RA2 time capsule?

[Sparkey98]

I thought, what if we put together a time capsule (zip file) full of bots, skins, mods, memorbila of modern day RA2 technology, given to a younger member, so 10-12 years from now it can all be given to the comunity, so we can look back at it.

[G.K.]

Perhaps the cleverest idea you've had. IDK if it'd work though.

[cephalopod]

It wouldn't work. Things aren't exactly gonna get lost, and who says that member will stick around and/or keep the zip file? And somehow, unfortunately, I doubt the forum will be active for another 10-12 years...

[Sparkey98]

The comunity will always be around, though.

[Squirrel_Monkey]

Why not hosting it on GTM, tech can be uploaded each year to see how it changes.

[Sparkey98]

I think it should be put up for one year, while stuff is uploaded, then locked for years.

[Badnik96]

Hey, I'll be that member to keep it. Maybe a shorter lock span, though. Maybe 3-5 years?

[Sparkey98]

I'd say seven. Alot has happend in seven so far. It would be a real easy way to keep track of bots, two, I think it should have all competitors from BBEANS and other big tounrys during that time period.

[GroudonRobotWars]

I think it would be a good idea

[frezal]

Your best bet would probably be to download one of the bot packs from the early days of RA2. I doubt this community will last another ten years. The game was a bargain game to begin with, and it's only getting older. That being said, you might as well throw together a pack anyway.

Dude, this game will always have a small deticated comunity. It's gone from a game to a platform. Sure, stock will die off, but it will allways be moded.

This community is shrinking. At some point, probably within the next five years, nobody will be left to carry the torch.

He is right the moded versions will last longer than the stock

I've been in the community since the game was released. It's definitely shrinking, not growing.

[Sparkey98]

Actually, I think it's stayed the same since, I'd say, '06.

I am not a spy

You weren't around, how do you know?

[DuckRA2]

I don't think this game could survive a healthy 5 years. We will all move on to cod or something.

Or maybe... STARCRAFT 2
