Ideas to get the Zombie Server Populated

[Tiomat]

We have a fast DL. Im talking maps above 50mb bz2 compressed (so like anything that has too much custom content, or just way too big)... I dont like sitting for 20 minutes downloading a 100mb map to have it changed before I join. Me, I usually leave if this happens or if I have to wait and I know many others feel this way.

Wow... that big?! K, I see what you're getting at.

i think removing some escape maps that are barely played and add famous ones like titanic,LOTR,atix helicopter and also add some survival maps, lila panic and the old maps that were on the zombie mod server 2 years ago

Remove large file maps cause people don't wan wait to download.

are the saturday events for zombie escape for eGO members only? Or can pubbers come too? :O

Might as well get rid of the server if you can't put on any good maps because their too big

Reaaaalllllyyyyyyyy....

We had a popular server with small to medium sized maps... Good maps aren't always large.

Or resort to a BETTER solution and pick ANY map you want, wither it's large, medium or small, Just what ever maps you're putting on, make a link somewhere in the css division forums for a "eGO Zombie Map Pack" and allow us to download the maps from there. It'd be better, faster and more convenient.

We have a sticky with all the maps we use on Jail, Zombie Escape and I believe Event maps too.

No.

If there's slots open I usually leave the pubs who were already in the server in, but if space is needed pubs are the first to be kicked.

That's fair & Yeah i downloaded all the zombie escape maps this morning and did "Yes To All" to replace the ones i already had, lol, there was surprisingly not a lot of maps there already

I think we need a couple survival maps. And those human classes sounds like alot of fun.

agreed expecially with the human classes

I'm not criticizing or anything here, but newly added maps to the servers take a LOT of time to be uploaded to the forums!


Oh and Highschool's not on that list! :blushing:

Survival maps not just escape. End of story.

I agree. Escape is fun but sometimes you just want to hunker down and blast some zombies.

Pre - Stage One:

- Block "explode" to prevent suicide for both zombies and humans
- Block fall damage for humans to prevent falling to death accidentally or purposefully

Status: Complete

Stage One:

- Upload Zombie Survival Maps
- Upload Map specific configs
- Edit Zombie Classes
- Edit Human Class
- Add Zombie Class(es)

Status: In Progress

Stage Two:

- Add stats to the Zombie Server
- Have weekly weekend (Saturday) Zombie Events (Yes this weekend there will be an event)
- Have Zombie Competitions/Contests

Status: Not Ready

 

[ShadowHeart]

I think just recruiting pubs on the ZE server would help. But adding a few survival maps might help too.

 

[Jon the WISE]

i think the stats part is a bad idea to be honest. everything else is great

 

[zx_xmbie]

Drat, i can't make this weekend's zombie event :| lmao

 

[TheyCallMeC]

survival is coming back
