Something Must be done.....

Ok, since DA didn't plan ahead far enough to give us a way to tell if someone is running a mod or not. We need to think of a good way to tell what servers will be running mods. Granted there is just the one mod that is out atm but that will not be the chase within just weeks. I expect to see atleast 6 mods out by the end of march minimum. How the frell are we gonna know? By that time there will be soooooooooo many people with the game wanting to run servers that you could never find a way through the mess of server names.

Perhaps some kind of label at the begining of the name that every mod server should use so we can line up all the mod servers together.

(MOD) <==== maybe?


ideas please.

Maybe some of the folks reading this can give input that DA will listen to or atleast read and add something in the first patch they do down the road. We have the locked icon and the skull icon. Maybe add another one if the server runs a mod and add a check box for us to turn the icon on and off. Maybe just being able to change the font color so it stands out when you scroll down the servers.

ideas please.

Good Idea. I think we should just add <MOD> or something like that to the BEGINNING of their server name so people can sort the names and find the modded servers easily.

We'll make a sticky announcement on this once we get enough feedback.
