Layabout has been good enough to set up a domain and hosting for the clan, so if you could take all U75 Clan based discussion over to there, that'd be cool :)

Cheers

------

Back in the days when you had to pay £15 a month to an ISP, plus call charges I used to be in a clan.

Then flat rate and broadband came along, the price of gaming dropped as did PCs, and the result was 10,000 kids swamping servers and, well ruining it for me I guess.

I got sick of the immaturity and '1337' speak more than anything, but that does not mean I still don't enjoy a game now and again :)

I was wondering if anyone of you lot would be interested in forming a U75 clan, and perhaps, in time our own server...

HL/HL2/CS/CS:S/UT2004/Tribes/QTF/TFC/Quake.... whatever your fancy,

Or how about simply a [U75] Tag that well all adopt when playing so we can recognise each other? :)

*FIRKED*[U75] for example

[U75]Iamanoob

i use iamanoob as my handle in most online games as it pisses people off when they get stomped on by someone they think is a noob. plus its dead handy if i play like a girl and get taken up the back passage

server wise i *may* be able to help out there... in about a months time i wil have a spare server (dual xeons, 2gig ram) and a static IP address on a 2 meg line that should be available.

games wise i currently play vietcong, dawn of war and a couple of other RTS games but have no issue with firing up HL2 or some other games if thats whats wanted.

whos going to do the clan website?

firky
06-01-2005, 00:17
I'll do the website.... we gonna get this thing rolling then?

Nice thread dude! I've been after a fun clan for aaaages! :D:D

::EDIT::

I've been going under loads of different names recently, although in CS it's been VeSuViuS for a few days now. :)

Dudes this is sooo cool!! Call of Duty, Counter Strike CS, UT2004 are good ones for me but my online time is seriously limited these days (although i've a very good friend with a wifi LAN!;)). But, erm, apart from all that i'm interested!:)

ah good ole UT classic one of my first online games. My first was actually Mechwarrior 3 and then Kingpin and then UT I then played CS for a hile but got fed up of cheats and mouthy little kids then moved on to Americas Army played that for a long while but got fed up of elitest 'I am the best' arseholes now Ive found a niche with COD and joint ops. However I did play CS source recently and enjoyed it (even though I got owned. LOL). It looks very nice

OMG. I remember playing that on BT's Wireplay service!

It all started with Quake (and QuakeWorld), then Duke Nukem 3D (which saw me do my first PC upgrade - a 486 DX2/66 to a blistering DX4/100 with 16mb RAM!), then Quake2 (which inspired me to buy my first graphics card - a VooDoo2 w/16mb i think)...

Ahh..those were the DAYS!

i'm the same - classic UT is still superbly playable, i've got 2003 and it ran like a dog. i've got a much better spec now but still don't play it - i just don't think they improved the game with that one.

however, for me, FPS has been replaced by MMORPG now. anyone wanna form a guild? ;) :D

next step - RPG PvP, there isn't any in EQII but they may be thinking about it. Gonna try WoW for PvP when it comes out.

anyone played Anarchy Online before? they're offering original game download and one year sub for free if you register before jan 15th. apparently it's a very mature game, having been round for four years now. hmm, not sure. thing is you can only hope to play one of these at a time, there aren't enough spare hours in anyone's life for two of them.

sorry for RPG derail, as you were. :)

I'd be well up for this.

Used to play quake world back in the day, then classic ut, then ut 2004 - the Onslaught mode is really, really good, would also be up for hl/hl2/cs/cod.

Even if don't play other clans we could get some good deathmatches going.

Clanstyle CS is still full of twats. ETF (http://www.etfgame.com/) is due to be released soon and should be fun though.

If you get a TFC clan together PM me and I'll arrange some friendlies with the clan I'm in, I wouldn't bother with TFC leagues though, the community is shite and it's dying off.

Bob Marleys Dad
06-01-2005, 16:03
Seems to me that we need to agree a game to play before the clan gets sorted.

CS is good but it's limited to the number of people that can play at once plus it's shit if you're playing some l33t types who blow you away before you even get a round off (speaking from experience here), maybe a deathmatch type game could be the way to go initially?

Maybe CS deathmatch?

Or maybe a game like the original Unreal Tournament?

Kid_Eternity
06-01-2005, 16:04
I don't have the orginal UT. You can pick up Wolvenstien for around a tenner now and it should run on older machines. What's peoples thoughts on that game?

narky
06-01-2005, 16:05
HL2 deathmatch is quite fun, and there's the option to play Team Deathmatch too. Otherwise UT is definitely very team-orientated.

