When on MultiPlay Ranked Servers?

[Roly]

Just curious when you are going to implement on the Ranked servers?

There is all kinds of talk on the bf2cc forums that the current version that is out is 100% approved for use on the ranked servers.

BF2CC crew replied stating that since they are the official BF2 admin tool provider for EA..then YES they are approved.

They also mention that the daemon is approved...is there any reason on the windows servers (yes I know it requires .NET) it cannot be installed?

We're currently adding some extra options to Clanforge for ModManager support. The Daemon cannot be used at this time as it basically does the same job as Clanforge, so there would be a conflict. We are however investigating the possibility of integrating either it or it's functionality

Still doesn't answer the when part of the question...and while I understand you are adding functionality into Clanforge..why can you not go ahead and install the python scripts so we can use BF2CC while you are adding that functionality.

There were many gaming providers posting that they were doing it now...is it that difficult for you guys to keep up with them...or is Clanforge that much of a drag on resources/manpower?

And what happens if EA rolls the daemon into the official game on a next patch...will it not break Clanforge? So why not offer an option to use either the daemon or clanforge?

Well for a start EA have never said they're going to roll the daemon into the patch, and if they did, you'd still be able to use server executable on it's own. Bear in mind we're a ranked server provider, so we get a special ranked exe too.
As for ModManager, we're integrating ModManager into Clanforge in such a way that ModManager won't operate "as normal". Bear in mind that the man who designed ClanForge also made ModManager, and he wants to integrate them tightly. There is currently no ETA other than "soon"
