[Hell's Commandos] PRMM AAS 0.25 Server
IP: 63.209.36.23:16567

Hey everyone. As this is my first post here I should probably introduce myself. I'm a founding member of Hell's Commandos, a long time gamer, a professional software engineer, real life firearms enthusiast (specifically AR15s, which I enjoy building and shooting), have run several servers, created games and been involved with many clans (founded and ran a successful mechwarrior 4 clan, played in a Q3TF clan among others). [HC] is a group of personal friends and members of clans past that play together to promote teamwork and fun. We are all very big fans of PRMM and have been playing it for several months now.

Anyway, as the title suggests, we would like to hold a stress test on our server. We had a very successful server launch last week and have been maxing out 32/32 fairly regularly. We recently upped the server limit to 50 players and would like to see how things hold up.

Therefore, tonight, 3/7/2006, at 6pm PST (9pm EST) we will be holding a server stress test. We are inviting members of the PRMM community to join the server today to try and get all 50 slots filled up and to see how playable the game is with that many players on. Our website is still being worked on (http://www.hellscommandos.com) as we never expected our server to become as popular and full as it has over the past few days.

The server is running AAS, has a longer than usual spawn time and a hand selected and configured maplist which all combine to complement PRMM.

I'd also like to thank the developers here for making this great mod and I look forward to the opportunity to play with more people from the PRMM community!

The quality of the following of this mod never ceases to amaze me and is in and of itself the biggest compliment to the developers of this mod.

Thanks for your server; I've played in it personally and it has a great ping from where I am (washington DC). I hope you keep it up and maintain it for the mod as long as you can.

Thank you!

I will try to make the stress test as it is a work week, my comittment to playing can be spotty at best, at any rate, thanks and have fun!

We are very happy with the pings and overall server performance we've been getting with 32/32 players from all over the US. Players from [HC] live in NJ, NY, MI, WI, and NV and all of us, regardless of where we are in the US, have been getting pings that seem to average in the 50ms range.

I'd also like to add that the [HC] server (which is listed in the in-game server list) is a completely public server and runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. We are running a special stress test tonight, but otherwise the server is always available.

I'm actually posting this from work right now so I won't be on for a few more hours either

but I do see that some people have already joined the server. There's no need to wait until 6pm PST/9pm EST if anyone feels like playing right now.

Thanks for playing with us and I hope to see you in game soon!
