Splashdamage Server

(Ifurita) #21

I want to see the [SD] guys on their server

(McAfee) #22

We still need a few regular servers so:

WolfET 1.02

but maybe a new patch would be nice…

(Sauron|EFG) #23

I’ve seen Digibob, Bongoboy and Rudie on there, although it’s been quite some time.

Never seen Ifurita on the server though. :eek2:

(digibob) #24

I’m on most days. Also under the name Yoshi.

im pretty sure digibob hates me :smiley:

Given that I’m connecting from California, it’s unlikely that you will. However, the SD server is in my favorites list on ASE and I do check it periodically for familiar names

I’ve played euro forum games from CA. 200 ping It’s not too bad with antilag on, though you certainly lose more 1v1s. RTCW without antilag is much harder. :moo:

Americans are spoiled, anything above 100ms is too much of a challenge to them :stuck_out_tongue: Cmon iffy, i played the US servers with 64k ISDN for 3 years with no problems :smiley:

(Ifurita) #32

OK OK, I played 3 rounds on the server today. Oasis - Goldrush

My proof of participation (including 193 ping)

i can rarely find a server with more than a ping of 100. i don’t mind at all, as long as i don’t skip around and the server has antilag.

a note to server admins: if you don’t use antilag, GO FUCK YOURSELF

(Fusen) #34

a nice plain and simple message there duke’ku … lower the slots on SD’s server and it will be more popular… lol if that can work but anyway I hate big servers more spam less skill

I agree. 12 slots is ideal, but the absolute playable max is 24, and even that is way too many for my taste. 12-16 is best. I’ve played on 60 slot servers, and when they are full, you cannot move with all the artillery. Spawn, die. Spawn, run a few feet, die. Spawn, run the other way to escape the frying pan, only to step into the fryer and die.

What fun is that? Why on earth would I waste my time being fodder for some 14 year old’s ego trip, so he can take a screenshot of his 140 kills and post it on his www.geocities.com/u83r_1337_c14nz0r website?

No thanks!

I think its fine as it is - simple game so those who dont already have the mods can play - and i like being able to just run riot killing as many as poss thanks to the number of slots - tis gud practice!

:bump:

(Brevik) #37

It seems good enough as it is, but then it’s the only place I play these days.

To be honest it’s the people there that make it the good place to play that it is (although we’re going to have to watch out for that Ifurita fellow, he looked a bit useful… :smiley: ), even if people do bicker every so often, we have a lot of good people on there, especially weekday evenings.

Some new maps would be nice, but as long as they’re good, and we don’t have them just for the sake of having something different.

As for using a mod - would it be good practice (or even fair) for Splashdamage to “endorse” one mod over the other by putting it on their server?

(Sauron|EFG) #38

I agree, and we euro noobs are so easy to kill that you still won most duels. :smiley:

I played US servers on 28.8k, and can’t say that the extra 70ms made a difference. Me --> :banghead:

(GGs today until people started lagging out…)

(pgh) #39

If you reduce the slots, then not as many players can play… hence it wont actually be as popular. Instead it wont fit as many as it can hold and players will go play else where…

And, even IF 10v10 seems alot, im sure people will agree that its still enjoyable providing theres at least 2 regs per team… and a muted nasty_mf/b5k or smt… :blah: … so hard for people too realise you just want to play a game fairly, enjoyably and relaxed like nearly everyone else… no need for the bitchin then denying it was yourself. Still, still waiting on a reply bout why I was banned that night djbob… cmon already.

I think the slots are fine at the moment. I can now see why clan games are (apparently) much smaller teams but for a public game SD has a good number for ensuring enough of your team know what to do. :wink:

More meat for the medic I say!

On the whole voting subject… no idea really. The problem with custom maps in any game is that far too few people download them (assuming it’s obvious they’re needed, which sometimes it isn’t). Only played ETPro once or twice. I like the way it maintains your XP during reconnection (something that’s very useful if you get stuck in limbo world because you forgot to up the COM_HUNKMEGS from the default… ahem…). I think we basically need more pai.
