Bad patch!!1 Baaaaaaad!

[Forbestoo]

Well....

Whatever the patch did... it killed us.
I watched our server as long as I could....
The only problem was it needed to be rebooted 25 times a day....
Now no one comes...
ever....
In the lobby for hours......
no one comes....


Cant play

Just sit there..........

I haven't seen this on other servers that have seen the application of the patch.

Have you tried manually starting a game after you connect? You can do this with the "gl_startgame" command through the "Server control" page. Usually after the game is started, players begin to join.

I filled it up for you now .

I cant get kick to work, do you just hit

` kick playername

[Edge100x]

Right now, you need to do it through the "Server control" page. You can't do it through the game console.

We have 3 or 4 threads that have been hijacked with questions about how to kick now, and I have to keep saying the same things. Please keep it in just one =\.

obviously not my intention... but understood

With all due respect, it would help greatly if you'd clean up this section of the forums and have separate sections for each game, technical support thereof etc. ala the knowledgebase. Problem is, inthe example of the kick command, those questions were embedded in other threads and no one could possibly know that until they ask.

The Crysis 2 knowledgebase is a definite work in progress right now because the information that we have from Crytek isn't accurate or complete (they don't even mention the kick command). "kick" wasn't in the KB because they didn't mention it, until after I added it yesterday. I was referring to the threads in this forum that talk about kicking: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=4

For others' reference, you and I talked more about the KB already a bit here: http://www.nfoservers.com/forums/viewto ... f=4&t=5155

Naw man....
Patch screwed us.
I'd rather have to reboot all day and have ppl come than sit there for hours by myself.



Between the piss poor launch, and this patch making things worse for us, I don't see a server renewal in our future.

Glad I didn't get three months......

gl_startgame is the cure for an empty server, no doubt about that . If you execute that whenever it empties, your server should be pretty busy.

You know Edge I'll try that out soon, but lately I've had good luck filling up the server where I've had Assault/Standard running and the other does pretty well with CTF. Guys seems to like this mode though Assault is frustrating and takes some getting used to since you only get one life

gl_startgame works like a charm.

Well for whatever reason nobody was connecting at that time its back to acting normally. Like I said, I didnt need to use that function before and Im not needing to use it now. All I've had to do is sit in the lobby and people would join. Seems to be back to normal as the server has been full since this morning. I suspect it may have been somethin I did while playing the cfg and roation files but all is good now.
