Obviously there is going to be a battlefield 2 dedicated server up and running (hopefully the correct version and none of the Desert Combat problems we've always had :) I'm sick of hosting the server). What I'd like to see (If it doesn't effect pings much on a lan server) is having all the games recorded. If there's no serious effect on the pings then PLEASE have this turned on!

And does anyone know if the dedicated servers will record our stats? I'd like to know which guy at shafted I killed the most :D (and the guy who killed me the most so I know which car to wait at when he leaves :P )

I was just looking at some other lanning events and stumbled across maybe another good idea for the battlefield comp. Montster lan has a competition where the best player of battlefield for a certain number of games wins the prize and so on and so on. Maybe this would be a good other comp with not as much cash but still enough to get people intrested.

32 player will be fine. If we fill up too much we can either host another server or increase the numbers. But with yours and a shafted server or 2 we should have plenty of slots :D

dod comp plz kg0

im sure there will be one or 2... however if not i will gladly run one, however i cannot provide prizes (other then my usual can of spam!) unless we want to all chip in or something... but im sure shafted has something planed!

i'd be up for that can of spam comp. i was close last time lol

Only good comp is a 1v1 q3 duel comp on ztn3tourney1 :P

OR CHESS GO CHESS

Is Shafted 33 Actually happening or what??? Havent heard anything about it??

Just have the same old comps:
CS 1.6 or Source..
WC3
BF2
etc
etc

hey gwakkle is it easy to put on that battlerecorder thing? i still havent had a chance to play with that properly. it seems like a fun thing

Hey guys,

Would love it if you were running a server there. We'll be running our own. Not sure what specs but I've bumped some of our servers to a gig to help with the load. We also have a dual xeon 2.8 with 1GB RAM that's being configured specifically for our Battlefield 2 server. We might want yours, though. If it's dedicated, we've got a server area where we can plug your machine in to save space as this event will be jam packed.

There are a few things about comps etc:
* There WILL be a Battlefield 2 comp. Unsure on format since the game is so new. Suggestions please.
* Stunts server? Yep. Would love to - any guidelines for these with BF2? Again, I only bought BF2 yesterday (been on holiday).
* CS 1.6. By popular demand. If the people who said they wanted to play 1.6 actually show up, then we'll do something. Can't promise prizes as our priority WILL be for BF2.
* HL2 deathmatch. I now own HL2 (and so can you for $45 at EB right now - bargain!) and would LOVE to play some HL2DM. There WILL be a server and I'd love to throw shit at you with the anti grav gun. That thing is cool. Again, no promises with prizes here.
* There'll be some CS source us vs. yous.
* There will be a big tub of chupa chups.
* I should also mention that I am drinking a lovely glass of white wine. This has nothing to do with the event whatsoever but I just wanted to say that.

Look forward to seeing all of you there.

white wine eh?.. what up with that??

Can't get on oz.org atm but can I borrow a server with doze to put up a WoW server tristan :P cmoooooon the fun will be ++cool

I AM VERY DRUNK AND MORDAIN AND ZARDOZ ARE HO)MEER SEXUAL S WTRIH EACH OTHER

THAT IS ALL

Manny

This will no doubt be too late...BUT EA released a patch yesterday for battlefield 2. So hopefully the dedicated servers will be up to date (either that, or I'll have to reinstall :( )

I'll try for help at the lan too. But will there be anyone there that will have an external hard drive case which I can plug into a USB port while in windows? I'll need it for just a minute while I see if my crashed drive is truely dead

Thanks

Hay will anyone there be up for some quake and C&C Generals.

BF2 FREAKING ROX!!
