ok, i know there many people that would like to play on old barbarossa, but since there no on there they won't wait for hours on end...

1. tuchola should be removed from classic barbarossa, it does not help as someone said in a diffrent post somewhere.
2. us people that wanna play there should organize and stuff... I go to MW Bas, and see many people there that were masters of the old barb, and yet they take little incentive to go there...
3. someone said that the MW Bas is so succesful cause of the drag, that brings many new people (aka noobies)there, but for the most part they suck, and even the drag can't help them (hehehe).
4. I think some are confused and think that MW Bas is like the cod4: MW... and they think they got a new game or something...

SO IF YOU WANNA PLAY ON CLASSIC BARB, CAUSE U LIKE IT, THEN POST HERE SO THAT WE KNOW WHO'S INTERESTED SO WE CAN ORGANIZE A GAME ONCE IN A WHILE... THANKS!

*Add my xfire: olafshruber - so if there a game on old barbarossa going and u not there u can be informed laugh.gif

What about the scrim Pain? Will you play?

Kleerance
I'll play old Barb if there's people there. If I wanna play classic weapons I go to CUF leage, RB or BBD servers. However I don't play that much so I don't take the time to be the first one on the server to see what happens. It could be a reaaaaally long wait. But big big credits to the people who does it. smile.gif
landser
Most of all the old barb an tuc players are all spread out on different classic weapons servers i see at least 2 or 3 on any base server i go to.But you if set a time to meet on barb i will jump on an see what happens.I will sit in tuc an it takes about half hour,45 mins an you can get a 5 on 5 or better.

We should handle this as much as we can on x-fire.

I'll add anyone interested, feel free to add me. I'm almost always up for a barb match!

And I agree, the addition of tuchola only splits the players. I think we should stop the rotation on Barbarossa because it did'nt seem to help?

Now just combining the 2 maps and not still having a 24/7 tuchola map would be something I would entertain but I'm not a huge fan of the forest so I may be a little biased wink.gif

Shred and I got Barb kicking a little last night, we had between 10 and 12 people on for about 2 hours.
Props to Shred for joining in.... (And to the rest of the crew who came over and helped!)

I think if we just can get 4 people on to start it up the rest will show up. If we can start making this happen on a regular basis the server will be back in no time.

We had a few people besides MOB and Regs show up in no time at all. It just takes the effort of a few to get this to happen!

P.S. We also got the COD2 TDM server juming a little earlier, just about 10 or 12 people but nice to see as well. Thanks to Peppar,Shred and Slayer for getting this going!

Someone mentioned in another post sharing Xfire accounts for those who'd like to play Old Barb so we can try and contact each other if we want to fire it up. I thought that was a good idea? Anyone else interested? we could start a thread on it.

BTW, for those that don't know, Xfire is a FREE program that is basically like an Instant Messanger program, excpet specifically for gamers. It shows if your friends are online, and what game, if any, they are currently playing.

MOD,

Do you have X-fire? if you do add it to your avatar on the side. So I can add you.

Yeah, I do, but I'm not at my regular computer this week. I'll post my details Saturday or Sunday.

I'm fairly new to it. It'd be good to get more people using it to try and help kickstart our slower servers.
Blitz
Steel has removed the Forest from the Barb map (Many thanks to Steel) so hopefully this will help get people looking for it with only 2 or 3 people on.
majorhavoc
I don't use Xfire, but I'll keep an eye out on the server when I get time to play at night. Hope to see you regulars there...I'll also rustle up the other MFD guys if I can.

Barb was rocking again tonight!!! (Thursday)
I think there were 23 or 24 people on for a while and some nice 10 v 10 matches!

If you start it they will come!

A couple of weeks of doing this on a regular basis and all of the old players will come out of the woodwork and start to search for the server, my hope is that it's on a lot of peoples favorites and that if they see it active they will hop on.

I noticed a few names I had not seen in a while, and heard some nice comments from the players that were there.

