ATDM server info

Like some of you, I notice that there is no ATDM servers for Euro players (non that compare to the 0 aug ones anyway).

This is in no way some kind of we must fight 0 augs message etc etc. Just simply an opportunity for anyone interested in augs to discuss and organise a 24/7 ATDM Euro server + general augged chat.

If anyone is interested in the discussion or has any ideas / offers of help / etc, please visit the forum address attached and get involved.

It is in no way a clan, and if you are not interested in Augs or the development of this server, please dont visit just to chat!

Thanks.

Really? Not seen it myself, but u might be right.
Still, another community owned server is worth a shot.

Lol it would appear that 0 Aug players are willing to pay for servers while Aug players aren't? Although [A] hosts.. 5?.. Aug servers, just not ATDM

Yeah the [A] servers are very good, and all credit to you on that. Im no pro at ATDM, its just that I find it as a challenge and good gameplay, therefore if I wana play it, a server with decent ping would help.

The point of the forum is to find, hosters, etc etc.
I personally will be partially backing the financial side.

Yes, sounds good if you can get enough people to try - It has been tried in the past however, not to long ago infact people went around posting something like this on every forum, asking for donations. Don't think they got any though. JimaB (RTKM server) hosts his 0Aug server on his own, which costs him quite a bit I think.

I dont expect anything to happen right away, but if we can even get augged players communicating through a method other than clan rivalry then we stand more of a chance of success.

As stated, the financial aspect can be sorted if interest is gained.

That is so true, 0 auggers are willing to pay to get quality servers so they can enjoy playing with good ping which is probably why 0 augs is so popular. If these auggers wernt such cheapskates they would buy a good server to play on instead of always bitching about not having any aug or ATDM servers.

I knew someone would come here and start flamin the issue up!

Who (other than you) is bitching?

This is a discussion about the augged community getting together, not a discussion about the great success of 0 augs! Which no-one here is doubting or has a problem with?

Please do not bother us with childish arguments, if u have anything constructive to say then do so! Otherwise, go make your own topic.

Can the mods please watch out for this kinda stuff?

Lol atleast I put a "?" at the end of my post, meaning it was open to suggestion! :D

Yeah this won't turn into an aug vs 0 aug topic lol D/W, But try places like [T] and [EL] and all that for augs.

Yes, B2S server is augs. It was full last afternoon too.

RTK server probably costs £48.60 for 3 months, or slightly more on a monthly basis. I know this coz I have the same size server from the same company.

Every time I turned the server to ATDM it just lay empty.

If it's not possible to get donations in then I won't be changing anything on the FTF server. I paid for it - I wanna play on it, and I play 0-Augs.

Hope ppl understand that. I did say I'd host an augged server but it's just wasting my money and my mates are not auggers.

Good luck with the idea, if you need any forum help jus giz an email (I never notice when I get new PM's on this forum)

Your server starts the game with the correct 2000 skill points, yet the player already has maximum skills!

The point is to be able to streak and upgrade?

Me and Alex can offer a server for 30€ / 12 slots (33€ / 14 slots, 36€ / 16 slots). Debranded (which means it doesn't require that you use a name like "[CLAN] : powered by GamesMajor.co.uk"), excellent quality, Nephthys and all tweaks, + mods/mutators you want.

Not every player is insane and has some extra money to spend on just buyng a server to a game that's almost dead... :roll:

Why do you play this nearly dead game if it's nearly dead? Surely it will just suddenly DIE? "Not every player is insane" - You don't want to spend money on buying a server but you're happy to take advantage of all the ones that are payed for lol.

Well if we compare Deus Ex to a game like Fear or CS:S it would be pretty much dead in the eyes of the players who play these other games. And I call anyone who pays for a DX server insane because it's just funny that they do anything for a game :lol: Really, I don't see how I am taking any advantage on playng on a server that someone has donated for people to play on. I'm sure of that the guy hosting the server is happy when people actually play on it.

I mean, you are happy to play the game enough, make a clan in it, but never pay anything towards it - If you think it's practically dead why don't you play something else?

I don't have enough money to buy fucking game servers. And if I would have the money, I still would never waste it to buy some bloody servers. It's just waste of money in my opinion. DX is dead if you compare it to other popular games. Still there's enough people to get a good game now and then. I'd play some new good games like Unreal 3 if my computer could run it.

I prefer the "dead" game as you call it. I honestly believe that CS:S is a boring piece of shit, not to mention the attitude of its typical players. UT3 is questionnable successor of the series, because good graphics don't mean a priori that the game is better.

I keep borrowing these other games off my mates, tbh, Im not keen on any of them. They look good, but the multiplayer scene is somehow just not the same.

And CS.S is crap.

You don't see how people would pay to get a server hosted for any game, do you? Yet you prefer to play CS:S and Fear? See, people also pay good money to get servers hosted on those two games as well, or didn't you know that? You think the servers are just free, do you?

I don't see why there is plenty of 0-Aug servers myself and not many Aug servers. I guess all the Auggers can't afford the servers? Who knows. Anyways, I might try out B2S' server later. And I like [A]'s servers too.

And who are you guys to complain? Live in fucking Australia/New Zealand, then you have the right to complain! I'm on a fucking ownt DSL connection and still can get up to 500 ping. Sure, doesn't feel like much because of my laptop/connection but you DO notice getting fucking disconnected all the damn time...

As for my opinion on Counter-Strike. I don't mind it, but it's not as challenging at Deus Ex, IMO. I also think the community are a bunch of low-life wankers who can go screw themselves. But that's just my opinion.

Deus Ex could die today or it could die tomorrow, you never know. But until it does, enjoy every fucking minute you get on it. As once it does die, you won't be seeing it again, will you?

This game has been dead for years in global terms.

However, a small group have developed an exceptionally active community, which is now much more than about the actual game. [A], {B2S}, {B} through to the clans of {17}, {C}, etc. All have a place in the community, each and every new clan is a bonus.

So this game will carry on in the forums and im sure there will always be a couple servers up to play on. Maybe once/if DX3 kicks in then the community will transfer to that.

Sike m8, I know what u mean, as from an augged point of view the game is dead. The whole point of the augged community forum is to check how many auggers are left. If there is enough of us, maybe with the help of others we can get a server and generate some interest in the gametype.

If not, then we will have enjoy the endless pleasure of the box gun and building a staircase.

Yeah, that's a problem with ATDM, people don't like playing one versus one, so the only way to really get some games going with several people is by just organizing it on msn. Once there's 3 or 4 players in the server, and there are a few people browsing the serverlist, the server will get filled pretty quickly though.

The idea of having an augged server is nice though, and I support it, but I can't really help with the money issue.

As for now, thanks for hosting a server, survive. :)

I don't play CS:S and Fear only sometimes. I never said that "those servers are free" and I know people pay alot of money to get their servers hosted. But in those games the paid servers do not lay empty most of the time.

You'd be surprised, Sike. There's much more money being wasted in those games, just check how many empty servers there are in the list. (and it's not that every non-empty server is totally full either.)
