Greetings+ technical :)

First i would like to thank the IS Team for hosting a avp server for the locals.

Just to let people know there is a Group on Steam  http://steamcommunity.com/groups/AVP_SA .
Currently there are 25 members. Every person i see on the IS server loves the game including me, so if you're a fan of AvP get the game you wont be disappointed. 

Ok now onto the technical side. I understand this is currently in beta, but here is my input anyway :).  The server is little more delayed than I think it should be, using the ingame voice chat there is also delay, which makes it difficult to communicate.

Another issue is when international people join the server the delay becomes much heavier making it impossible to play, so maybe a ping cap of 250 or something like that would fix this. Other than the delay maby being able to change map and type would be cool aswell.

I would just like to thank you again for hosting, and I hope we see more SA people playing AvP because it really is a awesome game.

i dont know much about how AVP is designed, but it is possible that the delay is due to the games design and not IS' server.


But like i said, i dont know much about how AVP is coded.

Happy Gaming :)

They have tried to make the same game as in AVP2, but with a graphics overhaul. But still the game is interesting to play. I do like the multiplayer part. But playing the same type of match over and over is boring.

Please change to different match type or get another server up and running?

 

cheers

Hey

I also just wanna say thanks for the server guys :). I am part of the group mentioned by 'deadmeat' aswell and I agree about there needing to be different game modes either by player votes, a rotation system or just anotha server or two.

Another concern is that randomly IS server will drop everyone on a map rotation...just after the lobby where we choose our species. It says 'connection to server timed out' or something? When it does happen everyone will drop...not sure who's side this problem is on so maybe u guys could look into it.

I'm really greatful that there is a local server for us thanks to IS and keep up the good work :)

I read somewhere... can't remember where... that that is a bug in the game. Should be rectified with the next patch release.

Hello there, also a member of the avp SA group :D There isn't much for me to say as Deadmeat and Legion have both said it all.

The problem with being kicked during loadup is that; when you enter the game without being in lobby first the marine is selected as default, so we're all forced to play marine, as opposed to being able to choose out own races.

Once again thank you for hosting, it's awesome!!

I dont normaly waste my time on comments like this. but if you goto http://steamcommunity.com/groups/AVP_SA you will see on my announcement i asked every one to register on IS-forum and post.  This is not a conspiracy Sniper and legion play AvP they from SouthAfrica and are part of our AvP Steamgroup. i asked every one on my Steam announcement to post on IS-forum so we could get server issues solved.  Beyond this you can add me and them as friends on steam and look at our individual profiles and talk to us. no need to be so paranoid.

Paranoid... lol. Sure. Creating multiple accounts is a conspiracy theory that threatens the very fabric of my existance.

Merely an observation... nothing more
