TF2 Server

I've noticed that the server seems pretty dead... or, well there's never any players on when I try anyway.

 

I was just wondering if people ever use it? Partly thinking that because I live in the UK, I'm probably sleeping when people from different parts of the world are on or something.

 

Alternatively, anyone fancy a game now? :U

The day it opened it was heaps of fun (however it was sorta buggy for the first bit, it would restart the map, this has since been fixed to my knowledge) and the week after was the weekly get together, that was fun. However it was not weekly and it was never done again. This brings me to one of the points I made in the "MLP Forums Member Satisfaction Survey Results" thread

If the steam group was more active, I can safely assume the TF2 server would be as well, along with the minecraft one ( although some minecraft users do not have steam)

That's a pretty valid point. I did hear a certain pony mention on skype that the minecraft server can be a bit dead at times.

 

 

But atleast with minecraft you can get on and do whatever by yourself. It's alot harder to do that on TF2, especially since there isn't any bots to even fill in gaps. [in my case, the entire teamset aside from myself.]

 

But yeah, I do agree with you in terms of the steam group should have like, a regular-ish update/notification to say when people should come play. I get it all the time with the NoHeros group I'm in, so :I hmmm.

While I do agree with you, I dislike bots as they take up slots on the server that a human could be using and you can get bots in offline mode, however it would give people some incentive to join the server even if there aren't any people on there. if there is one on there, another is sure to follow and on and on. Maybe there is a sourcemod plugin that kicks bots after a user tries to join?

I've seen a certain thing you can do where, say if someone joins, it will remove the bot so the player can play. Without any fuss. Just automatically. o_o Not sure how servers work entirely though, so xD

Maybe it's just my laptop, but it takes 5 minutes just to join the server. I mean, DAMN. I have to sit there and wait (usually I'm a patient person, but for that long?) until it loads. :3 This makes me beg the question, "why do I have to wait so long to play a game?" My other games load much faster, but it's just Team Fortress 2 that gets me annoyed. :P

Long loading times are also indicative of downloading custom maps, although I am under the impression the TF2 server uses the default stock maps.
