It doesn't happen on the other servers (or at least it didn't used to, I've only played on Fair Play over the last few weeks). So I'm thinking it might be a server-related setting? Is this possible? I don't see how any server setting could cause this. I'll change the team mode anyway and see if that fixes anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm wondering... how does the server decide to assign players to each team? Is it GDI-NOD-GDI-NOD as each player finishes loading? If, for example, I am the first player to finish loading in a series of games, would it make sense that it assigns me to GDI every time?

Or do I have to settle for manually trying to switch teams whenever I fancy playing as Nod? As I mentioned, this doesn't seem to happen on the other servers.

No other server uses that specific setting, that's why. I will change the setting tonight when people are offline. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TomUjain Posted June 7, 2018 Author Share Posted June 7, 2018 Just a heads up, Goku does a monthly clean up of the server leaderboards; so if you want to exchange any points I recommend doing so before the end of the month (contact me).

We keep Alltime, yearly and monthly leaderboards. The !rank and !ladder commands use the monthly. The recs are just bugged. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomUjain Posted June 8, 2018 Author Share Posted June 8, 2018 Not incorrect, Goku did say he was going to start resetting the ladders monthly -- I even double checked the log to make sure. Wasn't my idea lol, but if enough people feel strongly about it I can review this again with Goku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why it's uneven but it's a lot better than before where it was GDI every single time. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomUjain Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 Hello guys, Firstly I want to thank everyone who has shown support and faith in FPI and its ideals - FPI will always do what we feel is best for the community at RenX which leads me to the main purpose of this topic. Players. I feel that many of the issues we face stems from the small community, and, ideally -- I would like to see several full servers as I feel having one dominating server, be that mine or any other is unhealthy in the long term. Over the last few months FPI have had a system in place where players have been incentivised to play via the points system, which allows players to 'exchange' points for 'prizes' -- my hope was that this would give people more motivation to play. However, I've had only 6 people come forward to claim a reward, and I feel that this money could be better put elsewhere. Thus I will be removing the reward points system as of today and instead putting all of the monthly prize budget into full RenX marketing with the overall goal to atleast double player count by the end of this year. I would also like to have specific ads to bring in new coders and developers with the end goal to help bulk out the dev team. This budget will be roughly £40 a month for adwords and £40 a month for YouTube, If anyone would be willing to donate to help with the advertising I would be extreamly greatful. I will publish the full data for everyone to see here. Just note that this 'project' won't go live until the following month (Aug) but this is something in the pipe line. Until we go live, I will not be excepting any donations. What I need in the meantime Several 30s trailer videos to be posted on YT Ideas for a 'landing page' where the ad link will take the person to I welcome your input and ideas and will be checking in every now and then to listen to what you guys have to say 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
