Title: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: *DAMN Alex on August 04, 2002, 08:19:33 pm
I've been on many hosts for rs. Some sucked some ruled. I just want an opinion to see who is your favorite?
My fav would have to be oso. Since he lives about 20 miles from my house

Uh oh...another spam thread..

The best host I've been on is that guy with T1 from Texas....I don't know who he is but damn I get good ping on his server. Another good host is Ultimo but he doesn't get on Gr anymore  >:(

Spam Away!

Well, I just played about 20 games, with 14 people on Infections server, no lag at all, it was great, best ping that I've ever got was 179. Average is about 350, Infection's most have been around 150, it was great.

I would have to put Pryrex down as the worst host, I was in his game, We were doing Rubber Baton wars, he started to quickely, and I acidently got a Slug instand of a Baton, so he boots me, what an idiot, no wonder people hate you.


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: electronicjo on August 05, 2002, 12:06:25 am
Best host I've ever seen was some noob that hosted 16 players games with almost no lag at all. I don't see him online anymore but his name was "scrabbler."

Post by: KoS PY.nq.ict on August 05, 2002, 12:10:40 am
AHAHAHAH Typhy...first off we can get witnesses if you want to make this an ordeal....In the beginning I specifically told you to get Rubber....You then killed me from a mile away with a shottie snipe...one shot...NOT POSSIBLE WITH RUBBER...We then find out you had slugs....SO i asked you to get rubber...Then We played another game...BAM..you had buckshot...The next game buckshot...so on ..so on

Typhy I booted you because you wouldn't fucking select rubber wars and were ruining the fun the other players and I were having...that's why i booted you.


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Typhy on August 05, 2002, 12:15:51 am
First off, don't talk about me when I'm not there to defend myself: ?(uNt? P?rex: omg typhy is such a fucking noob. First off, The first game I had a Buckshot, yes, I don't remember you saying Rubber for the first game, I was eating, so I wasn't paying much attention, for the second game, I thought that I had one, I said that I acidently got a slug, and that I was sorry etc.

Post by: ?(uNt?YodaTi.Hfa on August 05, 2002, 12:20:35 am
Ok, first of i'd like to say ty to pyrex for voting me best host (i am, but PW would argue ;)) Secondly, pyrex is right typhy you used buckshot over and over (im a witness) even after we told you ruber batons, btw pyrex is a good host not his fault he kept his word.


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Typhy on August 05, 2002, 12:24:46 am
Over and over huh Yoda? FYI, the most that he told us to use Rubber was 2 games, I used Buckshot the first game, 'cause I didn't hear him, and in the second game, I used Slugs, I tried to be Baton, but messed up, acidents happen, and he was an ass about it.

Post by: KoS PY.nq.ict on August 05, 2002, 12:27:03 am

Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Typhy on August 05, 2002, 01:03:22 am
Sorry if I overreacted about this, it's just... When you spend 6 hours on the internet wanting to play RS, and are only able to play 25 minutes, and then you get your second chance, and you get booted after 5... It gets really frusterating. I spend 6 hours on trying to play RS today, and only played about 30 minutes.

Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Jeb on August 05, 2002, 11:47:20 am
best host is Rob,
i get pings off him at 20 even though he is 2 states down, plus his game is minimal bullshit chat. its also funny to watch him start the game while noobs cry "STOP!" while he starts the games.

Gorf is the 2nd best host, he lives all they way across the country and i get a solid ping from him.

Dvs, is another good host, as far as comedy is concerned.

You are 13, you arent big. Big is when you get to my size (6'4" 250lbs) and eat just about anything in sight without gaining weight because you are burning it all up.

Nomad: How quickly you forget of bb.

Best host...hmm...

U.S./Canada: Gorf, BB (I was somehow immune to the lag that people complained of), Robert, and the n00b the eSlut was referring to...I remember that guy, 16 players at the Met with frags and lag guns activated (Crazy and wild fun).

