New Hypernia Server Stress Test : Thu 19th Apr, 2007 @ 9PM EDT



We will be shutting off the main server on Thursday night to get everyone together on the new faster, stronger and slightly more attractive Hypernia server for a stress test. We'll be testing a mix of a few game modes and vanilla / NS maps, so bring your friends to break it in.

Does it have to be NS?
I don't have it yet :P

EDIT/Question: Can people without the NS booster still play on the non-NS maps?

The test will mostly focus on Vanilla.. After that, we may try Titan and/or NS. You do not need to have NS to play on the server for non-NS maps.

Well exactly how will it go down? We just go in and play and see how the server holds? Or do we have to do specific thing to see if the server can take it? Like throwing a shoe at it or something.

Re: New Hypernia Server Stress Test : Thu 19th Apr, 2007 @ 9PM EDT

So it will have a different IP, right? And a different server name? I have the TG servers in my favorites list, so I am wondering how that will be affected. I will try to get on to help test. Oh, and where is this server in the country?

Just do a search in multiplayer under Tacticalgamer.com that night. Yes I know that is foreign to most of you who have never strayed from TG.

I'll try to show, but I may be more inclined to do homework and study for my calculus test on Friday.

Ah... I miss Titan mode with its uncanny ability to kill teamplay, encourage APM spam, use of the recon class, spamming the AA turret at the enemies hangar bay sheild, and overall instabillity. But somehow I can't resist coming back for more. If I can get my homework done, then I will be there.

Oh, if Xprmnt626 thinks I'm bad in conquest, wait till I get onto a titan. I'll often find myself trapped at a terminal with no one to help me.

Well, that was interesting. After loading Suez Titan, the server shut down. Then loaded Tunis conquest and gave a "server is shutting down" message and crashed. Restarted, loaded Tunis again and it crashed once more, this time with only 3 people in it.

I played two rounds and seemed to have a lower ping than normal. Though, it did not seem to run any smoother than the previous which was never bad for me. I did crash when the Titan map loaded and had to reconnent.
