RileyFletcher_01 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Thanks for two hours of great fun, Apex. I worked as squad leader and we did fairly well, aside from about 15 lost missions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpl_Tunnel Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Wow so stoked, you are the man, thx so much for setting up a server. I'm getting on now hopefully some will join. It's 8:30 CST for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RileyFletcher_01 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Hey, I can't get on right now but me, Oelmuvun, and possibly another guy are logging on tomorrow anywhere from 2:00 to 4:00 CST. Maybe I'll see you then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oelmuvun Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) Riley: Cpl_Tunnel, -=MAYOR=-(IIRC) and myself just finished up a little slaughter. But it was not us who were doing the slaughtering at least not at the end. Earlier we did a wicked night mission on the dock thing area though. No friendly losses; you would think we pros!

Let us know when it is permanent and ill let some of my friends know as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silko Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Awesome stuff, as soon as I manage to get the time I will join in - might bring some friends along too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApexMods Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Sounds great! The more, the merrier! One more thing: We have 2 Mumble voice communication servers available, 1 in North America and 1 in Europe, with 30 slots each. I haven't got around setting them up just yet and frankly don't have a clue. Anyone with experience and willingness to help out, please raise your hand.

RileyFletcher_01 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Hey Apex, is Frostbite a permanent fixture here? I think it will cut down on players because of the effort it takes to download and join that big thing. I mean, like the guys who just jumped on with us from Xfire, they might not be able to join if Frostbite is required seeing as they don't know about ghostrecon.net.

RileyFletcher_01 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Nevermind that comment, it isn't as big as I thought. I already have 10% done. Can't wait to play, any set times today? I'll be available at around 2000hrs GMT. My link Use that link to see the current GMT time. See you in the battlefield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope people will be fine with running different mods now and then. Nothing is a permanent fixture, we do want to offer some variety. With about 1,000 mods available for Ghost Recon it would be quite a shame not to. AND WHO THE HECK DOESN'T KNOW GR.NET?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RileyFletcher_01 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Yeah good point. Surprises me as well that people don't know about this great place. Oh, are we patching Frostbite to 1.3? Yours says 1.2, that could be an issue for those who have patched. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApexMods Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Oops, nope it's supposed to be Frostbite v1.3, sorry. Oh and Riley, please refrain from posting comments in the server announcements thread - see OP: If you have a dedicated server that hasn't made the news page post them here. All other posts in this thread (other than IP's) will be deleted. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RileyFletcher_01 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Sorry, didn't see that. I'll patch it to 1.3. This looks like a pretty good mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApexMods Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Admittedly I am totally flabbergasted that you have not played Frostbite yet! And for you to openly admit this sacrilege is even more shocking! Young man, you are in desparate need of Rocky's DVD Set! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RileyFletcher_01 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Woe is me, I'm currently in a state of poverty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oelmuvun Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) Yea, I have not played frostbite either. Nor have I played heroes unleashed and many others. I have pretty limited and expensive bandwidth where I am. Though it sounds like my connection is just slightly better than Riley's. Welll... 237MB.. I guess. This is not going to happen frequently, I mean it. Already more than a day's bandwidth alone :\ Edited May 30, 2012 by Oelmuvun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApexMods Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Dang! Sorry, guys! Didn't want to cause you trouble! I shall switch back to just GR/DS/IT for now. *Edit: Done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oelmuvun Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) In 15 mins at least I will have frostbite for the future. >_> Even if it is not used now. Edited May 30, 2012 by Oelmuvun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ApexMods Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Oh man. So you want me to put Frostbite back up now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oelmuvun Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 that depends what other people would like. you do not have to but I am prepared for it being used in the future at least. Perhaps once things get settled in start doing, say, one big mod a month or something. give people time to try all the guns and poke around the maps.

I haven't got around setting them up just yet and frankly don't have a clue. Anyone with experience and willingness to help out, please raise your hand. The chaps and I use mumble and have done for about 2 years because the quality is is far better than ventrilo (which is what we used to use). We don't host our server ourselves though, we use multiplay for the excellent price and service they provide but if you have a specific problem getting it all set up I might be able to help xfire - silk0 (all welcome to add me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RileyFletcher_01 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 (edited) I would leave Frostbite off. Even if it meant not as much fun, it would be worth getting more players on. I'm on the server. Anyone else want to play? Edited May 30, 2012 by RileyFletcher_01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RileyFletcher_01 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Anyone? Me and Oelmuvun are waiting in the lobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
