    Re: Second Server?

    I thought putting archer on the private server now might be ideal


    If you find yourself in a fair fight, then you have obviously failed to plan properly.

    Re: Second Server?

    I say yes but do not use it in .75
    It will just end up really bad, wait until .8 before putting this server in.

    Insurgency is a great way to get away from the repetitiveness of AAS and with the hopeful fixes in .8 insurgency should be great.

    Damnit Blizzard, fix ZvT already >.<

    Re: Second Server?

    Guys, the plan is that the new server WILL NOT be put up until 0.8 is released assuming the second server gets the green light, so thats a non-issue. From my limited understanding, 0.8 will include fixes for the current INS maps (basrah/archer) and will be adding new ones (korengal that we know of).

    It will also bring new AAS maps, so the rotation on a single server would be HUGE. By that, I mean we'd be looking at all of the maps we currently play in all their variations, plus al basrah and archer, plus whatever new maps 0.8 brings (thats over 20 maps in a rotation! you'd have to play for a full day to play them all). The second server will be used for INS maps only, and probably limited events. Scrims and such will still be held on the private or main public server more than likely.

    So, key thing to remember:
    THE NEW SERVER WONT EVEN BE AN OPTION UNTIL AFTER 0.8 COMES OUT.

    In other words, stop bringing that up, it's already been thought of.

    Re: Second Server?

    I voted yes for the simple reason Ferris mentioned:

An insurgency server would allow us to have one focus on AAS and one on INS, making it much easier to get your fill of all the maps. I'm all for the idea, especially considering insurgency will be a viable gamestyle in 0.8.
    From my previous experience with new maps, most were taken off the server before I even got the chance to play them. The rotation would be too big with all the new maps and we would barely get the chance to play them.

    I wouldn't abandon the current server for it, but I would switch if a map loads that I dislike.

    Re: Second Server?

    I think an insurgency server would rock hard. There's only really one dedicated INS 64 server out there that I know of, and I have good times on it. Open-ended gameplay is fun.

    No - INS brings in smacktards that know little about the game. Just look at BattleArena.

    Good in concept, but it would polarize.

    Re: Second Server?

    I like the idea as it will cause variation in the different types. I'm just afraid the public will only go to server 1 and that server 2 will sit there empty most of the time. Is there enought interest for a ins only?

    It might be a good idea to set all the maps running on the first server when 0.8 comes out, and then see what happens. If it's too massive of a rotation, we can then try to move the INS maps over to the second server. But if the INS map makes the main server unstable, then we def should move them to the second server at 0.8 release.

    Re: Second Server?

    Skud I agree it would polarize the population to a degree and INS does seem to attract the less mature players. I just think it would allow a fuller rotation. Plus if we have to have INS maps and I do want to play Archer and Korengal in particular lets keep the smacktards off the AAS server as much as possible. They can run around suiciding to their hearts content till we get bored of AAs then invade the INS server and hammer them lol.

    Re: Second Server?

    Yes, Insurgency mode will bring in smacktards.

    So will running CS:S, POE2, BF2142, COD4, TF2, and Domination mode in ARMA, what with it's infinite ammo and respawns.

    Yet we run all of these things, and quite successfully. I really doubt that the regulars who populate the servers and the admins would be unable to cope with the influx of new people.

    Re: Second Server?

    I think we should wait for the release of 0.8 and get a feel for the new insurgency maps to see if the gameplay they facilitate is worth having a new TG server for. As it stands I don't think the current maps justify it.

    Re: Second Server?

    I'd love to see the an TG insurgency server, but mainly that depends on the maps that will be available, if it constantly switches between Archer and Basrah the fun would be of short duration, but tbh i'd really love to test that for a while and if works well we should keep it.

    Life's too short to live it fast.

    Re: Second Server?

    Yes, definitely a good idea but as was said before we need more ins maps which i hope will arrive in 0.8 and without bugs making server crash..
