I've had no issue right-clicking on a friend and accessing "View Game Info." I do however have issues with NS2 servers they are playing on not responding with the player list.

Game info is showing players in server today, at least when i'm out of game and view info of a friend. Strange, it didn't work for me at home last night. Was there a patch?

Not that I know of.

On a semi-related note, the NS forum is kind of a mess. You can't even see the current list of admins and there's going to be loads of stuff that isn't related to NS2. This is to be expected considering the downtime TGNS has had.

That said, have fun cleaning things up sucker. I'll be playing NS2.

Implying you're not going to be conscripted at skulk point...

Hi all, been a long time. I've been playing on other servers for now, since TG is always full. I'll be starting up my SM again once there's a reserve slot system in place though, so hopefully I'll be seeing you then.

Lagarto - I'm running a 2.4 GHz processer with 4 gigs of RAM, and ns2 had been completely unplayable for me throughout the alpha and beta, but now it runs pretty smoothly with 35 fps.

Just popping in after a 6+ year absence to tell you all that I'm ready to own the **** out of you like the old NS days.

In all seriousness, happy to see a lot of the old names still floating around here. Look forward to playing with y'all again, given I can land a spot on the server

We'll whip this server into shape soon enough. TBH, I was a little off-put last night when asking for a mic check 2-3 times (in text as well) and I heard a whole lot of nothing in response. I think my issue is that I originally came into TG on an established NS server and I'm expecting more of that rather than, say, the brutal hilarity of when BF2 launched.

That said, mic checks are important people. If someone asks for one, give them the info they need (too loud, soft, just right) or if you see someone's mic queuing but no sound coming from them, inform them of this fact so they can correct either their mic being tagged when it isn't supposed to be or the mic not working at all.

Fenix, It's already getting better. I've been on the past few nights and more and more I'm seeing communication happen. It will be nice once it's required and enforced similarly to how TGNS was!

**TheFeniX** · 11-06-2012, 09:53 PM

Server seems to be bucking a bit under load. Lots of choke.

**Tempus** · 11-07-2012, 11:12 AM

That was happening to me last night too. I didn't notice it on prior nights. Could it be related to the admin mods Wyzcrak installed?

**TheFeniX** · 11-07-2012, 11:44 AM

It's definitely a possibility, but I don't have enough experience with how the server handles while playing (before the admin tool) to really say for sure. I need to actually enable the net stat interface next time I'm on to see exactly what's happening. I'm assuming it's choke solely based on my experience from other games like NS1 and Counter-Strike.

**Boogalo** · 11-08-2012, 07:01 PM

I'm finally getting a chance to play since the changes, and it does feel like it chugs a bit at times.

Miko, your rabbit wearing a pancake needs fixing

Just to tell you all know;

I am aware that our current server isn't keeping up with demand. I'll be provisioning a new server through Multiplay this week to take it's place.

I will post up the new IP address / server info as soon as its online. I would expect to see it Tuesday/Wednesday of this week.
