The Project Reality Teamwork Alliance is a large, friendly community with a focus on teamwork oriented games. We were founded on 5th October 2010 and our primary game is Project Reality. We have grown from a small group of around 15 people into a community which has had thousands of members pass through its hallways.

PRTA consists of multiple units from all over the world and is led by a management team which provide the services and back end support needed to host the servers and website. We have a mapper team, event team, media team, admin team and others which work together to make PRTA the most active Project Reality community.

Our TeamSpeak server and Forum have brought people together from all over the globe. We are a very friendly community where all players, old and new, are welcome. As a result, PRTA has always been massively diverse. The community is composed of a wide range of units: from milsim clans to loose groups of friends, to individuals who want to benefit from being a part of the larger group. Over the years we have had language- or country-specific units. Our contributors and management staff are volunteers from throughout this community and we have always strove for equal representation from among our units.

Hey Transpilot, do you have a particular time this occured? We can check our own server logs and history and see if there are any spikes in network or system resource use at that moment.

Any help is very appreciated :)

Couple of days ago me and the boys were playing Nuijamaa on PRTA.

CMEN were spamming during briefing. They were spamming prior 2 minutes in-game and time after.

Filamu jumped in and threatened to kick them(but didn't do that), meanwhile one of our boys left the squad and another squad member asked him to comeback in local and got instantly kicked for one single phrase.

It kinda felt over the top.

Why do "seeders" have the ability to use full admin commands

Re: PRTA Feedback thread

They don't have the same powers as full admins and they mustn't use them when the server is full or with active admins.

You should tell the seeders that they need to lay off the commands when admins are online.

Hitreg is becoming more and more of an issue.
Happens to 50% of the bullets.

usual cause is the network delays/lost from client to server, its impossible to check on the server side without having ingame monitor which shows current stats to server.

Passing along some feedback from a friend who played PR for the first time after I introduced him to it. He tried to find squads that seemed to work together but it seemed like they were all locked. He felt that the game was interesting but was not sold on the unique VOIP aspect.

Perhaps you may want to review rules around locking squads as it may alienate players who want to learn from more experienced players.

That would be nice - but there's a lot of 'clan-based' squads around. I've started playing not so long time ago and yep - finding a helpful squad, or at least squad leader that I could learn from on PRTA was a bit harder, yet possible ofc.

Balance on this server is consistently shocking.

When I join at round start, I can almost always tell which team will stomp just looking at the players. Why can't the admin do the same, and sort it before there's 1-3 rounds of outcaps?
I've brought this up with many admins, but nothing ever seems to change.

Edit: Getting shit on for the third round in a row. Serious fun.

Don't forget when they do eventually "balance" it, by switching basically anyone good from the winning team, and all of the sudden next round is a stomp but for the opposite team. Like Liam said, most PR players that know the people, and maps can look at a team list of whos on it, and the map to decide if it will be even or a stomp. With the increased skill discrepancy of PR players, balancing has to be a higher priority and actually done properly.

Any of those 'admins' have actual admin rights?
No actions after two reports about asset stealing.

Everyone except for Sultan. Kovanaama and Smek should take action. I will tell them to pay more attension to the reports.

There is quite the risk of me being AFK when server is yet to be fully seeded so I apologize if !reports fell on deaf ears.

Regarding balance:

People mostly play across clans and you can often see lots of different good players jumping between assets and between teams sometimes as they want to play according to their preference. I do not see a problem with this especially with players who played the game for quite some time but in terms of balance it does not help it at all.

I try to balance as much as I can but a lot of people just change back or do w/e they like anyways so I have to resort to some kind of politics where I convince people or bigger entourages to balance but then I need a carrot of some sort. I think the attitude is generally in the community itself, people unwilling to play for balanced matches, they just dont care about it. If I succeed in convincing them, half of them or all are leaving after the game anyways, so the question is if the server roster changes over 2-3 games with different skilled people, how do we keep teams balanced without stepping on any toes?

The go-to balancing is usually switching the "best" squad for the "worst" squad on each team, the "best" squad often being an asset squad, so if next map is asset map the team that received the asset players might stomp from that side instead. HITREG CARRY

Switching best inf squad against worst inf squad and then running a 2K forest map might yield a better balance.

Yes and if possible, without making that many switcheroos is to do a militia map if for example we would have an apc squad on the blufor side racking up 25-40 kills in the first 20 min :roll:
