Title: Arena Servers Post by: Virus on October 28, 2012, 10:59:57 AM This is a suggestion to server-owners.
OA has its popular servers but I can remember a server with Instantgib DM on wrackdm17 only which is gone for some time now. Straightforward one-weapon play with instant action is missing imho. Thus I figured out some setups for OA with selected OA maps that might deliver that, could attract people and that complement popular servers present. Basically these servers could be without voting. setups list non-standard values Code:
If anyone could implement one of them that would be very cool :) Title: Re: Arena Servers Post by: Virus on November 15, 2012, 01:17:57 PM Ok I could test setups myself on a public server thanks to Cacatoes' collective administration of gameservers attempt. BIG THANKS for that great opportunity.
I tried the ones listed above and refined them. I hope I post the complete setups I ended up with: Domination with rocket only and free rj. Only Aggressive is suitable. ctf_gate1 hardly is esp. as players did not get the goal of game at once :) Code: set g_instantgib 0 Next is rocket DM with free rj. Code: set d1 "map aggressor; set nextmap vstr d2" Third is normal weapons CTF without push (also no rj :O)& slow down by weapon hits as this is way too much and favors camping/spamming over aim and strafing. Code: set d1 "map oa_bases3; set nextmap vstr d2;set g_knockback 0" Also had simple instantgib CTF with g_knockback 0 and thus no teammate pushing. So overall from my perspective the setups work pretty well and offer fun and good play. Within short time they did not establish broadly though. But maybe someone likes to adopt or alter from them. |
