Hobbes Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Where is the option for "Players"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandium Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 And if you don't even play there, just don't even vote. Nerds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UN4M3D Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I would like to see a permban hobbes voting system added, 50 needed and your vote doesn't get removed if you leave the server. I did vote to keep it empty but I change to friendly fire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HD Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 To have that many people in the server and have FF on would lead to people constantly teamkilling. Someone accidently flashes/blocks someone and they'll do gay shit like shoot them down to a low HP for however many rounds in a row. An admin would constantly need to be in the server to have FF on and have it work. I actually don't think anything is wrong with the server the way it is right now, HG members just need to work on playing in it more to rebuild the playerbase it had before the IP was changed. You could do stupid shit just to make it a little different. I've only seen it in a couple of servers, but have it where when a T plants the bomb he can choose a wire that will lead to a quick defuse, and if the CT chooses the right wire he gets the defuse instantly, and if he chooses the wrong one it blows up in his face. You could also set it up to where if it happens to end up being 1v1, you can have it force the players to knife it out, and then reward the winning player with HP and a slight speed increase for the following round. Just dumb shit like that to make it a little different than all of the other 24/7 dust2s out there. I also see servers that seem to always be full with no awp/autosnipers for whatever reason, so you could always try that out. But like I said, i don't feel changing anything is necessary, but you could try adding those things and I guess making it 16k to keep people who die all the time from leaving the server.

vandium Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 I have played full servers with FF and unlimited awps, and had very few tk's. There are scripts that prevent tkers from doing damage without being injured or killed themselves. We have enough admins in the server to remove the few losers. But the losers will leave on their own when they can't even play a round. You build our player base, and then I will see where you are coming from. Our server has been empty for 3 months or more. Even when we join, it never fills. We can always adjust the slots as well. But doing nothing is not helping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HD Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Adding those scripts would do a lot in preventing tking, so if FF is something you really wanted to give a shot then I'm all for it. I'm not saying building a player base is easy, because it's not. If I could fill the server with people I would, all I was saying is that more people from HG would need to join and play in there on a regular basis to help fill it up and keep people in there. Changing the name of the server may help. Just having Hellsgamers in the name of the server generally seems to help fill them and keep them filled, so maybe change the name to something like all the other servers. 24/7 Dust2 |16k| HeLLsGamers.com or whatever. That in itself is simple and would be worth trying. There are plenty of things that wouldn't be hard to implement/change that could help improve the server population. I'd start with the name change and see how that does, 16k should help instantly (there's a script where it gives everyone 16k every round so there's no need to go spec for cash) and instead of a 4 awp limit I think 3 would be better if you were going to change it, 1 awp per site and 1 mid for the cts.

I Love Lamp Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 We had ff on a few weeks ago. At first, everyone was tking each other a lot, but gradually, as they got used to it, the TKs almost disappeared completely. I think overall ff promotes a higher quality of play, in that you cant blindly prefire around corners or lob nades anywhere you want.

Wingless Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 We had ff on a few weeks ago.

I think overall ff promotes a higher quality of play, in that you cant blindly prefire around corners or lob nades anywhere you want. I think FF was working pretty well when we had it running. As far as those that repeatedly wound enough to not die themselves, well, it becomes pretty obvious what's happening, and those people get a swift banning. No matter how many times we're running at 10 or 20 people on server, the population never seems to stick. Anything to make it NOT a plane jane D2 server like the 100s of others would be great, and in my book, FF is the biggest thing to change without leaning on things that could be thought of as gimmicky. (voted for 16k and FF) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobbes Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I was enjoying the FF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandium Posted July 8, 2009 Author Share Posted July 8, 2009 16k and FF would help out a lot. We did it for one day. It worked well, but we didn't keep it on more than that day to see if it was working. I only voted for more awps, because many people can't buy them because people script and bind them. The only people who complain about the awp are the ones who can't use it. But they can't use it or learn to use it in our server....if they can't buy it. :x Be about it Lamp. I also agree on changing the name, or else that other stuff doesn't matter. Because it does look like a plain jane D2 server. And they don't know its an HG server and that we have it moderated constantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Headshot Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I dont feel like reading everyones post, but heres my thought. Leave it $800. I love pistol round and I dont want to start with 16k. It sucks. FF - yes. It makes people watch where they shoot. 4 awps, even know I love awps, is too much. Maybe perm. 2 awps? no switching from 1 to 2? Those are my thoughts.

But yeah, the first (or first few) rounds at stock money is my preference. A good pistol round every so often is nice. 4 awps is pushing it. That's a lot of obnoxious at once, especially since the way things are looking, money won't be hard to come by. 2 awps forever, I can deal with.

So would there be a way to code it where the first 3 rounds are pistol and on the 4th round and every round there after players are given 16k?

CantBeFaded Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 as far as pistol round goes why cant we script it like office? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
