i miss normal pubs with decent maps
without servers like the last NBS (or in the past, cybergames) - etpro pubscene will be dead within months.
sorry hipkat if you decided against this, I sort of understand your reasoning to change the server considering the whine you get about "omg timelimit, why cant you be more like bio" but I really think you should reconsider my comment in your previous journal: http://www.crossfire.nu/journals/150679/new-et-pro-pub-server#c4341011
there really is a reason nbs was full like 24/7, same reason cybergames had multiple servers full 24/7.
luckily HBC been going for a long time and always decent people to play with
And look, they still don't! :D
hbc/hirnlos/hirntot are the best ones out there, have been for ages (since u|k died pretty much)
If you're not looking for that then you're probably better suited for 999 minutes servers.
You'll just constantly have to know what you're doing and where you are and where the opponent is. All these so called pro's that get rolled on deli will instantly blame the map though. And indeed, the boring time on those maps is just annoying. Take Radar, I once had a 6o6 where I had to defend main on my own and didn't even see someone for 4 minutes..
They must've really wanted that CP for their tactics to work :D
My point is, those big maps are boring :P You can just walk to your position, shoot a bit, you can always see them coming blablabla
But lets look at it realistically, you need to properly spawntime so you don't get full and they can't put in the gold. You need to revive and play with your team properly, you need to make sure that you do not forget a single one of their players since they can sneak around and do an objective and there is more than 1 objective you need to do ( in contrast to et_ice where you have 1 objective ) so its actually a pretty difficult map indeed. Though there is obviously more to the map, tis is already a tiny list.
Compared to et_ice, where map actually requires proper teamplay, gamesense and good sync between entire team, theres a big skill cap between those two maps, fact. I wouldn't call delivery difficult map at all, as like i said, learn how to lean and camp and ur good to go and its not like u guys haven't been doing same shit entire game, so lets not talk about that lol.
A bonus I love is the amount of blind spots that you can use against wallhackers. Certain spots where the engine bugs, doesn't send player data and therefore a wallhack can't draw the player. Perfect.
Easiest maps to be played you said, so how come even the selfclaimed highskilled faggots cant win a round off of us?
That's not because it's easy to play, it's because we've mastered it's tactics.
Just like there are teams that will always win supply/goldrush anything.
Just because you get rolled there because you all just rush in everywhere doesn't mean all the opponent has to do is wait and easily shoot you headshots.
If that were the case, how would it be in round 2? Would be 2 fullholds then I guess? Rarely ever seen on deli though, I wonder why.
We've won on other maps as well and have no problem with not having to play deli, others do have problems with it.
Please do explain xD
And still, deli is a competitive map.
You're already doomed before even starting this.
You wanted an NBS alternative, do you even REALLY know what it was about then after all these years, since it really seems you don't.
Because you know that will give you a heckload of trashtalk because of all the voting and mapchanges? xD
Besides, unforgiven keeps DDoS;ing the ycn server... fucking dolt
BTW, i3d is awesome. Live tech support. Tickets answered right away.. all good!
Admins can ip/guid ban, set levels to regular players, etc.
Votes are not limited to 2 and vote percent is 51, not 75
There's a f ew little bugs, but those will get worked out
I need refs. GOOD refs, not just because we're friends, but will be serious about it
Spamvoting incoming.
Spammapchanges incoming.
You either know the people you'd like as ref or you don't give them ref, simple. Anyone will come to you saying he's the best ref whilst in the end(as many did before, just like u did) they will just share the ref pass with some buddies and toss it around because who the fuck cares it's a pub.
Or did he just randomly made up a number? xD
I'm here to give you a hard life!
The lies! THE LIES! :(
It's the same thing I did when I transformed by shitserver in to NBS, looking at others.
I had the luck that cybergames just quit the week before and I just thought, why not do something similar, but in my style. And you see how that worked out.
Also had 3 servers running all full 24/7 after a while, with nbs 1 and 2 being exactly the same and having 3 as the alternative.
Can't wait to finely play Purefrag on etpro again.
gl hip
Besides, I can't have a WH'er as admin
deli+pure frag
let me know.
Srsly, up til now, most servers have been empty. I said months ago I was going to make a new server if Nbs died, it died. It's gone now. Weeks ago, I posted about it, and there has been people on it already. You REALLY think you're gonna start another new one on top of the ones that are up now fighting to get players??
