Team Fortress 2 Classic V2 - Deathmatch mode when? - Games

We need to get more people playing. The servers are like always dead :/

[QUOTE=King Cnut;47848878]We need to get more people playing. The servers are like always dead :/[/QUOTE] During the day (for America at least), you can find some decent servers.

I've made the suggestion for [URL="http://spuf.co/threads/suggestion.9/#post-33"]SPUF Co.[/URL] to switch to a custom map server instead of tf2c. I don't think there are that many people that play this due to a lot of different factors and I could really use a good custom map server to call home.

[QUOTE=_Pai;47854176]thank you for supporting the community and helping it grow /s[/QUOTE] The community [B]itself[/B] isn't very enthusiastic to grow so why should I be? Seriously, I've tried adding admins/mods of the group to have them post more announcements when me and my friends are online trying to get a game together, and all I really get is people who are [B]too important[/B] to do anything like that or those who say they can't. Besides, there's already too many servers for this game mode available right now. One less server sitting idle with 0 out of 40 slots available isn't going to hurt [B]the community[/B]. Stop overreacting.

Stop overreacting.[/QUOTE] A lot of us [the devs] have lives, and another large number of us are currently in education (or a decent portion, but I at least speak for myself) and as far as I'm aware it's still a pretty bad time for anyone in education in terms of anything like this as it's nearing the end of schools and everyone has work to get on with (same applies for players, less people are available to play at times). I have previously been running some community gametimes, but I've been strapped down by a few other things (other projects, enjoying playing other games), however once school's out for the year I (and more than likely other devs) will be more than willing to run regular community plays. I'll also think about working into my schedule a time where gametimes can be ran on a regular basis (something like every week on a specific day / at a specific time).

Gotcha.

Sneak peek on something I've been working on lately :dance: [T]https://dl.dropbox.com/s/pigxvifvx8nxx77/Screenshot%202015-06-02%2002.28.57.png?[/T]

Perhaps to increase the player count, you guys should setup weekly play times and alert everyone when they start using Facepunch and the Steam group.

[QUOTE=TheRealFierce;47855587]Where did he say anything remotely close to that?[/QUOTE] I never said he did. Try to follow along please.

Those who complain about the lack of players should just try to get their friends interested, and no not just their 3-9 friends they regularly talk to but everyone else in their list who they think could be interested. People already agreed that the mod is in too early a state to have exposure so everyone has to make do with the small amount of players it has [QUOTE=King Cnut;47856094]assmad furfag detected. Stay salty.[/QUOTE] And this is a good way to make people disregard your points.

To reply to King Cnut, there ARE events. And i actually went to some of 'em. The problem is, it often ends up having only 4-6 players only, and people leaves after a few mintues (which does not help). I manage to find servers myself from time to time but like only once per week and people get tired quikcly anyway, which i find honestly sad because even if this mod is in early phase, it still deserves love and attention. The lack of players is often the risk in small multiplayer mods because people often expects to get a shit ton of players just because its awesome and give up after a few minutes because there is like 6 people on it.

The mod is a work in progress. Until the devs finish more substantial features, the majority of the players will only play during specific playtimes or when the game updates. Why is this so hard to understand for [url=http://facepunch.com/member.php?u=596595]some people[/url]. [B]Edit: [/B]Seriously King Cnut, you're not helping anything by acting like you're important and going on about how dead the game is. The mod itself is fine.

[QUOTE=NateDude;47856239]The mod is a work in progress. Until the devs finish more substantial features, the majority of the players will only play during specific playtimes or when the game updates.[/QUOTE] True. When the Civ will be out and Deathmatch will be refined, i'm sure we'll get an e-fin boost. [B]edit:[/B] oh, and 4ort. I must not forget that.

[QUOTE=King Cnut;47856094] No. And that's the problem I've been talking about. Everyone in the group is too important or says they can't do the announcements. Making that REAL contribution to the community and all..[/QUOTE] Don't you realise that some peoples lives don't just revolve around one thing? Right now a lot of people have had examinations along with other end of the year things, of course lots of them are going to be busy. How about you organize a new group of TF2C players and announce play sessions? Being serious here, if you think that there's a void that needs to be filled and no else one is able to do it, the best approach would be to do it yourself and help build the community instead.

[QUOTE=King Cnut;47856094] No. And that's the problem I've been talking about. Everyone in the group is too important or says they can't do the announcements. Making that REAL contribution to the community and all..[/QUOTE] Wow, it's almost as if these people have things that they need to do in real life and aren't spending every minute on developing this!

I literally cannot respond to all the circle-jerk replies here. I think we must agree to disagree and move on. I'll let you kids get back to your mod here. It was a real joy participating in this community of logical thinkers.

[QUOTE=TLOVER;47857152]Like I was the only one... So you rate me as dumb, but for some reason you are right?.[/QUOTE] What makes you think what you're doing is right, too?

Question since I'm afraid of wading through the thread now What's the current state of affairs on how TF2C's coming? I just saw that Main menu UI progress and a few great pictures of progress on the YLW skins, but other than that, how're things coming?

[QUOTE=FranckyFox2468;47856271]True. When the Civ will be out and Deathmatch will be refined, i'm sure we'll get an e-fin boost. [B]edit:[/B] oh, and 4ort. I must not forget that.[/QUOTE] Speaking of 4ort... Actually I don't have an update for you guys because I just had some wonderful surgery and will be functioning on a lower level for a few days. I was also briefly distracted by the new Mapcore contest, which I will most likely not be entering because 4ort is that important. Hopefully by Thursday I'll be competent enough to dick around in hammer and not just type up replies to this thread.

[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;47857324]Linux binaries are a mess(it's literally the only thing I go on about) As you can see we have ideas that are yes way over the top and some that are incredibly good and worth investing time in. And then we have playtests which work okay for the most part. Since 404 departed himself gracefully(not) we're slowly bouncing back I'd say but we aren't exactly done for. We did have something cooking up a while ago(locked trello boards) but so far nothing. I'd assume that they're still working on it and they don't wanna show it off(I'm no dev and I wouldn't spoil anything) So who knows let's just wait patiently(hopefully not HL3 patiently)[/QUOTE] Oh, so development took a bit of a break from the whole fiasco? That's a bit of a shame, but also like other people said about not playing, exams have been happening too, so I guess at the moment it's a bit of a lull in activity at the moment anyway. I can only see a lot more activity picking up in the summer months.

[QUOTE=TLOVER;47857152]Like I was the only one... So you rate me as dumb, but for some reason you are right?.[/QUOTE] I don't think you are able to understand what people are trying to tell you, so i'll make it easier for you: [QUOTE]No puedes entender que molestas a todos los miembros actuando así? Lo único que haces es escribir cosas tontas y sin sentido. Y tratas de ser gracioso cuando no lo eres. Simplemente deja de actuar de esa manera e intenta ser mas educado. [/QUOTE] I'm sorry for using spanish. I'm really fed up with this guy. Ps - Look at his country

It's incredible how some people don't keep track of the thread/development and have the audacity to talk out of their ass then scream "circlejerk!" when people call them out for being stupid. That's a damn good reason as to why the project is known only by a small amount of people and that promoting it would cause tons of clueless people to pour in and cause a complete disaster, if 1-2 people can derail the thread imagine what an influx of 20-40 could do.

There's a new TF2C forums being set up right? What's the progress on it?
