I'd say we should play (more) TDM at the new server, specially with the squad thing and training. :)

I think most of you don't want TDM simply because you suck at it, and that my friends, is YOUR problem, become better at it, deal with it. You wanna become better (don't answer NO cuz you would be lying), then go play TDM, it works, deep down you know that it does. Stop denying, and play!!!!!!:P

TDM is cool and it learns pickup placement and knowing map it does better than TAM.

Finally..someone agrees with me, you see people, this is the truth.
Sure there are no pickups in TAM, but being good at TDM makes you much better when playing tam. It lets you deal with spam, low life, map knowledge..and lots and lots more.

Quote for truth! :rockon: Besides, we already have 2 (...or maybe 3? :P) TAM servers.

I think Zz should make the final choice.
I personely think it should be a TAM/TDM server.
But cant you setup the server one way and the change it at a later date.
Abit like "Suck it and see".


P.S.I have not voted!

Personally I don't care much about TAM. The wait time between games is too long. There's only one possibility to reenter after having been killed and that is for someone to resurrect you. But for that to happen frequently, adrenaline should build up much faster than it actually does.

I like freezetag a whole lot better in that respect. It's more fun. So how about a Freezetag/TDM server? (In that order) And then of course not a 4 vs 4 server or whatnot. We pay for a commercial 6 vs 6 server so that is what we should run.

I'm not a CTF player myself. Judging from the members' pages most TCP players aren't. As for the maps, IF this server is going to be training server I would suggest using the Clanbase map list:

TDM:

* DM-AkBal2k4
* DM-Antalus
* DM-Asbestos
* DM-CBP2-Torkenstein
* DM-Corrugation
* DM-Deck17
* DM-DE-Grendelkeep
* DM-DE-Grendelkeep-RE
* DM-DE-Osiris2
* DM-Goliath
* DM-Goose2k4
* DM-Rankin
* DM-Tempest4
* DM-Flux2

Freon:

* DM-AkBal2k4
* DM-Antalus
* DM-Campgrounds2004-G1E
* DM-CBP2-Achilles
* DM-Corrugation
* DM-DE-Grendelkeep
* DM-Goliath
* DM-Goose2k4
* DM-Rankin
* DM-Under_LE

And then of course we would have to set up the server according to clanbase rules.

Tdm rules:

http://www.clanbase.com/rules.php?lid=1434

Freon rules:

http://www.clanbase.com/rules.php?lid=3010#chap_3

So this is what a pure training server would look like (except for the 4 vs 4 rule) Opinions??

The weapon stay off rule sucks as it is lame. Real TDM has always been played with weapon stay on, only in ut2k4 this has mysteriously changed... That's one reason I wouldn't enter clanbase in the TDM section.

Other than that, TDM is my preferred choice for reasons several people already posted.

yes put weapon stay on this will allow players to actually fight instead of some idiot running around popping everyone with a assault rifle this could cause problems and people could get angry so i suggest that weapon stays on

Yes weapon stay on,

Also Zz, you can make some kind of stuff that you can choose between tam 2vs2 3vs3 4vs4 etc etc, I saw it on other servers, sure we pay for 6v6, but I suggest you make the other things selectable too.
It might be better for when we train.
:)
We need to make a good allround maplist.

Hi Cat, It looks like almost a clear decision? TDM rules.... :rockon:

Would be awesome to have a server where the gametype is votable between every possible type except ons :P
That way we could finally start the tcp bombing run league :O

Then again its up to the ppl who actually pay for it to decide what they wanna spend their money on. Maybe we could even start playing a third gametype except dm/ons :P

Well I used to support the onslaught server financially but some time ago I had a discussion with Carnage about it. He wants to keep the onslaught server online because a lot of people enjoy it so much. I do like a game of onslaught every now and then, but in my heart I will always be a (T)DM player. That's what got me hooked on the game, and no other gametype has ever stopped me from playing DM. I posted the clanbase crap to show you people what a training server actually is. It's not nearly as cool as the thing we always had going in Unreal, with all the custom maps and weird stuff. Of course weapon stay must be on :D

I like many (most actually) maps that Carnage has installed on the TAM server. Custom maps rock, and so what if we aren't training Clanbase or any other league maps. I'm in this clan for the fun, and I think it's time we got our own TDM server back, complete with custom maps & mods.

Reading the results of the poll I think it's safe to say that most of you would enjoy this also.