Euro: Some Swedish guy who had a T3 hooked up and I was getting sub 75 pings on him (I am in L.A....half-way around the world with sub 75 pings, DAMN)

About infection, isn't his brother psyks? well, i get about pings in the 20's on their hosts but i'd have to say infection is better because his kit restrictions aren't wacked... psyks has hb's but bans jammers... i don't know if this is normal of if it's just him and his U guys trying to take on everyone else 3 to 10...

hmm.. personally i like my laggy BS hosts that i do, but that's just me.

Dunc's snipe games were the best.
robert's ping is great, but the BS they pull on that host is legendary.
Oso's games are usually good, if you can wait out his load.


hmmm.. there's others, but i can't remember any of them


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: [d]-[p a t] on August 07, 2002, 03:32:29 pm
There are great pings everywhere in RS for me... if you don't have a 56k and aren't in europe, pings above 100 are rare... the only thing that for me matters in a host is whether they pull the 1v10 shit or the 3v10 shit... unless, of course, i am on the team of 3. :) when i was, or more like still am, a noob, playing with the team of 10v3 wasn't fun at all... it's a lot better to play a few random team games and then to find which of them was the fairest and keep it... problem is, that everyone who is in a clan will put them and their members vs all... oh well, no one will listen to this... 8)

I've never played on Gorf's on, but I would asume that it's the same as Colin's, I get a fair ammount of lag on them, I guess that it's all in the location. Both VooDoo and Ultimo I used to get pings right around 200 on, they're both great hosts.

if you don't like games that are like 3vs10 or 2v8... don't join rob's host... him and me took did 2v8 for a few hours. its quite fun being the 2, we would average a win every 3 or 4 games


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Typhy on August 08, 2002, 02:20:41 am
Thats true that, it is fun to be on the smaller team, the only time that I suport this is if it's a clan. KoS vs all, AK vs all etc. One thing that I hate is when people do that, and then have Kit Restrictions on, I've seen so many people ( You know who you are ), Block HB sencors when they do their 2v8s or whatever, I think that if their going to do a 2v8, then they should be able to win with everything on, not have to ban things to give them an advantage.


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: electronicjo on August 08, 2002, 04:09:36 am
HBS is cheap, along with C4, and the big clips(though fun at times if used correctly). If HBS is enabled, it would be an advantage for the better players, since most noobs don't use jammers.


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Jeb on August 08, 2002, 04:14:19 am
i haven't used a jammer in a few weeks cause i'm always on a the team of leets. if we could just give seminars about HBSjammers to noobs... it would jazz things up a bit.


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: [d]-[p a t] on August 08, 2002, 10:58:05 am
I don't mind if it's a clan vs, like Typhy said. But, the Kit restrictions on items such as Jammers like PSYKS uses when it's the -|U|- guys vs. is very cheap. while we can hb them also, it takes away our advantage of having all the guys, no matter how crappy, and lets them get a position on most of us with their hb's all throughout the board


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Typhy on August 08, 2002, 01:05:50 pm
My personal opinion, is that HB Sencors etc. Should be on in all games, I don't know if this is because I am a cb player, or what, I think that it adds to the game. If a few people want to do 3v8 etc. Then they should learn to do it with everything on, Lag guns are a exception, they should be turned off if lag is a problem.


Title: Contributions for the n00b Academy
Post by: Mr. Lothario on August 08, 2002, 02:38:26 pm
    You know, this thread reminded me of my n00b Academy. I started making a web site which explains basic tactics (stuff like don't climb ladders, don't stand behind the guy opening the door, etc.) and more advanced stuff, like dodging, and charging towards grenades in certain situations. Unsurprisingly, it was far too much work for me to complete, but since everybody's putting their two cents in about tactics, why not write something for the site?

    Let's spread the word about the leet skills in order to raise the general level of RS skill on GR. Especially with the IRSL coming up, this may make things more fun for all involved.

