Is it big enough for 32 people?
Edit: Holy fuck, that map is almost facing worlds. Knock the damn server back down to 24 and let's do this shit up, yo!

Save me a spot! Or alternatively, PM me and tell me how to bring the console up for admin goodies  |

Turn on "developer console" under Advanced, in the in game options.
Then press tilde (`).

Ah! I was pretty sure it was the tilde, but I didn't enable it. Gracias.

It didn't here, just said "map not found, disconnecting." That said, I just downloaded it from FileFront and got in fine. |

Hey, as far as achievements and stats go, can someone explain which are per-life, per-round, and per-map change?

Also, I think we should reconsider naming the server "Bat Country".

I don't care if it's Bat Country or not, but the racist servername seems to be attracting a bunch of fucking morons who don't realise it's irony.

This. Both our servers, when I played on them this evening, were filled to the brim with drooling morons. I've never seen such bad snipers/spies/engineers before. One sniper was getting repeatedly sniped from a well-entrenched pair of snipers on the other team. What does he do? For the entire round, he respawns, runs out to the exact same spot, begins to take aim and gets popped. Again. And Again. And Again. Another spy kept trying to stab people in the face as opposed to the back, only to get shot to death before doing anything to anyone who wasn't at 1% life. And the engineers... jesus, setting sentry guns up in little-used parts of the base that can be easily destroyed by a simple around-the-corner grenade bounce, then setting up their dispenser elsewhere... and then rushing off to join the assault, so spies could make quick work of everything!Argh. |

What's funny is I've played with some fantastic people as well that thought the server name was hilarious. Freshfruit for example, you all know Freshfruit.

I think the subtle irony of our server name might be overlooked by the internet hordes. Can we change the name to something less prone to draw people even less mature than ourselves? :)

Oh did you gents run into another "I love to hear myself talk" crowd? Hell I say fight the power, rename the server "The South Shall Rise Again." That'll bring out all the internet's finest. |

They did another patch today, and added something called "Minimal HUD" which moves the health and ammo downward so it doesn't cover up so much real estate. I also noticed something all of you will want to crank to the max -- Field of View. At 90 degrees, the max, you can actually see people hiding behind doors as you go through. It's pretty sweet.
Both can be accessed through options->multiplayer.

Don't forget, they added Very High Resolution to the graphics options.
Actually does increase the non-player textures dramatically.

I am happy to report that the combination of the new Nvidia drivers and the patch from 9/28 allowed me to play as long as I wanted with no crashes. It was a hell of a lot of fun last night, even though I ended up on the short bus team getting repeatedly raped by F13ers (angry.bob and Samwise in particular). I was experimenting with different classes last night, so I was likely one of the retards setting up sentries in stupid places- I am still learning the maps, since I haven't been able to play longer than about 10 minutes at a time until last night.
I am all for changing the server name. I am a little uncomfortable with the image it portrays to those who don't grok the irony. I also got to use my admin powers last night to kick a retard who kept playing music through the voice channels. Probably my greatest contribution of the night :-D

It definitely doesn't play like a normal FPS. The maps are really cramped and confining, so there is more face to face action, dancing around corners, etc. It takes some getting used to for sure.

If you were babysitting your sentry, or at least staying within a few seconds' run, then you're better than most of the team I was playing with yesterday. If you weren't, you're part of the problem and will be seeing the business end of my bat sooner or later.  |

Hey, as far as achievements and stats go, can someone explain which are per-life, per-round, and per-map change?
If achievements say 'in one round', it actually means one life or until end of round - whichever comes first. The rest are obvious and state the measurement period. Average and max stats are also per-period-alive. Note that if you finish a round 'not out', that seems to count as a death for the purposes of calculating average/maximum points/kills etc. Which sucks just a little bit. |

I know it picked you off a few times, so it wasn't in a horrible spot |

I played around with the scout some yesterday and had a blast with it. Almost got my first capture on 2fort but got killed by a hidden spy like 5 feet from the cap. I really need to get my jumping down with it and I don't seem to be able to make the same spots that others do. Plus I think are just too fast for me to properly aim with, don't think I have the reflexes for that class for an extended period of time.
On granary I did have my best round as a scout when I ran behind the lines that were trying to cap the middle point and batmaned a medic and the 2 heavies he was healing to death, wish I had a screenie of that gem because it'll never happen again. Seconds after that I went running to my lines for healing and ran into another heavy and shottyed him in the face as well. It was a round that made me shout my love of the scout.... every round after that I was screaming at how shitty a scout I really am :(

Something that isn't obvious about the scout is that good ol' fashioned Half-Life crouch jumping can make your second jump just a bit higher. Once you get that down a lot of new paths open up on the maps.

I think I've got the medic down a bit, but still need to get my mic fixed or change some hot keys. I think I need some hot keys that let them know I'm gonna uber them and get ammo up so we can charge. I need one to yell to stay in my range, otherwise I can't keep them invulnerable.
Btw, is the doctor supposed to be able to 1 to 2 sawblade(knife) people? I'm pretty sure I was one shotting pyro's, soldiers, scouts, and spys with it.
I does seem the pyro is a bit over damaging right now, but I am able to keep some people alive if 1 vs 1, I can't heal threw two pyro's on one guy.
