Well they fucked it up then and you should get different host because thats a retarded system. Multiplay don’t have bad servers, but their system is just so retarded in that respect.

True. We do have another match server (for 6v6s) we could use, provided by Rackage, which I know is FTP based. I just wanted to see if it worked on my server so it wouldn’t need to bother my clan leader, who owns the server, about it. Guess I’ll have to now.. xD!

DM provides you with a lot more match situations in my opinion.

It also provides you with rocket spam from high ground while you’re fighting someone else, rolling nades everywhere (when there are 2 demomen on a team), random headshots in a middle of a duel, scouts 2-shotting you from the back…in a middle of a duel and gangrapes. It’s still awesome though and you might say that all that stuff makes you become more alert of your surroundings and mimics real situations better.

Anyway dm is great, but the training mod is even better since it’s pure 1v1 deathmatch with no one else bothering you so you can make better adjustments to your aim. I had it happen a lot of times to me in dm when I was like about to attempt an airshot only to get headshott’d, nade’d or meatshot’d. Airshot here was given just as an example, it also happens in other situations.
Just my 2 cents.

Sorry about the server’s being down guys. Put simply, the mod is bugged to hell at the minute. I spoke to Lange on IRC earlier, and he’s really not got a clue what’s going on either.

I’ll have a look again tomorow.

edit: Also, there’s a new version of the map out with a few bug fixes that I have on the servers atm, heres a download link for you all:

(don’t worry though, whenever I get the servers back up it will be automatically downloaded via FastDL)

Servers sorted lads. Running the new mgemod v0.0.3 :)

Remove the green glowy thingie which represents the intel when you pick it up, please

Actually, I should also ask now. Myself and Lange are currently working on adding some really cool new statistics to the system. damage/accuracy between weapons and on average across all time, wins on various duels, etc.

Because of this, I’ll need to reset the existing statistics to make it accurate, just looking for some views on this (as a workaround may be possible).

Personally I think making a clean slate so that people aren’t playing to keep points would be a fairly good idea.

Resetting it every few months is a good idea anyway, makes sure that noone cares about points too much.
