I love your server, its the only one i ever play on. Even though tankmeup is played a little too much, its still an awesome server and that map doesnt easily get boring. Plenty of people, a lot of regulars that actually work as a team.

One request. Please please please remove RTS kingdom. If you look at player counts before being on kingdom, then after the game starts, you have 28 players on it, and if kingdom is somehow voted, you have 5 noobish players and the rest bots. Its the only time the server ever empties.

Regarding only seeing around 25 servers:
I did not have Standard Servers checked, however, I was filtering out Empty and Password servers. Unchecked those and I see close to 300 servers! Oops - thought I had no filtering on. I'm leaving those filters on - don't need to see empty and passworded servers, but at least now it makes sense!

Now there is a problem if there are 275 passworded and empty servers and only 25 joinable/populated servers.

Well someones gotta get things started. If everybody waited for a server with people, no one would play

Not sure why you're only seeing 25 servers if you are running the retail version. Make sure you don't have any kind of filtering on. Even with teh standard server checkbox on I see hundreds of ONS servers.

A server is either retail or demo, not both. Torlan and Primeval are the only demo maps.

200+ Ping for me . Thats the other big problem with UT2003 / 04, a ping of 100+ and its unplayable which leaves you or just me :P with a handful of servers. For example a game like CS you can also play with a 150-200 ping good, sure a better ping is always good but you know what I mean UT is already at 100+ nearly unplayable with Shock / LG etc ...

Other problem is, I would like to play CTF, bombing run etc. but I really really hate the translocator and it seems so every server has it on, ******* I hate this annyoing ****, makes the games so boring but thats maybe just me. So I have to play VCTF, vehicles are annoying too sometimes but not so much like translocator. I hope they will remove it from UT2007 but I doubt it.

So at the end I just have like 3-5 Servers where I can play on and sadly the best servers are the demo servers where always the same maps are played like Rankin /zzzz, thats the most annoying thing in UT2004.

If you join and empty server with an eye-catching name, other people are bound to join you within a few minutes.

Yes it's pathetic and tbh I brought this up well over a year ago now.. As long as they keep demo compatibility nothing will change.

Im not sure that would help though. Id just load the demo up if I wanted to play on a demo server.

I think the prob was that by default, ONS didnt work too great, most maps became a 30second race to the primary node and then a dull slog into overtime. . There have been some great ONS servers around, but they have succeeded thanks to hard work from the admins, we've been lucky over at Titan to have a couple of dedicated guys who have set up great node links, and got new maps online. So a big "thanks" to them for making the server work.

Unfortunately the out of the box server default setup wasnt too hot, perhaps Epic should have revised the dedicated server download to include a decent map rotation with the popular maps with good node links etc. Or maybe they can do that next time. Lets face it, there are stock maps of all gametypes that were universally rejected but must have seemed good at the time!

Redplanet and Severance can give a good game, but are particularly frustrating with eg super weapons on. I quite liked Adara (is that the caves one) and Icarus (the buildings in the sky one) but these are even less seen online . I dont get why Icarus was so univerally rejected, it was quite good, and more so with out the base bound levis.

RTS Kingdom has been removed. And we have upped the map vote limit so that some of the popular maps will be spread out a bit more.

Thanks for your input, and thanks for playing there. Be sure to join our forums @ www.clandw.com to discuss the server.

Oh... I barely visit these forums anymore, let alone play this game. And you brought the exact reason I have banished this game from ever installing itself again on my computer until the problem is solved.

What you a describe is not a problem, but a plague. Every single servers I could ever play with a average pings (150 and less, I'm generous already since I don't like playing between 100-150) was nothing but god **** Rankin, Face Classic... I never had problem with ONS, but I hated that. If this is now even a problem in ONS, I can't imagine how awful things are.

I will NEVER understand why they kept demo compatibility. All these demos severs would serve GREAT if converted in true standard servers, with a lot of good maps and no funky mutators that give you a special kind of games, which are fun only 2 minutes.


So yeah, all I had was either : Demo Servers all around, or servers with non-default configurations that ruined it (sniper type server, insta-gig, and a lot of **** like RPG and crazy stuff that kill evryone in one shot. Yes, I had fun with these - the first time I tried time). I want variety, but at least I wanted a good server to go on.

Considering I wasted 60$ for THAT, I feel ripped off now. Yes, ripped off, simply because it wouldn't be that hard to fix that "plague". God, I hope this will not come to UT3. Trust me, I will never put my hand on another of Epic's game if UT3 got that problem with servers.

actually torlan and rankin are two very good maps. Maybe even the best maps out there for ONS or DM

Actually Torlan has more design flaws than most other retail ONS maps.
