[Higuy]

yes, would love to play some old classic maps

[Rainbow Dash]

nope

not even trying this time it never works anymore

self fulfilling prophecy :]

[ODX]

Name a day you're thinkin' 'bout

[Jelly]

higuy your signature is a 1.4mb PNG whats up

[Pyong Kawaguchi]

i'll play if someone reminds me about it on steam :v:

[Rainbow Dash]

Name a day you're thinkin' 'bout

sometime on the 14th maybe?

[Pooky]

sometime on the 14th maybe?

I'll probably be working on any given Saturday... Sundays would be better for me.

[Amit]

nope

not even trying this time it never works anymore

This is why it never gets started. Because people like you slap on the negativity before it gets off the ground.

He's not being negative, he's positive that it'll never get off the ground :)

[TVTyrant]

lol

[Amit]

I see what you did there. And I'm not impressed.

[Rainbow Dash]

Sounds good to me.

[Timo]

Next weekend would be ideal.

[EX12693]

Yeah I'm open all day the 15th

[JackalStomper]

This is why it never gets started. Because people like you slap on the negativity before it gets off the ground.
I was probably the most positive on it last time and nobody could stop bitching about maps/gametypes and then they didn't show up anyway.

[Higuy]

can't play the 15th unless its later in the night after at least 5, going to be out playing airsoft...

[supersniper]

should wait til the summer for these really, it's when most people are out of school

[TPBlinD]

im down!

[Cortexian]

I too, am gay down for a gamenight.

[n00b1n8R]

I'll play if you can get a server where I have <150 ping :downs:

[supersniper]

that'll be hard for you, that means the host will have to be european :p

[chrisk123999]

Instead of trying to find a day where everyone can play, just pick a day and stick with it. People who can show up will, others will just be out of luck.

[=sw=warlord]

I see what you did there. And I'm not impressed amused.
ftfy.

[Rainbow Dash]

Alright then 15th sounds good, throw out some maps.

yoyorast_island

cmt_snow_grove

[Amit]

^^I agree with those maps.


ftfy.

No, I'm slightly amused.

[Warsaw]

Needleosity.

<3 that map.

[ThePlague]

We always have snowgrove...put on some maps we have rarely played. Sel, what about some of those new maps you released?

[Rainbow Dash]

I haven't seen snowgrove played for years.

[Timo]

Fissure Falls, Terralan, DJW Delta Station, New Mombasa, Wartorn Cove (durr) and plenty of other maps I forget the name of. Someone should settup a teamspeak/mumble server too ;o

[Higuy]

Defiently Fissure Falls, wtc3, New Mombasa, we should also try out some newer maps as well, we always seem to play the same stuff whenever one of these actually work.

[Rainbow Dash]

NMC is fine by me.

WTC is a no, it's not a good map, and has always led to constant stalemates with it's mid that's just one giant chokepoint with no flank routes. Snowtorn Cove alleviates that slightly and might be something I'd consider playable.

[Timo]

Fair enough. Maybe have wtc/stc as the final map?

[Ki11a_FTW]

I night with the old crew? Well I'm Down.

[PopeAK49]

Hopefully I can play. I know it has crappy gameplay, but maybe Ancient Sanctuary?

[Rainbow Dash]

Ancient Sanctuary is good.

[Siliconmaster]

I'd suggest Precipice just because it rarely gets large-scale playtime, but I'll be the first to admit its gameplay with small numbers of people isn't that great. Theoretically with larger teams it might be good though.

[Timo]

Is anyone able to get a server up to use, or are we just setting up a gamenight that has nowhere to go? I could set one up, but I think you guys would get sick of 300 ping pretty fast.

[jcap]

Of course I could whenever you want it. Whoever is running the gamenight, just ask.

[JackalStomper]

could always just stick to some default map because even then the turnout is only like 4 people

[Timo]

Yeah well we don't want you at our 2v2 match anyway http://sae.tweek.us/static/images/emoticons/emot-colbert.gif

[IGMBiti]

Shameless advert (http://hce.halomaps.org/index.cfm?fid=3512)

Also, will someone be uploading a map pack for the gamenight?
Ohshi battery is low on power gtg before it goes on--

[Rainbow Dash]

Yoyo
Snowtorn Cove
New Mombassa Classic
Precipice
Revelations
CMT Snow Grove

I'd like to keep it to 5 or 6 maps, so keep suggesting things and I'll change this list around if people suggest better ones.

