. As I said we'll find out if he shows up (or worst case when we pass 7pm BST).

The American education system at work, ladies and gentlemen


I really hope this PSForever project pans out. They've made really good progress and I'd love to see it finished.

I'm not gonna bother, I'll probably wait for Smash Bros and then do it with that. Seems like a animosity towards the Switch right now since it's a new item and doesn't have that many exclusives. Also It was just a suggestion, no need to be edgy about it.

I'm not American. I'm actually in a country with some of the finest public schooling in Europe.
And I used literally figuratively, it's annoying to others but I keep doing it myself. On the economic side and how they dealt with state dissidents, it was very similar, however.

Why do you love that word so much? You use it in response to fucking everything like a redditor, "edgy" is the number 1 redditor word.

...

shut the fuck up faggot white boi

Why don't you make a gamenight on a WiiU instead? I don't have a wiiU or a switch but I'm sure you would find more people who own a wiiu

Whats wrong Mark,spending all those shekels on the switch was the reason infinity.moe disappeared?

Because he's a fat kike nintoddler that needs a reason to justify his 2 games machine.
The faggot bought Amiibo for Christ's sake.

Oh thank fuck, that place was a shithole.

People there were asspies. Good riddance to bad rubbish. In any case will porobably show up saturday night

When's Unreal Tournament 4 (a good game)?

Not really. Economically they were still pretty dissimilar. Nazi Germany did exert some control over what it considered to be essential industries but never at the same level as the USSR.


hey mark I wanted to say thank you for this

Host a server yourself mate. A big thing with this is the people doing it are willing to host. The HCE user was even willing to show others how to set up because he knew his connection was shit.

No, I bought NFC cards for 85 cents a pop and then scanned them with my phone and they work as amiibo.

Also aren't you a bit old to give a shit about console wars. This is an 18+ image board after all

any time famalam, sorry the camera was so shit though

Hello Nintendo Internet Defence Force

Yeah someone made a thread about that the other day, I was in full support of it. I'll need someone to make the WiiU lobbies though since I no longer have a WiiU.

It's not hard to host, I'd do it but the queue for new games is long as fuck. Whoevers in charge of this feel free to add it whenever there's a spot


jewish genes right there

...

I'll stick it in the schedule if I can remember. Please post a thread on /radcorp/ about being willing to host (I won't forget and we can talk hosting details).

Alternatively post in the scheduling thread, still the best way to make sure you get on the schedule is a thread on /radcorp/ saying 'I'm willing to host Unreal Tournament 4', you can have the slot after Eternal Silence if you want contingent on us working out a way for pirates to get on it.

Server can customize unlocks, and OP said he'll make defibs unlocked by default.

According to Steam, they would just need to own any of the games on this list:

store.steampowered.com/search/?category2=16

Ignore me, I misread your post and thought you were saying we'd need to find a pirate-friendly Eternal Silence install

I mean for UT4 user, we're going to do ES either way.

Unreal Tournament 4 is actually free: epicgames.com/unrealtournament/

I'd prefer UT2k4 though

Understood.

Hi Mark!

Ohio

How many people actually want to play ace of spades come june 30th?

Not really, take a look at the list. HCE user took advantage of this and ducked between two gamenights to play CE. it's not back to back, there are breaks in it

I see threads for AoS about once a week but if anons ITT/in-game aren't enthusiastic closer to the date it might get changed.

That was actually a large part of the reason we left the gaps.

nigga don't give me that gay shit i will play video games with you

s-sorry

I'll be on tonight although I'm probably gonna suck at the game

...

The way Battlefield 2 and 2142 do map sizes is based on playercounts. I set it to 16 initially just to keep the game dense even with low players, but as the night goes on I'll expand it to 32 up to 64 when needed.

my dong will expand up to 64

I dont know yet if I should make ut4 or 2k4. Whatever anons choose. I'll go plan it to /radcorp/

I do

There's a Holla Forums banner in there somewhere…

Might as well link to the thread here.

Is there a way to change the resolution? 1280x960 that's horrible in fullscreen
Also how do I get rid of the loud credits and intro?

Settings in the revive launcher, look for 'widescreen support'.
pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Battlefield_2142#Skip_intro_videos

That should do it.

Satan, did you even download the Revive launcher?

I thought we weren't going for another hour? Why doesn't the entire world just work on UTC already?

thanks

Why doesn't the entire world adopt the metric system?

SERVER DED

guess i'll come back later


I was just fucking around trying to get the hang of the game and people started joining.

Server back, disregard.

Is there any temporary email I can use to register for this bullshit?

Never mind, Nada mail worked.

Well, that map does not seem to work.

