    This is the place to post anything you would like regarding WCU TF2 install, more than likely the server is going to be wiped 100% fresh, and starting over from scratch.

     

    This is strongly a community server, what game play, maps, settings, anything and everything, suggestions please list. Also post things you definitely do not wont to see on the server.

     

    This is yalls server, YOU ALL are in control.

    Like I said last night, what ever direction you want to go is fine with me. If you still wanted to make it a 24/7 server that’s fine too.

     

    Hit me up on IRC for admin info.

    #74248

    24/7 is an option -IF- thats what you guys wont. This is not “NoDices” server.. this is you all the community server, i’m just setting it up for you. With out you the community their will not be a server, so setting it up with wide open opinions, so list them :P

    All the official maps, except the arena ones will do fine, as well as possibly a few custom maps, I don’t really have any in particular that I want right now, but not a bad idea to switch things up from the norm.

    #74278

    so was that a have all orgional maps in a rotation, or just only pick orgional maps for a rotation?

     

    My idea “if you all like rotation” was to start out small (3maps) and add more as the community grows. but that was just my idea, if everyone agrees, great, but 100% up to anything. i’ll be taking ideas for a few days before anything starts, keep’em coming

    24/7 2fort with instant respawn

    Instant respawn is *edited*. 3-5 second respawn is win.

    opinionated, but not unfounded.

     

    i personally wouldn’t mind a 2-5 second timer, if the server had 20 people in it at any time…. but considering we have NO community right now, and its NEVER full, you need instant respawn with <5 people to keep it lively. If i had to wait 5 seconds + the “screenshot” time at the end when i was 2v2 i would go crazy and leave because too much can happen then and there are plenty of other server that have the same time limit but are established so the other team can’t pull off a cap by just killing 2 people.

     

     

    Instant respawn is perfect to bring in new people. It draws the noobs (yes they are noobs but good for new servers) and these noobs will add us and keep playing because they do not realize there are bigger servers out there. Once the community is up and running, then you can add a respawn timer and infact that would be a good thing. 20+ people with instant respawn sucks, you have to have the timer, but to start out you need to have it,

    #74307

    noted

     

    most likely starting its going to be 1-3 seconds respwn, when we get community as major said, yeah we can talk about it. but starting things fresh i agree with a 1-5sec respwn timer,, leaning atm at 3seconds.

     

    keep’em coming, how are we gonna attract new members/community?

     

    Thanks for the input so far guys

    I personally would prefer a NON-24/7. I have a few on my favs, but they can get boring, particularly with only a few people on. I say a rotation is needed. I don’t play much, butonce WCU is up and has a person in it, I will join. I am down with instant respawn (or very short) at least to begin to grow the server.

     

    Also, a variety of the map styles would be nice, since some servers only play capture points, some only play push the cart. I see very few intelligence servers, but that might be because people don’t like them, I don’t know since I don’t play much (yet).

    Warpath2 is a must.

    Some other good custom maps are GrandCanyon, Vertigo, Lazytown, Aqua, and Science2.

    BlackMesa is fun too.

     

    Orange maps should be kept off, since they can end up in half-hour long stalemates and get flooded with snipers.

     

    I have the .bsp files for all of the maps above if needed.

    And to MasterP,

     

    I’m sorry,

     

    I was wrong to blame you for everything.

    Also, it would appear that I still hold my forum title of TF2 CL, which is wrong.

    I don’t quite remember my first, but I do know I love payload.

    And cramped spaces.

     

    My top 3 classes:

    Pyro

    Engie

    Medic

     

    Not necessarily in that order.

    #74530

    yes please, upload, attach or link me to maps if you would like to see them “on” the server, not necessarily in the rotation, but something that could be voted on when we get board of the same pop maps.

     

    keep the ideas coming, after the lan event this week i’ll look over all these ideas and hopefully put something together that makes everyone happy. I have a full notepad with all the things i have noticed that need to be changed/fixed, i just need to get with someone to figure out this source engine stuff works. (boy i do miss the good old hl1 engine days)

    Maybe a short like 10 min sniper only map in the rotation that is always fun. Throw that in there and I will get on there for sure.

    #75481

    send me a map and i can put it on the server for voting on, but most likely not the rotation unless alot of people like these. to be honest this is the first time iv herd of a sniper only map?

    They are out there, every class is restricted except for the sniper and the maps are custom mpas you die in the middle to keep them away from you so your forced to snipe. I will try and find a few maps so you can see what im talking about.

    I think we should keep all classes open. Letting people make their own choices is a good thing.

    ugh… that sounds a lot like an awp map…. and i bet you can guess how i feel about awp map

    yeah honestly the more noob you make the server the better if u wanna populate it .. just my opinion

    #75805

    The sniper map is just one map and im not saying it has to be in the rotation but maybe something we can vote on if people feel like playing it. It would be one map where you can only snipe. As for the awp comment I take it you get owned by people with the awp. Easiest way to deal with that is flash and run in there and they die.

    24/7 2fort, fast respawn. The server will populate fast and we can change things around once we get a regular tf2 community playing.
