 Registered Member #584 Joined: Mon Mar 28 2005Location: Denmark Posts: 151 | Sorry Hawk. You done a good effort, but I dont see many gamers left on the server. I, for one, being european, get too much lag/ping, so i get puntet all the time. Further more, regarding the new maps, i find them too hard too be fun. In my oppinion, you got to have a change to go through without being killed, if you are very carefull, as i use to be. Thats not possible in those new maps. If we compare the new server with the old, i can see, that im not the only one with that oppinion... This is just meant as a tip for you guys, in order to service your "costumers" in the best way. Anyway. Thanks for your time and effort, HmS (25) (25) | ||

  Registered Member #143 Joined: Mon Mar 29 2004Location: Georgia, USA Posts: 1700 | Regarding the old DFX server, it won't be back. Meken was hosting it, and has had some unknown problems that have not been resolved with his pc. Esc and TR work fine, but DFX sys dumps and locks up the machine. We then tried on our dedicated server machine, and it was constant sysdumps. So, right now it is Hawk. We do try to host without lag, but it is a fact of life. I've played on the server and don't get much lag. Meken has tested maps on the server without problems. Some maps get lag (when they have many objects, etc.) but generally there's not too big of a problem. The lag could be on your end. As to the maps, I'm sorry. You DO NOT have to have the chance to make it through the map without dying. If you want easy, try another server. We pride ourselves with servers that will drive you mad with deaths. It is not easymaps, it's hardmaps :) We are keeping an eye on this server, and HmS very much appreciates Hawk taking the time, and devoting his bandwidth, to host this server for you. | ||

| Registered Member #584 Joined: Mon Mar 28 2005Location: Denmark Posts: 151 | OK.I see your point. I know its "Hardmaps", and usually like it that way. It must be me then, as I think, the new maps is to much like JO, which ive never liked, due to the above reasons. (Too much stress and chaos) Further, i would think, that a great number of players in both TFD and DFX, will sign, that im not afraid of "hardmaps" Still I must remind you, that, at the time being, (23.00 European middle time on a saturday evening) there is only 1-one, player at the server, (proberbly the host) where it use to be full........ Regarding the lag, im on a 2MB line, and usually get no lag at all.... <span class='smallblacktext'>[ Edited Fri Jan 27 2006 ]</span> | ||

  Registered Member #259 Joined: Fri Jul 30 2004Location: U.S.A. Kentucky Posts: 227 | Carston, Thanks for the reply (30) I do have a wide variety of maps. If you stay in my server long enough you will find 75 maps of all sorts. Some very hard to very easy. This is (36) like Quick said and I hope that u will continue to play on the HardMaps server. We value every player that comes to play on our servers but we stress that this is (36) And as for the connection I am on a 2mb cable connection myself. (31) I even have lag on some of these maps when i test them private from everyone else. (71) I will continue to try and make this the most challenging server in DFX (76) If ya cant stand the heat stay out of the kitchen (37) | ||

The Legend Registered Member #138 Joined: Tue Mar 23 2004Location: Stockholm Sweden Posts: 541 | Buhuu Buhuu.. im dieing to many times, well if u dont like to die, make some own maps, host your own server, sorry if the new server dont fit you, but stop whining about 10-20death. As i allway will say I spit on pointhunters, and if i die 10-20 times in a map.. who cares, i dont. When i have played in the dfx i hate the maps becuse they are to easy, even maps that ppl say, oo so hard, practice practice and maybe one day you guys will be good as the HmS team, and we die 20-30 times in a map, and we think thats a good map. | ||

Captain Slow  Registered Member #3 Joined: Fri Dec 19 2003Location: Scotland Posts: 4651 | Everyone has different ways they want to play, everyone has different styles of playing which all have to be thought of here. Now the new server Hawk has up has many of the maps that were on the other server and they havent been changed or modified, some new maps have come out which have been added to Hawks server rotation to keep the server upto date with new maps. We as yet have not brought out any maps for DFX but the ones that are in the pipeline will be nasty and difficult ones to keep up with the hardmaps tradition. From what i have seen a large proportion of the maps are hold your position and shoot as many as you can maps and as i have said earlier some like this kind of map, others might enjoy the harder maps that are now in the rotation, trying to please everyone with different game styles is very difficult, the maps will cater for all types of gaming styles some are easy some are hard. In regards to lag, the last server was based in the EU so us all on this side of the pond didnt get much lag but our other players got lag, no matter how fast your connection speed is you will suffer the further away from the server you are, it cant be helped, now that the server is based in America its our turn to get a bit of lag, after all when you think about it, its wonderful you can even join a server and play along side other people from all over the world while talking to them at the same time, what were we doing 10 years ago, maybe dreaming of the things we can do now but certainly no where near what we have now. We put servers up for peoples enjoyment and pleasure, trying to bring many cultures and nations together in friendship to play along side each other, hardmaps is about teamplay, you work as a team to win the map, and you feel good about doing it. We have servers up in Land warrior, Task Force Dagger, Joint Operations Typhoon Rising, Joint Operations Escalation, Joint Operations International Conflict and Delta Force Xtreme, not many places offer gaming on all these levels at one time, im not saying we are perfect but I do believe that we are one of the best places to get one of the best gaming experiences if you like coop gaming. We are Hardmaps.com and we host hardmaps for anyone to come along and have fun in. Thanks for your comments guys every comment is useful in building a picture of how our servers are doing. (36) | ||

Thats a bit hard as i gave a honest opinion ,if ya wana come spit on me feel free .but first check my stats out under the heading ASSITS you will see im a TEAM PLAYER not a point hunter,i understand you guys like HARDMAPS me to you ...If you think i only play on your maps to point hunt then please remove me from your stats .as the heading says CO-OP..... | ||

Hmm. A very unkind way to respond. I dont understand, why you have the stats, if you dont like people using them. As I wrote earlier in another thread, i think you guys forget, why your servers are so popular in the first place. Yes, the stats! Regarding the "point-hunter" issue, it has nothing to do with that, but rather the way some of us like to play. Its about "realism". Hmm. Difficult to explain in english, but I like to pretend its real life, and therefore, everytime I die, its kind of "mission failed" to me... Again, its not meant as an attack to HMS, just a friendly tip, so no need to be ruthless... Besides, yes, I do care about the points. If thats not legal, again, why are they there? Of cause there is point-hunters on the servers, but Dol is not one of them. In fact, he is the best team-player ive met on the DFX-server. So please stop the personal attack | ||
