Topic: What about arranging a JO:R mod server/game?

The time and date would be decided and then people would know when to join and there would be many players. The most players I have seen playing JO:R at the same time on a same server is 4 (including me) and that was coop. If there is only one player on a server, nobody wants to join it. But when there would be an arranged game people would know more people will show up and that's the easiest way of getting a good old reality server/game.

Date: ?
Time: ?
Server: ?
Game type: AAS, TKOTH, S&D, A&D or TDM

Re: What about arranging a JO:R mod server/game?

My time for gaming is whenever I can find spare time.......so maybe some evenings after the evening  meal, say after 7-00pm GMT, and at weekends after I have done the jobs that have gradually built up all week.

Now I wouldn't like it if I 'had' to be there week after week because its a hobby, and I do it 'if' I feel like it.  But it would be nice to know there was a fairly populated game on at least once a week.  Even perhaps two, (i.e. one weekend one & one weekday one).

To kick this off we need peeps to offer to serve on these occassions, but with which maps?

Also I often have lag issues on the NA servers, which doesn't make for the best gaming experience, so its possible we need servers on both sides of the pond?

It's what you do that makes you what you are, not what you say you do.  Going without, teaches you how to handle the disapointments in life, getting everything does not.  When confronted with a issue, use this philosophy. First time = could be an accident, Second time = it's coincidence, Third time = take enemy action.

Heh, we also have to account for timezones. During the week, when Europe guys are not at work everyone else is at work or sleeping. So possibly on Fridays or Saturdays.

If we can find a server that is hosted on East coast of US it shouldn't be as slow for the European guys or a server on the far west of Europe for the NA guys.

The OFF server is hosted out of Chicago, Illinois  ... but every EU player that has joined has had at least a 200 ping or greater. sad

There are only two reality games running whenever I try to play. 1 of them is hosted out of Europe somewhere and is password protected, so i cant play there. the other one is Hardmaps server, and i've only seen one other player on there server recently.

Don't be the first, don't be the last, and don't volunteer for anything.

North America possibly?

& IMHO, I believe the reason for lack of servers is lack of new maps.