    Write me something--an article, a paragraph, anything--about your tactics or a favorite tactic, and either PM it to me through the forum or send it to me at mrlothario@san.rr.com . Write about how to pick the best gun, or how to outthink your enemy, or how to snipe in Bunkers, or what not to do in CSL and why... anything. Give me verbiage, and I shall whore my site for the benefit of all! ::strikes heroic pose, theme music plays in background:: Hehe.

    The current proto-site is at http://members.cox.net/mr.lothario/ although that's no longer my ISP, so it'll be moving when I update it. If there's somebody with mad HTML skillzzzzz who would like to make the site less butt-ugly, I'd be much obliged. : )

omfg, as tempting as it is i wont join his games anymore because of this. One time in band camp, lol, nm j/k, i sat there for 5 minute while he set up a C4 trap with 3rd person, man i was pissed, but i still get around a 30 ping from him even thought he is THE WORST HOST EVER!!!

can anyone confirm that rob is that newb that came on 2 months ago and had in his description dual g4 cable connection and his name was just robert and could host 16 person games with no lag?

Oh yeah, with laggy ass games and long C4 drawn out matches that are just sooooooo g'damn boring.  Not to mention how mad he gets when you kill him constantly! LoL!  Maybe one day his nuts will drop and he'll come CB like a real clan ;)

I personally don't know who the best host is, for they all vary from day to day.  The best host is the one pinging under 100 ;D

?Not to mention how mad he gets when you kill him constantly! LoL! ?Maybe one day his nuts will drop and he'll come CB like a real clan ;)



haha 1st off IF you killed rob, he wouldnt get mad at all, cuz when he is c4ing, he is just having fun, cuz he is bored and honestly doesnt give 2 shits about dying.

2nd, rapid you couldnt kill rob constantly even if he just used a pistol and you used a SMG. which brings me to this point, YOU (rapid) 1v1ed with Rob and rob whooped you 6-1 so uh yea , you sure can kill rob.

and 3rd, ooa already cbed Ak and ooa beat you guys. so if you are implying that they should cb you guys, they did and won at it too.

so anyways to keep this thread on topic, i think the best host are Robs , cuz it is fun. he runs it the way i do =D, with only his friends on his team and people he doesnt know on the other =D.

HAHA, If thats true about 350MHz G3 then rapid must be the best host on GR(at warping).  Also if i lag to you and you don't like my hosting don't bitch, just leave.  I'm not sorry that my past week with c4ing was great fun.  have i been know for camping before? so rapid go start up your laggy host that i beat you 6-1(constantly killing) in a 1v1 on or you can stfu and move on.  Is it true you have a 350MHz G3?

Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS

First: You beat Rapid 6-4, not 6-1.

Second Rapid has a 350 G4, not g3.

Third, Robert, your host sucks, it lags, you camp all the time, and when you're not camping, you're either dying and complaining about it, or your warping around killing people by pure luck.

Fourth, Robert, your a dumbass, I used to get along with your just fine, then one day you got mad at Rapid, and put my whole clan on ignore, and boot me from your games, you're a dumbass.

NJ Typhy.

Rob's host is great for me, almost no lag whatsoever. If Rob is hosting and he's warping around(which the host can not warp, because he's the host!!) it's your laggy ass, not him.

Who cares about the exact score, Rob beat Rapid. That's what counts.

1st:Typhy,my clan beat AK 6-4 i beat him 6-1(1v1)

2nd:i would think a cpu at 350MHz is alittle weak to host on...

3rd:keep lieing your good at it. thought out the post it looks like most people prefer my host over rapid. i don't really care but, if i lag to you why do you AWAYS say when you join WAIT WAIT DON'T BOOT ME!!! and of course i boot you. it seems you make up names to say in my games... and yes i must be pure lucky...i don't need you prove your lieing is wrong i'm sure the people in my games see the truth.

