TF2 - ocuk clan Try number 2? <3

Current spawn time (Presume it's currently still set to 15 sec?), is the main reason you’re seeing the server empty out long before other UK servers every night.

15 sec is far too much (Esp. on a 24 player server), and almost all the UK servers that use that spawn time often empty out early on each evening. Whilst I’m not in favour of instant re-spawn servers; Imo you can set it to more reasonable 5 or 7 sec and meet a fine balance, more than enough to nuke a team with an uber and push the cart or cap point etc.

SAdly it seems that only dustbowl. goldrush. badwater keeps the server busy.

Steele is ok, but anything else seems to empty the server.

May have to go back to dustbowl, goldrush, badwater rotation. Then just setnextmap every few hours to something random like 2fort, fastlane, badlands etc etc etc. That way the server stays busy all day.

I dunno, go back to the 3 map rotation?

Back to Goldrush, Dustbowl, Badwater. Drop spawn to 10secs again. Increase number of admins with power to mapchange, that way if there is a demand on server it can be changed to whatever people want.

Unfortunately I can't play atm, Tiscali are **** and have wrecked my net connection. Luckily I'm migrating to Be Unlimited on the 10th /o/

No swearing.
 
Everytime i go on i try and change the map to something like dustbowl to get people on, only to realise ...i still don;t have my admin back :p

I've unlocked pyro and heavy level 2 weapons now wooo :D

She was worse than me and tried some white powder :mad::mad::mad:

So thus I was ******* livid, so stayed up and played wipeout HD, I couldn't get on the pc properly.

Definately change the respawn time a bit, 15seconds is far too long. i normally play on GFTO gaming as they have instant respawn because sometimes you just want a quick blast. I would vote for time to be about 5 or 6 seconds as it gives you enough chance to get back to it rather than the other team rebuilding straight after your attack then being stuck at stage one again.
 
15 secs far too long? When it was shorter attacking the last caps/points were stupidly hard. Default would be best.. it's there for a reason..
 
I'm conflicted over spawn times really - on the one hand I don't like to have to wait to play, on the other I realise that too fast respawn makes some maps (at least on pub servers) essentially unwinnable.

I actually have a personal preference for the GTFO "fast respawn" (5-7 seconds?) which seems to strike a nice balance between not feeling like you're sat around and actually being able to win rounds. I played an instant-respawn game of 2fort last night and it was a nightmare - trying to get the intel out I ended up killing the same guy 4 times going in and out of the base and even then I think I only managed to get it out through a freak set of coincidences - i.e. the whole enemy team being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

To be honest I think you either have to go default or fast/instant-respawn, having it somewhere in the middle isn't going to please either crowd.

And with 15 sec its stupidly easy, with all the 'teamstacking' that goes on on most public servers, you only need one decent medic for one way traffic with that spawn time. :)

Agree, UKCS TF2 servers are the same iirc?

I keep missing peak game time recently. Joined at about 10pm last night server said there was 22 on, when I got in there was 8 !!!! I guess map had just cycled and the majority thought it was time to quit :(