Also yes, there will be a map pack.

[Cortexian]

Do Wartorn Cov3 if you're going to do CMT Snow Grove.

Too much snow.

[TVTyrant]

Do Wartorn Cov3 if you're going to do CMT Snow Grove.

Too much snow.
Snow maps are the best maps~

[Rainbow Dash]

Do Wartorn Cov3 if you're going to do CMT Snow Grove.

Too much snow.

No, we already discussed why I'm not running WTC. Suggest something else, because I'd like to get Snowtorn out of there too.

[PopeAK49]

Delta Ruins?

[TVTyrant]

Ambush

:iamafag:

[Cortexian]

bloodgulch AI war 17 humans vs grunts vs hunters vs elites vs grunts piloting banshees

[El Lobo]

Hate any type of cove that has been torn apart by war.

[Cortexian]

Make Prestine Cove 5

[Lateksi]

I'd like to play, too. Also like has been said, Ancient Sanctuary is a good map. No Remorse anyone?

[Rainbow Dash]

Updated first post with maps list, no remorse replaces snowtorn.

[TVTyrant]

Make Prestine Cove 5
I lulzd

[Higuy]

Could we please beta test this (Geomar)?

http://media.moddb.com/images/mods/1/16/15095/geomar3.jpg

http://media.moddb.com/images/mods/1/16/15095/geomar1.jpg

Origionally by Con, I fixed it up a bit. Theres still a few things left I need to do add before its beta'd, but I could have it ready within a couple hours.

[Siliconmaster]

Oh damn, haven't seen that map in a while. Glad to see it finally got ingame and playable.

[PopeAK49]

Why is revelations in the line up?








/troll

[Rook]

Should do grove_final instead of snow grove. 9pm on Sunday is a little early for me but could probably be late around 10pm.

[Rainbow Dash]

Replacing No Remorse with Geomar.

[jcap]

Keep the maps down to 5.

Five 45 minute routes are the most we ever have the attention span for.

[Rainbow Dash]

I was planning on 6 30 minute rounds. The longer the rounds the more likely people are to get bored, so there's no point bothering in anything longer tbh.

[Siliconmaster]

30 minute games sound good. If possible, can I request that Precipice be played later in the cycle? My mom and brother are visiting campus that day, and since they'll likely want to take me out for dinner, I may not be back in time if Precipice is the first map played D:

[Rainbow Dash]

Sounds good.

[Ki11a_FTW]

2748
.

[Rainbow Dash]

No. Chronopolis sucked.

[PopeAK49]

Snowcast seems like a fun map to my opinion.

[Pooky]

Precipice is a beautiful map, but the actual gameplay was really, really bad. No offense.

what.
WTC is the best map??? teamwork :/

[TVTyrant]

:mech3:

[Rainbow Dash]

Ignoring the fact that getting teamwork in a non competitive environment is next to impossible, there isn't really much teamwork can do about making the chokepoint on each side of mid reasonable.

[Lateksi]

Snowcast is really a nadecast. Chronopolis is fun but the lower base design sucks.

[Ryx]

I would be happier with CMT snow grove if it had normal weapons, CMT's gameplay balance sucks :|

Also, how many people are we expecting if we're playing yoyo?

We have more than 16 people responding to the poll, so hopefully a full server, if not, then we'll have to make it up as we go.

[Rainbow Dash]

Someone needs to send me Geomar so that I can run it.

[.Wolf™]

I'll be there. Please let there be wartorn!

[EX12693]

I'll be there. What's the server?

[TPBlinD]

oh yeah i forgot you never experienced bunghole or hive so don't really know the intricacies of it

[Rainbow Dash]

Map pack is up.

[PopeAK49]

I hope to fucking god my shitwire modem doesn't screw me over.

[Higuy]

It says when for the time... but is it tonight? or tommorow?

[Rainbow Dash]

oops

fixed

[Siliconmaster]

Just to be safe I'll re-submit my request that Precipice not be played until at least 22:00 EST, otherwise I'll miss my own map D:

[Rainbow Dash]

Moved it.

[Siliconmaster]

Much obliged.

[Rainbow Dash]

Since it has come to my attention that the time may be read differently by different people, this should clairfy. The event begins in 11 hours from this post.

[ODX]

Server's up, I'm in, vamonos muchachos!

