Is this mod dead?

M3G@ · 12-12-2010, 10:22 PM

I use to play this mod and i remember when it had a descent amount of people playing. Now it's kinda dead.. Are they making a new version of this mod? Will the new mod use Source Engine 14?? I wana know cause this mod was cool but it died slowly when it got boring. I like it though and i think more people should know about this mod.

We're not dead yet. There are a few of us still working to improve the game and we'll come out with a new version in perhaps a month or so. Definetely spread the word around because most nights you can find a server or two to play on.

**squeek.** · 12-12-2010, 11:19 PM

No, it's not dead. As Carl said, we're working on releasing a patch pretty soon and have more patches planned down the line.

I have actually noticed a resurgence in the number of players for FF lately. There was a span very recently where you were hard pressed to find players during the day U.S. time. In the past few weeks I have notice an increase and can usually find pubs to play on with several players and once people notice an active server, it fills up fairly quickly.

This mod is far from dead and imo is way too good to let it die.

This is why updating the front page is not a bad thing to do.

**Elmo** · 12-13-2010, 09:30 AM

I started a post.. finishing it is always a problem!

moosh · 12-13-2010, 12:19 PM

It's certainly not.

Lynus · 12-13-2010, 12:40 PM

As long as Im alive, this mod will never die.

Nope not dead, It did take a long time for the mod to be shown on the mods section of the steam mods though....a very long time. I think that hurt it from the get go big time. Marketing something the proper way has an enormous role in it's success.

I try to get everyone I game with to come play the mod, but like TFC either you love it or you hate it. The game definitely has a skill set that requires much more than other games and this is the very reason why I enjoy this mod so much, I think I speak for a lot of people when I say that

Bridget · 01-21-2011, 11:55 PM

You might as well consider it dead. 2.42 has been in the works for like three months now, and it was announced because, whether they admit it or not, 2.5 was taking too long.

spambot2.1 · 01-22-2011, 03:21 AM

yes, pretty much. i have noticed less players lately. way less public activity.

moosh · 01-22-2011, 09:14 AM

If you play video games 24/7 then it's dead. If you actually have a life and get on momentarily to play some FF then it's not.

bokko · 01-22-2011, 11:06 AM

when ff will dead?

Greenmarine · 01-22-2011, 03:26 PM

*SIGH* Bridget I haven't seen you on any server in quite some time,

NeonLight · 01-22-2011, 03:41 PM

Bridget has been playing quite a bit recently.

Bridget · 01-22-2011, 07:04 PM

This is great. It's being implied right now that my opinion on the state of Fortress Forever is inconsiderable because, at the same time, I play the game too much (Moosh) and too little (Greenmarine). People like to imply that because I haven't been playing the game that much recently, that I can't assume it's broken. That would be like telling someone with a dead or dying automobile: "You can't suggest that car is dead or dying if you don't drive it that often." ignoring the fact that, perhaps, the driver doesn't drive the car that often because it is dead or dying. Do you understand? C'mon, it's fucking easy. Use your brains for once for something more than timing a concussion grenade.

spambot2.1 · 01-22-2011, 09:31 PM

yeah moosh's comparision was pretty stupid.

You jump too to many conclusions and frankly are very rude, not that you care (that's obvious) but oh well arguing with you is like rolling in the mud with a pig you both get dirty and the pig likes it. Not to imply you're a pig it's just a metaphor if you can get passed that.

For as much as Bridget can shit on his own posts sometimes, he does make good points, and is right about quite a few aspects of this game.
