Server Support / Re: mods on servers

the only argument in favor of mods i could bear is that considering the huge diversity
of other games out there, mods did bring some change to the game.
When you think twice, going through the years only with an M16 and two frags is not really
appealing to youngsters of the "iPhone" generation who are used to swap, shift and switch
everything and are constantly blown away with 3D animations and colorful content.
But our purpose is elsewhere. We know how great the game was when it came out and
to be able to promote its true magic, we have to stick to the basics, to how
the game was when it managed to fascinate so many of us. So competing with other current
games is not our goal (we couldn't do it anyway), all we want is to promote AA2 how it was,
plain and naked (unmodded).
And i can prove that mods will ultimately kill this game : Take PACMAN, the most played game
of all times. Well it worked so well that they brought out PACMAN 3D, but it turned out to be a loser.
Why ? because it wasn't the same game anymore. Yeah it was pimped, in 3D, more colorful,
but it simply wasn't PACMAN anymore.
Think about it.
