So, as it was pointed out in the CG meeting, Heavy Balls was suggested as a server.
More servers? Sure, no problem, except for this game mode.
Its dead, literally dead.
Out of the four servers that actually host this game mode, they have no population. If we look at them on gametracker, they are fucking barren as shit.

http://www.gametracker.com/server_info/103.18.206.52:27045/
So, what I'm saying is, lets not even invest our time, or resources, into servers which will not do what we need, and thats drawing in population to CG.
-
I am going with Kwaurtz on this one. I would like to see new game modes and servers, but since this game is so dead there isn't much point to it. The only people that would be playing on it would be CG guys.
-
I've never even heard of the mod... If it's as dead as you say then it's just taking up space in our FTP or w/e.

It's some Garry's Mod gamemode, and yeah, we shouldn't invest money in servers that won't get played.
-
I don't remember this in the meeting, but yeah lets NOT get this.

Who the fuck names a gamemode Heavy Balls.
Who even suggested this mode? We have two empty TF2 servers, do we really need another empty server??

It's a Garrys Mod game. And Otterfiend.

Mind you I suggested this when it first came out, and people were flocking to it much more than they are now.
At this point, I would agree not to even try it.
-
So why was it (I assume) so recently pointed out?

It was pointed out during the meeting. Nowhere do I see people 'flocking to it' as otter has said, but Inject mentioned something about putting up a new server soon on teamspeak, so I did some investigation on it like I try to do for most things I don't know about, and voila.

For a while there was a test server before it originally released. It was a hit on there and was something new for people to play. However about 2 weeks after the release, it died pretty hard. I never remembered to talk to inject about it afterwards, but yeah, bad idea now to put up a server.
-
We brought it up at the meeting because it's the only thing really suggested besides OC and NS2. We need to find a new game that we can all play together soon though, free games are preferred but eh I'll get a paycheck one day.
-
I suggested Prop Hunt, Source Forts, Fretta was suggested, Eternal Silence, so don't say that there wasn't anything else suggested.

Wasn't Eternal Silence dead too? Prop hunt and fretta sounds good but I think we had some issues with fretta in the past.
-
It may be pyro, but the point I was making is that heavy balls was not the only thing suggested.
-
If there was a fretta server I would definitely play it.
-
I've been wanting Fretta to come back.
-
We've had Fretta quite a bit on and off. I think the reason is because there wasn't really many people playing it. Could be wrong though but it was nearly always barren.
-
Take Saxton down, replace with Fretta if we have the resources and a HA who can keep it stable?

A few problems with that. After garrysmod 13 rolled out, most prior gamemodes needed to be fixed/updated, meanwhile Garry Newman took out the fretta vote system from the base game files. Most of the gamemodes that use fretta were not updated, and finding a working fretta base from the files would be difficult.

Actually, we've found one already, DBag and I have been looking into it and are going to see if we can get it functioning enough.

Good luck getting a bunch of working gamemodes
-
I've been playing on one that has atleast 12.
-
Not exactly the same as Fretta, but if you wanted a decent workaround while we wait for it, could have a minigames server.
-
After doing some work arounds with the fretta base, its fighting back on me. I'm gonna see what I can dig up.

Saxton isn't part of this at all. Saxton should stay. We have already enough resouces for another Gmod Server no problem.

Fuck no, our Saxton is fucking barren.

It gets people at strange times. It needs an HA who has time to move with it.

Agreed, but if we can't find any community interest like the small bit of attention Nmrih is suddenly getting I believe it should come down.
