So BTP is a worms site, dedicated to worms and anything else us wormers deem neccessary for talking about :P

But as worms moves 3D, less and less of customization, maps and so forth are available.

Where does this leave BTP in a few years time? Where do YOU think it could go? will we still be at these forums some time next year? Some members come and go, but others such as C1, Pope, Harry etc have stayed, even though as the months pass, many of us play worms leass and less.

So Zog, i guess in the end its up to you, but where does yourself and the rest of the admin and of course the community see this site in a fe years time? who knows?

Redbull gives you wings!

I think some of us will still be around, there will probably be newer members that are as active as we are now.
I think I might still be active this time next year, who knows. And of course all the adminastrators will probably still be here. So probably we will still be here in a year. Now in 2 years....that might be a different story.

With the huge hits everyday, I wouldn't be surprised if Zog adopted another game to talk about.

So yes, Worms will probably die out soon, but I'll stay around; I haven't played it in around a month though...

Starcraft seems popular among alot of the members but I've yet to play it. Although as it's going for £8 at play.com, I may well pick it up.

If anything, btp won't disappear, it'll just evolve. The domain name is applicable to any game (2D ones moreso than 3D) and the content of the site can easily be adapted by the topnotch list of admins.

Perhaps even two different versions of the site. A worms site and then some other game. But if the site was to change, the game I'd like it to focus on would probably be Half Life 2 :D


Perhaps it won't be about games anymore. A webcomics centre would be cool, or even some pixel art based online mmo game.

Whatever happens, btp will be around for a very long time.

The 2d worms games are not necessarily going to die. even if the 3d worms games come and allow less customization, i think w:a & wwp have still some years to live. The w:a patches prove it, and t17's project to merge the two wormnets indicate IMO that the 2d worms game are already considered as classics.
And classics never die...
It's just like lemmings, or old computers emulation, as long as there is a community, and even more if there is a website to allow members to chat/post about it, the games carry on being played, whatever is made after it. Even if the wormnets servers were closed one day, projects like wn3/pope's server would still allow us to play, if people come to it.
So i think btp should carry on, whatever t17 does.

Yeah, but what if WN3 still is W:A only and leaves the WWP players stranded?

I think btp is going to last longer than that. W:a is going to die in less than a year.

BTP won't ever die. Why you ask? Because I'm here now :P. W:A probably isn't going to die any time soon, it will probably stop being made sometime in the near future, but at Deadcode's current pace, the 4.0 final probably won't be out for 2+ years now. And maybe, just *maybe*, T17 will finally release that dammed level editor for W3D (hahahahaha, yeah, right :roll: ) and then we won't have this problem with running out of new resources.
And besides, if everything else goes to pot, we always have BlameTheGeneralOffTopic to keep us warm at night XD.

Nope. W:a is already dying. Less and less people are on. A lot of the "old" and "good" clans are dying off. SFX is getting fairly inactive, and a lot of other clans are too. As well, RRP is pretty much dead, and MwC is planning to break up later next year.

I think W:A will die 5 years after the 4.0 patch is released.
