    Hey @HerbertFreir, I've randomly come across this post. It's a common thing in pretty much every online game that people will flame each other. All it is is a coping mechanism so they must not admit they made a mistake themselves. It's really just the easy way out for being anonymous on the internet. There is no way of saying this is common or uncommon across a community as a whole as it's mostly invididual. Estimating how often it will happen to you is nearly impossible. Sometimes you will be flamed three times a day, sometimes it won't happen for two years straight. But there is a tendency: The bigger and the younger (on average) the community the more likely it is that people will flame, as they don't expect to bump into the other one ever again. FAF is a small, "well aged" community, and therefore less likely to be that way, as you for sure will bump into someone again. What usually helps is narrowing down the amount of anonymity to a minimum by playing with people you know through joining smaller clans / communities. I, for instance, happen to run a beginners group within the FAF Dojo. It's me and my co-trainer running training sessions with up to a dozen trainees (0-1300 rated) three times a week, in the EU evening hours. Our youngest trainee is ~20 years old, our oldest is ~60 years old. We have gay / trans people, furries... We welcome everyone and respect each other. It's about having fun and learning together. If the above is appealing to you and you could make (some of) the training hours, feel free to join our Discord server and reach out to me. If you can not make my specific training hours, please still feel free to join, meet people you could play with, and maybe find another trainer that matches your time zone.

    Have you secured your Discord account since the incident? What steps have you taken to make sure it cannot be used for malicious activity again?

    Thanks for your replies, I tested Eternal Strategic Icons, in combination with Penguin's Icon Mod and ACU Highlight (those three mods seem to be compatible), and it looks a lot nicer with the size increase of 150%

    open the file "Game.prefs". mostly located in: C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Local\Gas Powered Games\Supreme Commander Forged Alliance\Game.prefs open the file and search for "ui_scale" change the line so it looks like: ui_scale = 1, save it; start the game.

    @magge said in Can't play cuz of BSOD: @magge said in Can't play cuz of BSOD: You need to check Windows error logs, they will help more in this case. The only thing i got is Error code: 0x00000116 and it says only that videodriver doesn't get response from videocard in time. @not-4z0t said in Can't play cuz of BSOD: Can only suggest to update video drivers or buy a new video card tried at latest drivers and at january release drivers. Still happens. I can't just buy new card for laptop, it will be already used and may be more faulty. This is just funny that i have no issues with cyberpunk, but game from 2007 kill my laptop

    The server had a short hiccup. Should work again. If it does not, then reply with what you are trying to do that causes the error to happen.

    Are you using family share? If a family member owns the game you can still play it. But you can't verify ownership.

    CPU rating 335. Explosions are lacking. And I can't also see napalm from bombers. It's just damaging my units but it's invisible.

    @skyhawk said in does anyone Linux FAF Gamers use this: dgVoodoo ?: Also, I have no idea what that appnee.com link is, it looks like a malware/spam site to me as all it does is beg me to turn off popup blockers and then redirect me around the world. giving a link to this site didn't mean anything wrong. there was a description and links to YouTube with illustrative examples of setup and operation. I have the u block plugin installed in my browser and it probably filtered everything out. your link to the deege website is definitely more useful. I will delete the link in the comment so that no one has any problems.
