Post subject:  Medieval 24/7 Server

Creating this post to see if there is any interest in having a 24/7 medieval server. I had a go at lunch today and it was really fun, was like melee only but the map really suited the mode, unlike when we do melee only (or melee sundays) on certain maps its not fun when u spend most of the time running through the maps looking for the brawl. Plus this mode relinquishes the need for a melee plugin and SpA admins having to constantly remind people that its melee only and kicking as a result.

Would probably temporarily replace server 2 or the highlander server.

Coar and LeFu have shown interest, plus this mode would suit the spa members who don't like playing on server 1 due to the competitive nature of the game.

Thoughts?

I, as a medic, don't enjoy this game mode at all.

I'd be interested in poping in for a game everynow and again, but like our arena server, or our no crits server, i can see it dying out after a week or 2 once intrest starts to fade and people go back to playing normally, maybe best to turn one of our other servers into a medevil server every now and again (like once a week) rather than a server thats there 24/7.

How's the highlander server doing, are people still showing an interest in that?

I wouldn't mind it.
Even if the server has 4 people playing, it's still fun. :D

Hopefully it wont run as long as the Halloween server did which was counter-productive, but we could test it for a week and see what happens i guess.

The highlander server is rarely full and pointless imo, if people want a highlander game they should get teams and go on the warservers.

Which leads onto QT's point, where i always see 4 people on the highlander server and it completely deifies the point haha, be probably more fun as its melee only and i know a few spa who prefer fucking around in melee only and avoiding the competitive servers. Plus i would jump on at the end of a game and just through some punches, its very addictive I found, shame its only one map atm.

Yes indeed. In an unproductive, unrewarding and boring experience. The medival medic set is a nice addition to normal gameplay but it can't replace the medigun. Its like removing watches or buildings. It makes the class pointless. Plus the game mode is heavily inbalanced due to the rigid weapon restrictions.

highlander server should be kept around, as nonoice is planning on coding a plugin for it.

i'm sure that it would be fun but stuff like this never lasts more than a month or two. i don't think it's worth the bother tbh

Post subject:  Re: Medieval 24/7 Server

Well i only suggested having it for a week or so over christmas, would be ok as long as it is shorter than that halloween update server that went on far too long,

plus it might be harder to fill the normal one over the xmas holidays too

Why don't you just put it into the normal mapcycle? If people like the mode (which is rather a map as far as i understood) they will play it, no need for an own server in my opinion (we also don't have dustbowl 24/7 or goldrush 24/7, so why a whateverthemapiscalled 24/7 ?)

Mode is fun, but for about 20 minutes in one package - map is extremely small, huntsman snipers are annoying. If its possible just put it as a map in the rotation, cause frankly I had much more fun on melee sundays ;)

Post subject:  Re: Medieval 24/7 Server

well medieval mode is not a map, it's a game mode.

There is a chat filter which transforms your words in some nice medieval talking :D and class restrictions...and i don't think you can enable them only for a specific map.

Also, you can apply medieval mode to all maps ingame.

Exactly, presents melee is much more fun ;)

Post subject:  Re: Medieval 24/7 Server

well maybe we could do a server with a selection of smaller maps using the medieval mode, fuck it, if its only for a week and no one plays on it, we will get rid of it, no biggy.

JEEZ! :ugly:

Post subject:  Re: Medieval 24/7 Server

I'd rather see us play on the servers we do have than get another server. I've played maybe 2-3 games on our servers, though it could be because of time zones...
