Dude I completely agree with you & thanks for sharing. ROE was such a uniquely fun take on the genre with regards to how you choose your location & conditions for winning. There are so many fond memories associated with Dione in particular like:

- Aerial combat with SMGs and hang gliders
- Snowboarding (literally every aspect of it)
- Making up cross country rally courses and seeing who can make it the furthest in whatever car you can find
- Battling 5 other teams for control of Sigel Castle
- M4 with compensator and vert foregrip
- Flying across the map from the towers of Fort Tyrfing
- Sneaking onto the helicopter as a team of 4 while everyone else fights for a spot
- Bad translations like the "Sluggish Blinding" gliders or the lore pages for the characters

Even Europa had its moments. Remember the first time you found the submarine and got in it? The detail of the underwater area was so cool to me. Or grappling into trees with the camo skins for easy picks (albeit extremely lame lol). I could reminisce about this game forever.

The solution to fixing dwindling player count was not adding 10 new guns that do the same thing and a boring flat desert map. The issues with the game were around optimization in my experience. It's genuinely sad. I used to get on just to see if I could find another human but I've long since given up. Glad to see someone still fondly remembers this game like I do after all these years.

I wish I had the foresight to save my old sessions. But this is hilarious.

I just regret taking for granted that the game would just always be there should i want to play it. Then it just wasn't anymore. The announcement that they were shutting it down forever was really kinda panic inducing because I wanted to go back and play everything all over again and again... But i couldnt.

Same, it was the best BR ever!

i can't understand how the best BR game ever made had to disappear.
this was by far my favorite game ever. i wish Santa gives me a new server to play this awesome game with my friends. i miss this game so much it hurts. i had the best time playing with with my friends.

On December 1st me and some friends are going to fire up the game just as a symbolic gesture. It may not mean anything or DO anything, but we are just going to do it for the symbolic nature of it.
