You need to allow more than a handful of pub players on your server for it to be worthwhile.

Release the cap.

What? There is no cap on the number of public players on RT's server. All 24 slots are available – there are none reserved.

Re: The Resurgance of the FS Community Game

He means, release the cap from 24 slots.

This will be a community game, hopefully more than 24 people will be joining.  That was already a problem before DSGaming started up, as RT was regularly capping at 24 players, leaving no other decent server to join, and people just stopped playing the mod.  We don't want this with Community games.

DSServ is 64 slot, NFB is 32, and I think the UKWF one is also 64.


Sure, if we get enough people going, we can spliter off to both servers, RT for those with like FF off, I'm sure no one has a problem with that.

Re: The Resurgance of the FS Community Game

Following FS server guidelines (FF on, for example) will probably go a way towards getting you included, too. Not that it's my decision.

Re: The Resurgance of the FS Community Game

24 is too little for a 'community game' server, 32 minimum imo.

Re: The Resurgance of the FS Community Game

Agreed. A CG will draw far more than 24 players, so we may as well just roll out the 64p maps (Taloraan 64! big_smile ) while we actually have that many people.
