<div class="IPBDescription">Looking for new Regulars!</div> The {CiA} Clan Server NS 3.0 Beta 4a , is a brand new, Very FAST server running in Dallas, TX on an OC-3 Backbone connection.

IP: 69.41.238.75:27015

We use the following plugins:
-Unstuck Pro
-Admin Mod
-Lerk Lift
-Marine Bleed
-HL Ping Booster

We have 4 admins at the moment, and we are recruiting admins to fill positions.
If your intrested in an admin position e-mail me at rage772@yahoo.com , and give a detailed description why you can fit the ranks.

We also have an extra 4 reserved slots that are open for some regulars to take! You can also e-mail me about that.

To continue, this is just to get the word on that a nice new server is up and running, and everyone is welcome to drop by and give it a whirl.

Thanks! <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    What the hell is MarineBleed, and what style of LerkLift is this? (20 players is kinda excessive, 4 players too many if you want balanced play, but 10 per team would work if it was your standard pub, I guess)

    Marinebleed- Creates a custom effect of blood that is given off by the marines when attacked, and it lets you set how the blood is sprayed, and how much is given off.

    Lerklift- Is for lerks to lift gorges and carry the gorges, thats it.

    The server I guess you could call is a standerized server, but with 6 reserved slots. 2 for Admins, and 4 for the people who sign up for them and receive the slots. You can call it excessive I guess, but I've found it to be a very fun experience on-line for NS. For Combat, yes that may be a bit big, but if I see negative public feedback from it, then I'll proably lower the player count to a more suitable level. Thanks.

    Oh neat. MarineBleed sounds like something where you attack a marine and he starts to lose health or something like that.

    I'd change the method of reserved slots though, make it the standard slottage where it's 20/21 players max. It's fairly irritating to see 4 slots open and get told you can't join because of a slot. Having a wierd number like 21 or 17 players is pretty obvious one of em is a reserved slot.

    Admin mod already takes care of that, ex: When you have 6 reserved slots the server shows up as if the server is only 14 players large. So the server will appear ?/14 when its actually a 20 man server.

    Oh and something to note on personal experience: More admins and more rules makes the game more fun then several admins and lax rules. You really need something to make your server more distinctive and unique. What would make me want to play on your server instead of JoePubmatchBeta4? Look at Lunixmonster. Lots of rules has attracted a very skilled playerbase, and keeps lamers out.

    Something to consider <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Is it going to be ns_ only or a mix?

    He mentioned Combat, so evidently so. BTW you can make it so combat only cycles on certain player numbers. I think. Check around, I heard something like it is possible (Less then 'X' players changes the mapcycle).


    And um, what's wrong with Lunixmonster? The only people I ever hear bashing it are the lamers and cheaters who've gotten banned from it. And even then some of the people banned from it still respect it (I've heard they banned a lot of vet <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->)

    the last time I played on linuxmonster I f4ed when 3 fades were spawn camping and taking a long time to kill our only IP and was promptly admin_marine 'd by an admin so I could keep dying.

    I know a lot of people who have had bad experiences with the admins. I don't really think the playerbase is "very skilled" in terms of NS either.

    oh wow, you broke the rules and an admin enforced them. What a tragedy.

    And if you keep serverbashing you're going to get the guy's thread locked. Don't be jerks.