It's probably the game mode.

Host is fixing now. Blame EA.

And we're back, again.

More slots will need to be added to the server.

So there's a little bug right now with Titan mode, I think I know the fix to it though. When I apply the fix, I'll up the cap to 32. It filled up fast!

Post some screens. Or better yet - stream it, I'm bored out of my mind here on this XP laptop.

Just adding more player slots, please not to panic.

SERVER IS BACK, HOST FIXED TITAN MODE

How dead are we.

The big difference between them is that one wasn't a shithole and the nazis didn't ban degenerate literature, they had it in archives where you could read them but under supervision. I agree with your claim that he was autistic though but without that autism he wouldn't have the energy he had.

RIP Server 2017 - 2017

Won't bring the UK back…

How do you even kill the core without shooting it?

Missile silos continue to damage the Titan hull

is that it? is that the game night?

So I'm thinking that the server doesn't like to run a mixed titan/conquest mode, so I'm trying it only using conquest maps to see if it explodes again.

it just came back up

No, host just crashed the server. It's back now (press update servers if you can't see it).

Sure, Titan mode is best done sparingly anyway.

No such thing, pinko shit.

I hate making acccounts for shit. Will a 10 minutemail work for this?

See

Thanks, should have read thread but too lazy.

see you then lads

Please, I miss the Pilum. I'm not even sure my shots are hitting anything.

Game is good but the netcode is super shit meaning EU players are fucked. Sorry mates, but this is too unplayable for me, was fun for 20 minutes I guess.

Why does the server keep crashing after a new map starts?

Well, the server appears to crash after every map. That is not ideal. And BF2 > 2142, why did anons have to pick the inferior Battlefield?

Ohhhh the good old BF2 disconnect-every-match-thing-bug. Getting all nostalgic.

I think that's the server user.
Back up

2142 > BF2 tho

BFBC2 (and 'nam)>all

It ain't that bad. Still managed to get 40something kills.

There was a lot of this kind of fuckery in BF2 and PR.

Were you on the EU or PAC?

Is it back?

SERVER IS BACK


Same shit is happening here. I'm trying to identify the root cause of why it keeps doing this. Annoying as fuck.

Well fuck

Just got an error: "This server only allows players with unmodified content to join"

It's ok, it crashed anyway.

Have you got any modified content user?

Nope. I've been playing for the past 3 or so rounds without issue.

gg bois

Try it again now?

Nigger they can't even understanding fishing.

Yeah I was able to rejoin almost immediately. Not sure if that error might give you any hint regarding the crashes.

Host is looking into it.

...

I've migrated the server files to a clean install, will be restarting the server at the end of this round. Additional fixes include moving the titans and shorter, multiple rounds per map.

Server restarting to fix the end-of-map crash
Also to re-enable moving titans.

Thanks guy who jinxed it

:^)

How many players on serb? I'll be there in 15 minutes.

It's ok, those crashes should be fixed now.

See >>12593964

Remember to join squads to spawn on the leader/use droppods anons.

fugg :-DDD:-DD

Server should be unpassworded user. If we put one on it'll be infv.

i won't let me. I click and nothing happens

You have to be alive to do it.

Well, at least the Titans move now.

Server crashed, still trying to troubleshoot it. I can't find much documentation about this so my guess is your guess.

anything in the log?

The only thing known so far is that it crashes on round change, not map change (just that the two are often the same thing).

I doubt you'll fix it today. The PR devs have been fighting with that finicky shit since 0.6 if I remember correctly.

Logs are shit, they're just gameplay logs. They not as nice as Dystopia's logs were. I'll be glad to get this shit figured out and be able to play.


It's surely a strange bug. It happens on an organic round end, which doesn't make sense.

Due to the downtime, I'll restart the server in 16 player mode.

...

So, another potential solution is going to be attempted…
Server is back

...

Apparently the current fix is from a frenchmen so god only knows what it will do.

...

But not in English, of course, because using a language they can't understand is oppressing them.

Hey, is every class stuck with the default weapon?

Server is unranked and almost everyone has a new account, so, yeah.

Well the fix didn't work.

We're having a 30 minute break to fix the server
Everyone go fap to traps or whatever it is you do when you aren't playing vidya.


Well you've got 30 minutes to go shoot faggots in other servers if you really want to unlock something.

Blame the French.

Nothing to fix since this is how it works normally.

It normally crashes occasionally, not literally at the end of every round user. Unless it does, in which case we might have to reschedule tomorrow.

I've been playing on the Dethklok servers fairly regularly for the past ~2 weeks and I've never had a server crash. Maybe somebody should see if either they or the Revive guys have anything about this in their forums.