Yep. Good battles. I was bummed I had to bail after two rounds but still had fun.

Lots of the old regulars. I'll be checking on it as always when I get the time to play...

What the heck!!!?? What time was that? I spent over one and half hour on old Barb server wasteing my time and waiting for other players... sleep.gif dry.gif angry.gif cussing.gif Only 3 guys showed up: 1 was kicked by PB right after we started match and other 2 connected and then disconnected. angry2.gif That was a real waste of time, so I reluctantly moved to MWBAS server. That moment I really thought, there´s no sense in this anymore. sad.gif

That's why Xfire is a good idea. It's great when a server gets rocking, then people come in, but getting it kickstarted is the hard part, and where Xfire would help. After all, I bet for every time Barb has been rocking in the last 3 months, there has been 50 times 1-2 people tried to get it going, and failed.

Really people, download Xfire and post your ID. It's free. Keep it running only when you're in the mood to play Barb. It *could* work. smile.gif

It was in the neighborhood of 9 PM EDT that I got on with Blitz and it was just the two of us...then the floodgates opened very quickly after that. I'll be back tonight around that time with IPFreely in tow.

I use a Mac, so XFire is out for me, but I think it's an excellent idea for you PCers.

Sounds like a plug-in available that'd let you have it running for setting up a game. We'd only need it to work as a paging system anyway.

I'll see if I can get it to work. Thanks for pointing it out.

This may also help,

I logged onto vent and hung out in the lobby and added (in classic Barb) in the comments section of my name.
That way as people came in they asked "are you in old barb" to which I would say hell yes we have 7 people and need some more!

I also asked people to jump on as they entered vent.

The only issue is that I probably clogged the Lobby. (If anyone in MOB has any objections let me know and I'll move to the Barb channel.)
I also had a hit or 2 on X-fire.

Wish you could have made it Blinky, I think we were only 2 or 3 people away from full. (or at least needing a password)

P.S. Major Havoc,
After you ran me down in the stolen German troop transport, I started chasing you around with a zook. Heard you beeping your horn to pick up people (opponents) to which they stopped to climb aboard.
I then watched as you ran them down!!!
I laughed so hard I forgot to shot at you. w00t2.gif
That made my night, very funny stuff!

That's one of my favorite things to do. IPFreely and I have a competition to see how many people we can beep at then run over in a round...I'm winning wink.gif

PS. I got that XBlaze extension to work with Adium. If any Mac-heads need the file let me know. It was tough to track down, but I found it. I'll be happy to send it along.

For the record, my XFire is mfdmajorhavoc

yay Barb! wub.gif i dont mind hitting up the server empty. have done it a few times in tuchola and wound up with a few decent matches.

usually a good idea to bump up a "join barb!!11!1!" post on the forums just before heading in. it does help.
Blitz
MOD got it kicking tonight (Saturday) we had 2 full matches with at least 10 per side.
Great job of rallying the troops MOD!

It's still a long way from being the go to server it was, but it'll only keep getting better if we keep firing it up!

Yup Good Old Barbarossa where the real FUN is at 24/7

Just want to keep bumping this thread so all the old regular Barbarossa players see it and come back in. We've had three or four nights in a row of good battles.

Sunday night was very well attended. We had at least 20-22 players for much of the evening (say from 8-10 PM EDT).

The good thing is that it's mostly the skilled regulars who make for a really intense battle of wits and skill. In fact, at one point, IPFreely, 6FootUnder and myself (playing as Germs) were running around like chickens with our heads cut off trying to keep those dirty Commies from setting bases and stealing our precious tanks!

Mess
Yeah - Great Game last night!



We dirty commies squeezed out a win when we diffused our R1 just as your G2 went up!



Always a pleasure playing you guys! Maybe we should make it a regular event every Sunday?

Cpt.Canuck
Had a great time, until my internet inexplicably cut out again. cussing.gif

It was nice to see some of the old regs back in the server!
