Meh, seeing it was 99-slot and overseas I would've had about 700 ping anyway. If any euros want to play, I suppose I could host :smith: Anyone?
Hit level 6 firebug yesterday, now I'm just trying to get level 6 medic.
what about survivor carpbasket

[QUOTE='[Green];34044124']Just saw the post a few minutes ago, it was already down by the time I saw it. What do you mean by solid ping? 100-140?[/QUOTE] I dunno maybe 175. One guy had 220 but that was the highest, most were double digits. it's a dedicated server anyways. I still don't get why you wouldn't just test it instead of saying "i'll assume the worst and make my own server". [editline]4th January 2012[/editline] I'll see if we can't get a game going again tomorrow. Probably much earlier. [editline]4th January 2012[/editline] And is there really no way to modify the number of zombies out at a time? Someone told me it's specified by the map and can't be changed and i think setting it as custom game is still broken and makes the zombies invisible.
[QUOTE=postal;34044207]And is there really no way to modify the number of zombies out at a time?[/QUOTE]Edit: I looked into this a bit further and you're correct. You can adjust the maximum number of simultaneous zeds only when custom game/Sandbox mode is enabled ("MaxZombiesOnce" is the command by default set to 32), but you cannot adjust the spawn rate. The spawn rate is fixed by the map itself. You [i]can[/i] make Sandbox mode work if you change all of the zombie classes in the server's KillingFloor.ini to their Xmas variations [url=http://i.imgur.com/uBcI7.png]like this[/url], but the Patriarch won't spawn in the boss wave because his class name isn't defined in Sandbox mode's configuration and can't be fixed without an actual mutator.
I got banned from a server yesterday because I was a level 0 support with the pyro skin. Im not too bad at the game, despite only playing it a few times, but damn is there really that much level elitism going on here?

Try not joining servers with Hard or a higher difficulty if you're level 0 tho, you won't have fun, and might end up ruining the map for the other players.
I got the shittiest internet ever and the highest ping I get overseas on a Europe server is 90-100~, 700 is way too much.

At least I dont mind low level people and I always help them as much as I can as long they buy the correct set of weapons ( with that I mean no shotgun while you are a level 2 sharpshooter) But if you want to avoid problems use this golden rule: Easy= level 0 to 2 Normal= level 3 to 4 hard= level 5 to 6 (because you really need a weapon in the first rounds to save money for late waves) Suicidal and Hoe= level 6 but take alot of hours before trying.

I'd say minimum of lvl 3 on Hard, 4 on Suic and 5 on HOE. And that's only if they player is decent enough, i.e not gormless.

Not to mention cash is in very short supply during the harder difficulties so when a level 0 comes in and asks for 1500 pounds... yeah.

[QUOTE==DarkStar=;34048936]Oh I forgot to put that in the post, my bad. But level 3 on hard? maybe for some perks but not for everyone at least.[/QUOTE] Hard isn't really that hard (heh), nor is suicidal. But only if you have good players. Did a few suicidal maps with some friends using perks they wanted to level, some 3s and a 2 I think, with a level 5 and two 6s. Had no issues. Although the level 2 was a medic, and they don't count.
I wouldn't bother with beginner at all. I started with normal and began playing hard at 2 or 3.

I usually try to keep weapons that match the class. I usually just play sharpie with the lever and HC's.

[QUOTE=postal;34048186]What like a custom mutator someone made? Where could i find that?[/QUOTE]No one has made it, but it's a simple mutator to make and, just to make things easier to explain, I've created it myself here: [url=http://www.mediafire.com/?sbu3au690tda9mc]KFXmasFix.rar[/url] This mutator fixes the invisible specimens in Sandbox mode even if you don't adjust the individual zombie class names in KillingFloor.ini. However, the drawback is that when enabled, this mutator will disable all perks and effectively force everyone to level 0. That's just the normal consequence of using a non-whitelisted mutator. To account for this, you could also add the [url=http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?t=37999]Perk Replacement Mutator[/url] which forces everyone to the same defined level or add the [url=http://forums.tripwireinteractive.com/showthread.php?t=36065]Serverside Perk Tracking Mutator[/url] which allows people to level up perks that are only stored locally on the server. Basically, things are a little confused right now due to the Christmas event. If you want to change the "MaxZombiesOnce" value, you'll have to jump through some hoops. Unless you want to go through all that, I'd say a much easier way to run a 6+ player server would be to ignore Sandbox mode for now and just run some custom maps that can accommodate the increased player count and are designed to be challenging enough regardless of the simultaneous player or zombie count.

If it had been up, I probably would've tried. If I happen to be online tomorrow at the right time, I'll surely try at the very least. Who knows, maybe over 100 ping won't make zeds teleport like last time I played at such latency.
I'm looking for someone to play with,my perks are still low (level 1 or even 0,go figure) because all my steam friends are busy playing something else than killing floor with me. [del]Tried to level up them by going solo but for some strange reason all the specimens are invisible and I can't choose any perk,must be something related to the end of the christmas event I think.[/del]Nevermind,it was just the mutators thing that was enabled for some reason,time to farm on solo. I tried to go into random servers but [URL="http://cloud.steampowered.com/ugc/596958827099625739/584B1AB2C17C602F54A3284F8352C2C0BB08D7AC/"]let's just say I wasn't welcome at all[/URL]. You guys seem cool and not really elitist like those you can find on random servers.
I'm gonna get a 99 slot game of killing floor going again soon. Anyone interested?

[QUOTE=postal;34051171]I'm gonna get a 99 slot game of killing floor going again soon. Anyone interested?[/QUOTE] I am. Also I just hit level 3 sharp shooter yesterday on a long game of West London. I used to play support because of the hunting shotgun, but nothing is more fun to use then the .44 magnums now. Turning around and head shotting a clot from about 50 feet away makes me feel like a boss. Also we won the game.
Nevermind my router is acting up again. Will have to wait till tomorrow when i'm getting it fixed.
[QUOTE=Altimus;34051213]If you don't want the grind you can just Steam Achievement Manager it.[/QUOTE] Get all the perks to level 6 and get killed in wave 3 anyway. Don't do it. Play normal and calm. Your perks will be in level 4 in a blink.
My router can suck a dick, we're playing anyways 96.252.37.71 99 SLOTS! JOIN! INVITE PEOPLE! etc we also edited max zeds on map at a time to 600. yeaaaa
