CS:S Take 2 +1

[GTFO. G]

For those who don't know we have rearranged our servers and removed those which were not being used.

We have set up a office/dust2 32 man CS:S server though in another attempt to get into this game. So check the server out at 81.19.219.81:27040

The server is specifically running these two maps, as they are the most popular, and we'll probably have the best chance of getting a server going running what most people want.

If we get popular, we can put other maps into the rotation.

If you fancy a round and the server is empty, pop into our steam chat room and I'm sure we'll have a few people up for a game or two

I've been having a good laugh on CSS over the past couple of days so when ever I'm online I shall be spamming invites to everyone to come and play

[GTFO. G]

Must say I've been enjoying it too. Takes a bit of getting used to not respawning after being killed. Was loving scout last night, first time with a decent kpd

Need to remove the first person lock view on death though.

Maybe we can all arrange a time to get on for even half an hour or so and really get this server filled?

[GTFO. Coxy]

Yeah sounds like a good idea to me. Also, limit 1 awp per team, or even get rid of it completely! Scout FTW

[Joesoef]

You can always invite me to kick some ass

[GTFO. WhiteRaven]

Get de_desert_atrocity_v3 added to the map list. Its stunning.
Probably one of the best 3rd party maps ever created.

de_nightfever is also a great map.

get rid of it completely imho...

I have a few friend's who are css mad and are part of the 3mc clan. I'm currently trying to arrange it so they will come and use our server on a regular basis as they only have one match server. They may also be interested in a clan match if anyone would be up for it. I'll keep you posted

[Joesoef]

I can alway get a match with Coltkillaz if you want to.
There's usually enough people hanging around on ventrilo to get a mix 5 vs 5 or 6 vs 6 or something.

Anyway, when's the next scrimage ?

[GTFO. Coxy]

I'll try get everyone to play tonight. Would be good if we could all invite some people to come and play and get the server filled up. Even if its not a match but just a mad mixed massacre

[GTFO. Jamie]

we just need to get everyone visiting it FREQUENTLY

it will be useless if we only do it for one week then stop... As people will only come to it once theyve been on it a few times.

Untill then we need admins to get it going!

A few thoughts after playing the server for the first time yesterday:

- the reserved slot advertising may be disabled since there are no reserved slots?
- mp_roundtime could be lower...at least on de Maps (2.5 instead of 3.5?)
- didn´t knew mp_c4timer was at 40 secs...maybe these settings should be displayed at the motd?
- mp_freezetime maybe a bit higher (8 instead of 5?) so unexperienced players can get their buy stuff done before round starts...gives also a bit more time to discuss tactics?
- any chance for another de Map (nuke or nightfever)?

I know almost all of them are personal preferences and may conflict with others so i´m looking forward what others think...

[Joesoef]

Roundtime 2 - 2.5 sounds good. 3.5 is obviously too high when there's a lot of players on. ( Not really a problem yet )

Freezetime 5 secs is ok. buytime could be set to 30 secs or so, giving unexperienced players enough time to buy their stuff.

I don't expect people to discuss tactics on a public server. Although I like teamplay I'm afraid we just have to face the fact that it is never gonna happen on a public server.

I know there are some servers that use a plugin to slay a team when they fail an objective. I don't know what you guys think about that? It helps to stimulate gameplay as it's intended. It is kinda annoying to wait 40 seconds untill the bomb explodes while the last CT is just camping at Terror Spawn to save his precious NOOB4A1.

I had quite a good time yesterday with Echelon and Scratchuk on Office.
What about another round tonight? Let's all jump in around 20:30 or something?

[Joesoef]

* bump *

Getting a CSS server active is quit difficult. We need to play more CSS to get people in

[GTFO. Coxy]

G or Al, maybe a steam community group message is needed to advertise this?

[Echelon]

I have tried many times but nobody wants to join.

[GTFO. Jamie]

i will join next time you guys are on

[Miury]

Yeah, I can play with ya sometimes too. But I am really low, cant even aim :p
