You can find an active community server, covering Battlezone: Combat Commander as well as Battlezone 98 Redux and the original games, at https://discord.gg/zTQ9P6C.

I left the Discord a couple of weeks ago. There is so much garbage being posted in some channels and even though I'm at the PC every day, I still miss the bulk of chat messages because they are all one-line messages with barely any constructive conversation (people mainly post when they are bored). If BZ Combat Commander is being intelligently discussed, I'll be right back. I haven't played BZ II since 2001-2002 when I was 12 years old

You do realize that the discord server is split up into the different chat channels it is so you can mute any room you don't care about, yes? This point is explicitly stated in the top of the #announcements room you join into. I don't know what you really expect to have there; do you want every single chatline to be of value to you? If that's the case you're not going to really find anywhere that fits your requirements for anything.

There's a #very-off-topic room explicitly to contain off topic chatter so those who don't care about it can have it muted. The game specific channels are full of game specific content, from people calling others out to prove their skill to in depth discussion about how to achieve certain modding results or show of said results.

The chatlink channels connect to the BZ2 and BZ98 Redux in game chat lobby are broken up into a a few separate channels so you can mute the rooms that contain nothing but "joined/left chat" messages. The #bz98redux-server-events channel is full of game start and end notices and is explicitly listed in #announcements that you will want to mute it.

The goal is to have an active community with lots of conversation and content generation. In reaching that goal you are not going to be able to read every chatline. I have to say that leaving a discord server because every chatline doesn't have value for you when the alternative is a relatively dead server is pretty pedantic.

Of course BZCC is being discussed. Sadly I can't discuss it much myself because I'm a beta tester and I have to double check everything I say is publicly indicated or I can't say it. So far there's been a lot of screenshot comparisons and ogling of the improved map visuals and details.

I understand where he's coming from. Discord like all open forums do get off topic, and folks rant. But this Discord server allows knowledgeable individuals on the subjects to get alerts on their phones when a question pops up. And sure there is other sites, but the community is big and it very easy to be a part of it. Plus, heck practicality everyone has discord these days.

If there's any issues let me or the moderators know and we'll get it sorted. We might add some notification roles or something.

So, Discord...

Are you needing the URL? Not sure the context of your comment.

[Suicidal Sniper]

I wasn't sure if his comment was disapproval of a discord server being used, him asking for the address, or just acknowledging a discord server exists.

[Red_Devil]

Sorry, I was just, *cough*, so'ing Discord. ;-p

xD guys he's making a postive and funny intended remark, lets leave it at that. This discord server was created not long ago... with the intention of uniting and to have an active battlezone community(yes everything what nielk1 said). it has been working really well and i'm really happy about it. Ur free to make any questions or suggestions about it.

[Nielk1]

This was the first thing on my Google Search for "Communities" on Discord.

So is it active for each version to specify the Switch Version?

[DustRider]

All 3 versions, yes. It covers the base game and is not specfic to a platform.

[Katherlyn]

What a necro tho
