Title: QeHs Servers
Post by: lekky on July 22, 2009, 07:33:59 AM
Thinking about bringing back some QeHs servers. Maybe 2 match and 4 pubs, or 3 of each.

Are they actually needed? It seems most servers aren't used anyway anymore?

I was also thinking about the type of pub servers. Something along the lines of

- a classic maps server (ie those pub maps everyone knows) with a 25s respawn and tips posted to server
- Same as above but but recently released maps (but pub friendly)
- jump map server (Unsure as I would never use it, would anyone else?)
- Another one of the first 2, OR A SPEED SERVER, or a Beginners noob server again with tips sent

Test ip is 85.234.144.83 hosted in UK. Let me know what u guys think (also what you ping :P)

Pub with new maps in it would be nice. But make the rotation big. Most pubs have something like 10 maps in the rotation, and they're shz's and airtimes

So speed servers and an even speedier server?  Why can't we get some good old 1-minute servers so the rounds actually end and some semblance of strategy can be used...

Generally people just don't play in them jits. Try putting a 1 minute respawn server up and that pretty much guarantees it will be empty. You can see how popular the speed servers are, and its hard to stop people playing in them. Totally removing speed servers is basically like saying to people have less fun (assuming popular = fun). My old 25s (around that) servers were quite popular as they were less annoying than instant respawn and newbies still got game time.

supermans pub is #1 because its the only american pub ;)

2 pubs, 4 matches
1 pub: a speed server - supporting overflow for the otb speed
1 normal pub: 15/30second respawn

i cant wait to see the qehs servers back! 20 ping inc!

It's the only american pub with a good rotation. Therefore making it the only popular american pub... err I mean Canadian pub :)

Well I think this is a good idea. I'd make it this way:

1 speed server
1 classic server (20-30 sec respawn)
3 match servers

C'mon! :P

Thats why there is a [CSO] Speed  :)
        
         4 Match servers
         1 Pub with 20/30 secs of respawn, with the normal maps like airtime, shazz33. (Soo that you have a pub for the "Euro newbs").
         1 Pub with 60 secs of respawn, with good recent maps and some maps like pbcup_pforest, etc...
