Cut Down The HC Servers In Experimental

[dusty_nuttles 130]

Regarding experimental servers,

 

All the 3PP servers are usually full. Yet, many HC servers have hardly anyone in them. Maybe its a good idea to replace them with 3PP. I'm sure more people would play them if they cut the HC experimental servers in half. Just a thought.

[enforcer1975 1111]

Get used to 1P and hardcore?

[Chawktah 43]

I suppose normal mode is better for testing the mechanics.. Nah, fudge 3pp!

[King_Rocket 9]

Don't replace them with 3PP but do reduce the numbers of 1pp hardcore servers slightly to force the people onto populated servers. One server in each experimental location would seem to be enough.

 

Maybe if the demand is there enable a 2nd server for Friday evenings and the weekend.

 

At the moment the experimental Hardcore 1PP servers are so underpopulated it's sad.

[Revocane 38]

No, if anything cut down the number of standard servers and force more people to play hardcore.

or just remove 'normal' servers all together... that would be my desire.

DON'T FORCE PEOPLE HOW TO PLAY!! is what a 3p player once said in a discussion about 1p and 3p regarding his beloved hiding behind a wall playstyle...

Idiot, I never said force 3PP people to play 1PP.

 

The idea was to reduce the number of 1PP servers so they are populated by more than 2 people at a time, ie force everyone onto the same server not spread out all over the place.

[Hetstaine 10852]

I would imagine both styles need testing. Most times i have been on the 1pp is full and i have to suck it up and go 3pp..more 1pp please :)

No.  There are plenty of people who don't like exploit view.

3pv is good for nothing but exploiting game breaking mechanics and cheating by peeking around and over cover.

It's neither an exploit not cheating, by definition.

[Hethwill_Khan 233]

The new FL ones were pretty much empty, true that, but the UK and US ones were full. DE and SE ones have usually over half the numbers. Can't remember the new EU and AU ones.

 

Entire group barely plays 3pp anymore. They reckon give up the advantage to cheatsight so to deny it to others as well. And the combat situations are way more intense. Plus the encounters have a unique flavour, a "something" that 3pp misses.

[deebz1234 243]

I see little to no one on the HC servers.

 

while I will applaud the amount of EXP servers now, (seems the regular patch is old school these days, may as well make em all EXP...i mean it is early testing alpha, there shouldnt even be the distinction...)

 

but the HC are always empty 6-10est ... so useless.

 

if they had 1-3 HC servers at least you stand a chance of having some population

[Caboose187 (DayZ) 3036]

But but but.... think of the server hoppers....

[DeatHTaX 1217]

Well...technically in 3pp you can see things your character normally wouldn't be able to see, I'd consider that an exploit, but I really don't wanna open that can of worms on this thread lol

Ah ok understood it wrong but you can't stop people from hosting servers unless BIS has a policy where hosters can only have x amount of servers online.

[blacklabel79 949]

everytime you join a 3pp server think about dean laughing at you calling you a pussy.

[PhillyT 554]

I would  steal everything Dean owned and make him hit a gaspump until he died.  Dean calling anyone out is quite a laugh.

 

But I do so love the l33t 1PP and their staunch refusal to accept their extreme minority status.  But they are the hardest of hardcorers, hiding in their little world of supposed superiority.

I'll just leave this here.

[Mdogg2005 447]

Since this thread has devolved into a 3PP vs 1PP topic....

and

and

 

I agree that the amount of servers on experimental should be reduced so that there are less servers that include more players per server, but as far as the fucking bullshit 1PP vs 3PP topic is concerned, I once again have nothing to say except "shut the fuck up."

 

Play how you want, and don't worry about how others play.  I play on 1PP only servers - do you see me bitching about 3PP exploiting?  No.  Because it doesn't affect me - and as far as those servers are concerned, it's not even exploiting since EVERYONE CAN DO IT.

 

God DAMN.

Isn't that the only difference between Hardcore and Regular?

[dusty_nuttles 130]

I'm used to it. I like HC. Thats not what I'm saying. What Im saying is many of those servers are dead space and a waste of a server.

No, if anything cut down the number of standard servers and force more people to play hardcore.

Its not working though. 3PP is chock filled and HC serves are looking like K-Mart. Tumble weeds.