4th: why would you keep joining a laggy dumbass host?

hehe rapid, remmber the day i asked you to 1v1 and you said "no i like to kill in #'s". ?well anyways you wanted jo to 1v1. jo didn't want to...so jo and i thought up if jo joins the chat room in GR and i ip join and change my name to ejo as you host it would work out for the best for both of us... so any ways it took me abit to get rs going to change my name just like jo's... thats why i was late at joining and you said "what took you so long?"(something like that). so we 1v1 the first game i think you killed me but the next 6 were owned :P. then at the end of the 1v1 i change my name back to my name and you just left as if you were pissed and humliated. Obviously, you saw it was me and didn't wish to stick around for some reason. i remmber you saying before you wouldn't want to give me the pleasure of geting what i wanted. ?i got just about what i wanted but of course want a 6-0(like anyone else). well it was a all around victory to me. The pleasure was mine rapid.

Here was me hinting to rapid about the 1v1 in the "this one's for AK" thread.
Quote

i've met you in the battlefield 2 times both times we know what happend(Thx jo ;)).



when i said thx jo i was refering to his help as he looked like he was joining rapid's host...i'm sure jo will say what happend.

btw, the OoA vs AK wasn't 6-4 i forgot it was 10-4 partly my falt for saying it in my last post.

rapid, you can deny what i said but jo and i know the truth. All that matters to me.

typhy, i want a answer to my last question in my last post.


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Typhy on August 10, 2002, 01:21:20 am
First off, Yes, you may have beatn us 10-4, we also beat you 12-10.

Second, I keep join a "Laggy dumbass host" aka Robert, because thats the IP that people give me.

Third, Rapid's host is better for 8-10 people than yours are, infact, no matter how much Rapid's host lags, it wouldn't be as bad as yours, sence on yours, you're always there.

Forth and final, I don't give a shit what most people say. I listen to what is said only if the person who says it has a valid point.

Post by: OoA Rob on August 10, 2002, 02:28:46 am
1st: AK has never beaten OoA we have cbed 1 time.
try looking it up on the BL postings i would like to see. or i bet a waste of time for you...but wait i see you posting alot you have time to spare.

2nd: from joining my host so much don't you think you wouldn't you know not to join my ip by now after typing it so much?

3rd: rapid's 350mhz comp is better geard for 8-10 people?i have a duel 500 with 869mb of ram and a newer base system and i give rs a minimum size of 304832k of ram=300mb. Also, i partitioned my hard drive in to 3 and put only rs and wc3 on 1 part(i hear it speeds it up). Anyways lets here about Semper Fi's MAD Processor knowledge...

?OoA? Semper: a 350 MHz G3 vs a 350 MHz G4 on RS on the SAME setups would'nt show a huge difference, if any at all. The main thing that makes a G4 a G4 is the Alti Vec, and programs have to be programed to take advantage of the Alti Vec..
?OoA? Semper: im sure there will be a slight difference in game play... i belive the g4 has more pipelines or shorter, etc, that will affect gameplay SOMEWHAT, but it would be so little.. sO..
?OoA? Semper: I mainly look at RAM, more RAM helps a lot, i need to buy more ram
?OoA? Semper: thats the main choke point in speed right now in macs, RAM, SD 133 so slow
?OoA? Semper: actually I would like to see a 350mhz g3 with same setup, go against a 350mhz g4 in rs fps
?OoA? Semper: i would just say taht a 350 g4 and 500 g4 have big differnces, mainly because a 500 g4 is obveously 150mhz faster.. ?and you have Dual processors, however the applications have to be threaded.. but I do know the G4's can access eachotehrs cache in multiprocessor setups
?OoA? Semper: (not sure if that requires extra coding or not)
?OoA? Semper: but that extra 150mhz would help a lot

now, is that valid info semp beings up?

w000 h0000!! I've actually been quoted from GR! awesome!  ;D



and as to who's the best host, I say Rob is.. naturally. But no, honestly now.. When rob and I play together, I ping in at <90, _SOMETIMES_ 100, but I cant think of a time that i have pinged in rob at over 100, he always has a good ping.

