FreddysHouse Call of Duty 4 Server

[Mike]

There is now a FreddysHouse CoD4 server online for general use:

193.138.95.210:28960 (FreddysHouse | TDM #1)

The server is a fairly standard TDM setup, and features live PunkBuster banning and cheat detection. If this proves popular further instances will be added in the future.

Any issues please /msg MikeC on IRC.

Giv CoD4 PC 4 Cheaper!

 

[Himse]

Will give it a bash at some point this week

 

[throdgrain]

Ive played a bit of CoD4 lately, but S-D not TDM

 

[darkman[X]]

Think I might grab CoD4 for PC. Played the single player which was ridiculously short, but not played not MP.

 

[throdgrain]

You need a modded server really Darky, the nade spam on standard is rediculous

 

[Mike]

The plan is to create a more realistic/sensible instance if the server proves popular enough. By this I mean hardcore with strikes, helis and some nades disabled. This will of course be unranked, whereas the current one is ranked.

So, get pimping the details to your clans/mates. The first hurdle on the path to another instance is getting the current one full for loadtesting purposes.

Nice, I'll try to add it to my favs.

hardcore is bestest !
wandered past a few times, always seems to be empty at the mo - anyone up for a set time, somewhen, to try to get it going, and see how we get on ?

More or less the only thing I play (when I play it that is )
This AWE mod people have seems to be good ...

OK the second server is now up - hopefully this will serve as an incentive for people to join the FH servers.

193.138.95.210:28961 (FreddysHouse | TDM #2 (Hardcore))

This is a ModWarfare server, meaning it is *unranked*. In addition to hardcore more, the friendly fire is also on (somewhat of an experiment - I want this server to be for people who actually think when they play and get a decent game), and also the 3x frag grenade perk is disabled (though you can still use the 1x you get by default).

If you have any feedback or comments on the servers please drop me a PM or reply below.

 

[throdgrain]

It still says its TDM though

 

[Mabs]

imo, you really need S&D, or something similair that involves people needing to come out from dark corners to win, otherwise it will just be a campfest

 

[throdgrain]

I'd have to agree personally, though the massive number on empty S-D servers on the browser makes me think I might be alone ...

 

[Mike]

TDM is hugely popular on publics due to the fact that you can play how you like and join/leave as you want. S&D is more of a competitive gametype imo - once you die you're dead - something which I don't think is at all suitable for public servers, unless it is one frequently used by clans to practice for matches.

But hey, I'm just basing these opinions on what I've seen and experienced in other places. If you can put together a solid plan for other types (to show why they're needed), then be my guest.

 

[throdgrain]

Its suitable for me, I wouldnt stay long on a server that wasnt SD, it all seems a bit pointless, and yes I have tried it, only today

HQ / DOM + Hardcore + KILLCAM!

I would love a decent server running HQ/DOM & TDM in Hardcore & Killcam enabled...but NO S&D....I just can't see the fun of spectating for a minute or 2 if you die early in S&D...which always seems to end up as a simple sneak around last man standing affair on publics.

HQ & DOM give you objectives without too much hanging around being dead...and KillCam enabled means you don't get too much hanging around in corners camping/sniping (or if they do you can hunt them down and exact a sweet revenge

 

[throdgrain]

You guys are just frustrated Quake players


Ive been playing on that OMG server, plays hardcore, S&D, modded for shorter nade throws, as perfect as it gets at the moment.

 

[Mabs]

HQ and Dom are ok, but dm and tdm are just HideInDarkCornersAndSnipeLol wastes of time

ill shall try to pop on at some point today, see if we can get it going
and do we have any form of admin btw ?

TDM will give you aids.

 

[Mike]

There was a bit of an impromptu gathering on TDM #1 today, we managed to get 16 people on at one point, and got some thoroughly good games out of it.

Perhaps we could make it a regular fixture?

 

[Jimmy]

i had about a bunch of my customers joining in as well

regular fixture would be fun

im about later today for more fun if anyone is up for it
