FFOW for the Xbox 360 only 19.99 at GoGamer  [ Comment ]
14:06 PST | Pyros | Print News | Category: Community News
GoGamer is holding one of their special "48 Hour Madness Sales", selling Frontlines Fuel of War for only $19.99 right here. For a price like that, you can't really say no. Especially with the free DLC1 and 2 now available on Xbox Live.

So if you've been on the fence about picking up FFOW, this sale should probably be enough to push you over the fence.

Frontlines PC servers down  [ Comment ]
9:53 PST | Pyros | Print News | Category: Official Announcements
The Kaos Status blog brings word that the PC servers are down for a bit today:
We are performing maintenance on our login servers and they will be down briefly. During this time you may not be able to join online games or may lose connection with online games you are playing. This only affects PC players.
This update doesn't have the standard "this is unrelated to the upcoming patch" warning, so it is safe to assume that this maintenance is related to the upcoming patch.

Burning Nations tournament begins on November 2nd  [ Comment ]
15:13 PST | Pyros | Print News | Category: Official Announcements
After months and months of delays, the Burning Nations tournament for the PC version of Frontlines: Fuel of War has announced that they'll be starting the tournament on November 2nd.

Signups are open until October 30th, and you can win $10,000 in cash, three HP Blackbird 002 computers, and six NVIDIA 8800 GTX Video Cards by competing. If you are thinking about signing up, there are currently only 34 teams registered, so your odds of winning are pretty decent. Especially when you consider the majority of those teams signed up back in January and have probably completely forgotten about the tournament. To register, you'll need a team of six or more people.

DLC weapons/vehicles profiled  [ Comment ]
13:40 PST | Pyros | Print News | Category: Official Announcements
If you haven't picked up the Xbox 360 DLC3 pack yet (or perhaps if you're on the PC, where it has yet to arrive), you may be interested in this profile over at the Kaos Status Blog, which takes a look at some of the new DLC content:
To compete with the Western Coalition’s AB-11, the Red Star have developed their own bomber, the MRB-131. This bomber is designed with one purpose: unleash as much firepower into the enemy as possible. Small and maneuverable, the MRB-131 carries a front-mounted cannon for air-to-air and air-to-ground combat.

There are profiles for two new vehicles and the new weapon, so be sure to check it out.

We are aware that some players are having lag issues on certain dedicated servers. We are monitoring the situation and making adjustments where needed. Please continue to post about any issues you notice. Thanks
So if you're experiencing an unusual amount of lag, just hold on for a bit longer as Kaos fixes the issue.

Owners of ATI video cards can now grab the latest drivers directly from ATI's website. Released yesterday, these drivers bring the Catalyst suite up to version 8.9.

PC server downtown this Thursday  [ Comment ]
0:40 PST | Pyros | Print News | Category: Official Announcements
Some standard PC server maintenance coming our way on early Thursday according to the Kaos Blog:
We will be performing maintenance on our login servers on Thursday, September 18th, 2008 between 9:00 AM (EDT) and 11:00 AM (EDT). During this time you may not be able to join online games or may lose connection with online games you are playing. This only affects PC players and is unrelated to the upcoming patch.
Like the update says, this is just some standard server work and has nothing to do with 1.2.0.
