LJFHutch Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 I've gone months without a CMSF match and it's getting to me, so here's a list of the best places I know to go looking for a match: XFIRE - http://www.xfire.com/communities/cmsf/ Download - http://www.xfire.com/download/now/ Current members: 32 Pros * Easy to see who's online * Easy to chat to said person and arrange a game * No member limit on groups? (pretty sure there's no limit) * Easy to change nickname to include country (US,GER,AFR etc) Cons STEAM - http://steamcommunity.com/groups/battlefrontgamers? Download - http://cdn.steampowered.com/download/SteamInstall.msi Current members: 30 Pros * Easy to see who's online * No member limit on groups? (also pretty sure there's no limit) * Displays country on profile Cons * Cannot talk to people not in your friend's list - group chat is very rarely used. Right now I'd say Xfire is the best option, but many members are not currently active - including the admin, so joining the group may take a little time. If more people joined the group chat in the Steam group it'd be a workaround to the "no friend - no talky" issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Berto Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 There is another Guild on Xfire: http://www.xfire.com/communities/cmx2/roster/ Mitra and I are the admin. And another group on Steam.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobo Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 It does not seem like there are lots of online players. Does the RT only cut down on participation? Looking to play some online... Bobo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZPB II Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 There is a lot of people online on Steam all the time, it's just that it doesn't automatically put everyone in the chat channel too. The chat channel is a bit quiet, which is a shame, but there's lots of people online to play with nevertheless. Find online people in the Steam group and ask them for a game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekka Posted March 24, 2011 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Hello everyone. I don't really know where to put this but since XFire is being mentionned in this thread, I'll put it here. I am trying to get Combat Mission Shock Force supported in XFire games list. I am a part of the Xfire GameMasters team so I wrote the code to add it but since I am the only one on the team who bought CMSF, I need some of you to test it and tell me if it works for you. The code is available here on Xfire forums. Please post feedback there so I can link to your posts. The more feedback I have, the quicker the game could be supported. I think it could be a first milestone to get other Combat Mission games supported. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
