Thread: 40+ people at restart

I haven't been able to get on much the last couple days as my wife has had total control of them. Anyway, I had a really late night at work and didn't get home until after 2AM MST. I hadn't yet updated the patch, but couldn't believe it when I logged on...there were over 40 people on... I downloaded the patch, started playing and got into a good game and before I knew it the server restarted at 5AM. I haven't been on at these hours for a very long time, but if I remember correctly the server resets every day at this time.? Anyways, we had 30-40 people on at 5AM...diggin it. I'll probably have another late night tommorrow...damn, I hope we got another full house. I also set a personal record with 1500+ points half way through round not that really matters...I'm not sure about the new point system as I didn't even have a kill , but I must have been doing something right.

That's awesome. Great job. I haven't been able to get in yet and probably won't until next Thursday as my son has an out of town baseball tournament this weekend and I have a meeting in Atlanta next week until Wednesday. See you all when I get back .

What happened after the restart? Did people join up again or did they all go to sleep? We can look into forwarding that restart time if we see this as an issue.

I just looked at game monitor and I guess there was only about 25 people on when it restarted...I was so into the game I didn't really notice that people started dropping out...But, yeah, the restart killed it...At this point, I don't foresee it as a problem as most of time the server has died out by the time I get off work, much less 5AM my time. But maybe we're starting to get some late night crowds.

I have been trying to get the server active late at night, atleat when i have 4 or 5 of my guys on, Last night rocked TTP was rocking from 11:45pm-4:30am we had so very close bad ass matches and alot of team work it was truly the definition of PR!

This can be the single most annoying thing in the game.

Other team had four people, ours had 3. They had shady tactics, but that's not even the point. This nemesis221 guy joins the game, shoots one of my teammate in the back, and we kick him.

So... again and again, we had to kick him. And there's no way to not let him the game, there's no block feature, there's no one and done feature, there's not a fucking thing to prevent someone who purposely TKs the team from joining and fucking up the team because he's on the other teams' friend list.

What the fuck?

Yup. There's absolutely nothing you can do but abandon the game and find other people to play with. The best thing you can do is find a set of 7 friends and just play versus with each other. That's what I do when playing with friends. Sometimes we have lobby captains and pick our players and other times we let the game select it. In any case, we all enjoy playing with and against each other so all of the problems encountered in pub games don't appear.

When the choad is bugging you, find a steam friend and tell them to set up auto-join so that once the jerk is voted off, your friend gets into game right away.

Although I have never had this exact situation happen, I do hate it when one teams friend gets stuck on your team. Now all of a sudden you got someone on your team who thinks they're an expert. They spend so much time trying to "predict" what they're friends are going to do that they're completely oblivious to any change of plan that goes on during the game. How stupid is it when some guy says "I know how they play. They open the door and take a hard left." Come to find out that they ran straight down the middle and you miss out on a perfectly good ambush.
