Get Rid Of Awe

Postby [SCUM] Lobo » 10 Oct 2008, 20:55

No body bothers with the awe server much and the main server is full multiple times a day. If we have the old server back then we have a place for the players during overflow times. This way SCUM will also become more popular due to more people being able to play! The only catch is that people may not notice the server so I believe that we need the IP address to appear in the main server console messages multiple times with the details.

What do you think guys?

I agree with Lobo. AWE is just not doing business. If we go back to a regular server we will have a better chance of drawing in players and it would be a good alternative when the main server is full.

I kinda have to agree... thing is without constant camping/players to get it going it hasn't taken off.

I think a FFA server would have a much better chance of growing a reg player base. Think about it, which game mode do you choose when you want to fill the server.... FFA.
Lots of peeps choose FFA for its fast no bullshit shoot everthing that moves game play. Theres no whining about teams and you can jump in and get what you expected 99% of the time.

I reckon a 16 player FFA server would take off in no time, because 2 players or 10 you can have a GG!

Good idea although let us be careful we don't simply spread our crowd over 2 servers. 16 on each is worse than 32 on one! :mrgreen:

Do you think we should have different rules on this server though: no Grenade Launchers or Martydom? It would allow the players on the main server to have a break from all those annoying perks.

I think a different crowd would populate a FFA server to start. Alot of the time half the players who were coaxed onto the server with FFA to populate it, leave when the gametype changes.

I'm not sure about stopping marty and tubes either, I think we'd alienate more folk than we'd gain IMO?!

Wouldnt make a difference on #FFa mate as there are no teams!

good idea tho!, as much as i would love to see the awe server fill up, its highly unlikely at the minute, i say take the server down completely, or make it FFA to builf up the rank, then mabye SD & SAB only or something..

:O

How about giving it the game styles that the main server lacks? More SD, HQ, DOM..That kind of thing? Like the second piece of a puzzle.
