server auto-populate

[DDS]

Matchmaking works for COD, not PR. I slectively pick the servers ill play on, and people there do that aswell, so i mainly end up with people who kinda play good. I do not want randomers in my games, nor would i use this system. Also, i play on those 2, 3 servers, which have certain set of rules, so your way would be more than useless for me, and probably everybody on this forum.

Hmm. This isn't matchmaking. The original idea was to help server admins SEED their servers. I also selectively pick the servers I play on too. But when there are like 4 full servers 64/64 your shit out of luck.

which have certain set of rules, so your way would be more than useless for me, and probably everybody on this forum.

I don't see really too varied amount of rules. My biggest pet peeve is the road kills but the children cry for it and get to have it. Rules are only as good as the admins who enforce them anyway. Good luck with that.

I like the idea. If done properly, it would reduce the fear of joining an empty server as wwell as help to populate little ssrvers, thus helping the mod grow.

I especially like the idea of showing other players preferences to other ppotential players, again takes the fear away.

If done properly this would be a fine addition.

I've played on chinese, russian and german servers. Except for the language barrier they are just as good as english speaking players. I sometimes find a squad leader who knows a bit of english. I'm embarrassed sometimes at how americans act around foreigners. PR is a culture shock for some but I really enjoy it.

If done properly this would be a fine addition.

Probably not even possible. The auto deploy is a nice but the wait is very long sometimes.

There is more than enough servers to join, but not enough players to join a server. Because PR maps not running skirmish mode at start, playing such large maps with population of >10 is not fun. I usually only play in my region and there is only usually only 2 servers available. They are both constantly full at times and to even get in a playable games with regional ping. It becomes a chore. I wonder how many others are trying to join the same game as me before they give up and do something else.

I propose if possible adding a ingame lobby, where players can see who is waiting to join a game within their region and or the ability to play skirmish mode until the server fills up in order to play larger maps.

That and once a player has a good experience with PR, they will return. Mumble improves this experience and should be integrated within the mod to be mandatory.
