Mr.Scruff

Bargod
It's right there on the front page, lol! 67.106.77.244:28960

Also, it's listed as Custom Weapons, Custom Maps, I believe.
Mr.Scruff
thats why i was confused cuz it doesnt say {MOB}. why not?
steel
It doesn't say {MOB} yet for probably several reasons. One of which is that I advised that the way I got the server popular after I started it was that I named the server for exactly what it has, and I never ever changed the name from "Modern Weapons, Custom Maps."

I mean, it's a fact that an empty server is no fun to anyone. When I started this server, it was the very first coduo server with modern weapons and custom maps together. It's a very difficult thing to do, cause mods and custom maps in the same server typically do not play well together. I attracted players in the beginning because of the novelty. But now, there are probably nearly a dozen servers doing the same thing, some even using my modern weapons mod and many even run the same maps because MWCM proves that those maps run with mods.

MWCM is still full nearly 24 x7 because everyone knows it, the name has never changed. The regulars always know right where to go, Modern Weapons, Custom Maps. Simple, sweet, says what it is.

If/when {MOB} decides to change the name, so be it. But for now, I applaud the idea of going slowly with changes on that server. Keep gamers coming back, it's more fun for everyone that the server always has someone to shoot at, lol.

Steel, I would strongly advocate that the name of the server is not to be changed. Little moves like that make or break a server. We've added our stamp to the server with in-game messages, if we change the external name, I'm convinced it will be the first step off a steep downward slope.

i agree,why fix something,if its not broke.

I found my way onto the server yesterday by mistake. I hopped in and a lot of people were saying hi to me... thought it was wierd. Then I realized there was a small www.moblcan.com logo on the bottom, lol. That's when I knew I was on the new modern weapon server.

It is really fun, but tough. The sprint speed goes 4 times longer so there are people just running all over the place. I started out with an M-16, I forget the clip amount but it's huge and it's huge for a reason. I had a hard time taking down a stationary target from behind at 5 yards, half a clip or so. Later I tried a different weapon and it seemed to take people down with one or two shots... so I guess it's just getting used to what's available. There were also mad explosions everywhere. I must've joined in late when everyone already had satchels and 4 nades when they spawn. biggrin.gif It definately looked like a warzone with dirt, mud, body parts, everything flying everywhere. Looking forward to a revisit in the near future and seeing that nobody plays Cassino anymore, this will probably be the server I head to. Just need to get used to it, lol.

I havent tried this server yet, but plan to later today. I just never really cared for Modern Weapons servers. Just didnt seem right to have modern weapons in a WW2 based game.

Pez, You should really give Barb a couple more tries if your looking for a map to try out. I didnt get the hang of it at the begining either, but was getting bored of Cassino so stuck to it. Now, I just love that map. TF is a little too big for my taste, but Barb is just right. You should try it more.

I've played Barb a bunch in the past... I do like the map. What I'm not really into are the long waits to get into action, the spawn raping, and the "me-me" attitude a lot of players have. I will try again, see if it's any better.

"What I'm not really into are the long waits to get into action, the spawn raping, "

When you get spawn raped your in the action immediately.

Yea, tell me about it.

But it is really hard to get to the spawn area and then stay there. Its fun trying to get to that position, and then really fun killing like 6 germans with one shell from the p4 or stug, lol.

OMG...I love the modern weapons server, especially when you have a solid team. It's great to relieve stress and just go crazy with your favorite weapons. Just throw nades and smoke when your getting spawned killed. It's the easiest way to get out. The cudadad is a wicked player, although last night he crashed the cudakids computer....again.

I think the maps I've played on there so far might be too small for that much fire power. Also, can the cvar for parachuting be turned off? I noticed some people just sit in corners and shoot the people flying down to get a quick 10+ kills when the map starts. Complete chaos... good thing. I don't think I'm averaging 30 seconds on each life. I think an issue is that most custom maps don't have good spawn points that change so both teams are just shelling, nading, shooting, etc into each spawn and then you have 2-3 guys on each team with 60 kills in 5-10 minutes while everyone else is 3-35. biggrin.gif

The server is what it is, F**KIN crazy. I know many get annoyed at the spawn raping and the killing of the parachuters but war really does suck. When I get spawn raped, it just makes me want to do to those who have done it to me. Its not a WWII type game. It is made for insane people like myself and others to run around with high powered rifles and gun people down indescriminantly. I find it lots of fun. Is there something wrong with me?
steel
LOL, not a thing Wolfcastle! The MWCM server always was intended to be a fast-action, high-adrenaline, run & gun madhouse, nothing more, nothing less.

As far as putting on bigger maps, oh man, I tried that (Wolfcastle no doubt knows how many times I tried this). The regulars don't want big maps with snipery places, they want medium-smallish maps with utter chaos.

BTW, in the beginning, I had the MAC11 in the weapons mix and had artillery turned on for everyone as soon as they came into a map. Now, that was insanely sick!! After about 45 minutes, our heads would be spinning from the incessant artillery. LOL!!!! (Wolfcastle, you've been playing on MWCM a long time, do you remember this? Har!)

Frag on!!
Rainier_Wolfcastle
Yes I do remember that. It was so insane that I could only play about 2 maps then take a break for an hour. When the MAC-11 was in play, that was the weapon of choice. The AK47 and M4 were used for the medium to far shots. Not much sniping going on. It was so insane to have a room full of people with MAC's chasing each other around. Somtimes after playinging I really needed a cigarette.
