Number of players online under modes

Post » Sun Nov 15, 2009 7:08 pm

Does anyone else think it'd be good to be able to see how many players are playing online for each game mode and type? I'd really like to see just how dead or alive they all are and the game in general. I really hope this game doesn't go the way medal of honor did. Ie 0-4 players in all the game modes except 1 or 2 which have probably 1,000 total world wide playing.

I'd definitely like to see how many players are online in that mode, it would stop me waiting 10mins for a game in Classic mode before realising that nobody is playing.

I would love to see this put in. We'll be able to see what games are dead and what games are not dead.

I wonder though if they'll refuse to do it if their game is actually underpopulated. They may feel that it would cause people to cease playing even more if they could see how few players are actually playing...

On a side note will one of the mods sort out the troll in this forum that's spamming already...

Have to agree, spent around 15 mins now waiting for some TDM lagness ^^,
Yet nothing has popped up..
Had a game with some ppl from the states before.. Tho due to host leaving the game decided that i that live in sweden should become the host.. Everyone but me had 1 bar connection due to that and well.. Game died out pretty fast =<

So seeing how many from my region is in a game mode would be awsome since i dont care about the gamemode.. Just want to play a game or two sometimes..

Yeah I feel for you. I think the number of players on the MP of this game here in Australia is... bordering on dead. Which is a real shame really as this game is good. :( Though I understand the game hasn't long since been released and many are likely either still on singleplayer or aren't bothering with the multiplayer until it's fixed properly.

I agree with the topic though I haven't been siting and waited much for game to start. It's always an issue when playing with people from the states because of the distance and not having dedicated servers. There's alot of swedes playing though so when even I'm in a room full of "us" the conn is great.
