I'm still considering puretech. It seems the ratio between those who like and and those who hate it is 50/50. If anyone has a good argument to put it back in, I might.

QuotehaarpIf people avoid Beta altogether, I'll force custom maps upon Alpha again.
Why? That seems rather counterproductive .

Alpha now running official, Beta all maps. Puretech has also been disabled.

Funmode has returned! Our favorite no-coolant, df-CLRM server is back. At least for the time being.
But remember: NO FUN ALLOWED!
IMPORTANT:
-The buy menu is static. It does NOT reflect any changes made!
-Some variants might now be slightly more expensive than the buy menu states! I try to keep them below the rank spawn Cbills, though.
-Variants with additional free tons won't sho

Changes!
With Huntress out of the picture, Funbocks is now responsible for around 95% of the playerbase. That comes with obligations to provide good service.
Over on the MWLL forums people express their desire for official maps and to get rid of most custom maps. Well, okay.
Proposed changes for Alpha:
- Reduce map rotation to official maps (official maps only)
- Add a few good customs m

Heat! - 12 years ago
Greetings. It is me, haarp. You may know from educational threads such as A new heat system, fix heat already and fuck this shit. I am here today to talk about a topic that concerns us all. Heat.
I won't even bother to post this on the MWLL forum. They have shown that they don't really care about fixing critical things. Or anything, really.
So why post it in the first place? Well,

Well ISvsIS wasn't very popular. Some liked it, but the majority was rather 'meh' about the whole thing.
I don't see how CLvsCL would be any better.

Zathrus has made some extensive tests in that regard:
The Crysis Wars server loves to send massive packets. Now what happens to them in transit I can not tell. If a modem receives the original packet, it might be too big for it. If it's broken up, the modem might receive short bursts of lots of packets, which can also be problematic.

If ELH stacking on one side in game that means nothing but most of the players are cadets under lead of 1-2 experienced players. Just one example - 7 ELH players stacked on one side yesterday on TC_snowblind and TC_slurm, we lost both games.
And that is ok! As long as a team does not intentionally roflstomp a bunch of MechWarrior(1)s, you can of course play together. I think that

Teamstacking is indeed frowned upon, but teamkilling is not the answer.
Yeah, yeah, we all get emotional, Rad. When shit hits the fan, your own team can't even figure out which end the PPC shoots out of, the enemy is stacking and the game is plain fucking retarded. But really, it doesn't warrant such dickish behavior. And I don't want to see it again.
And ELH, please refrain

I cant really pinpoint the problem from here. What is your ping to the server?
It could be that your ISP uses some weird kind of throttling or simply has some strange route to Falkenstein. You could try running a traceroute:
tracert cjw.dyndns.biz
but I doubt that would help us much.

You probably don't want to hear this, but the problem is on your end.
Our datacenter is located in Falkenstein/Vogtland and has a pretty good pipe to the net. Few people have problems like you describe. Either your hardware just can't deal with populated servers, or your ISP has a crappy connection to Falkenstein, for some reason. In any case, there is nothing I can do.

This weekend, on Funbocks Beta:
Freebirth Friday!
Take those Inner Sphere assets for a spin without those pesky Ryokens and Mk2s messing with your fun. That's right, classic IS vs IS action!
The event will be held this Friday and may be extended to the entire weekend, depending on feedback.

Hello!
We are international, so our language is almost exclusively English. I also prefer everyone to use it, because it is extremely rude to fall back to your native tongue just because there is someone else out of 26 who also speaks it.
Anyway, Widowmaker, you seem to be a decent guy (unlike a certain other recent applicant). I'm looking forward to seeing you ingame!

Now that there are 3 Funbock, I would really want to see Alpha on mixed mode, Beta on TC only and Gamma on LMS, SA and very important TOS for new players.
While I understand why some want TC-only servers, mixed mode is preferable for both Alpha and Beta. It offers more variety.
I'm considering LMS for Gamma. Although that game mode is said to be quite problematic.

Funbocks Gamma has been added. It's running Solaris Arena with 14 players and will offer lots of custom maps, as usual.
An exclusive map is also being made right at this moment!
As usual, see the sticky for up-to-date information.

MechWarrior(1) waited. The progress bar above him blinked and stopped in the air. There were BAs on the cap. He didn't see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to his teammates were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway. MechWarrior(1) was a Mechwarrior for fourteen years. When he was young he watched the mechs and he said to dad "I wa

I've looked at the logs. It seems some players had problems with
Remote disconnected: Failed ReconfigureObject 1
which appears to be an issue on some older maps that use GeomEntities instead of brushes. Also see .
I've removed the map from the rotation again. Thank you for this report!

We now have two servers running, Funbocks Alpha and Funbocks Beta.
The playerlimit has been reduced to 26 for each, as 28 still caused problems for some players with slower machines or connections.
As of now, both share the same (randomized) levelrotation, but that might change in the future.
As usual, see the sticky for up-to-date information.
