    With the inevitable end of the unstable, unreliable client for supreme commander forged alliance dying today, Planetary Annihilation's fanbase is growing quickly! Many of the players have finally given up on the old, outdated game and are seeing the white light that is Planetary annihilation just in time for the full release of the game this month!

    some food for though. PA's usage curve on steam (not-yet stable) is just now reaching FAF's (without steam playerbase, stable for years and steadily growing).

    Nononono FaF. As in Forged Alliance Forever. The owner shut it down today because his moderators demanded server access to do updates regularly, were denied it, and then threatened to make their own lobby client.

    That would explain me not being able to connect.

    Welp. that's Zep for ya.

    god dddddddddddddddamn

    hopefully these guys have the means to carry out their threats.

    faf's not dead as long as there's still people who love it.

    and yeah those numbers where from FAF, GPGnet never got that high.
    wow he didn't miss a detail.

    That is very strange. Uber must have taken over the URL as soon as the site was shut down. It will be a great advertisement for Uber!

    The website and the client for faforever.com has been shutdown today.

    I for one will miss FAF and see no reason why PA and FAF can't exist together. There is already talk about another team doing FAR (Forged Alliance Reborn).

    Today is a sad day :(

    no it's not strange.

    have you ever heard of bit.ly ? it's a site that is ONLY redirections.

    redirecting by only changing the HTML head is easy

    i'm really not sure what to say. I've never been an FA player but i do know FaF was awesome.

    There should be an 'idc' option.

    We have one thread for this topic, we don't need another one targeted at starting the FAF drama in the PA forums.
