Agree with the orange cat on this one. It increased lags a lot and it becomes a nice slideshow when server is full or on maps (MLB) that were already laggy.

small orange guy is right...

yeah, its nice that its easyer to get in, but if server is going to be full, its damn hard to get good maps, most of maps are too small for 50 players... MLB-maps are big, but like viduus said, they are damn laggy. imo 40 players are enough, sometimes even bit too much :P

i wanted to make a topic off this problem but our cat allready did.

i thinks its bad that the server has now 50 slots.

its a mess in server now. more slots and no punkbuster (i dont want punkbuster) is atracting cheaters. and the more slots atracs noobs and rulebreakers. i dont know why it is but it is.

i think the server was better before. like the guys above said. the maps are to small and with 44 many people had lag.

i think its not a good idea.

seems me that the quake3 engine is laggy only over 32 players...
but the PS servers are very good and i can see a bit of lag only over 40 players... 40 players with some specs slots is the best... :P

And probablly that will stay (correct me if i am wrong Bow). That was only experiment as i could ee, and im glad ps1 come back to lower number of slots. 50 slots re not only causing the technical problems but it also makes that administrating server is kickin ur balls. Especially when u re only admin there.

Dont like it anyway, 36 would still be too much, but since youd like a number around 40 I said 36 to not shock you too hard. ^^

50 is nice for me however people complaining about lag.
in the past when i was playing alot on bunker servers (and was member) my main server was also bunker #1 withs have 64 slots and completly no lag at all.
seems some problem with some maps for example or internet provider but atleast i dont have any lag on ps1 with 50 slots.

vote for stay.

No need to panic. I was also wondering yesterday :wink: . I was n t aware about the increase of slots, i connected and indeed saw the server with a kind of 24 vs 24 fight around :D ; after checking the server.cfg i found a message from Landser tellin me that he changed the number of slots to 50, i wanted testin the server limits so i keep it runin for some hours, but after some crashs landser reduc it to 48 and later i also reduce it to 46 (42+4 private slots). So, only 2 more slots around, imo not realy a big deal. We also ran PB for some hours in PS1, the two thinks together could explain the lags problem imo.

So, now the PB if off but i will run it time 2 time in the server :wink: . About the slots, for the moment i did n t noticed any serious problem but can reduce it again if there is a need.

I ve just backed to the number of slots we had some months ago (42+4 private =46), i can still reduce it and back to 40+4 but no more. It s already hard to connect when the server is full and we have all the time to kick players, if i reduce it to less slots, you players will be the first to suffer. Btw, not sure removin even 2,4 or 6 slots resolve your bad ping problems, we all know that it s more from you connection and config than 2 more or less slots in the server :wink: .
Now about "big maps", due to the number of players we have i can t run only small maps, it will just be unplayable too and cause a big mess, btw i tried to do a mix of big maps like helmsdeep,UJE or MLB maps and some other smaller ones like Fata or ET Tower.
And yeah , i didn t noticed someone jokin here :wink: .
