What to do with our spare 200 slot server.
« on: April 06, 2013, 06:35:41 pm »
Hello, a member of ours about a week ago invested in a 200 slot server which has been used for trainings and other small events up to now. However we are soon to get a second 200 slot as well another small training server. This has left us with a spare 200 slot server. Lately it's been used as a public siege server containing the vanilla NW siege maps. Even though we thought some would prefer having the vanilla maps back, we have yet to scratch over 20 players without us having to join to boost the players. Now with some ideas we'd like to use the server for game modes/ maps which the community would like. Here's a list of suggestions I and our regiment have come up with, the custom maps will be constructed by a number of our members.

(All public)

Siege with custom maps (May conflict with 84e Siege)
Battle with custom maps (Trench, field terrains etc)
Capture the flag with custom maps (Trench, naval etc)
Just some of our suggestions.

Our first thoughts were to keep the server open 24/7 with the basic vanilla maps. But we thought it would be best to ask the community on their thoughts and ideas. Any ideas are appreciated. The one chosen my the most will be used.

Perhaps you could allow small regs to use it for training and such?

+1.

It's something they did in MM aswell. People just sign up to use it for their training. And you make sure all the regiments can use it when they need :)
