Project Reality Forums

Well, tbh most people are in a squad so it doesn't really change that much. Server could have stayed afloat if it wasn't for all the balancing going on.

To be fair smart balance is usually set to 2, indeed sometimes we have had to turn it off to balance the team. We also have got a lot of clans tags setup on the autobalance to prevent them being switched with also works very well.
I agree there is usually problems when large numbers (usually a clan ) rage quit and all leave at once, unfortunately nothing can be done to prevent that, some people just need to win all the time and will leave if they don't. Not pointing fingers here at all just generalising on problems which can occur.
Obviously we haven't got all the clans out there tags on the smart balance but any clan can post up on our forums and we will gladly add them, what makes their life easier makes our jobs easier.

Its nice to finally play on a server that doesn't lag when someone's on Prism.

Good to see the Merk server up! If you guys seed it more often I make sure F|H guys will join it, so we do not have to deal with the bs on other servers. I will be home late tonight, I see if it is up and will join.

And if other vets simply do the same we can make this the best server to play on!

It's allready the best server to play on thinks for your support Dutch much appreciated

Thanks for the feedback Dutch, appreciate it mate

Made a squad during briefing of 4 people, 2 of them are randoms, I mean we're on Merk - no reason not to play with randoms here, should be fine. Plan with them to take a HAT kit if possible and a logi, build a quick ambush fob with a TOW. They play along with our plans during briefing. Gave them a mark showing where we're going to build the and received an "Ok" from both. Alright good, I don't need more people for this plan.

Minute later, spawn in, they both take snipers, going "cya nerds" as they left the squad. Guess not even Merk servers are immune to autists on weekends.

Reported it a few times. as this isn't behavior i'd expect to see on Merk. Received zero response as Merk already left for today.

The couple joined the nearest free-kit squad and enjoyed their game of neo-PR.
Names were "@alpha" and "oldfag".

Thankyou for the report Alon,ill get them both on the ban list. If they want to play on MeRk again they can come to our website and explain themselves.

been a while since i played here,.. do you guys have Map votes or admins sets them !?

keep up the good work, since you guys removed that 10 player slot shit this server is better than it was before....

The planets aligned causing myself to be awake when MeRk was seeded. It was pretty fun, minus the 300 ping. Overally seemed to be well balanced.

My only criticism is once the server goes from seeding to being popped it seems that all the admins play together on the same team. I'll give you credit. Admins are fast on responding to reports, but I feel things may have been missed due to not being on our team in some instances.

TL R good games, maybe need admins from other clans?

Merk play together as a clan. we balance the teams by putting other clans on the opposite team and adjust as needed.
most trusted clans have members who are "Lite Admins" whom might not have their admin privileges activated when Merk admins are online but are very much active in reporting rule breakers and communicate to us via teamspeak when needed. so essentially we have admins on both teams, just lite admins do not show up when typing !admins.

thank you for your feedback

we do not currently do map votes. instead we prefer to ask the players for next map suggestions and our members pick what they believe to be the best map suggested.
we also try not to "double nation" meaning having 2 Mec maps in a row, 2 USMC maps in a row for example Muttrah (USMC - MEC) to Khami (USMC - MEC) is extremely unlikely to happen.

Have a great fun last night in your server keep it up Guys

While I enjoy playing on your server a lot lads, sometimes I feel as though you need to be a bit more thoughtful of the balance. You cannot give the more capable team better equipment as well, it just doesn't work. Especially after we won Bijar Skirmish somewhat convincingly as MEC, setting the Russian favoured Iron Ridge Inf as nextmap - instead of one that's favouring OpFor a bit - led to this happening:

Wasn't that unbalanced of a match though. Opfor capped our first flag twice and we had to fight at least half their team to cap it back. We only won because of a little more coordination than them. If some squads including mine didn't fall back to farmhouse on time we would have lost the game by bleeding. Opfor merely miscalculated by thinking they can cap and hold that flag. KD ratios were awful for Opfor yes but that's what you get when scopes are OP.

agree with sandepp, 4dAC was OP but the match was intense and almost lost on our side.

All I can say to that guys is that we didn't have the admin team on at that time. After the crash I bounced and only 1 or 2 admins were left. We are all on par when it comes to keeping the server enjoyable for all, but not all of us are on point when it comes to balance, as it takes experience and knowledge to balance correctly.

just had one of the best rounds in a long time on your server, playing sahel insurgency for the first time, well balanced we lost by seconds.

Good couple rounds tonight bois, nice to see it seeded
