Zorgain 482 Report post Posted April 6, 2016 I mean Minecraft wouldn't be bad, but I always got bored of it fast. Best server would have to be DayZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cpt. Duck 104 Report post Posted April 6, 2016 I would primarily suggest a introduction of Straya Gaming into the CS:GO scene, there are many benefits of starting a server on CS:GO and not many disadvantages...1. It is one of the most played games of all time/ HUGE player base 2. potential for expansion of game servers from Minigames to Jailbreak to surf to deathrun to just plain alpha game modes like retake... 3. Advertisements, when joining CS servers most have a short advertisement at the start which helps the server stay running 4. Easy to administrate and take care of. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I know pretty shit system, but I was able to run the older version before planets were in and I could build large structures and only ended up with mass fps drops once there was damage done to the structures like what a warhead does. Mind you this was when the game was dx9. For anyone who wants to be able to play they would need at a minimum a gpu that supports dx11as thats required for planets.

Ya Mum 187 Report post Posted April 7, 2016 Depends on what type of servers are we going to stick to, First person shooter type, world of warcraft, Minecraft, flight simulation etc but if it were me just let the gaming statistics decide. https://newzoo.com/insights/rankings/top-20-core-pc-games/ for example Get big fuck of posters made, speak to EB games and get them put up in there with Straya Gaming Community in big fuck off letters. Failing that, signs right out the front of EB games or something like that 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DX11 is mandatory now anyway. as well as a 64bit version of the game. last patch forced it. i have really done any huge builds or played around but its been optimized a lot now. but i definitely thing we should get a space engineers server. i know a couple ASF guys have the game 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

[PePu'] Cr00k 24 Report post Posted April 7, 2016 I personally would like an insurgency server, Its a growing game and is cheap as chips, so alot of people will be buying it in the near future if straya does get a server on insurgency. It even goes on sale for 2$ sometimes, theres many gamemodes, and its uncomparable to other games. The playerbase is growing rapidly and i believe strayagaming will easily be able to fill a 30 slot server 90% of the time if and when it gets up and running. Its easy to run, cheap, growing player base, and it is a realistic FPS which kind of feels like battlefield had a baby with arma and its just ridiculously fun, and i personally think it has the best gameplay mechanics out of any fps out there right now.

Leopard 7 Report post Posted April 8, 2016 Well with the only other big time A3L community looking like its over.. (Housos) I think A3L I think even though A3L is still ArmA3 it would allow Strayagaming to have the only successful A3L server in Australia this essentially forces people into playing your server and if done right could see I would think anywhere up to 200 members in a month or two. Only issue with A3L is the amount of coding required as there is very little default to work from. Takistan is a horrible theory. The RolePlay is garbage and gets BORING really fast. Trust me. A bunch of 12vies running around with suicide vests that require minimal declaration... I do though feel a altered version of Takistan could be successful.. A less kill spree and Hardcore RP essentially a A3L lakeside but on takistan map.. According to a few people I have talked to, Takistan has quite a large frame that requires very basic and minimul amount of coding to be running in full flight. Overall; Talk about controlling the market, A3L is something no one has at the moment.. (apart from a dead and angry, no longer being developed housos community) and is a great attraction for the community. - Mr. Snow Leopard //See ya on the end of me .408// 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toooheys 8 Report post Posted April 9, 2016 Keep the normal Altis but put a modded Altis in. So the modded server can have like Jonzies Car. CUP Weapons. etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sylver 27 Report post Posted April 12, 2016 Seems like the 2 most popular game servers in this thread is CSGO and Space Engineers, does anyone else have a suggestion for a different game server or a particular mode for the above? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zorgain 482 Report post Posted April 12, 2016 I mean if they think they can handle another server then why not go ahead but there's not much point in another game server as of yet, Just my thoughts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sylver 27 Report post Posted April 12, 2016 The ideas of other game servers are not limited to variety for current members, it is also focused on gaining more members leading up to making strayagaming the community of choice for many due to the diversity of gaming available and place it as number 1. I personally think that now is as good a time as any to introduce new game servers and having the community decide what games they should be seems to be the most logical thing to do.
