As already said, running battlegroup on this server is a bad idea because it takes attention away and its arcade-ish gameplay does not appeal to many in our community (me included) and isn't fit for competitive gaming.

(Mr_J's previous request for BG42 was downvoted by the majority)


However i think we should not shelve this thread yet.
I particular I ike the idea of having BF1918 seperately installed



Why? Because it is a well made mod with unusual setting and its community is unfortunately dead
Also this year marks the hundredth anniversary of the beginning of WW1, a BF1918 event would be the perfect commemoration

I don't like Battlegroup 42. And that is because for me the models sucks (there are good models), the sound can much bether (like fire the gun) and sometimes the effects are bad. Also it can be the death for the FHSW mod. I'm disappointed in your Poll. Yes and No..... Its army style. I love to hear always a yes or a no. But in this case it should be also a maybe. Because i dont want it because what i say early. But i want it because there are more people playing BG42 that maybe not know what FHSW is. And if you do that, wich i also ask then for a BF1942 (and i think you should bether do that than a BG42 server) you can promote FHSW to others.

However, for me it is a great idea to have another server with another mod wich can be use as promote for FHSW mod. But it can be also the death for FHSW. I have vote yes....but i like more a maybe. Because i love a second server, but i think not BG42.

We definitely need at least 15 "Yes" votes. Otherwise it is not representative at all!
No quick decisions in this issue.


This is a gaming community. People come here to relax. If you start an argument you will get kicked.

Quid pro quo.

We can be happy when there even are some players on our server, so splitting it into two different server can make it even worse.

Is BG well played in these days? In the past, i know it had many players, but today?

No no, I didn't mention 2nd server! Who would pay for it? One BF42 server can handle multiple mods the same way as the PC.

Do we have a real rootserver or only a gameserver? I thought of a rootserver, where additional can be started and run parallel...we had that in our old community, FHW

Courage meant to fight even if the enemy is over powerful!

While I do think that battlegroup42 is a great mod with stunning graphics (especially the hq models)
I don't like the more arcade-ish gameplay e.g. I really hate how the tanks work in the mod, cause both light and heavy have weak armor and are very fast which leads to the usage as transportation vehicle to capable flags rather than as infantry support.

For Coop: Battlefield 42 doesnt have intelligent ai, so shooting them is not challenging and boring (my opinion)

I would love to see B1918 played again. That was a great mod that I never got to experience with a decent amount of players

I voted for permanent because I think it´s a good alternative and we can advertise FHSW there too. BG 42 couldn´t stand FHSW anyway, so no way to think about that.
BTW only work if we have a rootserver dry

I think it's only useful for playing around in singleplayer and looking at the well done maps and models from which one can take inspirations. (Mr_J's previous request for BG42 was downvoted by the majority)


@Mayer: Please, take account of fact that I engaged the BG42 poll when FHSW was in the middle of crisis. A 15 players on weekend was a rare peak. And the main reason why i made that poll was that BG42 supports coop mode, so people wouldn't need to play 2 vs 2. Anyway that question is outdated these days.

If Stefan is hosting a BF1918 event (in my opinion a good date would be late july/early august, the historical start date of the war),
I suggest a historical battle line (battles of 1914 in 2014)

Here are the dates for the 1914 maps:

Battle of Halen - 12 August 1914
Raid on fort Pontisse - 12-13 August 1914
Battle of Mons - 23 August 1914
Tannenberg - 23–30 August 1914
Vitry - 6 September 1914
Bismarck Archipel - 11 September 1914
Mountblainville - 25 September 1914
Tabuaeron (objective mode) - September 1914
Ypres Streets - 7 October 1914
Ypern - 21 October – 22 November 1914
Langemarck - 21-24 October 1914
Ramskapelle - 30-31 October 1914
Tsingtao - 31 October - 7 November 1914
Battle of Tanga - 3–5 November 1914
Battle of Basra - 11-21 November 1914
Falkland Islands - 8 December 1914

a good list for a 2 days event

Some of the maps for BF1918 would need to be tested, my game has crashed a few times with it. As is right now there are absolutely no servers for it.
