As we all know, everyone comes back for a day or two, or more, every summer or thereabouts. It's been looking like a ghost town for the last few days, and Shab stacking with Skaffa and rolc all the time isn't helping the matter. I sat in the launcher for ~2 hours in a 3v3 with Shab, Skaffa, and chuggawhatevahisnameis, the new guy playing Axis. I'm waiting in this game for two hours as the Brits, with rolc, RollingVetster, and Area (I think) all on their allied companies, just sitting there, and nobody joined the game. Heck, Shab and company were playing OMG mod while waiting for the game to fill.

Am I to assume the mod is dead and gone until next summer rolls around?

If not, then I wipe, then someone gets something they shouldn't, then it gets abused, then the shit hits the fan and then I ban shab.

I think scotz might have accidentally broken a few things. I think that is probably more that PPl are tired of ab and doctrines not working properly.


Like all coders in eir they probably just had something come up. Let's just hope he will comeback and not pull a eirmod

The cause of the problem is also the system what makes EIR to EIR!
This game does dying since many years because of the ranking and the veterans.
Almost everyone wants to play as WTJ (winner-team-joiner) and not risk anything.
Everyone who does not make this is denounced as a loser.
For this reason, even beginners will be expelled to.

If I had a nickel for every time one of these threads started I could stop working.

EIR died when fldash stopped development.

Fucking bone head - the mod continued for almost 5 years after fldash left.

It is not as dead as you guys are making it out to be. I mean, we are not getting the 20 people in launcher from July, but, 2v2s are not hard to find, especially if you are just interested in playing and not winning.

AB and certain axis t4's are really killing the moods of some people though, understandably.

I feel like if Smokaz and Shab met up it would be a 50/50 tossup to see which one of them robbed the other first.

nefring the PE g43 supress and giving the ally sprint and fire up in vet 0 was a bad idea

and ab is definetly causing a big problem coz its freaking op with extra PENETRATION and extra range and airborne infantry seems stronger then other untis as well.

How wrong you are........

Scotz has been in the hospital, that is why you have seen no activity.

We are planning an announcement very shortly. We intend to wipe all companies, disable doctrines, reevaluate base unit balance, and use that time to code the new doctrines.

I suspect that will be happening next week, but I am waiting word from Scotz as to when he feels up to making it happen.

A company wipe and unit revaluation is good. What needs to be done as well is to prevent stacking. We all know why it causes a lot of grief, nobody wants to lose.

Automatch is needed to be added. Planning, designing and implementing one might be out of this community's reach though.

nice to hear this thing.

I got a question for you tank. What do you mean by desabling doctrines and coding in while they are disabled? Does that means we will not be able get doctrine's units such as rangers, AB, tiger, JP, 88s and lost goes on. Do i get it right it will be pure vanila stuff vs pure vanila stuff game play?

Oh hey look, another doomsayer post.

'Aint a good summer unless at least one of these pop up.

You weren't even around before EIRR. You don't even understand what it is that died.

I was around before EiRR, and honestly, it wasn't all that. It was just a more brightly coloured version of gimmicks vs gimmicks that we have now. About the only real unique things that went was constant repairs (Which were pretty broken - like everything else around that time) and the ability to get more and more resources for a company over time (Which was actually kinda ok, but not worth sob stories over).

Doom blobs and repair blobs with the occasional doom fort sprinkled in.

Also fuck old EiR for one reason in particular. Subversion. Fuck that all the way to the bottom layer of hell.

I mean I know Obama was the first one in EiR to get a card. and tbfh the Race card is pretty OP. but Romney has the K.K.K., those guys seem to camo anywhere. So OP units from both sides.
At the end of the day, however, stormtroopers finally got the anal invasion with a cactus they have richly deserved for years.

I mean, this wasn't a doomsday post, I'm not implying that the mod is dead-dead. I just mean, is it worth my time to PLAN on having games when I get home from work, or has the population 'dipped' to the tiny trickle of players that we see in the off-season(s).
