I'm trying to harass Vince to give me permissions to use said STEAM group, when I get them eventually I will announce mod updates and releases to help out.

But please be aware to make such announcements not just for IE updates... otherwise the other "big" mods will shut down their ranks in this forum :)
Hinkel trying to promote his ACW mod and Roman Mod xD

I see what you are trying 8)
I still support the mod and all mods alike.

I dont want to promote my mods.. I just want to have equal attention.. ;)

We could set up public events! Like maybe even public realism events to help stress test the server and just make a simple trench warfare map!

That is indeed a really good idea.

I talked to Vince about it, sadly it can't happen as the group thing was set up by Paradox and it is a pain in the ass to try and get them to do even simple things like group invites.

Not really surprised about that.

Just make your own steamgroup if you want to promote mods and invite people in it. Get several people to invite their entire friendlist and it will fill quick enough.

Aye, the main problem though with events is that sooo many people gave up that there is just not enough people showing up at once.

The Friday Official Event is cancelled now, which is what kept my lads interested, I hope it's restarted soon. I think simply the release should of been a few more weeks, it would of been worth it I say. People don't have the patience most times, and if you don't deliver what you say in all perfectness, they're off. Either way, I think Bringing Brits into the mod is the only thing that's going to boost the numbers largely.

Well for two years developement and this is what was released to the public I have to say it is disapointing, I'll come back when it is better which I doubt.

These things take time. M&B mods are like aged wines.

Make an Official NW Mod Community Group, invite me and Olaf along with the creators of N&S, B&I, Iron Europe and the up coming 1812 mod and open it to the public. Better than doing nothing but moaning really :).

Hello.. I have a problem... It says I don't have Mount&Blade Warband: Napoleonic War and I have to buy it
Try joining a regular Napoleonic Wars server and then re-running the installer.

A good place to start would be to set up specific, weekly times where people get together together for public play. Otherwise, everybody will come onto the server at different times, and immediately leave, all the while unaware that there are 20 other people who just did the same thing.

Make sure each mod has at least a weekly Official Event, if possible in both time zones?

I can't find a Saturday event for us to attend... If there was one we would be happy to go!
