    “No newbies without clan experience!”
    – Could players not just register a user and play on the server without having a team? But yeah, i guess the skill level will be a bit higher than average pub servers :D

    Sweet!

  10. DeNeusbeer: (Legend) - HoT<3 said:

    There’s a small widget on the sidebar that shows basic server info and a direct connection link. It’s ugly as hell, and probably performs shit, but it’ll do untill i can make a proper version after my vacation.

    cp_glacier plx.

  28. Extremer said:

    Really jumpy server fps, keeps jumping between 60 and 250 all the time.

  29. Mole: DCSB - Hey dats! said:

    If people keep asking for another, then I would put this on the DCSB public server too if someone would send me the sourcemod extension.

    And yeah, as Extremer said I found it to unable to hold a standard performance earlier.

  30. danielsan: epx^ - Panda said:

    can we have a map rotation instead of voting so each map gets played

  31. Thanatos said:

    btw can you get hlstats working on this server?

    It would make it the best server in Europe.

  32. codcrille: Fresh. said:

    Put in gravel pit in the map pool.

  33. codcrille: Fresh. said:

    ooops cant read ignore me

  34. ____13____ said:

    “btw can you get hlstats working on this server?
    It would make it the best server in Europe.”

    Please NO, NEVER EVER. Everything but hlstatsx. Hlstatsx turn most people in stat-whores. They don’t care about their team, or if they win or lose, all that matters is the stats.

    Do you want hlstatsx also on the servers you play official games? No, because it’s completely useless, and kpd/kill per minute/etc say nothing of how you helped your team achieving the goals.

    Hlstatsx kills the players teamwork and fun.

  35. Jh: Hey dats! said:

    fast respawn kthx 5secs would just be aces mmmmm amirite m8z elohel

  36. iQue: keso said:

    Suhweet

  37. Tom: [Ci] said:

    Needs a class limit. Great other than that.

  38. Kira!: xen - don\\\'t said:

    which hosting is using?

  39. Kira!: xen - don\\\'t said:

    And it is better to be 2 servers with 8v8

  40. codcrille: Fresh. said:

    12v12 > 8v8, it’s a pub not a light pug get real yao.

  41. chocolatE :> said:

    :)

  42. hamza: vR - vR| said:

    nice :)

  43. Koeitje: AUTOBOTS said:

    It’s hosted on brainstorms dedi box afaik :)

  44. Koeitje: AUTOBOTS said:

    So no hosting through multiplay or whatever.

  45. futari: fail said:

    6 engi’s, a medic, 2 snipers and me as soldier.. guaranteed win formula 0_o
    Then all sentries get destroyed and all the engi’s go pyro.. quite funny but not really good for the game :/

    Love the server, just needs class limits

  46. paket0n said:

    server must be 16 slots

  47. HELMUT PITZ said:

    impossible to connect

  48. che: fa» - [SpA] said:

    only low- and better players can connect :P

  49. compton: cvx| said:

    mumble?

  50. Snyyppis: RLM said:

    Just played a quick session and I must say the experience was rather positive. Sure, there were some rounds with the odd 4 snipers per team, but hey at least they know how to play the damn class!

  51. AshigiKi: k0 said:

    16 slots? You have to wait at least 5 minuts to join with 24 slots :DDD.

  52. Fluffy Meowington: TC.Potat said:

    “No newbies without clan experience!”
    WTG making this sound like the ESL pubs.

  53. FrAgola said:

    nice idea, i liked some custom maps

  54. Willazord said:

    awesome server :D

  55. sognim: Infinity said:

    It’s a very nice idea. Good job. The skill level is way higher than regular pubs, which is nice for a change. People have pointed here nice ways to improve this idea further and here goes my 2 cents:

    class limit
    8×8 (possibly 2 servers of 16 slots each)
    no hlstatsx
    vent/mumble

    About the customs maps, I think they are too many (has stated here earlier). There should be new community maps cause Valve keeps releasing pub maps but when we have under played maps like gravelpit we should go easy on new maps. Just my 2cents…

  56. Mr.Magic: TBA - ZOS! said:

    it’s funny how there are pretty much always just scouts, demos, soldiers, medics and snipers being played.

