DODs Changes and New Servers

DODs Changes:

Yesterday we did some major change to our DODs servers and thought it would be useful to let you guys know of the changes :)

#1 League Rotation - This server is running 4 competitive maps Salerno, Lennon, Harrington and Santos and has a map voting plugin installed to allow you to pick the next map
#2 Official Rotation - This server now runs all the official dods maps that are not on any other servers (Avalanche, Anzio, Argentan, Donner and Kalt) and much like #1 also runs a map voting plugin to allow you to pick the next map
#3 Flash - No changes here, still going well :)
#4 Test Rotation - We plan on changing this server once a month with new maps to play, we are looking for peoples feedback on these maps and based on that we can incorporate them into the other servers. The current maps on this server are Crash, Colonia, Tiger, Aura and dod_inside_arena_[hcm]_b2 and as with the other multiple map servers this also has a map voting plugin installed on it :)
NEW! #5 Gun Game - This server has very recently became a gungame server hosting a variety of maps and whatnot :)
#6 Jagd/Colmar - This server is very much the same as before now :)

All of the dods servers are also now running the player based flag capturing plugin which means if there are less people on the server then required to cap a flag then this plugin now reduces that number required so you can cap it

New Servers:

Come the 30th August Red Orchestra 2 will be launching on steam. If you have never heard of this game it is basically a world war 2 multiplayer shooter that focuses on both vehicle and infantry combat. The game allows for massive 64 player battles (which we will be hosting, durrrr :P) or less players if you want more tactical battles.

Go pick it up now for £26 if you want to get access to the beta and some other goodies or get the regular edition for £22 (owners of the original RO get a futher 10% discount on both of these)

Oh yeh, and we will also be hosting servers for Battlefield 3 :P

That is all for now folks!

Great News! Maybe you could announce on FB and Twitter accounts too?

Rockford has a good point. The Twitter and Facebook profiles seem a little underused at the moment. Unless you are on Steam when announcements are posted, you will not see them unless you look at the group profile. Facebook and Twitter updates will appear on a user's feed/wall/whatever the cool kids call it.

Fair enough there are less people subscribed compared to the Steam group, however any publicity is good publicity.

Apart from that, great job in making these changes Lucky.

Ah ok, my apologies. I don't use Twitter so I wasn't aware.

I'm pretty sure it's Lucky that is doing most of the tweets. Its not used that often. And perhaps should be.
