So when a single-player game, patch's in a modification to play Multi-player, and it also makes availible the Software Developement Kit, it seems apparent the use of the game is how players choose to develope it.
The Single Player experience makes an emphasis on the use of Augmentations. Some could therefore consider the original mode of play for Deus Ex: Multiplayer as full augmentation and skill developement Deathmatch.
Sooner or later a version of DXMP came without AUGS and the removal of availible weapons and skill upgrades. Some would consider this a step back in the gameplay, others who caught on began to experience something different from this.
A game which makes availible the freedom to develope it, dictates that the player who plays it should have complete freedom to play it the way they choose to play it.
What happens when people restrict others to play only one gametype? People who have had choice to play what they want, are now constricted to play how they are told to play. On an internet game, you don't have to take any obuse. People quit if they don't like what they are being forced to play.
A member of the Deus Ex community has done such a thing. Through illegally disabling the use of "0-AUG" servers, via spamming the servers with DDOS IP's and such, the technicality is beyond me, the point is its illegal and its definitely him. His online Alias is DeJaVu.
His demands were that if people wanted to play 0-AUGS, they discontinue to host through the Gamespy masterserver, the only availible and originally coded into the game itself server. People can use other masterservers, however what it limits is that players need to be informed to change the code to accomodate for this.
Some have given in to his demands, but the point is, Dejavu does not make the rules, he does not control the game, and he will certainly not control this community because of his own twisted thoughts. People rebel, and this is the proof.
The result of his attack has spawned a counter-attack, something I saw as not a good solution to the problem. Dejavu has stated that he would prefer to see No Servers availible, instead of both 0-AUG and AUG servers availible, thus killing off the ability to play DXMP and the community which enjoys it.
I'm not asking you to take sides, AUG or Zero-AUG, your thoughts on which mode is better is irrelevant. The whole issue is choice, people choose how they want to play, and if you believe that what is happening is robbing those of their choice to enjoy a game then you should sign here. If you do not condone what has happened with these attacks you should sign here. And lastly, if you really want to make a difference, if you really want to help the community, because the more people who want to play, the more chance we will have to keep this community alive, you really should be signing here.
DXMP is important to me, my view has always been about what a game is supposed to be about, fun. You remove the capability you remove the choice. Don't take the fun out of DX.
Thank you

- The criminal DejaVu and his supporters have no business telling us what we can and cannot play. Those who play 0 Aug Deus Ex have a good reason for it, and should not have to answer to some jumped up gangster. Official Statement of the Round Table Court of MADZ.

- I don't play anymore, so I guess I shouldn't be involved in this. I'm really signing this because it's a discrimination against freedom of preferrence. And being an American, I do not take this too kindly.

- It is not up to you to decide what is best for Deus Ex. You did not create the game, or whatsoever. Let the game be as it is. If you need to change it so badly, do it on another way, but not on this. This is currently fastening the death of Deus Ex, which is probably not what you wanted. So DejaVu, stop, while you still can.

- Deja.... This game is basicly dead, you know yourself it's not that amusing anymore. Take your "Hacking Skills" to somewhere no one will be offended or hurt. Please leave the DX community (and Online Games in general) alone, thanks =)

- Deja Vu has always been an a$$hole. I'm supprised that it took the community so long to figure this out. He pretend to be your buddies while trying to get enough information from you guys to try to Kill DX.Whiplash, love your comment. This shows a change in your attitude from when you were trying to control how GODZSERVER was being run instead of creating your own server. Your actions against the realistic rifle began this mess I am very glad to see that you have finally seen the light.Reclaimer, I agree with your comment.Please prove to me I'm wrong about this but... I think its to late for DX I think Deja Vu has damaged it to badly for it to survive even if he stoped his attackes on servers today.GODZSERVER was keeping the community alive. This is to little to late.

- The option to play DXMP without augs has existed from the start. It is PART OF THE GAME, get over it. And what of mods? You don't (yet) attack my mod, but why not? By your flawed logic, it isn't part of the original game design so it does not deserve to exist! This is a pointless and counterproductive effort which, I believe has nothing to do with an attempt to bring DX to how it used to be. It is merely a selfish, childish grab for power and control, which is not rightfully yours. Get lost. We are free to play what games we like. If you continue to ruin DX, we will just play something else.

- This would all stop maybe if someone would contact the school he's hosting the servers at and report him... Who invited Player_13? Excuse me I mean NoChanc.

- An attack such as this will only lead to the total demise of the entire game. It solves nothing, it merely destroys.

- I'm not really sure what to put, but this isnt right even if this game died a long time ago. Been with it from the start, not so much recently. I hope it works out for the guys who believe in this still. But im sure now its time for me to move on, peace. Long live [AOD]!!!

- This will just get people to leave Deus Ex, it will not make people switch to Aug-gaming. To use a phrase from DX; you can't fight ideas with bullets.