No the host does NOT warp. How long does it take packets from a host to reach himself? ? seconds!!! because it doesn't SEND packets in order for warp or lag. And yeah, I can confirm how I helped Rob 1v1 with Rapid.

Electronicjo,  the host can warp, when it's a processor lag, not a network lag.  I've seen it when trying to host a game that's too big.  Everyone was warping.  But it is not common.


Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Jeb on August 10, 2002, 05:05:37 am
um, i just want to mention that rob's host is leet. in terms of "fairness" it might not be, but its extremely good practice in 3v7s or 2v8s, i get better every time i play a 2v8 with him becasue i can watch him play, and i get practice. so stfu noobs.
also, when rob doesn't camp, he owns, i mean his prefiring is good, he owns with sensors, and jammers, he is by far the greatest RS player their is, i can vouche since i play with him alot. if i'd 1v1 him, i'd probly lose, and he would break my undefeated record.
his host's ping is 50 for me from seattle, he lives somewere in cali so thats a great ping, i get bigpat at 110, and he lives 2 miles from me.

say what you want about rob, or his host, but i'm impressed by both  ;D.

ps. rapid not to start shit or anything, but rob could own all of ak in a heartbeat

Hey Rob what type of computer do you have anyways? Oh I would also like to add that I remember when Rob first started playing RS. He would host big games and play only pistol wars. He wasnt that good at the time but he turned from a newb to a pro in about a month.

i'm not sure about this, but i read in a PC gamer magazine that every person playing on a host takes 33mhz of the host's processing power. that was said for the game UT, but it might hold the same to RS.

Title: Re: Who's the best host for RS
Post by: Typhy on August 10, 2002, 06:51:09 pm
First off Robert, Rogue Spear doesn't use the second processor, for RS it's just 500mhz, Second, it's not all in the computer, I have a Dual 800 as well as a Single 800 Powebook, and an 867g4 desktop, The one that I host from ( the 867 ), has 1 gig of ram, HB like your, split into 20 GH Parts, 3 of them. I run Rogue Spear off an External Fire Wire HD. Upgraded it to a Gefore3 graphics card. I have a very good host for about 4 people, but anything past that, I get tons of warp, Admittable, I am a bad host. - My personal opinion of your host is that it sucks, I also think that you're a dumbass, thats why I avoid it. I understand that it's a popular host though. I will post more later, I wanna go eat now.

Yes, I do live in Alaska, actually which is no farther away from Chicago than Chicago is to Europe ( Just using Chicago as an example ). But for some reason, I get way higher pings, where I was on GameRanger, I would consider 250-400 good, I guess some people often get under 150.

Post by: OoA Rob on August 10, 2002, 11:26:48 pm
ahhh,my noobish days...i wish i remmeber how i played would be cool to know...i kind of forgot when my noobism ended or if i relive it... just just about all good memories but of course thoughs few that would bitch about my hosting. i like to share the enjoy with my friends and if you wish to join,join. i also would like to know if it i lag at times but if you can't handle it or don't like my style of hosting just don't bitch, leave. ?i have tried to maximize my computer's performance. i wish i could get RS working on a ram disk but some how i can't get a ram disk over 250 or 300mb of memory(i forgot the amount)...

Alex is about the only one i remmber most besides PsYcO jojobugg then Kota jojo. i thought highly of jojo and wish to join PsYcO... maybe i was still noobish or i think they were happy how they were... and i checked up KoS and Ult did like my skillz:( but jo did:). all and all i am happy how things went. i have learned alot about people and can apply it to life becuase this is a peace of life...all though some say its just a game,as it is. but the interaction with the people in the small GR community is great. i see it as a hobbie.

hehe, now to answer Alex's question...
i have a Duel500 G4,16mb v-card,896mb of RAM,DVD-RAM(new at the time),40gb HD.
and what i've done to increes proformance is, partitioned the HD in 3 parts put only RS and WC3 on one part, made RS minimum memory size to 304832k(300mb) of Ram(at installation it was about 65-75mb?). i also decreased rs graphic's to run with more fps(although it was fine before, i fugure every bit counts).

