Most popular mod?

Levi · 02-22-2008, 04:53 PM

Hey guys I haven't been on in a while and just finished building myself a nice new gaming pc.

So the questions are: Is BF2 or BF2142 (whatever year it is) more popular? I can't find my BF2 disk (think I left it at my moms 2 or 3 years ago) so I have to rebuy in either case.

Also for BF2 what is the most popular/realistic mod? Should I download both PoE and PR? Are they both equally popular with TGers?

PoE2 and PR both have a large amount of players here at TG, but I would say the PR server is more active (generally full). PR is the most realistic, but some people find it too realistic (no crosshairs, large maps, long respawn times). I reccomend trying them both, they are both good fun.

Try them both is the right answer; they're both great and they're both free. The thing is, everybody here is likely to be biased one way or the other, so you're best off just experimenting. The TG communities for both mods is strong; the PR server gets more traffic.

Poe2 but I'm bias

Khaerus is always so diplomatic...

POE!!! is more FUN.

I love PoE2!! I would suggest PR as well though. I keep trying PR but every time that I do I get in squad that is either going "lone wolf" style or is just not very forgiving to a n00b. Either one is not very fun and so I am just about giving up on PR.

Well if in 3 weeks you want to try it again, I will be back, and would be more than happy to have you in my squad

I have found out that if players don't get a good SL in PR when they start our, they lose interest for the game.

I will take you up on that. I really want to give it a fair shake before giving up on it.

Levi · 02-28-2008, 07:47 PM

I need alot of help. So if any of you guys are especially good at training people who want to excel at the game then please give me a shout.

Also does anyone else have a thrustmaster cougar that they use with BF2 and it's mods? I'm having trouble configuring mine.

PR - all the way.
And AIX for some fun...

fuzzhead · 03-04-2008, 05:02 AM

BF2 by far has more players than BF2142, nearly double...

check game monitor for population stats...

PR gets around 600 players a night, POE2 gets around 150 players a night, FH2 around 200 players a night.... those are the most popular.

try all the mods, theres unfortunately very few BF2 players who even realize mods EXIST!!!

PR, POE2, FH2, DCON, battleracer, pirates, etc etc

im still waiting on the lego mod

In regards to PR try it first and never look back is my opinion ... Whiskey Six did the community a great service by providing this post on 3 1 2008 ... just a few days after your post

I'm to dense to figure out how to link it something about a URL anyway I copied and pasted it.. It is located at BF2 Forum / Project Reality Mod / and is located under the Sticky area ... {How to get Started}

Well both POE and PR are very popular. PR is the most realistic though. I would give both of them a try if I were you.

+1

There's something to suit all play styles so pick the one that you enjoy the most. Or play 'em both even!