[Rainbow Dash]

And we're live. See you all there.

[BobtheGreatII]

Downloading maps, should be there in a few

[Amit]

You guys chose the worst day :( I have an exam tomorrow.

[Rainbow Dash]

You guys chose the worst day :( I have an exam tomorrow.

so...?

[TVTyrant]

DLing Maps...

[PopeAK49]

You guys chose the worst day :( I have an exam tomorrow.

Who the hell would assign an exam on Monday?

[JackalStomper]

sel was right I was wrong it was a blast

[Siliconmaster]

That was pretty awesome for the bit I was there for. We need to do this again, or multiple times so more people can find time to play.

[PopeAK49]

I'll need better internet, and then I'll join these so called game nights.

[Amit]

so...?

Well, if I hoped to not fail the test, I would have to study for it.


Who the hell would assign an exam on Monday?

What does that even mean? Exams are set on any day of the week except Sunday. That's how exams work.


sel was right I was wrong it was a blast

Glad you had fun:mech2:

[Higuy]

.sooo when are we going to finish the gamenight? (if i heard correctly you guys didnt finish or something)

[jcap]

Yeah we need Part II.

Can we not do it on a Sunday night? IMO it seems like a shitty time since most people have school the following day. I have a morning class myself. :-/

[Higuy]

^ yeah this, I dont see why we cant do it on a friday or saturday. the sole reason i left early was school, otherwise i would have played the whole thing.

[=sw=warlord]

Also start it maybe a few hours earlier?
for some of us the last Gamenight began at 2AM.

[Siliconmaster]

Damn, that is late. No wonder everyone poofed after a while.

[JackalStomper]

I work on fridays.

[Rainbow Dash]

Saturday the 28th, 5pm est?

[Siliconmaster]

Hrm, gonna be a bit rough with my thesis due a few days after that, but I think I could do that.

[Higuy]

Sounds good to me.

[Siliconmaster]

So, uh, is this still happening? I have plenty of work I should be doing, so if not that's ok, but I figured I'd check.

[Higuy]

Good question.

[Rainbow Dash]

Nobody posted so I figured there wasn't any interest. Not gonna bother setting anything up tonight, got too much to do.

[JackalStomper]

honestly I have little interest in another gamenight anytime soon.

[PopeAK49]

I just got a good 20mbps connection. If anyone wants to organize a gamenight other than thursday nights then I'm open. Or better yet, maybe I can host a server or freelancer can be nice enough to lend me one of his...

[Cortexian]

Whoever is gonna run it just PM me or message me on Steam. I'll set you up with a FTP to a server if you want.

[Ki11a_FTW]

Another night is needed. Lets get some classics in, wartorncove 3 or 4, no remorse, zanzibar classic, IDK thats all i can think of right now, but please! I miss you guys:(

[FluffyDucky™]

Yesh please :) hai killa :) why you no respond to me :(

[Ki11a_FTW]

If youre talking about the PM i deleted my facebook:(

[FluffyDucky™]

Yeahh, ohhhh sadface :( I miss chuuu :)

[jcap]

Needs to happen at least 2 weeks from today. Next week I have finals.

[Cortexian]

How are you not finished school yet?! Everyone here has been done for a few weeks.

[Ki11a_FTW]

I'm good for any weekend night. Weekdays I have work at 4 AM :\

[itszutak]

How are you not finished school yet?! Everyone here has been done for a few weeks.Quarter system

[Timo]

I've got three weeks before i've finished.

[jcap]

Quarter system
Yeah this. Gay.

[Rentafence]

I want in on this you fuckers. Also someone should set up a vent/teamspeak server or something to enhance the experience.

Also 24/7 Hugeass only.

Coldsnap was better, fucker

Yes, it was better.

[Cortexian]

TeamSpeak 3 @ lancersedge.dyndns.org

It's always up.

[JackalStomper]

:mech: teamspeak

[Rentafence]

Join #modacity on irc.gamesurge.net for the best modacity experience. Be sure to stick around at 1am Eastern Time on July 1st for the exclusive unbanning and return of rentafence to the gamsurge irc network.

[Cortexian]

:mech: teamspeak
TeamSpeak 3 is superior to Vent and Mumble isn't user-friendly enough yet.

[JackalStomper]

mumble is plenty user friendly



just not power crazed server op friendly.