Hey AK why would you complain? i'm sorry you don't get pleasure out of my games but how else would you know but by making up names and ip joining(cuz your all banned,but hitman :) ). if we don't have a good network going on sorry not my falt for your joining. Although, i would think i have better hardware than rapid, i have .43 more MHz and possably access 2 times more cache. not to mention i have 896mb of ram.
i'm bet he doesn't have as much ram...

1)from joining my host so much don't you think you wouldn you know not to join my ip by now after typing it so much?
2)are you willing to look though the BL postings to prove your self?(as of now its not proven or some how it didn't get posted?)
these are still unanswered.

btw, to everyone i hope you didn't get tierd of looking at my typing(i'm lazy at engish and typing)...as i'm in summer mode. summer time and the liv'ins easy...(or easier)

oh,Alex i think it would be great if we get to know each other better :D

correct me if i'm wrong...
but when the G4s first came out there was a 400mhz, 450mhz and 500mhz... however demand was to high for the 500mhz that they droped the top one to 450mhz, then 400mhz and then 350mhz.

I've never played on Gorf's on, but I would asume that it's the same as Colin's, I get a fair ammount of lag on them, I guess that it's all in the location. Both VooDoo and Ultimo I used to get pings right around 200 on, they're both great hosts.


Actually downstairs colin has a cable modem with 800/500, and upstairs i have a cable modem with 1500/1000.  So if ur lagging on his host then sux 4 u i guess.

Part of living in Alaska. As for you Rob, the only clans who won't cb us are Cunt and you guys. Rapid is a teamwork play, thats why he won't 1v1 you, I am also a teamwork player, but I know that you suck, so I'd be happy to 1v1 you at any time, contact me on YIM or AIM. As for turning down 1v1s and battles with KoS? - So far in the last month Rapid has battled and beatn: Ejo, Rebel and Tech9ne from KoS, and I have battled and beatn Rebel. - Therfor your point with that is not valid, also your saying that we don't want to cb KoS? Rapid and I do, thats the one thing that we want most, and anytime that Rapid and I are on together, we chalange KoS to a cb, and they always say "no", We've heard reasons from them such as: "Ultimo wants to be there". "We hate 2v2s", "we gotta go to sleep", and "Vipers the only other one on, and he never plays, so he sucks".

My offer stands, we will be happy to cb you, and I will be happy to 1v1 you.

Typhy's referring when Rob was BoW Anarchy and CB'ed with BoW zak vs me and 5150 for our first official CB ever for BL.  We beat them and they were so offended of the loss, they disbanded their clan! Check out Poor Zak in denial (http://homepage.mac.com/akrapid/AKvsBoWgame5.jpg) ;D  I found that rather funny and laugh that Rob(Anarchy) still carries a grudge on that loss!  LoL!  Too bad Rob is so childish and doesn't know how to move on and act respectable, or we would be CB'ing having fun, rather than "typing away in a senseless arguement".  LoL, he also thinks he's better cuz he don't CB us ;D  

Rob, last night I did a 1v1 vs SiX.cybershark and I beat him 7-3 as well.  I have 1v1 Ejo, Tech9 and Rebel from KoS and defeated all of them.  I been asking KoS to CB lately that I been able to CB, and they been denying me with all the excuses Typhy mentioned and more.  Oh well, I don't really care, but just don't claim that we're the one when it's them that won't step up to the plate.

and back on track another good host is ROBS like stated way earlier before we had a nice little arguement.
