The team behind the Point of Existence (http://www.pointofexistence.com/) mod is back today already hard at work on their next release for BF2. Here's what they had to say:

The Point of Existence team would like to thank all of the fans (and critics) that are making our 'job' so much fun and rewarding. We appreciate all of the support that we are recieving and want you to know that we are listening to the suggestions and comments that are being posted.

To show that we are hard at work, Matt 'Geledonutt' Wells has provided this render of the POMZ2 Ukrainian Anti-Personnel Mine.

He has also posted some amazing renders of the SU-27 Flanker in his 'interactive section'. You need to be registered on our forums to see this section. Su-27 Flanker Progress... (http://www.pointofexistence.com/forums/index.php?showforum=12)

We strongly encourage inspired mappers to create fan maps for POE. Sgt.Wedge has put together an extremely infomative post about mapping for POE and has provided all of the files you need to do so. POE has introduced some exciting new features, you will need this information to create custom maps with all of them working properly. Mapping resource thread... (http://www.pointofexistence.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=8682)

We thought it would be interesting to show who exactly is playing POE. Here is some information about who is installing our mod. This information is gathered through the GEIP program which players can agree to when installing our modification.

Well spoken my Canadian neighbor.

In the grand days of DC, FH1, EOD, Pirates, POE1, etc. the thrill came from being on the winning side. There were point whores of course, even without ranks.

For the most part though, you would use the assets you had to dominate the other side as a group. People had very little tolerance for wasting tanks and such, for glory rides.

That what makes MODs more fun, and I hope it stays that way. Online FPS games just dont seem the same with ranks added to the equation. Now I sound like a crabby old man, damn.
DO you want it to be like WOW? People playing to trade and sell ranks on Ebay (am I too late?)........
:rolleyes:

Is that downloads or installs?? And how do you know how many installs?

Their installation applet has the ability to send back to them information on the installation - the country it's being installed in, whether it's being installed. It's all on their newspost, if you'd bothered to read it.

I had been to several sites that host downloads for Bf2, and with simple math, PoE2 has been downloaded well over 45,000 times!
I'm very impressed by this mod, and what they accomplished. Sure they have some bugs and such but who does not!!
With the support shown by thier dev team in the past, I am quite sure they are cooking up a something great for us.
I hope every other mod can stand up to your caliber of quality and professionalism that PoE has set!

GG PoE2!

Oddly enough, it seems the Ukranians are not playing the mod...which is about germany vs ukraine.

I guess Ukraine is still very much f**** up economically to spend their spare time playing video games in expensive computers with reasonably fast internet connections. Sad, but true.

The main fault with from the beginning putting ranking into BF2 was that it was (and has) made ppl greedy.

Great to see more work coming from this wonderfull mod, and sweden 3 % w00t w00t