I'm having a look through the forums now and host is ingame trying some other ideas. No promises though.

The only fix for the crashing back in the day was to physically restart the server.

In BF2/PR and after about three days of up time, that is.

Isn't that related to BF2/2142's servers having a terrible issue with memory leaks or somesuch?

No idea, but that sounds about right.

Or it could be hosted in one of the off weekends as well.

We're still trying to fix it but just in case we'll maybe need a new thread for emergency discussion of alternatives. I can think of four, each with downsides:
1. Invade another server (no guarantee anons won't get kicked for having names like Hitler though, also we can't put a password on if the server gets full)
2. Reschdeule another game for Saturday (anons will not like having to download another game and having wasted time getting 2142, player numbers will suffer)
3. Cancel this week's gamenight, reschedule one for next week (mods and non-gamenight anons might not want us to shit up Holla Forums for another weekend with stickys, someone else might have wanted to use the off-weekend).
4. Same as three but don't schedule a replacement (anons miss out on a gamenight).

Also an option for UT4, of course, but I think it's popular enough for a full gamenight.

server down for anyone else?

Yes, we've had a whole bunch of technical issues. Hostfag is working on them but things are not going well…

I forgot:
5. Some other user could step up and try hosting 2142.

FUCK YOU UT4 RULES FUCKER
SUCK ME

Just burnt them in bonfires, that so much better isn't it.

I am confused as to what you mean user, I was suggesting we play UT4 in a month or two as one of the main gamenights.

...

I'd prefer to play 2004 inst-
maybe I should buy myself a somewhat decent used laptop for $50 to play toaster-friendly games with you guys…

Is the server up?

shit, its been a long week passions run hot. I am sorry.

It'd be a few months until UT anyway user.

Not a problem.

5 minutes, we have one last attempted solution then we'll give up.

Does the server run on wine or can you edit the stock linux server to work with the revive servers?

I can trying giving hosting a shot. However A) ping is probably going to be super shit, B) I would have to download the tool and try to get it working with a shit router that can't into port forwarding, finally C) I am likely to be very busy at least for the next few hours).

There is a BF2 Linux server the 2142 version is "coming soon".

Tron 2.0 is super toaster friendly.

No idea
I don't think so, they offer a BF2 Linux server but not a 2142 one. It looks like we might have fixed it anyway, I'm hoping anons are still willing to come ingame if it does work.

Protip: Next time publicly test your server before the game night. Just make a thread on a Tuesday or something, a few people will show up and help you work out the kinks.

this 2142 business seems pretty haphazard. I was looking for game night threads all week to no avail. shit I thought we were playing red orchestra until i saw this thread

We normally do user, this time scheduling user got distracted and forgot to organise a new host original host won't host anything that can't run on Linux until Thrusday evening so blame him.
Scheduling user is me.
Oops.

Server is back up and fixed
Go go go.

The user who was supposed to host didn't want to host a game that didn't work on linux, so he didn't host. That's when I got called as emergency backup.

SERVER IS LIVE AGAIN, GET IN HERE

what was the fix?

No idea.

I see. Guess it can't be helped.

i trust you're doing your best

Those are the best fixes.

...

The fix was a total purge of all server files, followed by purging all configuration files and then rebuilding the entire databases using files from a shady Frenchman.
Cycled 5 maps organically and it seemed to work fine. This is the first "true" match due to being a full length round.

8 players

and dead

fug

disregard that
Why don't we just raid an existing server?

Dethklok or Revive mixed?

It would go against our code of honor.
:>)

rip

Apparently hostfag restarted it to fix unlocks.
It wasn't a crash. Server is alive and well and hostfag is a gay.

I had to reset the server in order to fix an issue regarding the defibs. That one was on purpose. That should be the last one required to get the server going 100%.

SERVER IS ONLINE AGAIN

might as well be dead

...

Americans hate video games.

Aaaand it crashed again. Fug it.
Let's join Dethklok US.

Right, we'll take a break until tomorrow. It will be fixed by then or worst case we'll swap it to another game we've already done. Look out for the thread.

I'm up for that. Create a custom squad called 'faggots' or something, we can all join it if needed.

Until then get into Dethklok US

lets play halo again but on a server that works

So to clarify:
Infinity Gamenight server is back up tomorrow, we know the cause of the crash for sure now
In the meantime we're going to invade a server called Deathklok US, look for squads labelled 'faggot' and try joining them.

I'm on. Try to be on the cheeki breekis if possible for obvious reasons.

I don't know if the host is around for that but we can give it a shot, I'll explain in a bit what is making it crash.

...

Host here, going to do a minor change of plans.

