If anyones here hop on the server

Winning Hand · 04-03-2006 11:23AM

Might pop on for a few rounds this evening. Look out for SuitsYou

How do people feel about the server as a 64 man. I typically find that the most muppetry goes on on a 64 man server. Add to that the lag induced by larger maps and it tends to ruin the game.

Personally I feel the server runs better at say 48 man slots, plenty for the community here, and also less lag etc.

Add to that 32 player maps and the odd 16 player map and you will have a lot more fun.

Have a think.

Aye I agree, just nicer all round. I'll get a few of ye's together on Sunday evening and we'll sort out admin.

Wavey · 04-03-2006 12:01PM

Yep, I would aggre with that. 64 player maps always seem to attract a certain type of fckuwit!

40 to 50 woud be plenty ide say.

As soon as the number went above 40 lastnight i thought the quality of game dropped.

Also would boards users have any say in the map rotation? Or will that be up to whatever admin is present?

Berns · 04-03-2006 12:20PM

Am guessin it would be just the whole map rotation. If a number of people didnt like some maps I'm sure they could be removed. But if started havin admin change it all the time it would be annoying & people might not want to change map every couple of minutes or play one repetativly.

Am startin to think it might be better about 40. Origionally missed the 64 man but it does really need admin 24/7. Plus if usin 64 man maps with less people they do last longer & more chance of getting the badges / ribbons etc :rolleyes:
Smaller maps prob wouldn't last as long so thinkin should stick till 64 maps.

TheHairyFairy · 04-03-2006 12:54PM

Yes boards.ie people can decide on a map rotation. Myself or Lucutus will be the only ones who can change the main settings on the server, or add maps into / take maps out of the rotation.

Any of the new boards.ie admins can then change the order of the maps, change next map, move on to the next map etc.

If no one objects I'll run the server with 48 player slots and 32 player maps.

Zillah · 04-03-2006 11:03PM

Yes exactly. I got to kick a few base rapers today

Winters · 05-03-2006 12:48AM

BF2CC really sucks. I honestly dont understand why EA/DICE used it over BlackBag Op's. Id have taken BBOp's anyday.

SeantheMan i love your sig, but id change it before a sigpo rep sees it, no animated sigs, just giving ya a heads up.

EDIT: I see someone has already seen it

Ziycon · 05-03-2006 07:55PM

Just played two games on it there, good fun, and a lot of teamwork which is always good to see!

Russell_Sprout · 05-03-2006 08:27PM

can i be adminz?

Scruff · 06-03-2006 11:48AM

great idea this, fairly to HairyFairy and TiG.
now that p.c. if fixed i'll pay a visit tonight (hopefully)

spooky donkey · 06-03-2006 10:40PM

BTW fairy nice one on this server. I was on yesterday in my Bro`s house and had a ping of 6. I still cant play in it with my crappy IBB connection but some day i will have another ISP.
I see there are 43 on there now according to xfire, id love to be on there now killing. Good move and good to see an Irish server seeing some action I will be on as often as I can when I get proper BB from some one else me thinks.

Good move lads.

Scruff · 07-03-2006 10:23AM

was on int last night but only for less than 5 mins. Had to stop as altough my ping was less than 16 i was experiencing some drastic frame rate. Presume it was only me having that problem...? pc mustn't be as fixed as i thought it was...

SeantheMan · 07-03-2006 12:29PM

Yeah, really appreciate yous setting this up.
Ill throw a small donation your way soon :rolleyes:

And i dont think it was just you scruff, my other PC was gettin for a bit, and so was a mate who i was on vent with at the time. Only seems to happen since the 1.2 patch though:eek:

Vegeta · 07-03-2006 01:15PM

I was gettin this thing last night where i couldn't spawn on some spawn points. If i clicked on them nothing would happen. It was on the TIG server. Very annoyingly on another server I was coming first, in line for a gold medal and my comp crashed, there were ony seconds left. I got the silver though
