Atrik Posted Thursday at 22:07 Report Share Posted Thursday at 22:07 (edited) Hi @Thomas Stewart, you likely joined a old lobby, make sure you reinstall the new version of the game (currently a27). Downloads are available there: https://play0ad.com/ Edited Thursday at 22:08 by Atrik 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game has a pretty large user base, though this forum has gotten more or less abandoned over the years, to the point of which there are about 20 regular users and a few people who come and go a lot. It’s great to see more people coming to this forum lately, I wonder if we could increase the number by making the Forums button bigger on the 0ad website (as it is, it’s a little small and hard to see, especially on a phone).

SDM Posted yesterday at 17:55 Report Share Posted yesterday at 17:55 As much as I hate for it to be true, I think the forum format has essentially died off. While I personally prefer it and find it easier to search than other alternatives, there's no GUI fix that can bring in newer people to the forum. I know that the team is/was skeptical of Discord, but I'm fine with anything as long as the community is active. I checked the irc yesterday and that's in an even worse shape.

There are several Discords already open that we could migrate to, but it would probably be best to start our own. Sad really, since using Discord seems to encourage the posting of random crap over actual discussion of useful topics. But maybe it will be for the best.

That young man had just arrived at the forum, if you look closely there are older profiles whose authors are very old and they were also recurrent. In art you see that there was a greater variety of people and now it is a dead place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the impression many players and frequent users of the forum are from the Age of Forum... (or the Age of Fora? Which in retrospect sounds like an Ensemble Studios title) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before starting your own, please use the forum search engine and search for the term 'Discord'. Only in the past two years several new servers have appeared. Creating yet another Discord server may separate the community in more pieces. 15 hours ago, Classic-Burger said: I don't like Discord Second that! 30 minutes ago, Outis said: Age of Forum I'm from that era ... and I'm not willing to research the next phase. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
