That's the sticking point.
The other side is, while many players have returned to Forgotten Hope.
I find it hard to imagine we are getting new players.
Because, if the Battlefield 2 game isn't being sold or supported any more, then absolutely new player is being added to the player base. Not one.
Hence, we are either marking time at best, losing and gaining in equal measure from a finite pool of fans who bought BF2 before the game went off the shelves,
OR more likely, on a glide-slope to oblivion, no matter how much things look stable now. Eventually,
people will stop playing, and our one and only strategy of getting people to dust of their BF2 game will fail with increasing regularity until we lack a critical mass to make playing online worthwhile.
THE END
If people ARE able to acquire Battlefield 2, then this is all a moot point and we should stop discussing it.
If we are on a glide-slope however, then we need to stop sweeping this discussion under the rug and pool our rather dedicated fan-base in whatever effort we choose to keep the mod alive.
