Kenger June 28, 2005 Share Kenger Member June 28, 2005 I am not sure how to really ask this, but i was wondering if the members of .gc would put up like a vote or something about getting a battlefield 2 server. I have played on your guys' counter-strike servers when i get a chance and i enjoy the atmosphere you all have provided there. I am willing to help you guys out like 50 dollars every 3 or 6 months? Not sure how that will work but u can shoot me an im or private msg about it. I'm just really looking for a server where i can play regularly without getting hassled and cussed at when i drive the dunebuggy off the bridge or crash the helicopter into the power lines thanks guys. -kenger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whudats June 29, 2005 Share whudats Member June 29, 2005 Hey man, both the Admin group and the Board Members are discussing this now. There will be an announcement when a decision is made or an action plan is agreed upon. Thanks for your kind words. FYI, in the meantime, if you want to join the Coalition, read this (Standards) then this (Joining). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty June 29, 2005 Share Fatty GC Founder June 29, 2005 I think he's saying he'd join if we opened a BF2 server. Someone with BF2 try to join 66.219.146.146:16567 for me just to see if it's actually available. This is my first setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shep48 June 29, 2005 Share shep48 Member June 29, 2005 can I get on there with the demo version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mongoloido June 29, 2005 Share mongoloido Member June 29, 2005 can I get on there with the demo version? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't think so. Certainly not with it set to 64 player and running a map that didn't come with the demo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shep48 June 29, 2005 Share shep48 Member June 29, 2005 ok can we set up the server to play the demo version then all gc can jump on and check it out??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty June 29, 2005 Share Fatty GC Founder June 29, 2005 there's plenty of demo servers out there. find one of those. just cover your ears. you'll be ok. <checks shep's gear, and anti-public punk spray, etc...and sends him on his way> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brew Swillas June 29, 2005 Share Brew Swillas Member June 29, 2005 Setting up the server for the demo may be a pretty good idea. That way more GC members can try the game if they do not already own the retail version. It may give a better gauge as to what interest there is around the community. Problem is I already uninstalled the demo....and I am at work. I will glady hop onto the server later tonight if it is still up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shep48 June 29, 2005 Share shep48 Member June 29, 2005 lol geared up. I went out there, I like it, I just dont know if it has the long term appeal that cs has for me. I would like to play with u guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VooDooPC June 29, 2005 Share VooDooPC Member June 29, 2005 (edited) It sure does ping nicely. Edit: Though my opinion means nothing. Too me it makes more sense to have a small server. If 8 people in the community play it and theres a 32 person server. What are the chances anyone would see eachother if we were all on at once? And i highly doubt we'd all manage to be on at once so it would be something like 2 people out of 32 people being community members. It would be just like playing on some random pub server. If it was a 16 person server the battles would be much close quarters and we'd see eachother with no problems. Also if we got quite a few community members on, even something like 4 members are on thats 1/4th of the server. 4 people you can chill with, drive around in a jeep without worrying about hitting trees or flying a helicopter and not worry about being called a newb becuase you crashed into the side of a silo. Last but not least with a smaller server it would be much easier to admin. Take one of the current CSS servers, take out all but 4 community members and add 28 TKing, swearing it up e-thugs. Thats what i imagine it being like. Edit2: Less people means less lag too. Just my honest and worthless opinion!

whudats June 29, 2005 Share whudats Member June 29, 2005 VooDoo you make a good point about the size. A smaller map would be easier to admin and would have more of a community feel. The only disappointing thing about the smaller maps is the limitation on vehicles - no planes, fewer helicopters, etc. - and that's one of the very fun things about the game (although I can't fly them to save my life). If you see me in a helicopter or jet, don't get in... By the way, if we still have it going (Fatty) I'll be on the GC BF2 server tryout tonight at about 10pm Eastern. Anybody else?

VooDooPC June 29, 2005 Share VooDooPC Member June 29, 2005 I'll be there so i can cream you two with my leet helocopter skillz! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatty June 29, 2005 Share Fatty GC Founder June 29, 2005 Hey, if someone can tell me how to change things, I will gladly reduce it. That's totaly default. I can't see anything even remotely similar to a server.cfg. I'll have to put m0m on it or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VooDooPC June 29, 2005 Share VooDooPC Member June 29, 2005 I don't know how running a server works with a seperate box and such but they a have a BF2ServerLauncher.exe in the Battlefield 2 folder. From there you can create server profiles and change settings, maps, ect, and click "start" to start the dedicated server. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayfarer June 29, 2005 Share wayfarer Member June 29, 2005 Are you guy's working off of the demo or the full version? If your working off the demo can someone "link" me to it? I could'nt get the last one to work & I'd like to get a "piece" of this "pie" ! Thank-You! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
