UKWF - UK Warfare (Europe)

[MrSh@vid]

Goos server IMO.
I always get an excellent ping and play on it almost exclusively nowadays. Its always a good laugh aswell (especially on mumble).

Glad you enjoy the ping and being part of some great rounds on mumble.

There was a point a few weeks back where there were so many complete noobs destroying the gameplay on this server that I actually started to play different servers. But that seems to have been almost completely resolved now.

Their has been a recent influx of new people, and while we do not discourage new players from playing with us, if people take the mick, and muck around they will be delt with.

I don't understand how people can say the admins are bad, almost all issues are quickly resolved by them..

We aim to have an admin on the server during up times 100% of the time, however this isn't always possible due to us being a UK clan, when their is a problem however we do try to resolve it as quickly as possible.

Its also a plus that there ARE alot of UKWF members usually on the server and most of them are friendly enough although recently I have noticed maybe 1 member (which out of many isn't bad at all compared to some servers) who seems to have some kinda inflated ego/ attitude problem which, although it has never been aimed at me, really annoys me every time I see this person getting pissed off with other people or barking orders all over the chat as if they are some kind of ex special forces/ 5 star general super soldier (I'm sorry but its just a game and I don't have time for people who take non serious matters THAT seriously) and I think this sort of stuff should be adressed or at least talked about because there really is nothing more annoying than someone saying "You guys jump out the chopper my squad needs it because I'm a better squad leader" or this sort of thing. But this really isn't a big issue just a personal gripe because 99% of the clan members are top fellas

All of the comments on this thread are noted by Sr. Clan members, but if you do feel that you have been mistreated (i know you said you didn't in your post, but if you ever did.) please feel free to submit a complaint via our website.

The whole balance of teams issue isn't a problem even though some would like to think it is, I think its just an excuse. I personally have lost count of the ammount of times a so called 'clan member heavy team' has been beaten by a well organised public side. And even when the UKWF sided team does win its not like its always an absolute steamroller victory.

I think generally the games where one team is steam rollered is generally the one's involving lots of Squad leader's on mumble, but yes even when UKWF are mostly on the same side, things don't always go one way.

The map rotations are good aswell. And they are changed on what seems to be a regular basis. I think they also set the rotations up so that the variety in gameplay is good, theres no rotations where its constantly the same teams or gamemodes. It will go from mestia to kashan to an insurgency map etc. Instead of some servers where all US maps will be played followed by all British maps etc.

Overall a very good server with a very good community who play on it. If you plan to play on it get on mumble though. Its much more fun that way I've even seen my dead body teabagged by a bunch of Russians playing ABBA on mestia once.

Glad you like our server, Yes mumble is a lot of good fun, and greatly increases the gameplay, giving squads fantastic co-ordination.

And the Abba song? Well that's one of my personal favourites.

There is 1 thing that is annoying and is the reason i dont want to play on your server. It's the kicking for members and you have a lot of members.
You guys need 2 reserved slots !

Unfortunately it's a problem we hope to solve soon, in their old age a few of our members take a while to actually join the server meaning we may have to kick a few people, ahead of the new patch, we will be adding a reserved slot to the server which, while their is less spots for public players to get on, the chances of them getting kicked will be greatly reduced.

I think at last count we have enough UKWF members who play PR that if everyone was on we could fill the whole server with UKWF. I appreciate that kicking for members can be annoying for the public and as Sh@vid said we will be adding a reserved slot, however it's the clan members that pay for the server and one of the privilages of joining the clan is that space is made for you.

And the Abba song? Well that's one of my personal favourites.

You big dancing queen you!

I frapsed some of the abba movements from that round of mestia, was a real laugh. Ill post them up sometime.

I hope thats not me Lone Assasin. I do bark a bit in chat if I see 26 of 32 attacking. and the rest in my squad while we are defending against 2 squads. I like to see people looking, thinking and talking to each other as I feel this is how you cant be beaten. By intellegent thinking and constant evaluation by squad leaders Of whos where and why.

