The AnandTech Game Server is Ready! Currently running full version of UT2K4

[EngenZerO]

I wish I could play, but I am @ work. Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

Server is working fine you probably tried at a bad moment. What happens is that the server (not box, just UT server ) tends to shut itself down every 5 hours or so. However, I wrote a script so that once it goes down it is automatically restarted. Basically if you get a cant connect error try again in 5 minutes.

 

[DeviousTrap]

BTW, I'm off to play... someone join me

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

I'll be right in.

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

Man, that is SO FUN! I'm out to do some yard work and house cleaning. I'll be back later.

 

[EngenZerO]

every one left me high and dry, .

Haha. That's because nobody knew what they were doing. I'd never played or even HEARD of that kind of game before. Just before I died, I was like "WTF... why can't I kill anybody and why the hell are all these bastard frogs all over the place?"

 

[0roo0roo]

finally installed the game, its quite polished

 

[NikPreviousAcct]

No kidding, 0roo0roo! It's gorgeous! And, at 1280x1024, I can still jack the settings way up without choaking my old system. Well, old to some, anyway.

 

[0roo0roo]

yea, i swear it runs smoother then the demo. not that i played the demo for long.

text to speech? awesome feature that shoulda been implimented in other games long ago! not having to take your eyes off the action to recieve messages add voice recognition and voice coms...yikes! only gripe is they didn't turn on text to speech default.. i didn't notice it at first.

Well, before I play any game, I go through every setting I can possibly find, tweaking it how I think I'll like it. Strange, but oh well. Text-to-speech is funny as hell when you go "NOOOOOOOO!!" and hear "no-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh!" in rappid succession

I've been doing voice comm for years with Roger Wilco. The only difference is that you can change the server settings and actually set how far away people have to be before your voice starts trailing off and eventually cannot be heard. It's like you're actually in the action. Turn on all-talk so each team can hear eachother, but then cap it with the localized listening and you've got yourself a very realistic communication tool.

Even the bots didn't know how to play?

Maybe so. But I was more concerned with why I couldn't manage to kill anyone even though I was following a group of bots unloading flack into them and none of them dying.

 

[Jmmsbnd007]

Ok, everyone join up!

 

[Jmmsbnd007]

<-- Just got a ludicrous kill

 

[Jmmsbnd007]

Time: 8:30pm EST
Where: http://server.devioustrap.com <----server info is there

Let's get together and play some assault, onslaught, bombing run, whatever the admins can throw at us. I'm getting ready to head out. If I'm not in by that time, I will be shortly.
