Infiltration Night - Part Deux

Almost · 12th Jun 2005, 07:08 AM

Here we go again. Yet another fun and exciting night of all out war is in the making and you are all invited. The date is set to Saturday, 25th of June. People from both dev team and beta team will be there. A Teamspeak server will be made available to those willing and able to use it. Half of the fun is actually participating in the madness going on there. Even if you don't have a microphone, try connecting and just listen in. The IP adress to the server will be made available soonish.

What is not decided yet is if we play on a US or Euro server. The same thing goes for the exact time. However, my guess is that we start around the same time as last time. Stay tuned for more info on that though.

The map rotation will be made up of mostly team made maps with a few custom made maps to fill in the gaps. Mutators will probably not be as plentiful as usually seen on the public servers. However, the Mod team's weapon pack will certainly be enabeled. If you have any special requests for maps or mutators, now is the time to speak up. I can't promise they will be added to the list, but they will at least be considered.

I'll keep updating this thread as more info becomes available.

You got to be kidding me. It's twice you set this event on a date where I am not available. You don't like me or somethin' ? :P

Same thing here! What gives!?

Almost · 12th Jun 2005, 03:14 PM

I did a small survey among the team and beta members and as it turns out, Saturday 25th is the day that causes the least problems. I opted for Saturday 18th at first, but that wasn't doable.

Rostam · 12th Jun 2005, 03:23 PM

Hmm, there is a chance I'll be on a roadtrip in June so I'm not sure. A good, fun game of INF sounds great though. I'll try to make it I guess.

geogob · 12th Jun 2005, 03:31 PM

Well I'm in concert on the 25th, so I won't probably get home until 3 or 4 AM Eastern Time... and I'll be either very tired or not alone

So forget about me for the 25th.

Taque · 13th Jun 2005, 02:34 PM

Hm, Geo will be very tired.

Can't wait to hear all of your nerdish voices.

geogob · 13th Jun 2005, 06:24 PM

what did I say wrong again... stupid english and its subtilities.

cracwhore · 13th Jun 2005, 06:29 PM

I think it'd be more fun if we all played CS:S instead.

Almost · 14th Jun 2005, 10:36 AM

Feel free to organize something. I'm not doing it. The reason is that I can't stand that sorry excuse for a game. Hell, I'll play UT2004 before I'll play CS:S. At least it doesn't pretend to be something it's not. And it can actually be fun at times with the right people. But that's a whole different debate for a whole different thread.

cracwhore · 14th Jun 2005, 11:59 AM

I was only kidding, of course.

See you there.

Yea im sure they are going to be blown away by your UNnerdy and sexy voice Taqito :P

O_DoGG · 16th Jun 2005, 06:40 AM

Erm, from what I know, Taque is more into typing when playing Inf. God, he types at lightning speed

geogob · 16th Jun 2005, 09:21 AM

That must be a side effect of that saxophone thingy :P

Taque · 16th Jun 2005, 11:10 AM

All this trash talk, you'll see ...

Almost · 19th Jun 2005, 08:40 AM

Allrighty, I guess the time needs to be settled on, so I've setteled on 21.00 GMT. For reference, east coast US is GMT -5, Midwest US is GMT -6 and west coast US is GMT -7. In other words. if you are in the US, on the westcoast, it would be 2 in the afternoon, your time.

The timezone-thingy can be a real hazzle. Last time we had a hard time figuring out when we actually we supposed to play, adjusting for summer time and all that crap. Someone please correct me if I got all this wrong.

There's an offer on the table for not only one server, but two. One based in the US, the other one in Europe. My suggestion is that we start out on one of them (Odie's server, maybe?) and letting things spill over to the other if it gets too crowded on the primary server. Most euro's will have a ping between 180-250 on any US server, which can be a lot, but I still say it's fully playable given the relatively slow pace of the game. Feel free to disagree, though

Details on the Teamspeak server will follow shortly.

So, to sum up what we have so far :

We play on Saturday, June 25th at 21.00 GMT. Two servers will be made available, one in the US, the other in Europe. A Teamspeak server will be up and running. More details on that will follow. (Odie's server for those who have been there before). Teamspeak software can be downloaded from http://www.goteamspeak.com/downloads.php.

The current list of maps to go into the server's rotation looks like this :

ArabOutpost
Avignon
Bocage
BorderTown
Dullrocks][
Iraq
Island
LondonWentham
Mostar
PankisiGorge
Raid
Refinery
RtK (still love that map, maybe ironsight only)
Ruin
Skopje (_EX?)
Stalingrad
Tuscany

Go to www.combatmaps.de if you need any of these maps. Allthough downloading them directly off the server is possible, it will be quicker to get them there. Note that the list might change somewhat before the event. Some smaller maps might be removed and replaced with larger ones.

Also make sure that you have the latest Infiltration Mod Team weapon pack, which also can be downloaded from Combatmaps. In addition to that, you might also want to grab a mutator pack. An excellent such pack can be found at http://ghostdogs.net/modules.php?nam...&orderby=dateD.

I guess that's about it for now. Drop by this thread a few times during the coming week for additional updates.

Hope to see you all on the 25th.

If that's of any help at all, check out the applet I put up for the DTASAL. Took me a while to figure it all out, but is correct.

Fat Marrow · 19th Jun 2005, 05:22 PM

Just a quick note - if you're using Wentham, make sure to use the 'Fix' version (which fixes a lot of online bugs and map exploits).

The combatmaps.de version appears to be out of date

Get the fix mapfile here:

http://www.mpfarrow.pwp.blueyonder.c...WenthamFIX.zip

(use all other files from the combatmaps.de zip which is here:
http://combatmaps.planet-multiplayer...site=dl&id=240)

zeep · 19th Jun 2005, 05:28 PM

EAS only i'm afraid? Why not set the server up to switch gamemodes, some EAS maps, some DTAS maps..
And while we're at it, limit Taques loadout to allow only one 40mm per round.
