BeSiege82 · 11-12-2007, 11:10 PM

Yep, they made a new mod for 2142- I hope it is good. Here is the address:

Check it out guys!!!! It looks like a beauty. !

We had it running on one of our 2142 servers when it first came out. The server stayed up for a couple of weeks but never seeded. If there is enough interest we could attempt another try at hosting a first strike night, similar to Frosty Friday.

Yes, a disappointment. Too many bugs and the like, was really looking forward to it, but was let down big time.

It's sad too because it was a long time coming and I'm sure quite a lot of effort from the devs, but, it's just so buggy and just isn't fun. Especially those space battles - seriously, no thank you...

Maybe in a couple more patches, when they hopefully get the bugs worked out, I'll get it. I have to say, when you load up SP and it CTD's, first time, you don't get too confident about the program.

BeSiege82 · 11-14-2007, 07:04 AM

dang, maybe by v.2 will be fixed and ready for us.

The mod does have some interesting modes of play and some very well thought out maps, I would play it again.

As would I. My main problem with it was the lack of TG support, to be honest. If we got an event one night to run it and had a decent showing, it might actually be a worthwhile mod. It just wasn't that fun showing up to other servers and playing with two-man mic-less squads. :/

**Lorax74** · 11-14-2007, 11:50 AM

I took a glance at the FS mod site today and it seems like they have some newer maps coming out (or are they out already?) and some nice plans for future maps and vehicles (e.g. AT-AT, can't wait for that one!).

We tried a First Strike night when the mod came out and, like you said, only had a handful of people show up. If enough interest is shown we can host another night of it.

Thanks for the info Lorax. Hopefully the new releases will put some life back into this mod and we can take another run at it.

I like 1st strike, but ATM there's not enough maps.

IMI-50AE · 11-14-2007, 03:01 PM

I'll show up if it works properly for me, but I'll probably wait until v.2 for bug fixes.

I'm a First Strike fan, and I had no idea there was a First Strike night planned before. I'd enjoy a FS event or night.

BeSiege82 · 11-15-2007, 11:01 PM

yes, are there any major air maps? Are there bombers and fighters or what because I'm interested now- I have not gone there yet.

**Razcsak** · 11-16-2007, 02:06 AM

None. The only aircraft-type fights consist of the space battles, which are, in my opinion, very weak. There's only so much you can do with the engine.
