    I'm currently thinking of a Tribes2 server.

    As always no CS rubbish.

    be the first Irish server to have Quake 3 Fortress Beta2?

    from my inside sources (m8 is developer) the mod should be released either this weekend or pretty damn soon afterwards. I got sneaky peaky at it over in England during Christmas and it looks pretty damn sweet. Once again team fortress will be played on what it is meant to be played on, the quake engiene.

    have a think about it cos the mod could really catch on big time...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 514 ✭✭✭noog


    How about something new, and never tried before :o

    Some Suggestions:

    Goldeneye
    Laser Mod
    Water Wars


    they're just ones that *sounded* interesting, i've only played goldeneye, havent played the other two.

    Post your comments, or slag me off, dont mind :p


    - noog

    p.s - they're HL mods


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,446 ✭✭✭✭amp


    Stuck. Will stick the poll when it's posted. Have no suggestions for games as I gave up playing on-line as:

    1: I'm shíte.
    2: My connection is shíte.
    3: I was forever heart broken when [KCD] broke up.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,396 ✭✭✭✭kaimera


    1) How about MoH ???

    2) Desert Crisis -HL mod

    3) More DoD!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,346 ✭✭✭Rev Hellfire


    Whatever is suggested here will be added to the poll tomorrow, I'll start it early saturday and close it on saturday evening

    Jedi Knight 2?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,333 ✭✭✭Celt


    DoD 2.1 will be having 30 player servers, MORE DOD!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,576 ✭✭✭Kairo


    Tribes 1 (Definately not 2)

    It's about the only game I'd like to see a proper irish server of, as it's about the only game I can actually manage to play on 56k. :tired:

    For 56k friendlyness pick tribes

    Theres also another option...

    www.kaillera.com

    Can run aload of old emulated games. Anyone for Street Fighter Online? :) Also very 56k friendly.

    Think of the narrowbanders!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,046 ✭✭✭Dustaz


    Tribes 1 :)

    Failing that JK2 or Kyros Emulator proggie - ARE YOU KEN online:)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,346 ✭✭✭Rev Hellfire


    Vote closes tonight, short I know but such are the breaks.

    I'm removing Tribes 1 from the poll since you'll be getting a server for that soon enough.

    Original thread assimilated with Poll.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,275 ✭✭✭Shinji


    Oh god, not MoH. I really hope whoever voted for that hasn't actually played it multiplayer, or is taking the mick, because it's bloody awful online... (The singleplayer is still godly though.)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 514 ✭✭✭noog


    Kyro: i just put up a kaillera server, i dont have a clue what it does but it didn't look very memory hungry so i thought 'why not' :-)

    It's currently running at:
    kaillera.ath.cx:27888

    Enjoy.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 939 ✭✭✭Zyox


    ok, i know i was pimping Q3f earlier and all, but in the end i didn't vote for it.

    basically because i can't play it atm and its usually gay with ping of over 100. i voted for goldeneye because i have the mod installed, ive played it a bit and found it ok. its poo, buts it all i have really and that i prefer out of selection

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,031 ✭✭✭El Marco


    I voted tribes 2, but i know if it does go up it'll be taken down soon after, since the community in ireland is kak :(

    It'd be great if everyone just gave it a try, all the muppets are gone !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 849 ✭✭✭Cr8or

    I'm removing Tribes 1 from the poll since you'll be getting a server for that soon enough.

    Ah yes, unlike if it had been a Jedi Knight 2 server - in which case it would have served the useful role of proving to everyone that yes, the netcode does suck, and hey, the game itself sucks online - allowing them to get on with their lives confident in the knowledge that they have tried JK2 online and will never again wish to go back to it.

    Man we all have our own opinions -
    Out of all the mods which was available Goldeneye was picked and in my opinion the server has gone to waste.
    If you dont like jk2 then you can go off & stroke your bishop , I have goldeneye installed and it is a good game but I dont see the server lasting with Goldeneye installed


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,576 ✭✭✭Kairo


    Tribes 1 server assured? Super Noodle hosts Kaillera? (thanks buddy) My work here is done. :)

    I'll check out the kaillera server when I go home..you have to set it to specific games, mind.

    If you don't like goldeneye then you can go off & stroke your bishop. ta.


    p.s the goldeneye server isn't going ahead because of the lack of updated linux server files.


  • Users Awaiting Email Confirmation Posts: 15,001 ✭✭✭✭Pepe LeFrits


    jk2 runner up ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,714 ✭✭✭conZ


    ffs, run another poll so....
    jk2 sucks ass... was lookin 4ward 2 goldeneye:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,446 ✭✭✭✭amp


    Ah right so, poll over. Stop whinging you bitches. Unstickied.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,346 ✭✭✭Rev Hellfire


    Boo fúckin hoo.
    Its hardly a waste of a server to run the game which gets the most votes, as it happened Goldeneye wasnt an option in the end, so the offer for the next server was open. But not one single person who vote for Jedi Knight offered a loan of their disk so I could upload the required files note the 'Jedi Knight 2 - Someone needs to loan me the disk (orginal only)'. Dont bítch and moan if you're not going to help setup a server you want. The Quake 3 guys got there server because they offered me the required files and loads of assistance setting up the server for them.

    Depending on the outcome of the DOD patch I may concider starting another server.

    So therefore the next most popular server was put up which was Tribes2.
