Thats no surprise really. With the type of game (no classic objective, no round based), with the dramatic location change (europe to pacific).. its a whole different game. The only other game that compares to is vietcong and most oft he ppl wanting mohpa were into the generic ww2 type game.

playing invader on a public server is almost unplayable. you're going insane trying to teach your m8s the basics. And even then you're just alone and its no fun. You need a whole team and of course voice to get a decent experience out of this gametype.

Why putting that much effort in mohpa when you get twice as much fun by your current fav game (mohaa, cod, cs, et, vietcong..) ppl play it for a couple minutes get frustrated since its too complicated and leave.

I'm just talking about the few ppl who actually CAN play that game online. Not everyone has the hardware to get enough fps to play this one without lags. Plus having to buy the original game always works against building up a community. 

I'm pretty sure mohaa worked so well because you were able to play it online with your 6th gen copy. There IS a difference when playing a 2 level demo or a full version online. If there are enough ppl online who can play the game for free then its much easier to build a community. there were patched cod servers in the beginning and it was okay. Whole clans could test the game. Most of the players had to buy the game later on when joining a league, but the basic access to the server was given.

The EA login system is a pain in the ... Sry, the game will never catch up. My opinion. Its sad though. I would like to play it online, but most of my clanmates won't even consider buying it because of the hardware they have. They stick with mohaa or just switch to css. There's nothing I can do about that.

Reminds me of Breakthrough. But thats another story.

> It is almost to late to have Linux binary's now.

Doenst really matter. Empty windows or empty linux servers... Besides the Windows Servers have major mem leaks as well. Having to kill 800MB mohpa processes every other day is no fun.

Well, sry for this long one. I'm really not against PA, I'd love to play it but seeing the current situation I believe this game is going nowhere.
