PixelBitZombie Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 I realize the servers are down but I'm curious just how dead the actual scene is.
jks101 Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 A few people occasionally join. the servers are up btw
PixelBitZombie Posted July 29, 2015 Author Posted July 29, 2015 I'll have to check again, thanks for the heads up.
StJohn Gumby Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 I play TF2. We should organise an RC event on the server to introduce members/players here to the server. If ice wants me to, I'll help organise it. Maybe have some basic PL, CP, and PLR maps. Gumby
ice187dna Posted July 29, 2015 Posted July 29, 2015 Hey guys, For some reason for a few days the servers were up and running and we had moved up in the ranks and started to get popular however for some reason when the gametracker.com site stopped showing them being online, regular players thought they were dead so now we are back to square one. We did have players on server #3 last night. Again it's trying to get them back up in the ranks again. I also noticed they the servers didn't show up on my favourites tab in TF2 for a few days either so it did look like they were all offline as most players do favourite their servers so they can just bring up that list and get on the server. There will be some changes next week to all the Team Fortress 2 servers. Having 5 of them is too much and it will be when I start uni in Sept to keep on top so they will be cut back to 3. Once you get 2 or 3 players on a server usually people join in. There will be: 1 x Normal Server. 1 x MVM Server. 1 x Prop Hunt Server. Gumby - I'm up for an TF2 event. If you want to organize it then I'd appreciate it.
PixelBitZombie Posted July 30, 2015 Author Posted July 30, 2015 Heck I'd be down. I just got into TF2, I'm a late bloomer I guess. 5 days old
StJohn Gumby Posted July 30, 2015 Posted July 30, 2015 Gumby - I'm up for an TF2 event. If you want to organize it then I'd appreciate it. We would need to do it before you start Uni, then. Give me a date, a Saturday, before then and I'll try to bully RC members into taking part. Gumby 1
StJohn Gumby Posted August 7, 2015 Posted August 7, 2015 Too short notice. If you want it organised and people persuaded to come play would need a week at least, maybe two. Gumby
StJohn Gumby Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Great, Now i got a TF2 event and a Commwar vs TK2. It never rains but it pours. Pencil out the Saturday/Sunday after next. Gumby Ice, propose a date.
AnThRaX Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Would love to play some organized TF2 with you guys!
ice187dna Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Gumby - you pick a date since mine are too short notice.
StJohn Gumby Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 Ok, Saturday 29th. Start around 7 p.m. GMT, 2 p.m. EST. Set up the Server with a simple rotation. Say, a PL, a CTF, a CP, and a PLR map. People can just drop in for a few games or stay all evening. Particularly want new people to come along and try the game out. Should be fun if we get people on TS. For anyone who doesn't know Team Fortress 2 is a steam game and is completely free to download and play. It's a class based FPS with an RTS element (kinda like Renegade it's much better with teamwork) but there are no vehicles (infantry only). The graphics are cartoony but the game is as funny as hell. Have a look at this vid, gives you some idea of the characters and gameplay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l62OY19rZ7k Gumby
StJohn Gumby Posted August 13, 2015 Posted August 13, 2015 If Ice let's me know the date is ok and can set up the server, I'll do a proper event sign up thread. Like I said, I want to get as many RC members to come and play as possible. Even if you never played before. The action is intense, it's basically a complete slaughterhouse, but it's as funny as hell. Gumby and jks, you better make it. Also I've got a bribe for Volcom to turn up. And shai I expect you too, you can be Heavyweapons guy 1
AnThRaX Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Isn't the 29th of August the same weekend as the Jelly last ever games event, I think quite a few of our members signed up for that.
ice187dna Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 That's twice I heard about the Jelly thing....#weekendclash. I don't get this either....I had 5 servers, they were at 8000 ranking when I had problems with it showing up on game tracker....they went down to 6200 or 6100 ranking now they are slowly going back to 6500 ranking....talk about closing servers down and backfiring lool. Happy days, win some , loose some.
StJohn Gumby Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Isn't the 29th of August the same weekend as the Jelly last ever games event, I think quite a few of our members signed up for that. I don't think most of the people at Rencorner who are likely to play TF2 give a shit about Jelly. Of course, some of the Renegade guys (who I'd like to participate in this) do. There's a Renegade commwar vs TK2 on Sunday 6th Sept so how about Saturday 5th? I know it might be tight so is that ok with you Ice? Gumby
vlatkozelka Posted August 16, 2015 Posted August 16, 2015 I'm down for both events , I just need to download TF2 XD
theilsomers Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 I would also say that I saw the event post you made on the tf2 forums maybe you should put one up on general chat cause people who do t play tf2 I doubt they would even look in the tf2 forum page.
StJohn Gumby Posted August 22, 2015 Posted August 22, 2015 Good Point. I'll also put it in the Shoutbox at increasing frequency as the date approaches. Gumby
