MOB UO Server Changes, Frontline 24/7 BAS and German Front Maps in Rotation Options

I really think COD UO TDM is a dead end. TDM had traditionally attracted the kids who were filled with the run and gun blood lust. BA has held its own because of the strategy and teamwork involved. I hate to sound like an old geezer here, but my experience with the kids I've played with is they are always the first to jump on a new game or platform. TDM did well when those kids were hunting for new UO servers. As that segment of the gaming community has now gone elsewhere it will only get harder and harder to create a popular run and gun server, IMHO.

I like Undead's idea of trying something else with GFM besides TDM.

I'm kinda partial to BAS, DOM, CNQ and S&D in that order. Never liked DM or TDM, but thats just me.

I think you hit the nail right on the head. My guess would be that much of the remaining pool of loyal COD:UO players is probably over the age of 30...people who don't go out and buy every new game that comes around.

nice nice, thanks.

Zaktlee! I believe you guys nailed it.

The unique thing about GFM is that it is TDM that is impossible to run and gun making GFM TDM really unique. It is a mod that is one shot one kill or one mistake one kill. No second chances.

I agree that UO TDM is as dead as the dried up fly on my windowsill. GFM on something else? Sure, whatever, I ain't sitting on the server, I've been there, and done that... My question is who do you think you are going to get in there? No one new is coming into the servers, and it isn't like there isn't already 1800 empty servers out there.

I think each of us should consider if we REALLY are interested in playing something other than BARB, TUCHOLA, or Stocks.

I vote let it die.

[CreepingDeath]

I know I've heard that line before, but I can't remember the name of the movie. Oh merciful Cero(Although last night/this morning begs to differ), would you be kind enough to enlighten a humble stack of pancakes?

i really liked it in the frontline map and i played another ba map (the hill?) that had a heavy and was beaten to death by ta 6paks son , i liked that map too. id really hate to see it go-i really dont think enough people played it.i recieved emails from guys from other clans who played it and were willing to do a match ,seems a waste of steel and omms hard work.

I know I haven't been around much lately, but I've noticed both a bunch of new people and some folks that haven't been around for a long time playing on the Stock Maps this week. We had at least two nights in a row where Stock maps was really rocking. Reminded me of the good old days.

I really like GFM TDM. I'm eager to play more.

Speaking from TDM's viewpoint, "The rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated." (Mark Twain).

Do you know that:

The Modern Weapons Custom Maps server gets appx 2,000 players per week? I process the stats by guid, so it doesn't matter if players change their game-name, the server gets 2,000 unique players per week.

The #1 ranked coduo server in the world is a BAS server (GITs Kill or Be Killed), the #2 is a TDM server (Penguins Playing Foy server).

Of the top 10 coduo servers in the world, the breakdown is -
5- BAS
3- TDM
2- CTF

Of all coduo servers worldwide (2028), here is the ranking of the {MOB} servers (ranked by average number of players per month):

48th - Modern Weapons Custom Maps (TDM server)
78th - {MOB} Tuchola Forrest BAS 24x7
104th - {MOB} Barbarossa BAS 24x7
249th - {MOB} Stock Maps BAS
409th - {MOB} Frontline BAS
435th - {MOB} German Front (TDM server)

Frag on!

I hope this doesn't come out wrong.

The run and gun prototype is currently COD 2.

I usually don't play COD UO to run and gun. Just Base Assault. However I do enjoy the Cassino map.

And as you know, COD UO BAS will live indefinately until some genius decides to put base assault into COD 3 or 4.

COD UO BAS is the perfect game. And until a suitable replacemtnt is found it will thrive.

Lets keep the run and gun on COD 2.
