I have no idea how to make it a ladder game, sorry aku about pangaea

On making it a ladder game, it's your call and no big deal, either way. I think making it a ladder game means that you have to be registered on battlefield.com, and then you post a thread saying that you're starting a ladder game. Then when the game is done, you post the results, which is then tracked by battlefield, along with results of all ladder games. Theoretically, all the players should be registered, but I don't think that's a critical requirement. I think they're a bit vague about how to handle FFA results appropriately, but that's not our problem

IMO, the result is that the Dom2 community gets access to a bigger player pool, and we get the benefit of a site to track the history of our games.

Here's some links for Battlefield:

Aku:
Sorry about taking your spot. I had seen the open game on the server without finding this thread. So I uploaded my pretender.

I've uploaded an Ulm pretender. This should be good. I've never even played Ulm in single player...much less MP.

Best,
John

Making it ladder game is easy.. i have play like 100+ ladder game in Age Of wonders serier

First you need to get all players to register to www.the-battlefield.com... it will take only 1-2min to do it and you get free account

after all have register we play game and have fun. After game winner of game go to report game... he tell all game info(map size, number of players, indie strength and players name) then we will get points to ladder... good thing is that you dont lose any points if you lose.. you can only get points.

after first season 3 best players will get prize!!!


so what other think should we make it ladder game?

How many players are you looking for Frosted? I haven't uploaded yet, as I'm still testing Caelum SP, but I can do so at short notice, if it looks like we're going to go.

I'd love to see us get 14+ players, especially given that we're on Orania - but I think we've got just 7 now (including me). Anyone have any ideas on how we can get more players in?

I would love to play but only up to Sep 7 (unless I can get a sub until I'm back home on the 21st)... also I'm quite n00bish...
Just letting ppl know the interest is definitely out there; it's just harder to get a game going than logging on to Battlenet or something like that... but I'm hoping D2 MP is more rewarding, of course!
