I hope no one has already posted this, but I'd just like to say thankyou, thankyou 1000 times. I loaded up the All Seeing Eye and it downloaded one of its auto updates..... and I found that Resitance now fully works with it. THANKS!!!

And to think all those people whined and tried to make out it was because of some backhander from GameSpy, shame on them

Is it really all that unreasonable to think? You don't see ads for OFP anywhere on mainstream gaming sites, and then Gamespy has them, gives OFP an award, and then suddenly OFP:R doesn't work with Ganespy's principle competing software? Even if it's not accurate, I can see this as a very possible scenario in today's industry.

Not that Im not happy that ASE works now

Yes it is, some people seem determined to think the worst of Bis, to badmouth Bis, to whine at Bis, how bout giving Bis the benefit of the doubt and waiting for actual evidence before jumping to conclusions? We had enough bullshit with the 3d Rat moron without forum users trying to besmirch Bis' name as well.

Its not BIS we think the worst of, its gamespy.

[Placebo 29]

People said Bis had taken a backhander, how is that not thinking the worst of Bis? Gamespy giving someone a backhander, anyone think that's totally impossible? Nope I think it's possible, Bis accepting a backhander, that I just cannot believe, call me a biased-Bis-bum-licking-fan-boy if you wish but I have great respect for Bis and can't see that changing for now

It also said that "Full Support" for the 'All Seeing Eye' would be provided by the up-coming patch. Good news for sure. Hopefully this is indication that the patch is soon to come!

I'm happy that they finally added the previously self-made filters to ASE. This fixes the problem of nuking the filters when updating. Anyway i don't think *any* other effort was made to open the master server to ASE since it reports 38 servers right now, while the in-game browser shows 98! Not really a change...

Oh lighten up. This sort of shit goes on all the time, it's called a marketing deal. Lifting BIS up on a pedestal isn't going to make everything better. Yes, I love their game. No, they aren't perfect. Yes, I would have kept buying their products even IF they had had a deal with Gamespy- at the time I thought it would have been a pretty ingenious way to get around Codemasters chronic inability to advertise OFP.

So chill Placebo, I'm not insulting your mother, I'm just restating that it was not at all an incredibly unreasonable assumption. I'm glad it turned out to be false, but that doesn't mean things like it don't happen all the time.

I just take great delight in certain people who speak from their rectals being proven wrong, time and time again

But yes as Ralph so wisely and moderater'ly said (unlike I ) tis a time to celebrate not besmudge

I already told in the ASE discussion before and I say it again:

There is no deal between BIS and GameSpy that would prevent other matchmaking services implementing game browsing. We are not aware what the problem with Resistance and ASE is and we did not implement anything to prevent Resistance working with ASE.

I have faith again....now give us that patch ;)))))