The rule for naming squads tho is something that is good but can also be a bad thing. As some seem to whore the same special vechiles everytime. This is something we try to discourage and allow everyone a chance at doing from time to time. We even kick our own members who have stuck at tank whoring or claiming the jets to often. Its good if people mix it up so everyone can try the toys. regardless of whos the best in what. The only thing I cant stand about our own server and which I think you'll find on any.. IS the bitchy arguements about whos got the sniper kit.

But everyone thankyou for you comments good and bad. All types of critical feedback welcome. As it helps us to try to improve and see other points of view.

When I say barking orders I don't mean tactical decisions etc. And yes you do I can't criticise anyone for this because I tend to type up to squads who seem to be doing jack all. And if you could hear me when my mic is muted most of the time I'm just shouting "WHAT THE FUCK ARE 12 PEOPLE DOING AT BASE!!!" to my screen. I also think its fair game to do so when a valid point is being made which in your case it usually is a valid point. As I said in my post, its when people do completely ridiculous things such as my example or ask you to do something which seems completely pointless and then drag the fact they are somehow superior or an admin or something into it.

And its not you, because if it was I wouldn't join your squad EVER

Infact this problem seems to have worn down lately only to be replaced by another. The new problem is the squads. Yesterday on one map there were 9 squads. about 4 of which had only between 1 and 3 people in, and they weren't even squads like a sniper squad or a pilot squad. It seems like some people don't want to join someone elses squad and so will lock themselves in a 1 or 2 man infantry squad when theres no need. Its something which should be easy to crack down on aswell.

UKWF server is by far the best server i have played on in PR and is now the only server i will play on ( other then having a blast in the jet on training servers )

UKWF server is well administrated and has great game play where 99% of the players will do what is best to beat the enemy team, you do get a couple of people who will do things which they shouldn't but saying that, all servers will at some point have this problem, the squad play in the server is nothing but great, having a few laughs along the way as well as getting the objectives complete. the map rotation is great i think they have mixed it up rather nicely.

The UKWF PR community is one of the best ive seen in all of my time in gaming which would be many years now, there are friendly clan members and supporting locals on the server.

It is pretty hard for me to point out any faults in the server, other then having to wait half an hour to enter the server its self but thats down to it being such a kick *** time.

To the people who are talking about the admins, personally i have never seen any abuse and in the UK time zone there is always at least 1 admin/member on at any time in the day, they have made a couple of mistakes in the past by kicking the wrong person but thats about it, they give plenty of warning to players who are breaking the rules before they start taking full action on the matters, and when they do take action they are very fair in doing so, i see that very rarely people are banned only kicked which isnt to big of a deal since you only gotta re-join and say sorry and your pals again once more.

Overall i think i would rate the UKWF PR Server a 9.5 out of 10 ( not 10 because no server is perfect )
if there are some of you who have never played in the UKWF server before i highly recommend you join the fun and im sure once you try it you will be coming back in there next time you play.

Thanks UKWF For The amazing server / community you run. like last time, when i get some more cash expect it to be donated to you

Had a decent round here the other day even on the ruined Mestia.
Unfortunately I can never get on with my clan, only if I'm alone, but that's a testament to the quality of the server and its administration.
Keep up the good work guys.

Who joins Ex-3odus's squad anyway?!

Regarding squads-squad locking/kicking etc. is always down to dedicated squads, however when their are a number of pointless/wasteful squads we will ask people to unlock, this is purely down to the fact we can only have a limit of 9, if their was more then it may be okay, but sadly we can't.

Great to have you on the server all the time mate-and i hope you keep this up as it's always funny hearing you speak .

UKWF server is well administrated and has great game play where 99% of the players will do what is best to beat the enemy team, you do get a couple of people who will do things which they shouldn't but saying that, all servers will at some point have this problem, the squad play in the server is nothing but great, having a few laughs along the way as well as getting the objectives complete. the map rotation is great i think they have mixed it up rather nicely.

We try to deal with problem players as soon as possible, and it's good to have a laugh (as long as we don't go to far, most of the time!)

The UKWF PR community is one of the best i've seen in all of my time in gaming which would be many years now, there are friendly clan members and supporting locals on the server.

