Hello,
I play by the name as EEasykill, if any of you guys know me, and I just wanted to say I'm really enraged at all the little things that really piss people of in the server. First of all is the horrible RAGE QUITTING. It just dries the zombies nuts especially on a big map like Infinity where people desperatly try to get humans. And talking about Infinity, that map also just grinds my gears. It's a horrible map for zombies with all the spots for camping and mix that up with rage quitting and you get hell. Just wondering if you can take that map out of the rotation or something.
Since you guys own phasor, I'm wondering if there is some sort of settings in which you can get a person's hash code so that they will have to complete at least one game as a zombie in order to be human. So if a person rage quits, and joines later in a different game he/she will be zombie. That I think will stop rage quitting a bunch.
And finally,
THE LAG. It's unbearable for everyone other game to crash. It either crashes or freezes for a couple of minutes.
Im terribly sorry to be complaining and making a long thread about the flaws but if you can make my first to request come true, I guarantee it will be more fair for others. Thanks for your time reading this post

All valid points. I agree with everything you said except for making people go zombie in different game. As much of a ballbuster it is when people rage quit, they should be given the choice if they want to play or not. Or pershap someone get disconnected then later are able to join, but now they are zombie. Should they be punish because they have crappy internet connection?
The Lag is the biggest problem with the server, i agree.
Thanks for posting this!

well since im the only server dev here, ill explain.
1. i cant host more than 3 16/16 servers at the same time. so if all servers get active(6 atm), then it can lag. that is something im working to fix with some qos and optimization services in the tcp stack for my servers.
2. the only reason i left infinity in the mapcycle/vote options, is becuase alot of people do enjoy it. it was going to be removed today as i was going to update the alpha script & such today.
3. We, as a clan, Dont own phasor at all. we simply utilize a technology made by Oxide. ive been working with him, Omega, Church, etc... with server software for a while now.
4. i have been working on some (hopefully), better infection variants, expect to see them pop up in the near future. |

One thing is, we do have a system inside the script that checks for hash at the joining of the game. It checks to see if you quit as a zombie or not, then when you rejoin it puts you on the appropriate team.

Yea ive noticed that too, every now and then my net spikes then uber lag then i get a wtf kill that came from a zombie outta no where.. sometimes i recover from the ping spike sometimes i dont, i join back and im still blue. I do agree with the starting post tho just not with the hash memory.  |

I've also noticed one of the server's on halo which had phasor installed actually had a gametypes within the game. I think one was called Dominate where each team had to kill each other until one team was completly blue or something. And the other one was regular infection. I though the domination game was pretty neat for zombies and was wondering if you could add that variant into one your servers just to check out how the people react.

the variant you speak of was made by a friend of mine, if you want it i can ask him for a copy of the script, but i could give a crack at making it aswell |
