For the last week or so I haven't seen any of the regulars on the US BF4 server...I know Codpiece and Murdered are in the UK, but none of the other regulars are showing up. Please don't tell my you now actually have a life...a life with your kids, wifes, pets...

Hey Johnny: My usual hours are around 7-10:30 pm Atlantic time. I usually work Mon-Thurs. And depending on the weather I am on most days and/or evenings on the weekends. 

I have been on most every night this past week. 

I think you are not allowed on in the evenings :devil: See you in the server!

 

ps see my holiday post. 

 

pss..maybe I don't qualify for a Regular, i'm OK with that too. :rant:

There are those who cannot handle the US battlefield.  For those who die in the server, die in life...............

Johnny doesn't play that late usually. @@iboomboom add @John_Crighton to your friends list. He is a good dude to play with. WeednFeed is on around that time as well. Lazyhousecat as well, but won't be on long  then as it is close to his beddy bye time. We have a lot of regulars that will play then, but they won't join if they don't see anyone. So add friends guys it really works.

I am on usually most of the time.  If I am not the duty agent for the day, I spend my evening on the server until about 10 pm Pacific time.  Like brother Cod said, just add me shoot me a text.  Ill kick some ass with you.

Think what is needed is a better small map rotation that will keep 0-18  peeps hanging around, including gun game - yes...we/Papi and Polly had 20 peeps join in  2 gun game rounds, but when it goes to large maps they leave as fast as they come.

Yes... some leave cause  it went back to normal roation, but the rest leave cause they dont want to run around  on a big map w/10 peeps.

 

unlike you @@B-Murda ..." we are your only friends too"  but at least @ made it to  my friends list.  lmao!

I dont know but I am just putting my 2 cents in here

 

Perhaps make it somewhat like the EU server in terms of mixed modes with CTF/DOM/ etc for the small map rotations. You's probably have those gamemodes already implemented I wouldnt have a fair idea

 

Bring in other gamemodes like Obliteration/Rush into it and try it out for a week and see how it goes. I know most US guys didnt like it in the past but like change is sometimes needed everyonce in a while.

 

The server is full tonight I see which is always good :thumbup:

Over half the maps in the low player rotation are small DOM maps. If you want your small DOM maps then VOTE! Gun master is a waste and detracts from what most of the players want. That is vehicles. I know you don't like that Damit, but that's the way it is. This isn't softcore and it isn't the EU server. Your experience with gunmaster will happen on rare occasions, but it is far, far from the norm. What happens 99.9% of the time is people leave when gunmaster first makes it's appearance. Those that stick around will leave if it shows again. When we get 8 - 10 players they will leave if no CQ. There is 63 players in the server right now, and if I put a DOM or gunmaster map on they will leave.      

 

We have many XI members who will not come in and play if no one is in the server. As soon as a few people join they will come in. We have no, and I mean NO admin coverage. I have been told several times that we have too many. Yet where are they? I haven't seen any recruitment since we have NO coverage. All I have is Lazy House Cat in the evenings and Papi in the morning for an hour or so. That's it. I have said many times add people to your friends list. If people see you they will come in. It really isn't that difficult. Small maps and EU style of play damn near got us shut down last time.

 

The server is a good model, but we need members who will add friends and play in our server when it is low in number and not just when it is full. I know you don't like hardcore Damit and the big maps are not to your liking, but they work. They will work a heck of a lot better if I can get some help.

I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT A NORMAL SERVER  i AM TALKING ABOUT THIS EMPTY 64 MAN HARDCORE SERVER!  YOU MIGHT KNOW THE ONE RANKED #470 DOWN FROM #375  a month ago....

If it is such a great rotation that would explain why it is empty!  funny you argue the  map and friends bla bla bla  thing when I dont see you in very often.

 

iF IT STARTS SO FAST THEN WHY IS IT ALWAYS EMPTY? If it starts so fast why do you care about the small map rotation and not changing it?  If its such a great map rotation why has it not fill this week until today?  Why dont you ask the peeps who might start it what they want... oh thats right  you said it yourself - your NOT THERE.  So lets just continue doing nothing about it  because you say its a model rotation!

Think I am full of bs...check out this empty 20 slot  TDM server ranked miles above our 64 slot  or this 10 man server ranked #244th http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/176.57.170.93:25200/b/.  ......what a shame  admins what a shame.  If your not going to play admins, TURN IN YOUR  ADMIN TAGS so someone else who wants the job can do it.  Bet the EU/UK boys  could make another server successful, might as well turn it over to them and you can learn something about map rotation and stuff!

Maybe a SR Admin can put it to a vote for us!

 

By the way... being afk and on the server-DOES NOT COUNT AS GETTING THE SERVER GOING! It only makes the already small teams way unbalanced so peeps will leave after a map of playing with 2 afk teammates! So if your not here to play then dont show up at all!

 

One bright spot in this whole rant is Papi...In the last 2 months he has made a great effort  to start the server every chance he gets, however  he has had little success or help. I wont start the server anymore myself...done that plenty. However  I will be a 4th player  most times when an admin ( the 1 who is around -Papi) is trying to get it started. Member of lthe month lol... Papi should be awarded member of the month, atleast he is around often.

I have removed my post as it is in the General section. Would probably be more appropriate to discuss it in the member section.

@codpiece  apologies to you!  I have not been fair... Yes I got a little heated last night...makes me angry to see our  XI server go  down in flames. I know  your not the only admin, however you are the only one who gives a crap to even respond to this thread...so  I directed alot your way. Hence I said turn in admin tags  if you dont wish to admin (for all admins eyes not just bf4. Admins are picked  based on personality and the fact they play alot. No admins = empty server). Admins will make the difference on weather  a server thrives or dies.

 

I am certain  we could  all come to some agreement on a map list tweek of some kind that would make  server traffic  better - keep things fresh.  There is  kinda the makings of a early afternoon/morning club, but some  of these peeps( who dont voice  their opinion publicly ) are  not so happy with rotation either so I see them playing other places.  I dont blame them I have been sadly playing other places too.

 

This week even with a year away I will cross the 2,000 +hrs  line in bf4, most of them proudly on our XI servers! It pains me greatly  to play  in someone elses house.

It simply comes down to admins or members working together to start up the server. If we don't have that then we should focus on one server and have it run 24 hours a day. Why have 2 servers if we don't have the players to put in the work to get it started or going. We have tried many things with the US server, we have tried different map rotations, different gametypes, different amount of slots and in the end it always ends up with a server that no one plays on or its very hard to get going. Just maybe we don't have the US support to run a BF server. When BF1 comes out I'm sure it won't be an issue getting a server going but right now just doesn't seem like there is the interest in the US BF side of things. I could be wrong I don't play the game because I suck ass and don't have the time to get good at it, but from what I hear and read, we have tried just about everything to get this server going. This is also the most expensive server we run.
