Gun Game Reboot opinions

[Fraggle79]

So we are looking to restart our GunGame  Server Once Again.
Looking for options and opinions from people that know the game or have been playing recently.

I have been playing  on an Ibis clan server recently 208.43.70.233:27015 
Very Similar to what we had before but newer. If you visit that link, turn down you incoming voice chat volume since they are LOUD.

Runs GunGame 5, Knife Pro Mode (knifing helps you level up), GG Win counter at the end of round.  I like this setup. Not sure about what admin menu they have though.

[crazydog]

I vote sourcemod all around. The SourceMod version of GG has knife pro mod, and has a feature to pop up a window showing who won by killing who, their number of wins, and their rank in the server.

Here's the global config (All the settings we can change).

Code: [Select]

"GunGame.Config"

    "Config"

We had the sourcemod version of gungame but it seems that the original events script version is much more updated and has every option imaginable.

What I need to know are a few basics like what type of server you guys want.

Turbo Mode with knife pro
Turbo Mode no Knife Pro
Round based
Team deathmatch which is instant respawn
If turbo mode, how many kills to leavel up
Weapon list
weapon order or random or reverse

here is current order
glock
usp
p228
fiveseven
elite
deagle
m3
xm1014
tmp
mac10
mp5navy
ump45
famas
p90
galil
sg552
aug
scout
ak47
m4a1
m249
hegrenade
knife

Give me some ideas here

PS server is up right now with round based and knife pro

[Holy Shit]

I personally like the elimination style to the gun game scene.  I have been playing at at the devils reject elimination server lately at 206.217.136.178.

The gun order is random which i like because it prevents memorizing whats next, and keeps it more even because if someone is stuck on pistols in a straight order they will likely stay there because once someone gets to automatic guns it gets harder to get a pistol kill.

I also like the knife pro settings and the turbo mode so that you have an option of what to use.

Also the triple level boost for getting 3 kills in one life is a great feature.

With that said no matter what is decided on for the server i will play there because i love gungame

I also prefer no block lol

[crazydog]

Current ToDo list:

Admin Menu
  Respawn player
  Set Next Map

If you have any to-do requests, post em here or just let me know about them at some point

[Crossis]

MY vote also goes to elimination style and random level up order. No turbo-mode, 1 kill per level, knifing levels you up, custom .wav sounds for specific events like end of round music, triple level, ec..

I would also change the server name so the first words are "Gun Game xxx xxx xxx xxx xxx xx" That way if people sort by server name in the list they can easily identify the gun game servers.

EDIT: We  should also enable all talk and get some sort of stats system up and running.

I'm up to try elimination, and I wouldn't mind turning off turbo mode. Random gun order would be nice too.

If you have suggestions for the sounds to play, post some wavs here. It's all supported, we just need the files itself.
I'll change the hostname, and I think Widow's gonna get hlstatsx set up soon.

[Crossis]

Maybe we can all set a time for tonight or tomorrow to commit to being on. It would be nice to get at least 8-10 of us int here to help get the server going

[Holy Shit]

i am all for taking turbo off and trying knife for extra levels... Im not sure how popular it would be but with others, because turbo seems to be really popular, but we can always try it

Just to let you guys know, i tried to join the server tonight and i think the dl server is down because i couldn't connect because i was missing a map file.  Dont want that to be an issue for anyone else

[crazydog]

That was cause the map name had different cases on the server and on the fastdl, so it got confused. I fixed it.

[Crossis]

After playing, my vote stands with elimination mode and turbo enabled. Primarily, servers with these settings seem to get the most traffic. I also like the pace. While I enjoy knifing, I think most of the fun with gun game is getting to use all of the guns, as well as the leveling process. I like having turbo and elimination enabled because you don't spend too much time on a single map and it it just seems like more fast paced fun. With that said, I have some reccomendations regarding the maps currently on the server. Our list really needs to be cleaned up and modified. Here are my suggestions. (if you cant find some of the maps online I can upload them)

All done.

Also, I took the liberty of getting a free year of 1and1 hosting (less the $5 setup fee) with 150GB storage and unlimited transfers. I'll use that to host the fast DL stuff until August 30th 2011. Then we need to find something else.

FastDownload will be up in 5 minutes.

I've set it up so only the gameservers can access the files, so neither you guys nor anybody else who wants to leech our fast DL will be able to do so.


*This also means TF2's FastDL works, in case we want to try some custom maps.

If anyone is interested, the site is http://theeldersfastdl.com, although you won't be able to see anything since you must be connecting from one of our two servers to download any files.
