Source has far better lag compensation than 1.6, so laggy players don’t interrupt gameplay very much. I would say leave it at 400.

I would say that it does, but I see players in the 250-400 range that are huge lag issues.

Some are fine, some are not.

bold is my reply, i’d also like to hear form others

1: Map voting needs to go. There’s nothing worse than playing Office,Dust, and Dust2 in rotation of each other. Leave Mani set to allow “extend” voting, but the map choice random if not extended.

if their is not a map vote, then all teh maps have no choice to be in rotation…?

It was my understanding that the selection could be randomized.

2: Friendly fire. This is a controversial one, but it’s my personal preference to have it on. Forces players to think smarter and keeps the nade/spray down. Besides, Mani has tons of built in options to take care of greifers.

I know their are plent of mods that take care of team killing, however it gets extremly annoying when you keeped getting TK’ed. also spaming is part of teh fun

Not a big issue, more of a personal preference. =)

3: Open the map set up a bit to include cbbl, Havana, etc.

I liek that

 

4: Set a ping limit of 200.

I like that

 

5: Consider looking into the mod which locks you in 1st person on a teammate and disallows seeing the other team on minimap when dead. This one’s kind-of minor, though, as it takes away a lot from spectating after death.

This is a Pub, not an official cal match or anything, i liek watching other users. as long as they can not speak or type there the other players are (aka ghosting) i dont see anything wrong with it.

Yeah, a minor thing like the ff that I don’t feel -too- strongly about.

 

6: The biggest one is that the bot AI -has- to go down a notch. I realize that the bots could lack challenge for high-ability players, but to everyone I speak with they’re just extremely frustrating. On their current settings they wallhack repeatedly, and do all sorts of other nasty things. Additionally, it’s pretty gimp for the CTs as the bots have to be micromanaged while you’re being hunted.

I dont consider myself a pro or anything but i did liek how the bots were set. yes sometime its ridiculous but when their is less than 4 people in the server is teh only time bots are in their. i liek teh pratice. but maby can could be turned down a notch.. but not too much…

It’s just -highly- aggravating, like you said, when it’s you vs 2 or more bots. It’s not that they’re difficult, they’re cheap.

 

7: Keep hosting this awesome server! We all really appreciate it!

keep making post, and the server full and its gonna stay up

To conclud i have not been able to play the server but a few times (maby 8hr’s or so total) i’m new to the entire HL2 engine and the game that are supported. however you will see me more and more in their, whenever adambomb gets his net back up and i can no longer use his account…

Appreciate the thoughts!!
