Make it either a public INF or a public DM, with good playable custom maps and at least 10 player limit.

I would like to see more people playing INF, I like it, but the problem is that there are not enough people who play it currently :D
When I've got an good mode idea, I'll post it.

I agree. And it's annoying how there's only one good/popular inf server. (graveyard) We need more.

I´d suggest a ZombieSurvival. There is a huge empty space in Soldat without !KY ZombieSurvival ... it was awesome. I´d play there night and day if it was back and I am not alone. It would need to be scripted from sketch then, though, but I could help with further information on skills, levels and stuff.

I just made an ZRPG server a few weeks ago, and it runs ok, but thats nothing unique. A sandbox server would be nice, but I tryed this and it was allways empty because no one likes to read the !help text... and I think thats the problem of the most servers with nice gamemodes on it, the most player just dont understand it...

Most ZRGPs are based on levels, skills and playing against zombies in INF mode. ZSurvival is based on TM and you are able to be a zombie OR a human. Where humans have many different skills zombies have special abilities but less skills.

I have been trying around with a survival, but after I started I always get lazy and stop working on it again, but I'll maybe make it when you will host it then.

I got an awesome idea, how about hosting IMod on it?? Lets make it popular again!

You're hosting it in Ger you say?
If anyone here ever was a regular Inf pubber, you'll know Internal Bleeding Inflict (Aka: IBI) was the shit.
It was full about 8-10 hours a day, because it's a very, very good location for a public Inf server, use absolutely no mods, no fancy eye candy cover maps, no nothing.
If you want, remove the minigun, as it causes immense FPS lags on low end PC's such as mine, and give only the basic kits on a low frequency of spawns; predator, berserker, clusters.
You'll want to use the default map pack along with some oldie celebrities in the Inf map scene, maps such as POW camp, Rise, Rescue, Undermines, Pokahusomething, and I repeat, do NOT throw in fancy remakes of remakes of remakes of remakes etc...Default maps get are the most fun.
You'll want one or two admins with a fair amount of common sense and actual experience with Inf morals.
Do all that, and you're guaranteed your server will be very active.

P.S: Player limits can range, so it's best to make it 10, most decent servers used that limit.

Except the admin of that server ruined it...
This one is different, and with people who're closer to Ger than to Poland...(Like me)

Ster śmierdzi.
As you can see - self promotion ftw. I dislike guys doint this like this... anyway this topic wasn't about it so I consider my post and his as awful spam.

Anyway, how about some decent funmode? DFA was fun once upon the time... :)

I don't know who made it - but yes, it was Death from above. Quite amusing mod. :D

You won't get full server with it. I'm sure. It's good for fun only. :)

I thought that was only a weapons.ini modded server.

Probably you are right, croat1gamer. There was nothing special about it. Only laws&snipe + special map + WM.

On ster no mercy I've got a fixed 250...
On Internal Bleeding inflict, and most Ger CTF's I visit I have an average of 50-150.
Getting it?

No, I actually felt a difference in gameplay and hit regging.

Post by: DarkCrusade on February 15, 2010, 04:58:48 pm
So you just want a server that you can play on with a better ping? ...

DFA was fun. A shame that m00 got banned from soldatforums. Really, he was a nice guy, even if you don´t like him. DFA was like LAW catch. The maps have similiarities with dodgeball maps. All maps are divided in the middle so that the two teams are seperated. The aim is to kill the whole enemy team with modified LAWs that will reload faster and shoot 3 bullets. Also there are additional scripts that will let players explode their bodies to kill enemies near them if they are dead or boost an ally. Also you were able to call an airstrike for x kills.

Oh, that DFA, i mixed up some stuff (DFA' clan wmod server)

Yeh, the server was great.

Post by: y0uRd34th on February 16, 2010, 07:09:38 am
m00 has been banned, why that? And yes he was a really nice guy and his server too though, always funny people there ;)

To stay on topic these days, would you like to play zombie survival? (DarkCrusade made a new topic about it) Just so I know if we can have a server for sure or have to search another one :D

I was talking to Bonecrusher before about the server hosting and he said if we had a working script he would host it if I understood right.

Not only you.
/me raises hand.

There was some Finnish server which had modified saw - it allowed you to fly through the air with it. It was fun. :) It was very hard to hit flying with enormous speed target with barrett.
