Lo Guys, I hate to start a new thread on the BT Assault server issue but ill risk getting hanged to dry anyway.
DO NOT consider this an object for discussion, but merely info (and conseiled oppinion)
BOOMTOWNs main business is TO MAKE MONEY! This among other things, they do on their CS servers and city-membership. They DO NOT make any money on their UT Servers. STILL many ppl (you perhaps) complain about this and that and bla bla bla. But do you PAY anything ? No, I dident think so, I do neither. This is one reason that UT servers, does not have first priority when there is new mods, maps or leagueAS and so. SO the morale hould be: Play on boomtown and have fun - for free.
Just to update ya. There is 3 assault servers, 2 std and 1 custom. All running League Assault 136b and with good scandinavian ping.
I can guarantee you that if noone play on bt servers they will close it down, disregarding the growing lack of UT servers. Normally UT is the 3. most played game on Boomtown but lately UT dropped to a 12. place, IMHO a baaad sign.
About the (in)famous login system. You CAN lock in under whatever pass you want. or you can register as basicmember and get a protected nick - for free ROFL. The system has 2 functions.
1) To give you the possibility to have 3 protected nicks linked to a pass of your choise.
2) Rang a player between PAYING member and NON PAYING member, thus if server is full, kicking the non paying member and allowing the PAYING member to play on the server.
I know you have to register, but it takes 1 minute. No big deal. (on the other hand, you dont HAVE to!)
The login system DO NOT protect against cheaters or players with stupid signs and boxes in their names. Unfortunately!
SO to conclude this post: GO play on bt once in a while, if for no reason, so to let a noob learn from a far better player and keeping the UT society growing. You were all noobs at one time and I'm sure there is allways a better player.
MOST important ! - HAVE FUN and play fair.
Regards to all of you lovely UT Suckers
