DeathBall Server Settings

Xenos · Post by **Xenos** » 27-05-2003 15:46

Hi guys, I am an admin at UnrealMachine.com. We recently changed our UT2003 server over to dedicated DeathBall because of it's popularity. It now get's a lot more traffic and we have some darn good matches. I'm asking that the DB veterans here suggest the best server settings to make it more enjoyable or some sweet maps. Thanks!

Current Maps:

DB-BigFootball.ut2
DB-Carrier.ut2
DB-CowTemple.ut2
DB-Cube.ut2
DB-Curve.ut2
DB-DeathVolley.ut2
DB-DesertBall.ut2
DB-LegoFan.ut2
DB-LowCube.ut2
DB-NightStorm.ut2
DB-November.ut2
DB-Rushed][.ut2
DB-Sediment.ut2
DB-SmallCube.ut2
DB-Tribun.ut2
DB-U.ut2

My advice is to make it 5 vs 5, have that shit sprint option disabled but leave banana on. Matches of 30 minutes is good, as is golden goal (no-one likes draws). A map vote is always welcome...

Oh and remove Sediment from the map list...No-one likes it...

first rule: No sprint
It stinks, plain and simple

second rule: 5v5
Too many servers allow 6v6, and this leads to serious overcrowding.

third rule: Ditch sediment, and (if 5v5) smallcube.
Sediment sucks, and smallcube is only good for 2v2.

fouth rule: Mapvote on.
Democracy is good thing, and it also allows the kicking of muppets who score own-goals for fun.

Thanks, but they don't seem to have many of the maps he suggested.

you may want to leave small cube out if you put map vote one. depending on if you care if it ends up being a small cube volley only server or not.