With regard to CS:S though, practice makes l33t.

I mean perfect. ;)

If everyone posted thier favourite 3 we could do a democratic voting type thing. Anyway,

02. Counter Strike: Source (looks so good)
03. Unreal Tournament 2004 (just love Face Classic ctf)

2) UT

3) CS Source

Ill do a Dawn of War page for it... as its the only onli9ne game im any good at. Some L33t kid on DoW chat said 'U75 CLAN RUSH TOO MUCH IVE HEARD OF YOU' but as far as I know Im the only person playing it and that was my 2nd game. Anyway I rushed him :D

I think one of the things we need to do is get the webby up and get a list of servers which we frequent on there: then we stand a better chance of finding one another (especially in CSS).

And MSN's a good way of organising stuff.

I play CoD a lot on some server calling itself "tactical realism" as "dead man walking" good server cos its got some good weapon mods on it, such as no crosshairs so you HAVE to aim down the sight, and tripwires if you have enough grenades.

I want to see the whites of their eyes before they kill me I tried it for about 45 minutes yesterday. Didn't have a clue what was going on. Even when I kept getting myself killed early on each round, just so I could spectate (and if you believe that...) to find out what the score was, it was still pretty confusing. Methinks I need to perhaps read the manual before inflicting my skills on the CoD world. :D

were you on single player or multiplayer? single player starts with the training camp which shows weapon use and stuff.You still won't know you're way around and the lines of fire and so on.

If you go staight onto multiplayer without knowing what to do, well you're going to die quickly and often. In multiplayer there are different games you can play. i generally do team deathmatch (tdm) cos you are reinacarnated straight away when you die. It's the same in deathmatch (dm)but that tends to be a bit more hectic. search and destroy (s&d) , headqurters (hq) are a more tactical and you have to wait before to the end of the game before you are reincarnated

it's a great game when you get the hang of what's going on. In multiplayer i'd start with a machine gun if i were you. Thomson if you're US, PPSh if you're ruski and MP40 or 44 for geman. the british machine guns aren't that good. so get it and blast away

I've actually played the single player thing the whole way through when it first came out, but because it was an 'evaluation' copy (ahem..) never played it on multiplayer. Last night, I think I was playing an SD map and didn't quite know where the targets where, how to plant the bombs, diffuse them etc., hence my confusion.

I shall have a little offline practice and hopefully see you there!

there is a thread there about the games played, with a poll. vote if you have favorites. i'd sugest buying the games, since you'll be playing them online. my recomendation is getting half-life 2 bundled with counter strike source, chepest from amazon at £25 (i think it was) but read the system req before hand. if that's to expencive for you get half-life 1, can be bought realy low price now and then download counter strike 1.6 from counter-strike.net. it's free. cs is always free but runs on the hl engine. there are other games as well but i find the source engine the best, and hl after that. you could always start a new thread at the clan page and ask there as well ;)

No. Counterstrike 1.5 won't work. It has the Half-Life 1 engine to power it.

Counterstrike Source uses the Half-Life 2 "Source" engine and as such they are completly different.

Counterstrike Source is superior in that it has the Half-Life 2 physics engine, which can make the game much more interesting. As objects get shot, they can fly around all over the place. I even seen one gun fly out of a dead persons hands as the bullets hit the gun.

I don't want to disable AWPS on our server, because when it comes to compititions, they'll be availble to buy and then what are we to do when someone on the opposing team starts taking us out with an AWP, if we have never even practised against people who have AWPS?

The best answer to a "noob" running around with an AWP is to shoot the bugger!

lol, yeah you do need the practice after all - when playing on other servers or against other teams they'll 'ave them

Its just part of the experience of practice

and dying and respawining and getting sniped and respawing and getting sniped etc etc

Its not so bad in a large team, but can be a tad annoying if there's only a handful of us and a couple of really experienced players jump on and snipe the hell out of you!

