Ah, fun. Misunderstood josh then lol.

[Locust]

Well shit lol. Can Bluefang do anything?

[Grimsight]

We can purchase DDOS protection but it costs $50 PER server. (Meaning TS would be $50, groopfootin would be another $50, 7NA_Official would be another $50, etc)

Counter DDos is my recommendation, get Jay from 12th, he's good at that.

You could always pull the "Help us or we move to another provider" card.

Also what does everyone think of allowing swords?

I personally would love that. I enjoy sword fighting. But others may think of it as an imbalance.

I don't see pistols being a problem. Not anymore of a problem than people shooting muskets.

Also, you should be able to set number of Captains per unit. So you could set it to 2 and there would be a max of 6 or 8 captains for most factions. or you could set it to 1 for less.


As a side note, maybe look into NFO hosting for a server. I had a ddos attack happen and they took care of it immediately. It may be more than what you pay for now though. And I'm not sure if it's the type of server you're looking for. But I have a 200 man event hosted on my server twice a week with no problems.

I think maybe if we set a limit to the number of officers on a team it would work.

I believe NFO doesn't support mount and blade as a game. You could rent a VPS though for pretty cheap and get better performance and free ddos protection.

Can't limit the amount of officers per team sadly, only per unit

[Newkirk]

I'm personally against the use of swords in groupfighting, simply because it takes the bayonet vs. bayonet practice out of it. If we did allow swords, I would say no more than one officer per unit.

You would have to rent a VDS from them. It allows you to control the server through Remote Desktop so it makes it very easy. And you could run your teamspeak on with it.

Their single core plan can easily hold a teamspeak and about 60 players in game too

Also what does everyone think of allowing swords?

Maybe allow for just one sword but I have a feeling people will abuse it and a whole team will go swords or use the pistol.

Well the maximum would basically be how many line infantry units there are. so for example france has 4 line units so they would be able to have 4 swordsmen. I can't get it any lower as far as I know

Well, when I do get on Groopfootin I prefer to practice bayonets, not my sword skills. If I want that I go to NA_1 or something.

please add swords yo
