R.O.C.K.S. Server Suggestions
« on: October 05, 2009, 06:02:08 PM »
Alright folks, with the R.O.C.K.S. server going again, time to see how everyone likes the current configuration.

For those of you who never used it, R.O.C.K.S. uses all the game types (Race, Oddball, Capture the Flag, King of the Hill, and Slayer) in its rotation.

Any and all suggestions are welcome, so don't be shy ... thanks!

Half of it normal weapons (aka start with pistol and assault rifle or pistol and sniper) and normal shields and normal vehicles. Definitely no more than half heavies / stuff with tanks, shees, or ghosts (with exception of ghosts on Sidewinder).

  • I always enjoy CTF on death island with normal weapons. Hogs and maybe some ghosts ( So your not always getting killed by tanks and banshee's ) Score 4 - 5. Normal shields & health, Limited or unlimited nades. Pretty much a standard CTF ;D
  • Another thing i don't mind is slayer or team slayer on battle creek, with shotguns, probably no shields, no vehicles obviously :XD:. Limited nades, score 25 or 50 ( depends if it is slayer or team slayer )




Well that's what i enjoy :). Not sure about everyone else?





Thanks Perfect for the top sig
Thanks to Blitz for the middle sig
And thanks to Mith for the team sig

Cool! I'd like to see:
  • Mabey if we have a CTF for Death Island, we should use only snipers or Alien weapons only.
  • Hang em high, mabey Snipers only, and invisbility shields randomly everywhere

-not everyone is keen on the sniper only slayer maps, (myself included) I think that a specialist weapon like snipers would be better as team slayer so that you have the support of your team.
-I absolutely would love to see shotguns-no shields in a tight claustrophobic map like chironTL34 or something like that.

At least one maps with heavies only, but no more than two of these maps. I think that heavy weapon games are quite interesting, testing your reaction speed and so on, but you wouldn't want too many of these as ROCKS should be about variety.

So I would say that

Rat Race
Team King
Rockets

and
Chill Out
Foot race
Heavies

Would be great.

Map: Infinity
Game Type: CTF
Weapon Set: Normal
Shield Power: Normal
Vehicles (If applicable): As many as possible
Other Settings (limited/unlimited nades, score limit, etc.): Score 10 (I like infinity CTF, and think it should be longer :P)

I think we need more juggernaut oddball games (like on BG with fuels), those are fun!

I'm a fan of the foot races on Chill out idea as well.

I say we bring back some of the custom races we had on the Custom Race Server a while ago, just for something different.


Thank you Tanger!

I like the offense-defense on Sidewinder.
You blame me?  Remember it had to get past 10 other players before I saw the ball.

Thanks to Spidey for this sig!                                                                                                                  .
