[NooB]-Clan

Happy Bday NF!

since 2002 there is a community who plays james bond 007: nightfire online.

the last 15 years were sometimes more, sometimes less fun. there were times when more than 30 players played at the same time on a server.
a lot of clans were created, a lot left the game or fusioned into others. there were clanwars and scrims organised and even a league was formed.
most of the older players will remember the nice fights on the dutch union servers. there were also some fun servers like norulez or ashleys playground. other servers were for example extreme, neutrals vs neutrals or nopjump-servers. we shouldnt even forget servers like ezpz, mderms, only best players or happy place.

But there were bad times too, especially the time around 2011 was one of the biggest crisis in nf. almost all 24/7-servers were down. there were many reasons: the hosters didnt have enough motivation to pay and work for their servers alone, the community was criticized for being inactive and not supporting the servers they use. then 2012 active players started to reactivate the game, good servers came back and some older players were recruited. a new league that started in october 2012 was one result of this process. even when it wasnt a big success, the re-opening of servers and the try of reactivating clans and scrims was an important step to keep the nf community alive.

summer 2014 was a big catastrophe for nightfire: ea games stopped supporting the server browser. thanks to a nightfire patch its still possible to connect to servers, but of course since now it was more difficult to win new people for the online multiplayer mod.

in 2015 there started the project nightfire source, a game based on the original nightfire game that will be released on the source-engine. many old nightfire-players are part of the nightfire source developer-team. parallel still many players play the original game.

now, 2017, its time to say thanks to the community! thanks to all, noobs and pros, but especially to the active players and supporters. without them this game would have been died years agos.

there are many active players, who created websites, clans, mods, maps and other stuff -> special thanks to all of you too ;) but of course we shouldnt forget: the most active players alone didnt save the game. good servers are senseless when nobody is playing there. creating mods, websites etc. is senseless, when nobody is using them. so at least there can only be a big thanks to the whole nf community, all people who still play this game! See ya all in game ;)

Most of you already recognized it: In ctf_Romania was added a new feature. There is on every Base near the flag a helicopter. The players can fly and shoot rockets with it.

Discuss in our forum how you think about the Helicopter

Howdy-Ho NooBs,

we have great news: There is a new Nightfire-Website online, called jbnf.info. Check it out :)
The other thing is, that a new Romania-Map with Christmas-Style was published. It was already hosted on some servers and it looks very nice:

Baggy created this cool video where he jumps through the map while a timer is counting his time (map designer can download the timecounter here). Enjoy:

06/05/2014 Server Browser News

EA Games said that Nightfire will have one more month the gamespy server-browser-support. So at the end of June it will be all over now, baby blue.

But there are new possibilities to keep the Nightfire online-gaming alive.

First thing everyone can do is writing a comment on EA-website or in their customer support forum. EA writes:

"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."

Oh what a shame, they forgot in their list of gamespy-shutdown-affected games the fan favourite James Bond:Nightfire!!!
So lets all remember EA to investigate for our game. Ask them if they try to find solutions for the future of Nightfire online server-browser. The more people write them the more EA will see that there still is a big interest in this game.

In the case that EA wont be active, there are 2 other solutions. One is already named on this site, you will have to write the IP-adress of servers in future manually. We still collect IP-adresses of servers for those people who want to choose this way in future. So if you are a server-host and want that people play there after end of june, please contact us so that we can publish the IP-connection here.

The second solution is downloading a new Nightfire-Patch. It will connect you automatically to a new master-server who lists all Nightfire-servers then. Download the patch and find more informations here.

05/22/2014 Bnfpe-IP-adress

May 31 is near and Gamespy support for Nightfire server-browser will end then, as you all know. Luckily bnfpe-server is online again. It seems that you will be able to join it after May 31 by connecting to this IP-adress:
173.234.63.50:26015
or
173.234.63.50:6550

04/20/2014 Nightfire Server Browser will be down May 31, 2014

Howdy Community, we have bad news. On May 31 2014 Gamespy will shut down and this affects our game James Bond 007 Nightfire. The server-list in multiplayer mode wont show the online servers anymore. The list will look as empty as on this picture:

Actually there is only one solution to join servers after may 31 if they still will be hosted. You will have to enter the IP adress of the server manually.

How do you know the IP of a server? Actually thats the biggest problem. We dont know which servers will still be hosted after may 31 and the famous bnfpe-server shut down this month. At the moment we only know that the server "happy place" will still be online. The hoster will send you the IP-adress of the server when you contact him:
happyplacenightfire [at] yahoo.com

We keep you up to date if there will be other possibilities to join the servers.
