BFBC Server

[Loon]

Well I check it every time I play but have yet to see a single person on it

Whats are the chances of getting a few of use together on a night to give it a bit of a go?

This week I will be able to play Tonight and Thursday for as long as I like, other nights may be able to get an hours pass if enough notice is given to the boss

The server was doing fine until it went to hardcore mode.

Maybe worth changing it again.

[Loon]

Do you ever use teamspeak?
If so if you are around tonight I am sure we can get togther?
If you try adding L00N with zeros to friends in BFBC to see if it works?

Was on/off for a couple of hours from around 6ish.

Couple of people joined, then the whole thing filled up in about 10-15mins.
Was good fun, and I def plan on playing this game more now.

[Loon]

I managed to get on 8:40 ish and saw monkey (who refused to speak )
Chaskins made it about 10 ish and Boone was unable to join as he had not got the latest patch lol (he did manage Teamspeak mind).
It was really good fun for the couple of hours I was on.

Just one question.
Do you have only conquest maps or do you rotate Rush in the mix as well?

Anyway was really good fun, shame I am now away for a week look frward to the next time.

I did say "lo all" in the chat after I saw you say hello, or did you mean over voice?

I'm such a noob I'm still learning and haven't even set the speech to not be all russian yet

I think you were one of the few kills I got though

Sadly the quickest kill I got in the couple of hours I was on was a team mate, turned and capped him straight off, all the opponents took me much longer!

This is what he said back in April about the config in the other thread:-

[PapaLaz]

Yeah the servers are pretty much dictated by EA, you can either run Rush or Conquest, but not a mix (unless something's changed - I went into the config and took a look last night, and no major changes to the options).

Disabled hardcore mode, and think I'll try to get on the server for at least a little bit each day - was amazed how quickly the numbers built up yesterday and was ace playing on a full server with good low pings.

I'll make a decision in the next month or two about whether to keep the server going. If we start playing it regularly and fill it up then great, otherwise it's a waste of £25 or so a month. Last night was a good start tho.

[deadmonkey]

Aye, there were about 20 on when I joined and still a dozen or so a couple of hours later, good work m8

[Loon]

Yes it was good fun, and yes I did noticed you killed me doh!!
When we were in the same squad did you hear me on voice?
Reason I ask is like you I have not bothered to set it up but thought I would give it a try. As nobody came back I assumed it did not work .

I am more than happy to throw some money into the server it it going to be used.

Its a shame hardcore did not take off but I do like the fact you have got rid of the kill cam, as it makes being a sniper much more fun

As you cant run a mix is it possible to swap between ruch/conquest say weekly or something?

Ping?
I was pinging in the mid 100's while I was not having any problems I did think it a little high. As I don't really bother to look at ping anymore if the game is playing well with no noticable lag this was the case lastnight. If asked what the ping was without looking I would have said round the <50 mark.


Right then off on holiday with Chaskins for a week so please don't think I am being rude if I dont talk

Cya all soon.

I didn't hear any players voices, but that's probably a server and a player setting?

Small samples, but Rush seems most popular:-

i play mostly Rush cos it has bit more action (its still slow..) than conquest. Dont worry dm, i usually gettin 1-3 kills/round, looks like i never learn to shoot with those shitty weapons.

Sry all, but have set the server to cancel after this month - couple of weeks left on it I think.

Server is getting some use but not as much as I'd like, admittedly mostly my fault as I just don't have time. Can't be arsed to spunk money away on it if even I ain't playing. Maybe set something up again when I have more free/gaming time.

[deadmonkey]

Good call pal, as you say it's a great thing to have, but none of us can put the hours in to keep it full atm.

I think/hope that with TS available it's not too tricky to hook up somewhere on the same server if you want to?
