Lag, Size, popularity and cash...

[All Kill3r]

wasn't playing when there was lag issues, but i played a few maps today and had no lag at all.

[Penty]

I've seen no lag, the question is, is it because of the reboot or because of fewer players? You might want to consider upping the player count angain to confrim.

havent been in for few days cuz school is hammering me right now since im taking 7 hours of math over summer and i got my sis wedding this weekend.. but ...

 

 

hahahaha ubernoob bots getitng ya down

 

bots shouldnt be higher than player skill so for like ubernoob i guess a good bot level would be begginer

 

 

ps no lag 18 is all good.. u can add the mod back prolly be ok

 

maybe utcomp1.3 brightskins onslaught with hit sounds !!!!!!!!!

and voting for deathmatch play every now and again woohooo

roughinery/grend/asbestos!!!!!

[Brillow_Head]

we institue change slowly to keep the players comming, but I wouldn't mind the utcomp mod...I like how you can customize the skin...its got my vote!

[cutelittlerabbit]

tru dat man.. map rotation as well.. need to find some more maps to play maybe swap it up for some double elimination sometimes or some other modes.. just keep things changed up its ok to keep things 90% onslaught sometimes you just need a break..

 

and with bombing run in ut2k4 its not so abusive like in ut2k3...

now you cant throw ball and instant translocate behind it and self score really... dunno im just a simple cave man lawyer..

 

 

btw brillow/uber if u wanna 1v1 sometime pm me or something we can arrange a time or something ..

[Brillow_Head]

If you know a good server for Bombrun or DM...post it up...we may not use Mobocracy for it...but we GC have been known to wander off server on occasion

[random_n00b]

Yeah it's great to play with no lag now (well, other than the usual ping delay). Was also a pleasant surprise to find Frostbite in the rotation earlier.

 

And if there are to be any other game modes added, then double domination definately has my vote. I know that 4 player DD on my friend's xbox is hella fun, but with 18 players...

[cutelittlerabbit]

played for a bit today:

 

18 player limit is cold im pinging freaking great alot of fun

the uadmin mod causes some hicups when players join or when you first join but other than that its cool i guess..

 

btw what does this admin mod actually do ? i mean is a need or could we live with something like utsecure or utcomp... just trying to figure out why we are using it..

 

 

but at any rate.. gotta love faster game play now was pinging 30-50 earlier and thats big improvement from the 90-130

I will, but I've also heard that 20 player ONS hurts the CPU....but then why are there still plenty of 20's and up?

 

Upping back to 20...if lag returns, we know. Please report back.

[urk?!?]

My contacts over at Recongamer tell me that a 20 person ONS server uses up about 40% CPU. So if (and there always are) other servers hosted on that box, well it's going to lag the heck outta the box, especially with bots.

[Fatty]

Wouldn't that percentage be dependent on the type of cpu?

[dwEEziL]

ReconGamer probably has very similar systems across the board (which I would also assumed would be a pretty standard system for most game server renters) so they can make a blanket analysis statement like that.

[Playaa]

HEY!

if you people are gonna play a Bombing Run game somewhere..FIND ME!

even if you hafta hunt down my cell-phone number

[Brillow_Head]

Bad Lagg again. I've felt and heard. 18 was cherry.

[cutelittlerabbit]

yes 20 = lag again. try 20 without the admin mod... next....

but i think 18 is the sweet number..

 

 

ps idle kick time is way to high.. i was sitting still for under a min eatting some chicken salad and it was trying to boot me already...

 

and for spec i was speccing someone and i got booted within a min also..*unless specing is a GC no timelimit only thing*

[Brillow_Head]

We've set the idle time to 32 seconds...big debate...and 32 was decided.

 

UAmod doesn't seem to be working at the moment.

[cutelittlerabbit]

32 seconds not 30 or 35 lol nice

 

btw stats for me isnt showing my ultra kill i got today

o well doesnt show dominating and unstoppabe for me either but its just self boasting at any rate

[hyperactiveChipmunk]

It's the max you can go, unfortunately...either nuttin' at all or 32.

 

-hC

[cutelittlerabbit]

bleh thats lame i guess its just a onslaught problem really.. other servers i play dont set idle time and force respawn so if your idling ur stats are going down because ur going to die over and over and over

 

 

 

o btw ...... there is a spawn safty timer on ? maybe 1 second or something.. because i was mowing people down spawning at a node and when they respawned they got hit but didnt die on first pass ? or did i just miss (unlikely )

There is a spawn safety timer on just for that purpose.

[Penty]

yeah some really bad lag tonite at 20.

[cutelittlerabbit]

bleh with no spawn safty i can get wicked sick alot easier

[Fatty]

-spawn protection is 2 (range is 2 to 30)

-max back to 18

-max idle kick time is 32 seconds...sorry bro, nothing we can do because we're not doing no-kicking

-bub has a lot on his plate, use the web admin for now, he'll get it working asap.

[Brillow_Head]

I don't need UAmod...really...its an admins toy...nothing more...

[Brillow_Head]

I did notice today that spectators have a ping of about 255 and stays that way until they join or leave...could that be a source of lagg?
