Wow, its been so long since I posted here. I've recently got back into playing battlefield 2, a game I still consider one of the best fist person shooters of its type ever. I played battlefield 2 from its release 14 years ago and religiously virtually every day for almost 4 years. Family, life and other games (ArmA, Crysis etc) got in the way.
I've since returned to BF2 a couple of times, including a couple of months ago, when I realised how much I'd missed playing this game. I had a lot of the old mods and maps backed up on disks and external drives. Annoyingly I dropped the external before I'd had the chance to download everything and becasue of the damage, I lost everything, so for the past several weeks every day I've been visiting all the sites that still host Battlefield mods and maps downloading as i always like to have everything at hand. Anyway, while doing that I was also jumping into the game every day. In fact BF2 has replaced what has been my main game since 2014, The Elder Scrolls Oline. I've hardly touched it for several weeks and have even avoided the latest dlc addon to ESO which was released about a week ago and which I'd pre-ordered. BF2 seems to have grabbed me again. Back in the early days I used to beta test for several modders such as Hayabusa (Mercenaries Mod), The Dark, MadOsga (Marines mod), Froachman, Homegrown and BigFootUS48 for the MCC mod and other mappers such as BeerPizzaChips and ShaneJohn. I love the game and loved spending time checking out new material. I'm even thinking of doing some modding myself. All I need to do is actually start, which has always been a problem for me. Once started I usually sink myself deep. I just need to complete a couple of projects and BF2 may just be my next new project. Maybe its 14 years late, but I see that there is still a very active modding community for the game.
Watch this space (probably once the summer vacation period starts late in July)
Wow long time no see bud! Great to see you back! We sure could use mappers more than anything else over at my Battlefield 1944 mod! ;)
