Lots of potential, needs some love though.

Sadly losing interest as for me it becomes unplayable on dedi after some hrs. Planes start to to hover in air, ai can't walk 2 ft than server stops respondin all together. this is a normal day in the life for IF after 3-5 hrs running.

Not sure what server you are on or running but my dedi has been up continously since the game came out. I also run CTI or DasDans conqueor maps as well. No crashes, no hangups, no hiccups. I also use the latest patch and all this is run off an i5-2400 win7 64 bit basic computer that sits 2 feet in front of me. It also has a dedi arma2 CO as we speak for the last 4wks no crashes etc..

Love the game but it does have it's problems, like anything. Looking forward to more content. If you loved Panzer Elite, Steel Fury '42 and T34 vs Tiger then this is defintely the game for you.

Yeah it's definatly a fun game/sim just frustrating, set to persistant atm an may start off the day an than come back later like over time all the events vehicles everything collected over time does the server in. I try to restrict ping to max of 200ms. Hopefully next patch will resolve some of this as it does have alot of potential. The Starzow map is absolutly amazing if not stunning lookin at 3000-4000 view distance.

I neither see or hear enthusiasm in forum about this game...
Maybe it's already dead??

I bought it but quickly abandoned in SP mode because the AI ​​is really dumb.
Online i prefer Red Orchestra 2

Maybe it's already dead??

Why maybe? It is, actually.

Umm check out the official iron front forums, lots of activity over there.

MP is certainly dead. 20 people max worldwide playing on 5 servers most of which are listen servers.

The activity on the official forum is just a few people praying for a miracle the game gets patched and revived.
other then Panzer Baron throwing them a tiny bone once in a blue moon theres not much else going on over there.

It's pretty sad because this game had so much potential, the vehicles are great, the maps are awesome, units are good
the animations are pretty kick ass but they dropped the ball releasing this game so many times it's not funny.

A sound mod is not going to revive this game.

So any positive suggestions besides keeping complaining about your feeling of death?

So any positive suggestions besides keeping complaining about your feeling of death?

Sure

- Fix the game, the last patch appears to have caused even more problems. [CTD...Freezing..etc]
- Stop ignoring the official forum
- Post some reasonably detailed information about whats going on with the patch. If there even is one coming.
- Have a chat with Bohemia about the modding issue [If checking/Approving mods is a requirement. Which I personaly don't believe it is. Didn't notice it in the contract.....uh huh]

Once all the issues with the game have been fixed contact the reviewers that gave it negative reviews and have them check it out again and do an updated review
and advertise the f$#% out of it with proper videos on Youtube, not those short staged ones with more WW2 film footage then game footage and ditch the post processing in whatever video editor they used.


All the above and more positive suggestions have been suggested a dozen or more times on the official forum with no reply other then the people who are just doing exactly the same thing that happened on the R02 and Dragon Rising forums
the common theme being..... it's the customers fault the game failed, not the developers.


If they don't do any of the things being suggested in the official forum then you guys will be doing nothing then clinging on to a decaying corpse.....



The fact that you can count the number of players on MP with 2 hands is proof enough... the game is pretty much dead right now with no signs of ever being revived.