Probably not a good idea
what happened to the regualr time limit obj SW servers.... 09 has come and gone. and servers like NBS are shit.
like i said. it was an offer. it's not to gain anything from.
so.. what ever man.
with 30x more resources then gameservers.com or ycn or fragnet servers.
Same goes for i3d though, but at least they give service with it.
But yes, having your own dedicated server(if you really do know what it is) will be fine I guess.
and yes.. i know what a dedicated server is. im not poor and can only afford a VPS/Cloud. lol
more like a 2 x Intel Xeon E564, 32 GB ram. much more than you could afford.
ya fucking emo lookin bitch
I'll tell u the provider If I can remember it. But besides that proPlay also offers decent servers.
Edit: It was a "k-play" server, ask any oldschooler, they'll tell u those were great, if not the best.
I never really whined because of pings, if it wasn't higher than 98. But this almost never happened unless we were playing on some israeli server. Thats the only good thing of being German, u'll ping 98 (later on 48) to almost any place in Europe. The only place I remember never having a lowping was the efterlyst server.
It obviously doesnt make sense to blame a whole country for having bad servers, rather blame the provider. I for myself dislike YCN servers (sorry), because they're laggy and I randomly get +50ms because of weird routing at times.
+ I guess I'm the same, I've never complained about high ping, only the era from ~spring 2010 til ~summer 2011 - during this time I had the most unstable connection I've ever witnessed in ET (worse than freeze. :D I just wasn't as capable as he was with his lag). that for me was unplayable, every game. but that was my own fault a not the server, the only times I manage to notice my own ping problems to a server is when my teammates complain about it first, then I actually see it. :D
Wish I only had to play a bit over a year with a trash connection, but I've been on 2k ever since 2005... sucks to be me. Pings have always been fine, as long as my bro wasn't surfing the net (which happened like most of the time).... -_- Anyway its mine now, so things at least got a tad better, haha.
Almost all the ET servers being hosted by those 'low priced' german hosts are just shit, there may have been some good ones back then, sure. But at the moment you'll only really get quality if you buy a server in a proper game from an expensive host. Same goes for other countries really, but german hosts seem to like derouting their servers.
No offense, but did you even read my post properly? I said the exact same thing. If u want quality servers, you have to pay more than just a few bucks (It's the same thing now and then). Not saying that we don't have weird routings at times, but you're dutch, so it shouldn't really be a problem as u ping 48 anywhere.
If I thought the same way as you, I'd have whined and flamed my ass off on the old (and new) NBS Servers, even when you were still in charge. Don't ever tell me those were quality servers, I usually had a solid 30 ping there, but some days it went up to 80-90, cuz of shit routing or your server provider lagging. Touche, eh? Now do I think all dutch servers are shit? No.
If all affordable server providers are shit atm, it doesn't really matter, where the server is located anyway, as they'll all lag / deroute at some point. German servers are just the most central in Europe, so cut the whine just because u've got 10ms more than in your own country, while the rest will probably have an overall better average ping than on a dutch server.
Pings? Who still cares about pings, especially with etpro's way of showing ping, with a simple command you can force it to show another ping >.>
NBS were never solid servers indeed, hosted by YCN trash. Never did say I had proper servers, it's pretty hard to come by actual good ones these days. But thanks for pointing out YCN sucks, +1'd.
You're right and I may have missed that point before then, if you REALLY want something good, you'll have to pay up. It's just that 99% of the serverhosts out there are not that kind of hostings, but just want to make some easy bucks and deliver nothing but a server.
My point about Germany in this case is, because it is central in europe many think it's the best way to go. But looking at some statistics(which can be found through some googling) many europeans have better connections to dutch/french servers.
I once read a case a few years ago where a ''big'' german gameserverhost was selling ''quality'' servers but was actuallly routing them through New York. It was then said that they were not the only ones doing so and because of some german policies or so this was better for the company.
I didn't really want to go on and on about it, just wanted to make sure Hip didn't get a german host now as I know the guy and he'll look at less expensive rather than more quality.
Sure back in the days, ET may have been a maingame for gsp's, but nowadays it's hard to find a hosting actually caring for these servers.
