Public Server Changes…..

Post by I.D.O. »

Definite changes for the CTF Server:
FF On
Add a new map
Will try the new mapcycle again

Possible Changes:

Add Real Damage
Disable OSP 3G Bugfixes
Enable the client side of OSP

I will try and put whatever changes we decide on up with in the next week. Please post your feedback or ideas in this tread.

personally i'm not a big fan of the ff idea.... i guess it may be a majority thing, but i've noticed people have tended to leave when i've turned it on in the past.
bug fixes matter not to me.... but i wouldn't mind having the clientside enabled- has a few nice features that seem to be helpful.
new maps are a great plan!!
and the real dmg matters not to me- it has its ups and downs, so either way i wont complain!
cs_assault seemed like a half decent map, not sure about any others as i haven't been playing this game as long as many others

Hmmm....keep M4 fix but maybe remove shotty fix to bring back some of the old regs. who left over it. I like RD and have been playing it more than our server recently but it may not be popular with most regulars.

Maps, I have dled some but I need to check them for bugs before i'll suggest them.
Time stops for no-one. Why should I?

Fixes, don't matter to me because i use the shotty anyways. RD i think would cause much more complaining on the server, i know that when I played nuggs Inf the other night it was annoying that it took 2 ak shots to the chest and i was dead within 20 seconds of the round. Don't know much about the maps, but if there is a few hidey holes for me and my sniper rifle then you won't hear a complaint from me.

I don't really care about having ff on all the time in ctf but if it is will the people in the guild be banned for what ever length of time you set or are we excluded from being banned. And I am not looking to go nuts on the TKing just for all that are wondering. I am ready for new maps to play also. As far as fixing the shottie don't matter to me I changed to the uzi for close combat. One map that is kinda cool is beach invasion I am pretty sure sof files has it among other good ones

taz- being admin pretty much makes u a god amongst men- tk matters not. u can't be booted for it. if you dont have admin yet then you will soon i'm sure- you've been in clan for 30 days haven't u?
for those not in guild i think after 4 tk's you're gone..... so not really too bad.

I believe that the original thinking for the addition of FF was preparation for competition. Anyone who has been playing this game for long can adapt to FF on or off, in my opinion, so the primary question becomes one of server "likeability" for our regulars. Either way is fine for me; I have no preference.

Bug fixes, although excellent for thinning the crouch lean herd, seems to have caused a number of regulars to abandon the server. If our concern is to keep the server populated, I would think that taking the bug fixes off would go a long way to accomplishing this goal. We would just have to remember when encountering the crouch leaner, that we consciously brought it on ourselves. :)

New maps and/or mapcycles are always welcome in an effort to keep things lively. If we have intentions of competing in the 8 v 8 CTF division of TWL, I would encourage the discussion of including a random desert within the mapcycle to aclimate us to this environment.

This has been my random thought clutter for the day. I hope you've enjoyed it as much as I've enjoyed bringing it to you.

I am (crouch) leaning (hehe) to turning bug fixes off and just setting up a policy of warning and then kicking crouch leaners. We can leave FF OFF but an option to turn on for the admins as it is today. I personally like FF. Also RD is on my list if people want it. The game is so near it's end I don't think it matters. Please wrap up your suggestions soon. So I can put the changes into effect.

People still play this cheater hackfest of a game?

Wait, they're all like that. <sigh>

Played Enemy Territory, same thing except on steroids.

So for me, it comes down to BF1942. After the 1.45 patch 2 days ago, this game is DAMN fun. The little things that drove me nuts are fixed, and what beats plowing through enemy lines in a tank? MORE TANKS! Anyone with me?

PHX should hook this up some Thursday night or Sunday or whatever and give it a shot. FUN.

Oh and I'm sorry this is off topic, guess you're just gonna have to kill me

I would like to pick up Battlefield. Lots of cool mods for it. Just need ppl you know to play with or I find it gets boring (ppl always vehicule camping, never let you on, etc.)

As for the CTF server, I would like to see RD and FF on. Also, the client based OSP so I can have my little clock at the corner of the screen :silly:

*EDIT*

FYI, I dont think the monthly stats are updating like there supposed to. Not a stat whore *cough* WildBill *cough*, I just check them from time to time.
