Battlefront needs AutoUpdate

This is crazy... I'm looking at ASE and there are loads of people, looks like great servers too, playing version 1.0??

 

I know if I didn't look for a patch, I'd never know it was available - there should be an autoupdater you can run at launch to make sure you're up to date.

so far i know there isn't a single reason not to update!

I agree with Rends, what could possibly be your reason for not updating? The game runs better, there is a better client, more options for admins and more stable servers.

 

Why would you want to keep playing 1.0?

Well it's not only the players. there are still some Servers running 1.0 software.

Here is a actualy example of unpatched Servers i just got from Gamespy:

(Server Name , Active players)

 

FerrisStateBattlefront (161.57.5.51:3658) 50 Players

 

[bA]BattleArenasSTARWARSBATTLEFRONTwww.BattleArenas.com (212.42.1.20:3658) 31 Players

 

PTY_Clan_Public (69.44.56.234:3658) 24 Players

 

Plopsters_SWBF (217.158.150.54:3658) 20 Players

 

http://www.blackknightservers.com (38.113.97.232:3658) 16 Players

 

!!!PureGamerBFServer (206.173.165.60:3658) 24 Players

 

{pdX}SWBF-Just-for-Kicks (216.183.109.37:3658) 40 players

 

Ilangame.com Free Shooters (69.28.240.210:3658) 32 players

 

 

and some more...

 

You see most of them are full. I wonder why the Admins didn't upgrade to 1.1 yet.

 

6 of 10 most frequent (the time i checked) servers still runn the old Server Version 1.0

Well, the other small "patches" didn't do jack, so I could care less. I'm fine with the version I have. I'll probbaly update when they get a linux dedicated server released.

Please believe me when I say that you want to keep the option of updateing as an option to do by yourself. Novalogic have a system where you can't play thier games online unless you update. Last week they released a patch that radically altered gameplay and screwed up fps and hit detection. That S**t storm only got remedied this week after Nova decided to fix the problem they caused. Keep the upate system as an option.
