No to hidden, get bored of it way too soon and it wont get used much,
U meant css right?
and TF2? fair enough
We basically have 64 slots to spend on servers, so please post your opinions on what we should get here.
24 slot tf2Quote:

Not bothered, not amazingly impressed with the game atm, so doesnt really bother me either way
I think The Hidden is cool, but I can't really see us playing it in a couple of weeks time.
64 slot Project Reality server + Change TS to Mumble = Win.
As awesome as that would be for you and a few others Vox, if you could think of an alternative that would be useful ;).
*Cough*, a JKA server would be popular, seeing as it's got one of the oldest and most famous clan's name splattered all over it.
Though that's still in discussion, I believe.
I think we need a 64-slot Shipment 24/7 DM server for CoD4. That is fun as hell :D
I remember when I first joined the community, when you had that surf server, that was used a LOT! Especially by myself, just making a comment :)
Agreed with John here :p.
24 TF2 Public
16 CSS Public (could be surf sometimes)
16 Modern Warfare 2 (when it comes out)
8 L4D 2 (when it comes out)
Done.
/agree with phantom
Phantoms looks good tbh
Surf is shit. Do a 24/7 Glassmaps server instead. And do 2x 4 slot L4D servers, since Versus is also crap.
campaing is shit compared to versus
When do L4D2 and MW2 come out? I don't particularly like the idea of waiting ages to actually use some servers.
MW2 is meant to be in september some time, L4D2 will probably be around christmas though im not sure on that.Quote:

Whatever Phantom says, nobody can listen to, HE PLAYS WOW, I SAW HIM ON STEAM :p:p But good ides guys :)
I'm with Phantom here, Oric is having a fail fest so don't listen to him :p.
Yeah I think the Novelty of Hidden will wear off pretty quickly, so yes to a TF2 server, yes to a CS:S, which doesn't HAVE to be either normal maps or fun, it could rotate between normal, glass and surf, and maybe eventually stick with one if it becomes the most popular.
As for the remaining slots... mod Empire: Total War to make a persistent ATK multiplayer campaign tbh :p.
It's TRUE! Somebody help meeeeeee.Quote:

With the last two being the originals before the new versions. Sorted. Gogo setup.
Empire mod FTW, we never had our game at I37 :eek:Quote:

But assume you did make it an 8 slot. What would the four slots come out of?
We couldn't because I've bloated E:TW so much with mods I don't know how to get rid of them all. :pQuote:

I've just heard back from INX that we can't have a BF2/Project Reality server, so sorry about that.
It really would be great to be able to have a few servers that use all of those 64 slots in current games. Personally, I think we should just go with CSS and TF2. We've tried L4D servers in the past and there is no real benefit of having them since they're way too much of a hassle to connect to. We'll think about the new games when they are about to be released.
TF2 server for sure =]
CSS should go without saying as those two games are the ones we play most!
As for any others, I have no idea tbh... lol
surf > glassmaps
BUT
PR > CS
sorry guys, had to be said...
FAIL css tf2 there the main games get servers for them mainly. The css needs to be multi purpose...ie have all the mods we want loaded on it ready to use.
match servers for the serious gamers who actually want the teams in the community to work!!
yup yup, ty, nuff said :)
From what Midge said, what do you all think of the following:
TF2 24 slot (66 tick)
TF2 15 slot (100 tick)
CSS 16 slot (66 tick)
CSS 11 slot (100 tick)
(66 slots in total, I'll see what I can do about getting 2 extra slots :p).
Many of you may think match servers are totally pointless, but because we are all free in the summer we'll easily be able to find some clans who want to make use of a free match server if we advertise them well.
This will bring more visitors to ATK and may even help reform the teams :).
What Summer? Most people go back to school in two to three weeks.
Yeah but many of us don't have to go back as early with university or gap years. As long as a good photoshopper is free it will be fine *cough, chazlene*.
I just want to get these servers sorted now so that we can stop wasting time!
The TF2 match server is pointless because we play matches with SBC now. CSS team doesn't exist (prove me wrong). I think my list is better.Quote:
