Bad Company 2 BFBC2 Conquest all roltation maps server

[h987654321]

Out of all other maps I too think that Arica Harbor is a good choice. Just think of all the smoke launcher parties!

Man, I just wish it were possible to get some bad ass mods like what was available for bf2. Pirates, air...good shit.

Is anything going to be done with the hardcore server, like server filling nights? That's my favorite and it's never has anyone on it

Great ideas and suggestions, please keep them coming.

We been getting players in for the last couple of nights now. All it takes is getting a couple of players in to get it going.

I would recommend going for something along the line of 24/7 Arica Harbor or a mixture of the popular middle sized conquest maps such as Panama Canal and Oasis. The problem I see with Atacama Desert and Arica Harbor is the constant switch between BIG VEHICLE MAYHEM and tiny close quarters combat. Some people like one and some people like the other. If you want to mix it up on one server you probably should have a larger rotation than two maps. If you want heli and vehicle combat go play heavy metal. Do something new and different conquest wise with this server. A close quarters server would be fun and traditionally 24/7 Arica Harbor servers do well.

I would hope the switching it up server aspect is going to generate more traffic than less due to the fact that the numbers of BC2 players has decreased so significantly as of late. I could be wrong though, it's been known to occur :blush:.
There were 16 players in last night (1-10-2014) and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. A fun bunch for sure, the TS3 is working pretty well for me. Although, I uninstalled Overwolf, I won't regress to DX9 just to be able to use it.

Whoflung is talking about Hardcore, not the one you guys a messing with.

I remember about 3 weeks ago, the hardcore server was filled up for most of the day and got up to 19th in rank. Not sure what happened.

Hey Poo,

Im working on getting some events going for BC2 and will involve several different game modes, maps, and event types. Right now the focus seems to be Heavy Metal to keep full and trying out a new mix in the rotation server. Hardcore is for some and others it is not. So im sure we can try a server filling night but not quite sure if it will be in the hardcore server. Maybe occasionally a group will like a change and play hardcore for an event rather than everyday like the other servers.

While you guys are messing with the conquest server, please, do not leave Heavy Metal unattended. Try to have at least one admin in there, if possible.

I agree with Skagnatti on this one. While it is fun to switch over to the other server and play try to find an admin that can watch over heavy metal as well. Pubs and members like when admins are in the servers to control unexpected issues and to keep the flow of players going for the server. Players seem to stay longer and keep the server full when admins are around.

Africa Harbor
Atacama Desert
Port Valdez
Cold War
White pass
Harvest Day

Mix up would be good, Africa Harbor is definitely a faster paced map. I'm game for whatever...the winter maps are a lot of fun.

I believe this poll closes today but you guys can still add preferences to the thread.

So it has been almost a month with this set up. How is it going?

Traffic seems slim to none ( talking consistency ). Having it on the previous 7 map rotation, single rounds on each map, kept more players in longer and it would fill.

Thoughts?

 

[DarkRaven]

I think we should raise it up to maybe the top 5 poll maps and run it single map rotations both sides at about 300-400 tickets

As suggested I've popped in there a couple of times over the last couple of weeks. I end up practicing my flying because nobody else shows up even if I'm there for 10-20 minutes.

I agree with DarkRaven except that I'd run each map twice with the low ticket count.
