Hi All
I know the publics have been dead for a while and since taking over as JK2 Community Liaison, I've been asking myself "why?". Anyway, I came up with 2 main reasons and I'm looking into ways of solving the problems.
Firstly Subscribers wont join an empty server, but we want people to play on the Public servers. Does anyone remember the benefits of playing in a subscriber arena? You know, where people actually played and didn't have 2 or 3 people chatting and taking up Player Slots? Or when you didn't have the grumpy 13 year old who was unhappy with the world and was willing to slag every man and his dog off?
Anyway.
This is it, I wanna start pushing to get people back into the BW Publics. Yes I know they're always empty but all we need to do is get people organised.
For those of you who use IRC, we have a community room setup, #BWJK2 on Quakenet. Feel free to join any time arround 8pm (ish) and we'll start getting some games going in the Publics. There are enough subscribers arround to get a few games going its all a matter of getting us together at the same time in the same place to do something about it.
Secondly the servers may not be configured the way players want them. This is easily fixed. If you have requests for server configs and suggestions on improving the service e.g. Mods Gametypes PlayerLimits then let me know, I'll get it sorted. BW will be adding the JK2 boxes to the "Community Server Scheme" in the near future allowing me control of Mods etc. But in the meantime all the Admins and I have the Rcon for Cvar tweaks should you so desire.
Finally, I hope you can see that it may be quiet at the moment but given time we'll get things going. You've paided for your subscriptions and we're giving you a chance to use them.