But then again, some maps are really sniper friendly - port for example, I think it just ups your tactics, after all there are only certain snipe points that are strongholds and hopefully you can grenade them then blast the pesky snipers close range

PS will have to wait for next pay day before I can make another donation, really skint this month :(

I know its sad isn't it - 'noob' and 'gay' , probably those spotty 14 year old oiks who've been headshooting us the feckers, can't be done with it, its just nice to practice.

tbh most servers are quite used to us newbies, i tend to bash out a quick message saying something 'sorry I'm dying so much i'm a newbie' . the worrying thing is when you see someone with about 40 kills and 5 deaths, that makes me disconnect pronto lol. But bear in mind a lot of people have been playing CS since half life 1 days - I've only started playing CS source... ggrrr

I dunno what the hell is the matter with it - it's either a hard drive failure or virus or both, but I've had a bitch of a time this week trying to get it sorted.

The CPU and motherboard are getting on a bit and I hope they've not gone ... grrr. anyway one of my mates is phoning tonight to try and help me out - in the meantime I'm stuffed and work firewall blocks the u75clan.com site double grrr.

I'm gonig to get some upgrading done anyway - athlon64, new mobo, new graphics card, case, PSU etc so should be sorted in a week or so as soon as I sort out who to buy from (probably komplett at the moment)

so have fun you CS junkies you, catch you up in a bit

I managed to sort it out last night, I've got 2 hard drives - a new 160 gig seagate barracude and a 60 gig drive that came with the system when I bought it, this is the one that has fucked up I think (it's about 3-4 years old now and is *horror* an IBM, so its coming to end of its life I reckon).

Unfortunately my OS was installed on the smaller drive and I was using the larger one for dumping data on - torrents, pics, music (which all came to about 60 odd gig! jesus!)

Managed to rescue things with my emergency recover disc and win2000 disc, but things still weren't great - but at least managed to rescue stuff like essential torrents, music, outlook .pst file etc.

I've installed XP pro on the newer barracuda drive and going through the horrendous but familiar process of installing software, what a fag man.

so here's the plan - new kit; athlon64 3000+ (venice core), asus A8N mobo, new PSU (450W), new case and prob an X800 graphics card. I can rescue sound card, memory etc from old system and then have fun ha ha! Hopefully I'll have some dosh too for a SATA seagate drive (90 notes for a 250gig, bargain) then can mirror a drive in case anything goes tits up....

god this is the 2nd time this has happened and each time it's a right pain, such is life when computers are a large part of it eh? (sad I know)

see ya'll soon - when komplett and aria have milked my pocket!

I've been pretty OK with my ping - its usually 35-40 unless a shed load of bots appear ;)

probably the combination of a 1meg BB connection and a semi-decent gfx card (9800 pro) helps.

I wouldn't take it too much to heart my friend. I asked them 5 times what their server tickrate is and they refused to entertain my question.

I wish I had noted the console command to find that out, because if they were running at a tickrate of 66 or 100, that would explain a lot.

sorearm
01-08-2005, 00:19
excusing my general dimness, but what's tickrate?

excusing my general dimness, but what's tickrate?

It's basically the amount of data that goes between the client and the server between a set amount of time or the other way around depending how you look at it.

The default setting (Which our server is set to) is 33.

The next one up is 66, which means that the data would flow through twice as fast between the client and the server. You can have it set to 100, but many peoples connection would not be able to handle much over 20 players at that kind of setting.

There is steep effect when we are dealing with more players. Each player you add to a server, means more data in percentage terms than the last one. Which means the 40th player costs the clan a lot more than the 8th player.

If we wanted to, we could have our server set at 66, but then, we would be restricted to 28 players. I can't remember what it would be for 100, but it wouldn't be many!

My original point is, that if their server was set to a 66 tickrate and they didn't tell us. All they have to do, is set their CounterStrike client to a 66 tickrate and bingo - we are running around with hitboxes twice the size of theirs.

No. That's the last thing we want to do. We just need to make sure we find out how to protect ourselves when we visit servers. IE learn the freaking console commands for important CVARS!

Hells teeth!

Turned my pc off last night after a smashing CS sesh with the clan, turned it back on again this morning and it wouldn't get past the POST splash screen, can't tab out of it to see what's going on either.

A few days ago on the POST screen when it was checking the RAM it just kept checking it over and over and not moving on but when I escaped out of the check it booted up but now it won't have it at all.

Any ideas anyone? I'm thinking it's the RAM. I'm also thinking it needs a bloody good clean so I'll try that when I get home. Typical innit, finally get my copy of HL2 and the pc goes on the blink. Ho hum.

Cheers for that, unfortunately after a good clean it still refused to boot so it's going to the menders after work today, for a tenner they diagnose exactly what the problem is and then try to charge me £25 to install the new part I buy off them. Unsurprisingly, I'll be installing it myself.
