ET Server Suggestion Suggestions Beg. 2 server

[Dingus]

Okey for bot amount, we will keep it as it is now. Server name is Beginner and we should keep one server in our clan where is more bots, so new players can learn. We had more bots in jay2 year or two ago and server was very popular close to Jay1. Now not anymore, its empty too often and popularity dropped almost right away when we dropped bot amount. Lets be honest i was suggesting and pushing to get less bots in Jay2 and i dont like play against bots, i do like jay2 more now than before, but if i could go back to moment when i was suggesting to reduce bots i would vote differently. So lets not make same mistake now, lets keep bot amount to current one and keep one server friendly to new comers, if server is popular enough it should not be problem if there is 12 or 15 bot per team, because if server is popular enough you should be able to play without bots most of time.

 

To maps, suggest new maps, let us know what should be removed and i can talk to server management team and we can see when we can update rotation.

 

I agree that it should lock map for 8 maps time before you can re-vote it again, but not more, 8 is max, ppls come to play in the server and would like to play they favorite maps, and mostly ppls cant be server 3-4 hour waiting they favorite map, i think avarage gaming time is close to 1-2h. So if we not allowe ppls to play they favorite maps because we dont let them re-vote already played maps, it will affect to server, ppls go to server then where they can play they favorite maps, so to please both sides, those who play a lot and dont want see same maps all the time, we should make it 8 instead of 6, but not 10 so its not too much.

 

Was there any other questions where you was waiting reply?

Von, we've been requesting maps for a l-o-n-g time.  We keep getting referred to Schnee's poll and nothing.  We get shown all these wonderful maps that aren't on any of our servers and it feels like a big tease.  We were told here to log on to jaymod server because it was tanking in the polls and we did.  Most of us came from Beg 2 server to make the numbers go up.  We listen and act on what the clan says.  We're just looking for the same.  We'll take whatever new maps work, but if you go to the threads we'll take anything for change sake.  Most of us have been playing for 10+ years and still enjoy the game.  If there are new maps out, let's see them in play.  I'm not nagging, but I'm raising awareness that there are a lot of players that have asked and there has been no action in Beg 2.  I don't know how to say it any other way.

 

 

Also, and I don't want to mix issues up but there is a massive problem where those of us with tags are getting booted or losing XP.  XP doesn't really matter that much but getting booted for wearing tags?   That doesn't seem right.

May I ask you Von,

 

 

to became more flexible, what about establishing someone, who can change the maps? maybe we will finaly have new maps, but them again next 2 years nothink? 

 

I think many of us, i can say 90% of active admins, wrote here, we need new maps, we made a pool, voted..... WE are ready once in 3 months change 3-5 maps. I think Rendel or WOOTER can handle maps changing... Give us an option to have our server flexible....

 

WE can follow some given rules.... Once in 3 month, maximum 5 maps change, always make a pool, minimum 10 voters and present it on the forum...

 

 

What do you think?

[von Rantala]

Hard to believe that you had to wait years for new maps. Could you give me any link of latest map suggestion and i can see what i can do. For totally new maps what was suggested here. We cant take them before they are tested, some maps might work, but some could crash the server or have bug in it, so we should first test new maps before we add those to server.

These are polls that are very recent, in a PM group of B2 players regarding new maps:

There was added couple of maps and that was about a year ago.

Sorry for not making this poll sooner, I've been busy studying for an exam on Wednesday and playing Civ . I see Raz has made a poll about bots so here's one for spawn times. https://strawpoll.com/gz9bhx16

Voted!

[JOHNNY008]

So I hope everybody who was interested in voting, already visited our polls..... So, selfdamage is 10:0 for establish selfdamage. Number of bots, there are more possibilities. from 8 to 10 bots... SO how can we proceed now to move forward?

[RendeL]

Ah sorry I forgot to add link about selfdamage poll here before: https://fearless-assassins.com/topic/89172-beginners-2-selfdamage/

Most people voted for 8 bots per team, which is pretty much the standard number on NQ1 and NQ3 servers. My personal suggestion would be to go down to 10 bots first and see how regulars respond to it.

Selfdamage will be implemented.

I'm still in a convo with von Rantala and Platonic about maps. Once we reach a conclusion, I will post the results in map topic.

 

In the end it will all come down to who of us catches DD first.

[JOHNNY008]

10 bots is from my point of view good compromise

Self damage Ok.

 

To maps, we will be looking forward to see your results.

 

Thank you so much Raziel

How about spawn times? Those are the biggest problem on the server in my opinion.

Wooter wanted to make a list with spawntimes after the new maps are in.

Sorry I forgot to write about Spawn time. Current is really so fast... 6 TO 8 sec now...

 

As u can see we made a poll, and from my point of view, it would be again good compromise to have 12 sec. for BEG 2...

 

Please change this toooo...

 

Thank you Raziel...
