Homepage will be down due to maintenance, at the same time, the homepage will be moved to another server. Lets hope this will be done painless, and with very short downtime, if any. This should not have any effect on the functionallity on our Server-viewer and TS-viewer.
Changes will be made to our infrastructure again sometime in near future.
We are doing negotiations with a known ISP. I'm expecting to close the contract with the ISP in weeks. This means some servers will be moved around, people affected by this will be informed with the details. Changes made which affects the public servers, will be introduced as news here.

The standard maps is limited in numbers, so we have put up some custom maps.

Maps running on our FarCry server can be found in their download section, Thanks to the Farcry Community Maps for supporting this great game.

Note that this IP address is not stored on the advertisement server and is not repurposed for other uses.
A unique ID number is anonymously assigned the first time the player joins a Battlefield 2142 online game. It is stored locally on the PC but is not linked to any personal details.
