    Ya, CnC in normal rotation? Bad idea.

    As for seeder maps? The fasted and earliest I have ever seen the server seed was when we were running Muttrah as our seeder during the .874b part of the beta test. Admittedly some of that was likely due to people just showing up for the Beta. If asset spamming on low populations is the problem, we can always use the 16 players versions of Kashan and Muttrah. Most people won't know the difference until they're already loading up, and by that time they might just decide to stay.

    Re: seeder map

    leaving out the new maps, which we will hopefully be able to play soon

    I'd say a skirmish map is a good seeder.

    Re: seeder map

    Seeder...I gotta say that some of the INS maps (not Tali) and the fairly small number of AAS maps that work well with a widely varying number of players are the best (well, duh).
    I think those maps are stuff like Ramiel or Koz 16 or the like where there are limited numbers of toys but still enough to make things interesting with limited numbers of people, both for just messing around (under maybe 20, seeding) and actually playing once we get enough for 2 or 3 squads per team. On the other hand, stuff with serious transport requirements or heavy assets (Cuda/Jabal/Muttrah or Kashan/Quin), while it might be good for pulling in random people who just want to play with assets, is not so much help with getting good quality people or good quality games, as if someone comes along and crashes all your choppers into the sea in 5 minutes on Cuda, or runs tanks into each other in main on Kashan, that team is in trouble.

    Somewhat unrelatedly, Road To Kyongan'Ni is IMO both a decent seeder and a great break between "real" maps - i.e. Kashan 64, Kyongan'Ni, Basra, Jabal kind of deal. I personally think it's one of the best 1km AAS maps, and as far as I've seen woefully underplayed.

    Even more unrelatedly, BRDMs are awesome. I want one for Christmas.

    Need more CnC on:

    Personally, I never even look at the map while joining, because I know you guys will always give me a great experience.

    Re: seeder map

    Put Kashan 32/64 to start filling the server, then to punish the guys that only joined for the assets - put Asad Khal right after kashan, lol

    Re: seeder map

    Is there anyway to adjust the player count with the game's values? Like when there is no one on the server kits only need 1 person in the squad, respawn times are halfed...Then once it reaches 30 peeps or so it goes to normal mode?

    Re: seeder map

    bullseye , kashan 64 is currently on and its not helping much, ive joined then goreziad joined and we had some fun for 20-30 min doing truck races, but then 2 more joined and ive been an took a shower for 5 min, when i come back, i see orpall mad because hes been tk by some jets and then OSOlkiller or something like this went base rape on orpall again in the a10 and the server didnt filled up at all.


    Kashan 64 bad idea for seedin.....

    yes i agree its gonna attract player, but it obviously doesnt attract the "regular"......... its attracts players who doesnt care about the rules or the others players and just go and base rape because they are bored..

    Re: seeder map

    Seeding isn't so much the map as it is day of the week and time of day as well as the fact that some of our morning players have simply moved on to other servers, other game titles, or just moved on. There isn't a magical formula to attract new players unless we all start wearing Marine's Twilight cologne.

    You won't need any kits anyway. Medic would be cool but 90 percent of the time you would have at least two people in your squad. All the special kits that need more than 7 people on the server don't fill the right role with seeding.

    That's all they want....map a map called "Blackhawk Down" And have nothing but heli's. Server would be insta-filled.
    How about a map with no terrain, just 16 apaches and 16 havocs?

    Or better yet, 32 of each so every one could be 1 manned.

    NO, you need flame - fire meets desire. Is that you Dispo in the ad?
