The time to swing ultimate ban hammer is rapidly approaching, EA have revealed that next month they plan to shut down the servers for 50 games for their back catalogue. This new wave of permanent down time will cover several installments of the Battlefield series, spanning a multitude of formats, including the Battlefield 2: Modern Combat PlayStation 2 servers, which I can’t say I’ve used in a fair few years!
“Since GameSpy’s announcement, our teams have been working to evaluate options to keep services up and running. Unfortunately, due to technical challenges and concerns about the player experience, we do not have a solution at this time. Online services for EA games on the GameSpy platform will be closed down at the end of June,” the publisher wrote in a statement.
“We know some of these games are still fan favorites, including Battlefield 2, Battlefield 1942, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault and Command & Conquer games. We are still investigating community-supported options to preserve online functionality for these titles, such as multiplayer. Significant technical hurdles remain, and at this time we don’t have anything to announce.”
Some of the biggest news is that Crysis and Crysis 2 on PC will have their doors shut, as well as a wide range of DS titles. No doubt a few of these games will shift to private servers, but for now, the official support is almost gone. Are you sorry to see a game go off of this list?
Thank you CVG for providing us with this information.
