I can just imagine the conversation:
“I don’t care how many times you say it Steven, we are NOT calling our son Aaron Kevin XLVII”
“But it’s a perfect name! I am putting my foot down as the man of the household”
long stare from max’s missus
“ok, point taken Dawn”
“thank you Steve, now return to your shed where you can spend the next four nights sleeping”
Seriously, I don’t want to get into an argument about this but Ryzo, never seen them compllain about camping spawns, honestly. I fyou have then fine, and I genuinely think that most of them don’t do it. They do have Killcam on so you can check where you were killed from but FFS, I’ve been spawn killed on almost every game i’ve ever played on, it’s just the inevitability of the game, which to be fair, COD4 has tried to alleviate. Still, it’s the best server for lag free gaming I have found. If you want a really decent game you need no mre than 6 v 6 on most maps.
Max, I seriously think the fault is in the level designs, they are often too small. It is well nigh impossible to camp a spawn as it is semi random and does its best to avoid spawning you near the majority of enemy players (hence on sabotage it spawning you on the other side of downpour when all the enemy are near your bomb). Yeah, it’s annoying, but these guys have a point, they say quite clearly they don’t like swearing on their server and yet some of us swear quite blindly. I’m not sure about you but when I get hassle on our server as an admin, unless we kow the people giving it, I am likely to kick, because we pay for it. Same applies to them and their server. I think the attitude that we use they use, if you don’t like theior server rules, play elsewhere. I happen to enjoy their server, they are on the whole fairly decent guys, but there are one or two of them who i would class as cocks, as I’m sure they would class one or two of us as cocks, but ultimately it is their server. Apologies if this offends people, but that’s the deal. It wouldn’t be an issue if it weren’t for our server being really laggy and crap. I raised a ticet with multiplay about this (hope I’m not treading on anyones toes by doing that ) and they replied as follows:
Hello Craig,
I am sorry to say that I really dont know what more you expect us to do in this case. I have gone through all the logs and tickets that have been continually raised by you on this issue. We have moved your server to another machine more than once. We have edited your server config files for you more than once. In each instance you seem to come back and tell us you are still having ping issues. We have even had our guys join your server and play for several hours! None of this has determined any sort of fault existing with your server. We are completely unable to reproduce your issue.
Im sorry that you think we are shifting blame, but you seem determined to lay it firmly at our feet without producing any substantiating evidence that remotely backs up there being a problem, let alone where. Having gone through the support tickets, we have asked repeatedly for trace results to determine where these ‘lag’ issues are arising. If there are any, then a trace should show not only conclusive evidence of an issue, but also highlight the likely area of cause.
I have found 5 tickets in which we request trace results, of which only 2 have had a reply and both of which were inadequate. One showed no response from host on all hops, the other showed a normal trace (no issues).
Again I apologise, but unless you and the other people who are experiencing issues on your server cooperate with us and produce the trace results we have repeatedly asked for, there is nothing further we can do. We have exhausted every avenue and found nothing. The only explaination that remains is that the problem lies outside our sphere of control, i.e. it is not a problem with the server, the machine or our network.
Now, I anticipate this response will not go down well with you, however I ask you to consider the following point. It is not in our interest to provide a bad service. If you consider the amount of administrative time and effort we have poured into trying to sort out your issue, it far outstrips the cost of your server fee. If it was a fault our end, would it not make more economic sense to sort it out in an expeditious manner, thus spending the least time “fixing” issues?
