Server status?

**Bernout** · 01-04-2008, 01:36 AM

Not that I've tried very often but I've heard from some friends lately that when they've tried to hit the TG server it was down. Or in the case of tonight it was sitting empty. Is this due to the stability of the server and the need for admins to keep it up and running? Was my timing bad? Or did Ikonic call it when he mentioned a possible sudden loss of interest? Mind you the new PR release I'm sure isn't helping.

I havent played on the TG server in a few weeks. I play on the WOLFgaming or WAW servers. TG never has more than 15-20 people in it from what Ive seen.

The server frequently was full when FH2 was released and has been sitting empty for the last couple of weeks. Has the TG community grown tired of the mod??? ... have they been playing PR instead???

As far as I could tell, the TG server was pretty stable and the VOIP actually worked! At least half the FH2 servers out there seem to have lag spikes and broken VOIP. I don't hear anyone on the wolfgaming server... don't know if the VOIP problem is their server or my setup but it doesn't work for me.

I know when the mod was first released we had a lot of our BF2 admins giving it a try. Even then it seemed like the server needed to be restarted fairly frequently which prompted my question as to the stability of the server.

And ya, with PR 0.7 that server has been almost constantly full. I don't know if we're going to see any FH2 traction until the next patch is released? And I have to suspect Apophis and crew are going to start questioning the $$$ needed to maintain the server in the meantime.

When FH2 came out the FH2 TG server was usually populated, but now that PR released their new verison it seems that FH2 has died. I really like FH2 and now that PR.07 has no SL spawning, I want to play FH2 more now than PR.

The general FH2 population were from the general PR base assuming that it was a WWII version of PR. Oops.

The primary reason why the TG server is empty is it's instability.

My $.02:

1) It got released at a bad time - A lot of people tried it once and then left for the holidays. So they got a bad/lasting first impression of a bunch of people TK'ing each other and trying to get used to the dynamics of the game play.

2) Much anticipated PR0.7 dropped shortly after, so that got a lot of attention.

3) There are some balance issues on the maps (ticket counts, bleed rates, etc), as with any first release - I assume this will be fixed shortly

4) Map sizing. Just today, we installed our map autosizing script. This dynamically sets the appropriate size map according to player population. Over the past few weeks, it's been difficult seeding since the server was always on 64p maps. Now we'll get a chance to try the (very fun) smaller versions of the maps.

FH2 definitely isn't dead at TG - it just hasn't been gathering much momentum for the above reasons. It'll be getting back populated more and more... especially since most of the issues aren't difficult to resolve.

Thanks for the update Whiskey, it's nice to see that there are efforts to put our name back on the map. Have you found a fix to the crashes?

p.Vicious · 01-06-2008, 11:35 AM

I found myself trying to get the FH2 server going in the afternoons the past week, but it didn't happen. But I agree with whiskey FH2 isn't dead, more like just resting. With a few updates FH2 should be up and running again.

**WhiskeySix** · 01-06-2008, 12:14 PM

I'm on the server now if anyone wants in on some small-teams games on 16p maps

**khaerus** · 01-06-2008, 04:31 PM

I only had a couple guys come in to shoot me on the server this afternoon, but the small maps for small populations are a great thing. Much more enjoyable to have the scaling happen.

I'd like to join but honestly I havent seen you server on my servers list.
I am really looking forward to join because all other servers i played during last few days were full of newbie vanilla kids and absolutely without team play and communication between players which make this MOD flat

sculls · 01-12-2008, 10:08 AM

Come on play this thing, ive been giving it a lash for the past few days on pubbies and its been quite fun, why is the server empty? its more polished than POE2 and hey its like 1942 with bf2 graphics. It will only show thats its any good when its been played by TG .
Come on Play this fecker.
