seems like many are confused. 1.51 is still not made mandatory. Yes the community is split. Lots of lazy bums who don't want to DL the latest patch. Eventually all GSPs will be required to release the new server patch.
What I am not getting is those who think we got hit hard by this is completely oblivious to the situation. We are true multi gaming community and we got such excellent policies and procedures that many like to follow the same concept. When we had arma 2 we were ranked 1st, when we had 2 call of duty servers both ranked 2nd and 3rd. We have 2 excellent bf2 servers and 2 excellent bc2 servers. 2142 will come around again given its not compulsory to upgrade yet. So there really isn't a concern here. I am sure with the game available on steam in 2 weeks for dirt cheap should only re-jevenate it. We go by variety and demand within our community. HOS and Homefront coming to TBG in the near future. You can have a billion servers for 1 game but means nothing really. That being said, along with excellent admins and a community that is actually very pro-active against cheaters, this is what makes TBG unique from the rest!
