If you see six people on The_Wall...

[zeus9860]

Moar flaming @devs = less probability of having a patch sooner and the more hatred for the community it will bring. So the hell with your tip, i would rather get over it(like i did many times) and redo the map from scratch, i might give up on the map on the moment it crashes but i actually never give up on what i consider an actual challenge for a map of my level.

Just my opinion.

WINK

 

[immad]

I'll be sure to join the next server I see running the_wall with 6 players..

 

[Postal]

o.o

This can't end well.

 

[The Man In Black]

Yeah, it ended terribly..

With an Axe of Balance :\

 

[SilentDeath]

It got a little laggy at parts but it was not too bad.

 

[The Man In Black]

I had low enough fps to where I was having to use +special, but that's about it. Those RKS servers can take a beating.

 

[cartman-2000]

I was on that playthrough too, I got rather crappy fps in parts(open gl doesn't work efficiently on ATI cards.), but it's pretty much the same on other maps with a lot of players.

lol it was funny.

Figured I'd revive this great thread, but this time I'd like to talk about oceancrossing and shad_palace.
If you see ~4 - 5 people on oceancrossing or shad_palace,

Don't join.

DO NOT F*CKING JOIN

You will cause people to drop for the server and lose their damage points and the pots they were using. If we're really unlucky, you'll cause the server to crash when we're partying like it's 1995.

Let me reiterate.

DON'T. F*CKING. JOIN.

That is all.

 

[Freerad]

Also do not join sorc_villa hostile if you were NOT AT THE START.

 

[J-M v2.5.5]

GOD DAMN!!!
WHYYYYY must selfish people always join without asking.

Why on ****ing earth would people join a shad_palace run anyway when they can just join sorc_villa later? Makes NO sense.

FIVE minutes from beating the god damn map and Vibty99 the selfish ****ing moron ruins it by joining.
FUCK YOU, Vibty99.

Some people are just god damn selfish and stupid.

That's two out of two tries ruined by people who consider themselves too important to ASK if they can join. And whoever ****ed it up the first time: if I find out who you are, you are screwed, too

 

[Gorynych]

Yep, Pretty irritating, but oh well. :/

 

[J-M v2.5.5]

Man I feel much better after that vent XD
Attempt #3 tomorrow: with even more harsh/blunt "leave before we votekick you" attitude I guess.

 

[Keldorn]

If you need an RKS server passworded to do runs on ent heavy maps (shad_palace, the_wall, etc.) message me on steam and I'll probably password it if there are empty servers available.

 

[OpsMiller]

first you have to wait 2 years for Keldorn to add you.. im still waiting..

 

[Thothie]

Going to introduce votelock, temporary server password system, next patch.

that is awesome, although it now belittles part of my admin abilities, now the only special thing im gonna do is just kick/ban D:

o wait, thats still fun

 

[OpsMiller]

could one person lock a server?
what if you join server votelock leave join another and repeat until all servers are locked!
im sure you thought of this already..

 

[Keldorn]

Could always have it unlock automatically when the server is empty.

Servers with ms_reset_if_empty set to 1 sort of do this already.

Bigger issue is people who like to afk in MSC for some reason.

 

[Borya]

You mean like Oyster?

Currently, it's setup so it needs three or more players, and if the player who initiates the votelock leaves, or the map changes, it resets.

It'll skrag any password currently on the server, the way it's written, but I figure any passworded server is likely to have an admin on ready to deal with that fact. The server host can also opt to disable the ability via cvar.

Didn't think of dealing with AFK'ers though. Hrmm... There is an AFK check system, but I'm not sure how reliable it is.

 

[OpsMiller]

so from going from loda1 I'd votelock then loda2 votelock etc..?? orrrr will it remain locked for series maps.

also is it possible to take away 3 slots? and have 5 player max servers?

+1 (I swear he does it just to piss me off.)
