I'm switching the main OCRP server back to rp_evocity_v2d as we're rapidly declining in players since the switch. We haven't gotten the server full since which used to happen for a few hours a day. However, we'll also be working on a 'serious' OCRP server which will run V33x. Obviously, this won't be completely serious as the script in general wasn't made for serious roleplay, but the rule enforcement will be a LOT more strict and every rule will be enforced on this server.
-
I think they only reason it wasn't full was cos at like 30+ plus players RSO kicked in making it almost impossible to join. Took me over 20 tries to get in yesterday.
Serious sounds good looking forward to that
-
Tbh i only think this will get worse. Most of the admins will play on Evo33x as that map is SOOOO much better and EvoCity_v2d will only get worse. There wont be many players on any of the servers as we dont have a big enough playerbase.
We can fill one server, we cant fill 2.
Oh well, lets see how this turns out :/

We'll see. We had a lot of players who quit because of the lack of seriousness, and should this bring them back/bring new ones in, it could happen.
-
Awww, V33X is so much fun though. Do you think more people left because they didn't have the new map downloaded and just didn't want to download it or it was too laggy, or what?
-
This is bullshit... We dont need a serious server with LOLNAZI admins who think that accidentally running over someone entitles them to instaban us. Two 'Semi-Serious' would do better.
-
2 things: 1. why not make have 1 server that is serious with evo V3xx
2. Will we have our stuff on both servers?
-
Probably 5-10% of the people had horrible pc lag on the new map. You should have waited atleast a week to see if it got better once people got the new map downloaded.

1. We are.

I mean only 1 server

the whole point of this thread is to say we are NOT having only one OCRP server with it on, waffle has said we are having ocrp normal with evo v2 and a "serious" one with ev v33
-
Ever think of adding a better spawn position on the map, like, inside the bank facing the back of it?

Spawn them at the Car Dealer - move Garage to there or add second npc

serious server should be on evo2, the old OCRP serious server was on evo2, worked great.
-
When is the serious server scheduled too?

A few days.

But Rofl.. Why don't we use Rockford on the serious server? Statua said he would allow it if it was on a serious server? Or did I get that wrong?
-
Why not 5 OCRP servers one for each map so were all satisfied...
-
If anything, i would like to help code the serious rp version.

Although the map was good, the pure tourqe and power cars needed to get up that big hill between the suburbs,MTL,agricultural district and the city caused serious fails in the game along with the hill from the lake to the other big hill. Plus, I would like to add that many of the vehicles just can not cope with the roads at all. This in itself make v33x a gernarally better map as it has the best of both worlds.

Did Statua ever finish RP_rockford?
I never saw it done anywhere.

You're a troll. :)

They're not coding a new gamemode just using the same one on a different map with stricter rule enforcement.

The map was way too laggy when the server got more than 20/40 Players :/
-
I really dont see the big problem. When we changed to 33x the server did change. Back at v2d the server was one big mess. Admins could not control the server as they where useally alone and everytime we joined the server we never had time to do anything and sometimes it was like "uh going on OCRP :(".
Now at 33x the server is SO much more calm. I enjoy joining OCRP now and people have thier stores in the actual store insted of putting down a table at BP while a car kills you because people also park there.
Parking is a lot better on 33x because of the many parking slots so that is also not a problem.
The server has 34 players right now and im SURE it will hit 40/40 in around 20 minutes.
Just scrap v2d. Its old time and its a shitty map.
I dont think the players that plays on the server will go, hmm they changed map, fuck all of my stuff now wasting 20 minutes (incase thier internet is shitty) to download the map and go play.
Just give it time. Its only been up for a few days and i believe that over half of the community is enjoying the new map.

If your having lag issues just lower your graphics.

Having some second thoughts about this after talking to a few people. We'll be staying on V33x for a couple of days to see how things play out.

Glad we're staying on the new map, its much awesome-er. And I must say, I feel like I can RP better on it. Evocity used to be a mess, now its... better. Theres more running space, and less raids happen too often due to the distance between a lot of places. I like it this way. Rofl, I'd just give it a few days/weeks.

you realize that the reason weve only had so few people is cause its harder to minge so bad on the map, and there is more rp?
think about it. how many people are baned hourly on evo v2
now compare that to the TOTAL of v33x since it went up
i mean, it was CALM. i ran a passive rp shop for almost 12 (nolife) hours without someone some much as saying "fuck you", other than rogi who is GOOOOOONE :D

Thank you for keeping it on 33x!
I 100% agree with what craphead said. I've done so much more RP since we changed to 33x.
But yeah, if numbers start to decline then i fully understand going back to v2d, but with that comes a shit load of minges aswell.
-
RoflWaffle yes that guy, actually said he got in the mood for RPing on v33.
And it actually was the first time he did. We had a little JailBreakish Event.

woah woah woah. so no antiafk or bombings?