Glad you like the community Mac!

It is pretty hard for me to point out any faults in the server, other then having to wait half an hour to enter the server its self but thats down to it being such a kick *** time.

Well thanks to the Dev's hard work at least you can smoke (a joint-i know what you're like!) in future while waiting via the Auto Deploy Feature.

To the people who are talking about the admins, personally i have never seen any abuse and in the UK time zone there is always at least 1 admin/member on at any time in the day, they have made a couple of mistakes in the past by kicking the wrong person but thats about it, they give plenty of warning to players who are breaking the rules before they start taking full action on the matters, and when they do take action they are very fair in doing so, i see that very rarely people are banned only kicked which isnt to big of a deal since you only gotta re-join and say sorry and your pals again once more.

Thanks for the feedback, i look forward to seeing you on the server again soon.

Glad to hear you had a decent game, i'm sorry to hear your're struggling to get on with members, if however you fellas do get on all at the same time, please feel free to shout up in Global chat and we should generally be able to swap you to the same side. (Smartbalance is currently being a pain, but we are hoping to have this sorted pretty soon.)

UKWF bartofslaves whatever his name is i was watching the other day and a guy got a bomb car on al basrah and because bartofslaves wanted it he started shooting the bomb car and telling the guy to get out cos he wanted it to blow a tank, which i thought this was a little imature for a member of UKWF.

Surely it was that guys perogative to do with the bomb car as he wished seen as i witnessed him get into it 1st not to be bullied by a clan member to give it up, bartofslaves was standing in front of the car shooting it and blocking him from moving.

Ive witnessed a few things on this server which frankly has stopped some of me and my clan m8's playing there which is a shame but we play on tactics and teamwork and other servers now as a result of witnessing a few UKWF members behaving in this manner.

I have also seen Smiley.PR kick ppl for reasons that seemed no where near as imature as bartofslaves shooting a bomb car and bullying other players to give it up because of his UKWF tags, its clearly not the enjoyable atmosphere people want to play in !!

All your feedback has been noted and will be looked into accordingly, if you want to submit a formal complaint our site is UK Warfare [UKWF] Clan website.
Due to the nature of what you've said i'll not respond directly to it here-but if you want to take it further my PM box is always open,

Cheers

Shavid.

I really like this server, usually a good vibe going on in the evenings (UK time) and i've had some really great games here.

I think Qwai river needs taking out of map rotation though, the maps always on whenever i seem to play

There's a way to allow people to switch despite autobalance somewhere in BF2cc.
Those people/clans who do wait half an hour for a slot certainly deserve to be able to choose their side.
We've got the ability to do it on Pelitutka, don't know which clans regularly play on UKWF but I'm sure it would make them happier.

[MrSh@vid]

It is a known issue their is problems with our Smartbalance Masterbake, i'll give our Techie a nudge to see if their is anymore he can do, but due to poor support from our server providers its difficult to get it sorted. We may be changing this very soon, and i will make sure this post is updated with any changes, Clan's that do come on our server often will have their names added to the list yes.

[Thalin]

Could I request an unban please? Yes I blew up an admin while he was in the command post, but it was for the best! He was spamming enemy sightings to create words on the map, like hardcore vanilla style!

Yeah I understand the annoyance with running a server, we have a vBF2 one even if it's only for matches, and both the provider and BF2cc can be a pain.

If you need any guidance I would talk to Zi8 or any of the other Pelitutka admins, I know they definitely seem to have overcome any problems with smartbalance and can also switch random players quite quickly.

[MrSh@vid]

Cheers for the advice mate i'll be sure to contact them if we need help.

[Arnoldio]

Nice server guys, UKWF guys are mostly on, thats a plus too. I enjoy playing on it.

Tho I waited 25 minutes for a slot to free up and then got kicked the secod when I came in (by admin/vote)...I really wanted to destory something ^^

[Wicca]

I have lots of fun on this server, well admined, and if your on mumble and ask for a spot, they look for idle people.

Very many mumbelers play here, and you always have a good round.
