Title: Paruni needs your suggestions...
Post by: Gregersen on August 27, 2013, 05:01:51 pm
Dear members of ArgonathRPG,
Paruni is in need of your help - quite fast, actually.


After consideration, I purchased a Battlefield 3 server for us - the only problem I see is that the current players, playing servers on Battlefield 3, has a favourite server that they will join, whenever they want to play Battlefield 3, and therefor the server will never reach the activity required for maximum joy of playing on the server - it's not funny to play 1vs1 all the time.. - we've had the server for almost 1½ month, and the only players there was JCstodds, Pancher and I,

Two thoughts came to mind..

What game would fit better, for you, the users of our communities? (Shooting game)
.. we're attempting to make our servers fit for everyone, therefor we're asking you


After calculating and thinking of how to draw members to our communities, to get a bigger usergroup, I thought about going back to old basic games, such as Counter-strike: Source.. Maybe Counter-strike: Global Offensive?
For the price of the Battlefield 3 server, we could get a 1x18 slot Counter-strike GO server, or 2x18 slots CS:S servers? These are just examples..

I've had CS:S servers before, and ran them with 20/20 players 18 hours a day, succesfully

Please give us your help, for a brief second.

Post your suggestions here, or take your time, help us and create yourself an account at Paruni forums and post in the topic, that is to be found there aswell! Link below

PARUNI


To those of you wondering, my personal budget lays between using $15-$30 a month, on a gameserver for Paruni.
Donations welcome, PM me

I would start playing CS:Source if Argonath would have a server there. It is more cheap and it is a game that requires time to improve your own playing, instead of time to advance your player to gain advantages. Its concept is original. I don't know about the rest, but I vote Counter-strike: Source. I am VAC-banned, but if the case is that you give CS:Source a try, but on a VAC-secured server - I will definitely purchase it again.

You must be aware that the server will be a part of "PARUNI" and not "argonathrpg" as such, but since the communities are so close, and sisters, I am trying to integrate as much as possible.

As Argonath's most played server is the SAMP RPG server, I suggest we should focus on the SAMP ParUni server - which also is ParUni's most played server. Most SAMP ParUni players are SAMP ArgonathRPG players.

I have absolutely nothing to do with SA:MP Paruni, that is up to SA:MP Paruni leaders.

Not realy,1.6 is way better then CS:GO. CS1.6 is way more played and more popular then CS GO.CS GO is a failure,a real disapointment to most of CS fans like me.
CS S was way better then CS GO,but 1.6 is a legend.

Oh,btw 1.6 is just a version of the game Counter Strike.
Counter Strike is cs 1.5,1.6,1.7,1.8 ,they're just updates of the game.

That is not true.
CS 1.6 is dying, yes...but CS:Source is still the most popular. CS:GO is the newest, so it has all the hype and updates, but many veteran players are disgusted by it, as it is a rip-off of Call Of Duty in many ways within it's design.

Either way, we already have CS servers in Paruni. The only problem is that no one has been maintaining them for quite some time. Gandalf already hosts them, so if they were fixed, it would probably be a better idea to focus on other popular games if you are looking to expand Paruni. There isn't really a point in buying servers for something we already host on the Server Owners' dime. :P

I 110% agree with ePs over there. Doesn't matter if I'm a long-term 1.6 player - CSGO is still a failure. A lot I love about 1.6 is what the movement offers and its fascinating recoil. CS:S was the begging of an end to the actual Counter-Strike legacy.

P.S
I have over 1780 hours of Counter-Strike of playtime on Steam.

Played CS:GO, the new weapons update ruined the balance, it's more like Team Fortress 2 but with with no story line.

Post by: Cyril on August 28, 2013, 12:36:29 am
I love to see "CS:GO is a failure" with no argument of why. CS:GO actually requires more skill since hitboxes are smaller than 1.6. CS:GO is still being developped and is only 1 year old. They are tweaking the games every week except major update that requires more time. CS:GO Pro's like NiP are helping the Dev Team to improve the game constantly.
And when I hear it's a CoD Rip-Off.. haha.

How does it ruins the balance? It's just skins...

Dude... Have you ever played 1.6? CSGO doesn't require more skill at all. My argument was that cs was loved by gamers because of the movement and recoil it delivered, which in CSS developers started to get rid of. CSGO is not the counter-strike we want to get back. In CSGO you can't dodge an awp bullet with bunnyhopping, you can't fake a peak with CTRL as professional as you could've done in 1.6 and you can't do a 2nd no-zoom shot because in CSGO it zooms back up instantly and because of that it doesn't look that awesome.

I probably played CS before you were able to walk. I started playing CS since 2001 and I played it for 7-8 years. I stopped because every of my friends stopped and I started back with CS:GO. The recoil on CS 1.6 is inexistant compared to CS:GO.. so it's actually way easier to play 1.6. Not to mention that the movement are WAY slower which make it more easier to kill people as you don't need as fast reflex as CS:GO.

as a Counter-Strike (1.6) veteran, I like CS:GO.
Although recently my mouse started striking and is funky in GO. I think I should invest in a mouse pad or something.

Harris, GO is not as bad as you might think it is. Play it for some time and you'll eventually start to like it, I'm sure.

as for the Paruni server, I'd like to see a GO one.

According to Gandalf, they are still there and being hosted by him. They just need Developers and leaders.

CS:GO actually requires more skill since
No offence but that's realy the most stupid thing I've ever heard in my entire life.CS:GO is more like a CoD copy mixed with TF2.The gameplay is identical with CoD,and the ability to sell and buy weapons from steam market is more of a tf2 thing...I personaly hate CS:GO,but I love CS 1.6.In CS GO you 'find' weapons ,that's based on TF2,and it completly fucked up the game.CS is supposed to be a game where you only have to shoot people,not search for weapons and do bussines with them.

Get rid of the BF3 server for now if no one is using it. BF3 is getting old for many and there doesn't seem to be many playing from Argonath (even though many bought it on the humble bundle)


  If you want players to join though you will have to sit in the server yourself to seed it with friends. No one is going to join a server with 0 players, unless they stumble across it just to practice with aircraft. This will apply to BF4 as well. It won't go anywhere without sitting in the server yourself and playing often. In this respect BF4 may be more succesful for Paruni as it will be more novel for all players and have more chance of players joining. I will be getting it eventually.


  No matter what the game though, no one will join if it is empty to start with.

And what are you arguments? I mean, valid one. Because being able to sell or buy skins is not a valid one. It's just a necessity to make Counter-Strike progressing by attracting more and more players before it goes Free to Play.

Garry's Mod would be more of an Argo thing, would it not? I don't really see much use of it in Paruni when Paruni is meant to be a DM community, not roleplay or free-roam.

TF2 I could see as being justified, however.

A minigame server would be quite popular, all of the mini-games involve killing the other in one form or another, can see that working for paruni.
