Preview Server Details

[bigfoot]

We now have a preview server up and running for Q3CTF, it will shortly be running the player kicking software which ensures there are sufficient spaces for Subscribers to join and play if they wish to - Note that if you are a Subscriber you must login first if you are a Subscriber and do not want to be kicked.

Quake 3 Version - 1.32
OSP Version - 1.03
PunkBuster - Enabled
Maps - Threewave, OSPCTF2, MAPEL4NOBFG, ON-XCTF3, STRONGHOLDv2, STCHCTF9A.

Blimy nice one

There are plenty of other OSP CTF servers that currently lie idle. It's gonna need quite a kick start to get this one off the ground.

Fingers crossed.

friendly fire

first the good news...just come off the Q3 Preview server (Sunday night 10pm) from a few 5v5 & 6v6 games...WooHoo!!

server was also nice & smooth.

the bad news is...team damage is ON and the map rotation is a little odd (Q3CTF3 !).

anyway...lets all hope there are plenty more nights like this.

Map voting should be enabled so the rotation shouldn't be too much of a bother.

Will get the friendlyfire thing sorted though :>.

you need to try this with a couple of CA servers, public ctf/tdm never works, but ca is more the opposite.

On the contrary, there's 3 CTF servers which are usually LOADED (xs4cheats, quakezero ebola 3 and 4). I agree joining a TDM match mid game makes no sense though.

CTF and CA seem best fit for publics and maybe a ffa osp instagib (dm17 anyone?) server like blueyonder are running.

This is lovely news Biff.

Servers

A FFA server wouldn't go amiss. There's so many rank 24 player ones that everyone uses, I'm sure they'd prefer a 8-12 maxclients server with decent maps (5, 6, 7, 8, 11, 14 etc?)
