EA 117 Gaming Community

Wish I could help you Sanchez, but I don't own any Apple devices to say what their options are or how you would ensure what will happen, or what specific action to invoke to get that result.

I agree that EA117 has always been, or has at least tried to be, a place where the great community rivals the greatness of the game. Which is why we were more than happy to carry on providing what the original founders had built. Thank you to everyone who comes here looking to enjoy playing Desert C...

Well yeah... but with zero screen tearing and no lag! I see every single cycle of your tea-bagging my corpse...

Well that's too bad... would have been nice to have you join us up here in the 21st century. 😜 Hopefully Windows 7 is able to continue for as long as you need it. (Obviously no issue here running on Windows 10, but certainly could be something more unique to the laptop or video chipset to contribute...

What's the latest and greatest for Win10 DC installs? I've never used anything different than http://ea117.com/dcinstall, but that's because I have my CDs / ISOs of my CDs. If you need a downloadable installation set, see the link Hairy gave further down in the comments to those installation instru...

It's seasonal. One is for when you fart near Thanksgiving, and the other is when you fart near Christmas.

Non-holiday seasons, you just let it linger.

I think Win 11 is rolling out sometime soon isn't it? Happened on October 5th. You can download Windows 11 just like you can download Windows 10 with the link I mentioned to Blink. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11 Does not require a unique license key; whatever key you us...

100% of the licenses on my personal machines are simply the OEM sticker and/or the embedded SMBIOS key, since upgrade to Windows 10 was possible for free even if the machine hadn't been purchased with Windows 10. I did pay full retail for a key when taking my wife's laptops from Windows 10 Home to W...

I would go Windows 10 without even thinking twice, but that's certainly not the consensus you would get from a wider poll. People are old and farty about their Windows preference just like they are about anything else, and will give you a whole list of reasons why they don't think you should do it. ...

Also...what are they selling the chair for used? Looks like it originally went for $300... Was at $100 and then went down to $70. They only provided a single picture of the actual chair, but I think it's the one the Amazon listing actually shows: image.png As opposed to the pictures in the Amazon r...

It looks like something is failing about the Google reCAPTCHA on that page, so we will look into that and get it resolved. It was definitely failing for me last night too, around the same time you had tried. But it seems to be working in all tests right now, as though it was a temporary or maintena...

Thanks for pointing out the Contact Us link having issues, Slagothor. It looks like something is failing about the Google reCAPTCHA on that page, so we will look into that and get it resolved. Regarding the address for connecting to the server, indeed, as with your previous addresses, you happen to ...

Guess it will come down to the gameplay. "Oooh, another World War I / World War II game" doesn't immediately resonate for me, anyway. But I don't play vanilla BF1942 any more, either. Not sure what the "always hundreds of people on the battlefield" (whether real people or AI) wil...

Someone in our neighborhood is selling one of these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07V1KSMZ3/ So of course I thought about checking with our resident chair nerd to see how well it compared. But I lost interested after seeing the "4D arm rests", and the Amazon customer question from someone wh...

Yes, BangBangOw created CTF SSMs of Liberation of Caen, Invasion of the Philippines, and Battle of Brittan. All currently on the server.

If you needed a chair and you're not going to buy an EA117 chair, I... I just don't know what we're doing here any more...

My wife has been in town unexpectedly, both two weeks ago and again this week. So I've been away as well, choosing to spend time with her before she jets off again. Should be back to slackin' next week...

Spent quite a bit of time in murdered missing people cases such as Kelli Bordeaux and James Chambers, Jr.. Both cases you can actually view on Dateline. One just recently aired called "The Bridge". I fly under the radar on such so you may have to just guess who I am on the program... I th...

Well that sounds awful...


...awfully fun. I would have been fired already for the number of tool steel door stops & other thing-a-ma-jigs I made and took home.

I hadn't seen this one yet. Truly amazing how it evolved in the latest versions.

Indeed we would be happy to see you on more, Kurtz! If you use the GameTracker.com banner on our front page, one of the stats they show is a graph of how many people are on over the course of 24 hours. This can give you an idea of when the "prime time" was & will be on the server. Ther...

Jolly Giada wanted to let everyone know he's anxious to get back here and play. Just some temporary wrist and health issues keeping him away after the last EA117 server event. So play with your non-captured flags and your non-sniper-riddled noggins while you can, because Jolly will return and take t...

I just mean that they would be grouped together like that. Similar to how -- right now -- at the very end of the map list, we always have the COOP-mode maps grouped together. You vote to one of the COOP maps, and you end up playing COOP map after COOP map until you "vote out of that block"...

How about playing couple of days a week just infantry maps? or the other way around couple of day a week big maps with planes only That could be a good idea, Sanchez. Similar to how the maps are already categorized by "CTF versus Conquest" and making sure a certain number of one doesn't h...

Turning map vote off.. with the small list.. so every map is a “good” one. We currently have nineteen maps treated as "the good ones": Nas CTF, El Al CTF, Coastal CTF, Docks CTF, Berlin CTF, Village CTF, Bocage CTF, Wake CQ, El Al Day 2 CQ (Helos), Gazala CTF, Basrah's Edge CTF, Eastings ...
