Souleater got a reaction from YACCster in There is a International Insurgency Sandstorm Tournament on August 22nd
$500 prize pool doesn't seem bad for a game that has no esports scene. I'm still stuck here in the USA so I can't play on this craptop of mine, if anyone wants to play insurgency sandstorm competitively nows your chance.

Souleater got a reaction from coolmd in Why I Refunded the New MW as of now
Here I am just going to list some points of why I canceled/refunded my preorder of MW 2019, then I'm going to go into detail into my contentions.
1. PS4 Exclus. for survival
2. No clear stance on mtx/lootboxes
3. Most of the things the COD community is hyped for is mostly through leaks
1. Ps4 Exclus. for survival
As you might heard, the well loved survival mode for the new MW is being restricted for ps4 for a whole year. A lot of you might not care, but with the new crossplay, I was seriously hyped to play with friends who don't own a good pc and rather play on console. The last time I played something remotely in the survival genre was Titanfall 2 last played 2017. While having ps4 exclusivity for a few days might not have been such a huge letdown, having it exclusive for a whole entire year is what makes it so mind-blowing. Honestly, by the time survival mode comes to PC and XBOX, the new COD would've started or finished its beta and on the verge of being released. Since I am a huge fan of survival co-op, this had a huge impact on my refund.
2. No clear stance on mtx/lootboxes
For those who don't know about BO4. It started out very well, marketing was done well, everyone was hyped, and then the paywalls were made. Activision, in my opinion, does not come to support the player but rather milk them. I have a similar saying back in Korea, which has most of its games being gacha/cash grabs, that companies only fall down their knees if one has more money. My thought process on this is that while the new MW will initially not have game breaking guns in lootboxes, it will happen in the following months after reviews are published because Acitivision has made their money from launch sales and preorders. We do know its going to happen sooner or later as long as mtx and lootboxes are legal in video games. Overall, this had the most impact on my refund because I don't want to spend extra money on a game I bought for $60.
3. Most of the things the COD community is hyped for is mostly through leaks
Honestly, if a leaker puts out consistently correct data, then we tend to trust them. But in the end, leaks are leaks. They might be true, they might be false because they haven't been verified by the developers. If it is, then its no longer a leak, its news from a developer announcement. I've grown up in a society where you shouldn't believe everything that there is. In my home country, people are still being stalked through hidden cameras, shady buisness dealings are still occuring, the school system is corrupt and bribed to no end, and people are dying from the simplest lies. So no, I do not trust that the new MW will bring back reinforce, gun game, and etc as a always available playlist like BF 4 but rather as a temp playlist like BO4 in order to "save server space". Honestly, I was hyped, I was hyped for the campaign, the Spec Ops, the new game modes, and the survival. But with Activision behind the scenes, I don't know if I can trust the new COD to live up to its standards.

Souleater got a reaction from piglo in Info on MW 2019

Which insurgency server are we shutting down. last time I checked all three were running pretty much full all the time. I could be wrong. Might want to check with Barron.

Souleater reacted to Daemon in November 2018 >XI< update
The Day of Infamy server got shut down, Rugger must have confused it for Insurgency due to the gametracker page.

Souleater reacted to Ruggerxi in November 2018 >XI< update
Just an update on some things going on with >XI<
1. We now have 2 servers Insurgency Sandstorm and the Insurgency admin team is doing a great job already on getting the servers populated. Find the
details for the servers on our gametracker server list on the front page.
2. Battlefield V has just been released and we have a large group playing together in Teamspeak so if you wanna join in you can find the Teamspeak
server details on the gametracker server list on the front page. The password to get into it is crappy
3. We are having a memorial event for a member that passed away that played in the COD4 Ace mod server his name was Male, the event will be held on
Dec. 1 and 2, for all the details please see this post https://www.xtremeidiots.com/forums/topic/73827-us-male-tribute-dec-1st-2nd-cod4-ace-mod/
4. Our current dedicated server that is hosting all our gameservers is getting to its max. So we have 2 options, #1 we rent another dedicated server
which will increase our monthly donation goal by about $130, #2 we start getting rid of some old servers that are either not being used or not being
used enough to justify keeping them running. I wanna try option #2 first, I already shut down some old COD4 servers that are not being used anymore
along with an Insurgency server that wasn't getting populated. I am also shutting down the COD4 ROTU Zombie server, this server constantly has 50
zombies connected to it and it's using CPU that we need for other servers that are more popular. We will see if this changes any of the issues we are
having with lag on the servers for the next couple months. If it doesn't help we will have to look at getting another dedicated server, but that
means we will need more monthly donations.
5. There has been some compliants lately about there being a lack of admin coverage for the servers during certain parts of the day. I have worked
with the Head Admin teams for each game and we have some changes that I hope will help with the admin coverage on the servers.
Thanks for reading and hope you have a great day here at >XI<

Souleater reacted to Barron in We are now running 2 Insurgency Sandstorm Servers!
Regards to GameMe I have no idea. It will have to be GameMe at the end of the day if they decide to support.
They have a server browser in Sandstorm now , they got rid of the matchmaking as seen above in the screenshot I posted

I made a donation to the server, I really enjoy playing here. Hopefully someday I will get an invite, but if not, hope you guys stay around until i cant see anymore! I know i am not as good as some, and some maps really are hard for me to see...old age and bad eyes! LOL

Souleater reacted to Barron in Insurgency Competition for Novemeber
Considering Insurgency Sandstorm will be released in December I have decided to run a competition for next month for a copy of Insurgency Sandstorm
It will be for whoever gets the most kills this month with the Model 10 pistol. Stats will be tracked daily and will be totted up across all 3 servers.
I have a auto pop up message setup for the servers too soon. Just waiting on the servers which are full at the moment to be empty ?
Anyway I might add in an extra copy of the game too depending on the turnout

Hey guys. You still need to define what excessive means. It seems that different admin have different ideas about that. It should be more clearly defined so it can be more consistently enforced.
