Any demo's planned does anyone know? I tried a quick search earlier but couldnt find any info.

No demo as far as im aware, i dont think there was one for Ostfront either.

To everyone crashing, theyve rolled the patch back, should be fine now.

Can't believe they have failed so badly with this game in almost every way, I was looking forward to it so much

Ah, so I've just been playing on unranked servers. Cheers for posting the link, I hardly check their forums.

Since they've knackered the Ranking & killing the servers, the ironic thing is it's the 1st time I've seen the OcUK server in the browser.

Just had an 18mb patch come down from Steam.

Wonder what that's broken.

Seeing as I can't even do the 2nd firing mission in the basic training as the targets don't drop & hold SHIFT to steady breathing isn't working. LOL

Ah wondered why it was so dead, only me and orderoftheflame

Is this running tonight or are the servers down?

Gazanimal · 16 Sep 2011 at 21:41

It's running, but TWI have released a patch that makes the servers show as Unranked and the server admins have to apply to get the server Ranked.

The system takes approx 24 hours or more so currently there's absolutely loads of servers that were popular, now desolate due to having the status set to Unranked.

It's a ****er for sure.

Aye. Had some fun, til I got a C2D.

Should be much better once they've got it sorted and the servers fill up.

Might give it a miss tOnight then and grab an early night instead

Annoyingly, many of us have legitimate servers which have now been labelled as "unranked" which is a blatant.

Even more annoying when you have been trying to build up a well populated server only for it to goto **** and not be your fault :mad:

Even more annoying for me is that my GSP have ranked status by default and they still **** up.

Fire off and email enquiring about the IP status of it on their list, just for peace of mind? Probably by the time you get a reply it will be up and running but might be worth it?

Gazanimal · 16 Sep 2011 at 22:07

I've posted up on TWI forums that to counter this, they should make all servers Ranked for 2 weeks.

If within that 2 weeks the server admins/ RSP's haven't applied for their Ranked status then it loses it.

That way community servers that have been crapped on would get their players back.

Gimpymoo · 16 Sep 2011 at 23:08

Server backup and Ranked.

Not too happy with TW, could have handled it better but they were prompt to fix.

Gazanimal, any news on your application?
