Thanks for dropping by. See you then!

I got on Xfire at 11pm and idled on the server for about half an hour. I thought there were bots that would fill in enough to get the game started, but I guess not 🙁 Yesterday I was on late like 2am and there were about 6-8 pubbers and I could have sworn some bots.

I don't know the objectives, etc, yet, but I was just blowing the shit out of anything that had a red triangle above their heads 🙂 Looks like there may be enough room to be able to lone wolf it in this game afterall.

you have to have like 2 humans I think minimum to start a game..even with bots.. I think.

Personally I have no idea how to make a fireteam or not, normally it is random for me whther or not the game asks me to make a fireteam when I join. Not sure how to invite folks or anything.. don't even know about SL spawns..


So lone-wolfing is more than possible. Just learn what all the classes are good for, teamwork is still very necessary.

Stopwatch might be a fun mode to play a few times.. Teams switch forces and have to beat the other teamss time-to-win to keep going..

1 Human can start. We had 8 bots running last night, but I switched it to 10 this morning.

Any way to have it full with bots? Then when people join the bots just get replaced by humans. Then there will always be a full game running right?

The general consensus is people hate bots on the whole online. You never fill up all the slots with bots, opting instead to get players to join instead. Bots are just impossible to get set correctly for everybody. You either have bots lowering or upping your advantage on one side or the other. They also consume CPU cycles and slow down the server too much, probably why BF2 had no bots.

I'd keep the bots at 40% or less of server capacity.

👍

? What kinda webadmin interface does this use? I should think its much better than that crap EA used, more like UT2004 I would hope.

Reason to know, can we admin the server as a group. There may be very slow times when Paladin and Doc may want to just set full bots for just their late Friday nite play after everyone leaves, not to mention to be able to kick and ban players, etc.


Also, is it just me, or does QW:ET take over windoze. I found I couldn't alt-tab between windows, so you have to make sure you have TS, xfire, etc, running beforehand 🙁

W:ET had the same alt-tab feature. I read there is an app that you can run that will let you alt-tab out for W:ET and it is suppose to work for QW as well.

I read through the forums. There was a server manager for Beta 2, but it's not ready for the Demo. I also believe it is not a server admin, but rather a gui interface to RCON.

The server manager from MyInternetServices is based on a free game server control panel. So far, it is total crap. In fact, it says the servers down when it's running, so we can't even manage the players.

Silent did point out there is an admin tab in the Limbo menu, but I didn't notice it and haven't had a chance to see what its all about.

the linbo admin menu is toted as the interface to 'manage' players implying a little ban-hammer action and all that as long as you have the log-in rights to the server. All done in-game.. no more alt-tab nastiness.
