Why is the servers so dead

Crossfire back from 2012 was so packed of players in every server. Alpha back than was just full but now nobody are on these servers, I kinda get why people would quit this game with league also like over watch, CSgo. How are we going to make the game more active again and it seems crossfire in 2017 could possibly be shut down if nobody plays. All the money and time wasted into your account from when you started will be gone.

    1. yes its dying
    2. you cant really do anything about because games are evolving and so is technology... the specs required to play cf is bare minimum or borderline a toaster...
    while other games require a stronger PC which like i said now a days are more Affordable...so its only natural to play a better game..
    3. if crossfire shuts down (which im prepared for) and most likely wont shutdown for another 2-3 years... and when it does ill be alrite... but ill cry on the inside

    i heard their contract is set to end at 2019 and they're willing to renew it. it actually makes perfect since, a 10 year contract...

    As long as the forums are still kept online i'll be happy. I need to stare at this post count a little longer.

    CF2 would probably be out by then.

  • The simple reason why CF is dying is because, unloyal &/or offended players who got 'truly fed up' of our old/current CF issues over the years, eventually moved on to more Competitive and Stable/Richer games for their satisfaction/needs.

    Here is just an example of some successive games (who took away many of our CF native players) during this decade: http://whatculture.com/gaming/10-greatest-fps-games-last-ten-years?page=2

    Here is another list of NEW successive games, who have stolen even more player base of ours not too long ago: http://gamingbolt.com/top-20-most-wanted-fps-games-of-2016-and-beyond

    I'm surprised we still get players coming in here, LOL (obviously because most of us got a bad PC/or just Loyal).
  • I spend my money now on new games as CF is slowly going south. The Hack ranked clan is killing us all. I don't buy vips anymore and now the FP mall gives away free weapons that I paid for with spins. RIP CF. I wish you well.

    If you could enlighten me, out of curiosity which of "Free Weapons FP Mall" did you spin for? have I missed something, since when Broken weapons been in black market

    kwAcnS2.png?1

    FP Mall was great idea and still support it regardless what ZP items I have or VIPS, FP Mall gives other players chance to use Variety of weapons such as Silent gun M4a1 which of course now really hard to get Silent weapons if you don't purchase ZP excluding the new Zm2 rewards weapons!. FP Mall also gives new player chance to test some of those items, for example not many have Gatlin, so maybe they would like to test it or use it MM even though weight has changed for the worst making the gun useless now and obsolete.

    But FP Mall no way is effecting the player Uniqueness of some of ZP weapon Skins! in fact most of the FP items are weak compared to originals and ZP Skins!


    *****Of course if they added VIPS or Event ZP Skin weapons in FP Mall then that would make me concerned but for now its just crystal, not good looking weapons and that's fine! as long as VIPS and ZP skinned Weapons stay out of there, shouldn't be an issue!**************

    *********I agree hackers specially in Ranked games have destroyed the mode and potentially the game If not solved, issue is XTrap became useless*******
  • All they did was to make these weapons Blue or red crystal, The Kukri is the only broken one. OBV you can spin crates for the rest back in the day and now there just free. Oh well.
  • Well CF was good while it lasted, honestly one o the best online PC games. It would be really cool tho if they somehow managed to bring this game back to life. Maybe bring all CF versions onto one server? Not one server but only 1 CF version and multiple servers within that version that'd be pretty cool.
  • Why? Ohhhh boi. Why... The only thing that is holding me in this game is Friends and the money I spent. This game gets worse and worse. I only do random damage, no matter where I shoot. I always die 2 seconds after being behind a wall. The only way you can enjoy this game is by having 200+ ping. This game is not worth anymore, obviously, it won't attract new people from the right region when they have no advantages in the game.
  • Look, crossfire is a great game but hit reg in this game is what's making it bad. Trust me, I'm a competitive player and nothing makes me or the players I've played with more mad about anything but hit reg and interp. If those can get fixed, the game is fine. After getting killed behind a wall, just makes you want to exit the game.
  • This game is old, subpar graphics, and outdated game engine.
    Pair that with overpowered guns like VIPs and buggy gameplay(hit reg, falling through walls, freezes).
    Now add a non-english speaking toxic playerbase that doesn't even know how to play the game properly.
    Lastly, add hackers that can't be kicked because of a new (lack of) kick vote system.

    Everyone who plays CF has the choice between dealing with this everyday, or spending $15 on CS:GO and playing that instead.

    Still wondering why not as much people don't play?

    I don't want the game to die but it's inevitable. This is the only online game I ever played for more than a week. Started when I was 13 now I recently turned 20.
    I'll shed a manly tear if it gets shut down ngl :'(

    I don't know how exactly this game works but that would be so cool, but I guess that posibility it's almost impossible

    OR they could just continue with their CF TWO/2 project and when the day comes for it's official release, all VETERANS from this version who have been around for 5+ years should get their ACCOUNTS TRANSFERRED to the new CF2 game (or just get a super duper starter compensation package).
