I've got a 32 man server, and I'm wondering what I can do to get it filled up. Right now it runs a full rotation, but that isn't working too well. I'm not a fan of making it 24/7 city maps or infantry only. But I loooove Dragon Valley. And the rest of the BF2 maps.
So what is Map of the Week, you ask? Basically, in addition to Dragon Valley, the server would also run another map. One week it might be Dragon and Karkand, the next it might be Dragon and Wake. I know [UTAC] does this on their Armored Fury server, and I must admit that part of this idea came from that (there, legal issues out of the way =p).
So a few questions:
-If I do this, should it be 32 or 64 man dragon valley (the Map of the Week will be the same size, so pick wisely)? Or Maybe 32 man, Map of the Week, 64 man, Map of the week?
-Would YOU play on this server?
This is a high-quality, serious business 32 man ranked server. 64 bit. A guy from the UK got a 123 ping on it... and the server's in Dallas. That's the kind of ping a UK dude would normally get on an East Coast server (Dallas is in the middle of the US, in case you did not know =p). He said he had a bit of trouble TVing, but his infantry fighting was fine.
This is serious, I really want to know how many people like this idea and would play it. I love having my own server that I can admin (I don't abuse it, trust me =) and I think this would be a great way to run a popular map and let players get out of the 24/7 Karkand Syndrome.