Since it is in fact the rewards causing the crash, I am forced to disable all tier 1 equipment. Since it's an unranked server, you won't be able to earn any while playing on it. I'd suggest to do what says and join the ranked servers for now. By playing on those tonight, you can earn rewards to use on my server tomorrow such as the defib for Assault.

Apologies to anyone frustrated with the results of today's server, it's taken me almost 7 hours straight just to finally get it working. I'd rather put it up tomorrow when people are refreshed and ready for another chance at playing than try and force it and get people burnt out.

I put up a test server if anybody wants to give it a shot. Basically just the defaults.

dubl fug :-DD

Have you tried the password reset feature?

pretty sure I used a burner email because I signed up when it first appeared and was skeptical

Then just use a new email and make a new account user.

What's it called? I can try and connect. I think we know what the problem is now though anyway.

Infinity Gamenight *Test*

Good call.

It should only take a game or two to unlock the defib fags, I'm afraid that's how it's set up.

but I liked my name ;-;
There arent many variations of what I could have put and there's no time out so I'll continue to bruteforce

Part of being user is letting go of the past.

a liberty and a curse

Good news fags, the server called Infinity Gamenight Test is stable
It isn't too heavily populated but feel free to pop on, there's a few of us here.

That is, tonight is kinda-sorta uncancelled, we're definitely doing tomorrow.

Is the Tier-1 kit unlock working?

Surprisingly yes, at least for the round change. We haven't had a map change yet.

Sweet. I should be able to join and play with none shit kit.

omw

so jump on infinity gamenight test and call you a nigger got it

Dude who is running the test server: are you ITT? If so you might want to set it to run only 1 round a map tomorrow and, if you wouldn't mind, throw me some contact details (email, steam, tox, etc). If you don't want to post them ITT I can give you a throwaway email to send them to.

Though please do not restart the server just to change the number of rounds, there's anons in enjoying themselves right now.

You nigger.

And after all these crashes too, not bad anons.

21 now, all is well.
Did the server change map without crashing?

*teleports behind you*

...

Seems to have worked. Set rounds to 1.

It only does that when you change video settings user.

It's ok, turns out I had contact details anyway. Infinity gamenights are a professional affair, we are highly organised and elite etc etc. 21 dudes in now, can we beat Dystopia's record of 40 anons tomorrow? Tune in to find out.

Lovely. Please tell me the server didn't have to restart again without warning anons.

No, I just used the console.

is battlefield 2142 as good as i remember it?

Ok. If past gamenights are anything to go by Saturday should be almost twice as busy as Friday so maybe we will hit 64/64, that'd be the dream.

am I just not seeing the in game chat or am I retarded?

It's in the top-left corner of the screen and blends in with the background, fuck any designer who puts chat info at the top of the screen.

Depends on how good your memory is.
Try it, it's free. Mandalore (/ourguy/ in embed posted earlier) said it IS as good as he remembers it to be.

had fun but HOW THE FUCK DOES THE ROCKET LAUNCHER WORK

Maybe I'm remembering thinks wrong but I don't remember things being this inaccurate and finicky in BF2.

They aren't

It is a mystery to me as well. I think somebody told me how to use them in the first Revive thread, but I forget. All I remember from that thread is that you're supposed to fire LMGs in bursts to maintain accuracy and not waste all the ammo.

Put less tickets, holy shit.

Is it even possible to kill a gunship? The answer may surprise you.

did you try dicking it

someone call >>>/clang/

I told you I berieved in you guys!

Server is down for tonight. 4 conquest maps/6 rounds without a crash.

Aw, bummer. Right as I logged on.

See you guys tomorrow then.

We had at least 25/64 at one point. It should be pretty good tomorrow.

The PAC rockets are guided to where you're aiming iirc

Dunno about the EU launcher

working server config:
ghostbin.com/paste/r2uj6

Cool I just made it to the last game when I came back from work. See you guys in about 18 hours?

Is an account required to play this.

Unrelated question:
Does 8ch have an archive like 4plebs?

if Holla Forums made a FOSS LINUX remake of 2142 I would love to play it with you guys. also please make it run well on shit computers

Anyone online?

damn. just got home as was looking forward to playing with you guys

Server Up
It's called Infinity Gamenight Part 2. I'll try to make any settings changes without restarting.

...

Is it still up?

Going to make a new thread in a few minutes if there's a mod around to unsticky this one.

Is anyone wanting to start now or should we wait a few hours? It's only 10:45am in the USA right now. If there's people willing to go on we can start though.

So that's a 'consensus' to wait a few hours. 2-3 from now and we'll have a new thread and get back ingame.

This thread is dead, please use the new thread.

It is here
