Hi bud!

Just watched the 2 year anniversary video. Good lord you guys are amazing. Well done!

Hey guys! I'll totally check out the 2 year video. MaranV is a hard-core chess player. I'm sure I can find him if I dig deep enough. Eirias isn't me, but we got along quite well. 😀

Hi old friends! I run a tech startup now and I was telling my team how EA allowed you guys to work on this codebase and how you actually pulled it off. They were blown away. We're impressed! Sadly, I don't have a minute to work on this game but I'm VERY tempted to come back and start playing every now and again. As I was looking through this site I noticed WindHunter & Wolven my old buddies from WAAAAY back on here. And RadicalX is still here? Very cool! Trivia! Do you know the xNTx from my username can from Wolven? Tell them bud! My original account was just FarRock. He convinced me to join his PVE clan. Anyhow, life updates: Four kids, bought a house Run a career coaching business Have a YouTube channel for career coaching Wrote a book for entry level professionals in finance Run a tech startup. We're going live in a month and then will be raising for our first public round, so that's super exciting! How have you all been? Excited to catch up! Any other old buddies of mine here? MaranV still around? EDIT: Just checked out that video I posted 4 years ago. Wow so many of you really wanted me to come back. Makes me nostalgic. I'm gonna download! Love y'all, Mark

Thank you, this is indeed fabulous news. Question I'm sure you have thought of, with only 108 views on this update stream, will there be enough players to keep the game alive? How can you blast this out there so it will get attention and new people will join? I currently have 32K followers on LinkedIn, but most aren't gamers though I'm happy to lend a shout-out if you feel it would help.

But do watermelons really smoke pipes?

Hey Guys! A short RPVE (not short enough sadly I'm terrible right now) video about me, my life, what I've been up to, etc. Catchin y'all up to speed. Looking forward to some real PVE matches and even PVP when it gets real! See you soon! https://youtu.be/ROIvu1Zc4XA Sorry for the delay. It's processing quite slowly.

Hi Y'all, So despite my crazy current schedule (I work 4AM until 11PM) I still want to make time to get some BF content out on YouTube again once the game starts running smoothly. I was never popular by today's online gaming standards but in the BF world I was the most viewed content creator back in the good ol' days. But times have changed. People don't have the patience they used to. I doubt people would sit through my 40min+ videos anymore. So I would like to "hire" an editor. Job Description: Edit my videos (probably 1-2 a week) as 2nd sequence does for Imaqtpie for example. Shorten the videos, add some cool effects, etc. Initial Salary (first 6 months): Whatever YouTube pays me. It's all yours. Caveat: I don't expect to make much, probably $100-$300 a month, maybe even less? Either-way, it's all yours for the first half a year. After this we can revisit the terms. Who knows though, now that the game is much more popular then it was when it was being shut down maybe this could be huge. No idea. PM me if you are interested.

Yeah that merge thing sounds cool, though I haven't done anything on that other account in 3 years I think. Can't wait to get the old guys back together for a 4 way RPVE. Any chance we'll get TheBlackOne back?

Thanks, yeah I wasn't trying to be mean at all. Just was stressed out I suppose. The instant reaction and calling me a troll was ridiculous. I guess that's the age you guys are growing up in. Someone looks at you funny and you report them to the police for offending you. Peeps need to chill.

Ha! One of them was around; he remembers Juggy. I can't remember the exact video on YouTube but I recall him calling scythe fiends "red buggies"

My two oldest are obsessed with Hearthstone. They are dying to play Battleforge.

My whole YouTube channel (as I posted many times on vids) was to try to increase popularity of the game. I made a few hundred dollars on the channel in total and pumped it all back into the community by throwing contests and giving away promos. For context at the same time I was trying to build my online businesses and chose to spend my spare time on BF rather than those for this cause. I never made a cent on the game or my channel and after all that effort (years of promoting) was heart-broken when EA took the game apart.

Man I hope so, life has changes so much. I was an intern then, now I have 4 kids and run an online company with over 200 active students while working 12 hrs a day at a bank. Still, I love the game would be excited to get back into it.

Ah OK, thanks. So many threads to catch up on. Sorry for missing this.

Only if I'm impersonating myself. I made two accounts I probably forgot the pw of the original. The question was how was your experience. Trying to login so many times unsuccessfully does mean the experience was horrible. I get its a stress test but if I can't even get in the game how can I test? I reread my post and stand by everything I said. I without a doubt put more time into trying to save the original Battleforge than ANYONE in the world so talking to me that fiki574 and Readymade is just rude. I finally got in today, played 1 game, and was promptly kicked out. It's stressful for all of us, I get it. Just after putting thousands of hours into something I was excited to see it back and I don't get that experience that many others seem to be experiencing so it's a bad feeling. Maybe cause I'm in NY. Be nice to me MrXLink I gave you a legendary drake if I recall correctly Anyhow, looking forward to when things get more stable. Caio

Hi guys, FarRock here. I have logged in probably over 30 times now only to get a single game in. I would be curious to know what the cost would be to get a stronger server, happy to donate to make this a reality. Cheers, FarRock P.S. For the 1,000 time, yes it's the real farrock whatever the heck that means.

I work for a bank and I'm CEO of this bad boy: www.ScriptUni.com

I'm loving how everyone doubts I'm me, even in-game (got in today). It's the biggest compliment

Haven't been able to launch a single game yet, so they would be pretty awful :). Regular pizza. Loaded with spices. Hot peppers, black pepper, salt, and just a pinch of dead goat.

Sad to say, horrible. I was really excited to play BF again but I logged in I lost count of how many times and have not yet been able to actually play a game. Either I get "Your client has lost connection" or "Too many users", or last time when I clicked CREATE GAME by encounters with twilight it just froze. I'm not going to try anymore...feels hopeless and a waste of time. I'm in NY, USA if this matters at all.

Pizza party at my place cause we'rreeeee back boys!

791, gee this game is fun!

Had nearly as many smurfs as I did
