[QUOTE=Happyfaic;25361353]I'd play in this if it wasn't in France :frown:[/QUOTE] What's wrong with it being in France?
[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;25361430]What's wrong with it being in France?[/QUOTE] Lag, for Americans, mostly. The fact that it's French makes it an European server instantly. There are people from all over the world on the internet.
[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;25361430]What's wrong with it being in France?[/QUOTE] Too far away. Server's ping is 300+ for me, for instance. I would love an American version of this server.
[QUOTE=Onirik;25361492]Lag, for Americans, mostly. The fact that it's French makes it an European server instantly. There are people from all other the world on the internet.[/QUOTE] Now you know how it feels to not be able to play on awesome American servers with a good ping :v:
V:v:V
[QUOTE=Happyfaic;25361526]V:v:V[/QUOTE] I have never understood why people write it that way
He's shrugging
I actually have smilies blocked so it only appears as VV. I wonder if there are any American servers with this plugin.

Would anyone play an Australian one? I thought about this yesterday and I think it would be a good thing to do if I could get some Facepunch players. But most of these servers fail due to inactivity.

But most of these servers fail due to inactivity.[/QUOTE] I say wait and see if this server gets popular first. We don't know how much of the TF2 community at large supports these ideas.
I completely support this, as Vanilla Fortress 2 is fun. Just don't add rtd or anything. rtv is perfectly fine, but no shitty plugins, please.
Link to the plugin?
If you gave me that plugin I'd make an American server on the East Coast.
[QUOTE=GastricTank;25362253]I completely support this, as Vanilla Fortress 2 is fun.

Rtd is only fun in idling servers though. It's not even fun in unsrs servers, as it just means people are going to become overpowered as shit and then go around killing everyone trying to have a good time.
[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;25362199]I say wait and see if this server gets popular first. We don't know how much of the TF2 community at large supports these ideas.[/QUOTE] There's already several servers like this, reportedly there's one in Pittsburg that has 0 people playing.
Good to see a french vanilla server (I live in Spain, right next to it), and good to see there's no arena mode, but sadly I don't like very much this kind of gaming: For example, I enjoy using the flare gun when playing Pyro to attack far-away enemies and the Homewrecker to help out friendly engineers; and when playing Sniper, I never use the Kukri. I don't see unlockables as a bad, game-breaking thing, but well, that's your point of view. Maybe I'll try sometime playing as Medic (I'm used to play with the default weapons).
I'm sure many people will enjoy this server, it's nice to take a break from all these new weapons and items, it gets a little overwhelming. You can still get drops though, correct?

Playing on that server doesn't mean you find the whole updated game boring and all, it's just a nice server to play on from time to time, it changes from the actual game and I have to admit that, even though I love all those updates, I'm a bit nostalgic about 07 TF2. It's two different games to be honest, why not having the two in one just with these kind of servers?

[QUOTE=LetsGroove;25362699]You can still get drops though, correct?[/QUOTE] As long as it has a connection to steam, you should be able to get drops.
[QUOTE=LetsGroove;25362699]You can still get drops though, correct?[/QUOTE] Yup.
[QUOTE=Fatfatfatty;25360845]Why would you remove all the awesome stuff valve added over the years? Its apretty much saying "FUCK YOU VALVE, ALL YOUR FREE CONTENT SUCKS."[/QUOTE] It's nostalgia. And what you are saying is "Why would you play retro games instead of the new stuff? It's apretty much saying "FUCK YOU DEVS ALL YOUR NEW GAMES SUCK""
Did you write the plugin yourself or got it from somewhere? Quite interested in the plugin.
I Found the plugin on alliedmods, but I had to edit it a bit, because some weapons were not blocked.
Favorited. How can I not? Believe it or not, but Valve hasn't actually kept the hard balance the game had when it came out. Medics had a tiny fraction of a combat capability, snipers had zero anti-spy-only weapons, there was no damage over time except for fire, and the only arc'd projectiles came from Demoman.
[QUOTE=Doom14;25363364]Medics had a tiny fraction of a combat capability[/QUOTE] If anything medics are stronger now.