  57. iQue: keso said:

    Awesome server, but outlaw is a terrible map. :p

  58. compton: cvx| said:

    No way for class limits. It’s a pub, not a PCW. Maybe some sort of engi limit to prevent extreme turtling, 3-4 would be reasonable. Otherwise I see no reason for class limits.

    No way for 8vs8. It’s a pub.

    Hlstatsx, I don’t really care. Prefer not to have it, but can live with it if they are enabled.

    Way for removing maps that don’t work in pubs.

    Way for mumble. Maybe link the team channels together on weekends for fun?

  59. danielsan: epx^ - Panda said:

    starting to think class limits could be a good idea, 1v6 scout battles are a bit unfair :(

  60. .: cc// said:

    We have need another server.Coz this server allways full.

  61. RaCio: GoT² said:

    Can we please get the scramble and vote systems that the server previously had(when it was the 2nd GoT server).

  62. AnimaL said:

    mumble, stats,class limits… rofl, get a life

  63. .: cc// said:

    GRRRR…

  64. TANC_Warmaster: -[MG]- - HL said:

    http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/84.244.189.238:27015/

    take a look at the number of players last week.. Most active server i’ve ever seen:)

    and +1 for scramble option

  65. KOVACS said:

    Am I missing something or is it fucking impossible to join? Been sat at 24/24 for 30 mins now with it set to join as soon as a slot is available…

  66. Cabal: 50829 said:

    server is kinda laggy though :O

  67. appe said:

    so this server isn’t about “organized public”? If that’s the case, time to hand out a few bans

  68. Arnold: DAKKA said:

    seven engies is the only reason to play on pub

  69. mass said:

    always full …

  70. DEWE: okejra said:

    Another server wouldnt hurt since this one is gettin hammered to death ^_^;V

  71. Kid said:

    I can’t still join, i am not “whitelisted”… and i’ve registered few days ago already.

  72. Extremer said:

    You need to add your STEAMID to the site Kid

  73. Kid said:

    A-ha! :) Thanks.

  74. failedatluck said:

    some maps should be added to the map list on top. like freight_final and such.

  75. Kop: [CiC] - CiC said:

    freight final was in the list BUT its buggy as hell and was removed

  76. f0rce said:

    Its liek 24/7 of the time completely full,
    how about a 2nd/3rd/… server?
    Until its kinda balanced: populated enough, but also not always full.

  77. Skoberget: Gurka* said:

    Fun with an ETF2L server with at least alittle better players than the usual pubs, although the teamwork still isnt very effective and most people are just sitting there quiet.

  78. Rageman said:

    120 ping from Poland

  79. AnimaL said:

    50-70ms lag spikes, 40fps serverside…. not gonna play on it again im afraid :P i got less lag on yank custom map servers

  80. Bjuo said:

    i constantly get 300 ping on this server
    only this one :/

  81. Mendietaaaa: TBNC said:

    is there any mumble/ventrilo to talk while playing in that server? could be great

  82. Adel: Üb said:

    I have to say, the server feels like it’s really struggling with a 24 man load. Very laggy, very stuttery. It’s really noticeable coming from a decent performance clan server to this one.

    Someone said it was being dedicated hosted on a private box somewhere? Perhaps try cutting the team sizes down to 10×10 or 8×8 and see if your hardware copes better with that, ‘cos at the moment it’s painful to play even as a medic or pyro or whatever, never mind trying to aim as a solly when the server fps keeps tanking.

  83. Mumm.lu said:

    A decent solution should be announced soon :P

  84. jagbama: бекон said:

    Played on it for the first time last night, was ace – thanks Brainstorm/GOT <3

  85. jagbama: бекон said:

    ^^ I retract my previous statement, the admins (I’m looking at you, Gryzor) have no sense of humour…

    |:(

  86. jagbama: бекон said:

    (safety smileys :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD)