I absolutely love the idea of 2 servers, one semi-serious, and one serious. The fact is it would be soooo nice being able to play OCRP sometimes hopefully withought all the craziness and non-RP, but then again I love serious RP, and the semi-serious is fun, but sometimes I wish there would be more serious RP in it.
I also like that we are keeping v33x, because I love that map. I think it's just an upgraded version of v2d. Awesome Idea, If this does happen, It would be great having a decision whether to go have a serious time and RP, or to have less strict form of OCRP. ;)
-
This might actually work.. people will actually be rping in OCRP now..
-
All admins will go to the serious server because it's stricter so they can ban and kick more.
And if that's not it, most admins go to lite to have more roleplay. And this also means more admins. I don't like the idea of 2 OCRP servers.
-
why not just one serious server? not "ill crush your ballsack if you dont rp a sneeze" serious, but currently ocrp... you can cdm 50 people and get a kick, apparently, so its far too lax

All you need is atleast one admin in the serious server, and like two in the lite server since the lite server will most likely have more people in it. But yeah that probably does mean they need to get more admins.
-
I agree, the admins will have to be split between the servers, but it will be hard for everything to become un-balanced in a sense, because only 1 or 2 admins can sort out a server, if its not to crazy. It shouldn't be to much of a problem. I still love the idea, and can't wait.
-
Sweet! Finally a serious server! (OCRP) I have been waiting for a while, for this exact thing to happen. No more fail drivers, or fail RPers in the serious server. (Hopefully)
-
You guys are forgetting it will be 'Serious'
-
I am under the impression that it will just have stricter enforcement of the rules. I think that people will be allowed to mingerun/S2K etc. Don't get your hopes up, HL2RPers.
-
Like crap-head said... We do still have enough members we reached 35/40!!! When it was mornong (in my country) when normally (old map) we had 12/40 or 17/40 go to my steam images if you don't believe me ;)
I've also noticed there are more new/old <-- (who i didn't see on previous map) And i think as much people have evo_v33x as they have evo_v2 because most RP servers use evo_v33x.
And if they still don't have it, it can be easely downloaded from toybox.
And srr for any stupid spelling mistakes, this was written on my Iphone.

The reason your players rate has gone down is because Exiled Servers is back.
-
Name ONE place on evo_v2d where you can plant shrooms.
Changing back to v2d is bad. The server got full a couple of times with v33x. The map is soo much better and people can actually enjoy playing on it.

These are both SO true and maybe (A LITTLE) because ES is back...

Well I do agree with the statement, but its sad that there is something that will never change, no matter what tatics you use, police lose in defense of raids and in raids. For the main reasoning that you guys ingame are," extrmely skilled marksmen". While in real life you would never have ak shooting auto because the accuarcy is terrible. I suggest SWAT should get a m4 on this new server, and the AK to be a bit slower and inaccurate. The AK is already terribly powerful.
-
If I don't see a improvement in players in the next few days, this will be happening. We are still hitting 40 during EU day, however, during the US day the average players drops down to around 20.
-
I really don't wanted to go back to the old map. We can do better races here and other events and we even have a full lake here.
-
Try getting it more populated then. Invite friends, etc.

If i got this right, we are not SWITCHING map. We will have 2 servers running. RP_EvoCity_v2d and another one RP_EvoCity_v33x.
Rofl atleast dont leave 33x down for days. Install the "serious" server alread and set it up. Then if you decide to switch then just change map on the current one and announce the new one when the switch is done.
Dont change the map then wait days intill putting up 33x.
-
It took me 15-20 tries before i finally connected to x33, and inside city i lagged like shit when the server was above 25 Players, I liked the Lake houses and Sub 3,4. Also the Bar houses was cool, but i saw a lot of errors, and when i downloaded the OCRP Content it didnt do any change. Also the grass everywhere is Purple and Black Squares. But the old map can be a little boring after playing a while. so i really dont know if we should stay or go back to the old :/
EDIT: If its 100% That we are going back to the old map just Set up an Day / Night Schript on (version: v2d) could be awesome.
-
You had to install Half Life 2 Episode 2 for x33 to work properly.
-
Is it free ??
Or does it cost like €20 or something
-
i do like this v33 map a lot now, but the only prob was that when there is about 20 or 30 people in the server and it is very hard to join in the server when there a lot of lags going on. so you should like make a server that have like one is evocity_v2d and the other server has evocity_v33d. what im saying is like two server in one, share the same stuff( see what im getting there?)
im not saying u should do it, im saying u should think about that. know how deathrun and bhop server stay attach the same amount of money and object.

Have you read OP?

Evo2 All the way. That map is great, Its huge, so it will allow for a lot of players. And seeing how it requires ep2 and takes a while for it to DL, most minges won't even bother to get on.
-
Almost evryone agrees on: old map = full server, 10-15 more minges, less passive RP
V3xx = more passive RP less players but not to bad, good for passive RP, in general a better map.
