16-32 Player FFA and Team Games On Weekends

You also need connect buttons if you want to reconnect quickly and faster server browser to avoid the simple questions like spectators, radius, metal spots, halleys, etc.

I could see the game last night, I just couldn't join it, and when I joined as a spectator I couldn't see any units.

I will try again next weekend.

Thanks for hosting these @mikeyh, appreciate it

Will be hosting some more games on 29th May from 19:00 UTC / 12:00 PST / 30th 07:00 NZT.

Check PA Chat as games may depend on how the server disconnect issues affect custom servers.

Will be hosting some more games soon:

• 12th June from 21:00 UTC / 14:00 PST / 13th 09:00 NZT (check PA Chat)

Will be hosting some more big games this weekend prior to the Big Bang Finals starting 18th July 18:00 UTC / 11:00 PST / 19th 06:00 NZT (check PA Chat).

Server is online and will be hosting some games soon.

IT BEGINS!

moved to the titans forums on request

Will be hosting some big Titans games prior to Mystery Mayhem 22nd August 18:00 UTC / 11:00 PST / 23rd 06:00 NZT (check PA Chat)

Please UNINSTALL the Unlimited Players client mod if you have it installed.

The Faster Server Browser client mod is now required to join games and adds a PALOBBY CONNECT menu item to the start page when games are being hosted.

This replaces the connect buttons client mod which no longer works with Titans custom servers.

Currently hosting some big games to test out new server configs.

Switched back to Intel Xeon E3-1270 v3 @ 3.5GHz with 32 GB RAM and they are performing well:

Some stats from the 15 - 20 FFAs:

• peak RAM usage of 19GB
• peak network of 52Mbits/s
• peak CPU equivalent to 3 of 4 cores (6 threads)
• typically CPU bound on 2 cores

Would be great to try a Xeon E3-1281 v3 @ 3.70 GHz:

And after your game from yesterday?Slowmo, lag or anything with the 20 players on the same map?

Will be hosting some more games around the Clopsey 13 2v2 tournament:

Looks like 25 players is just too much when hosting these big FFA games? Maybe just have a max of 20 players joining in on the FFA so the quality of these games are assured to be good so people come back?

Also maybe you have to think about a max spectator amount since spectators also put a stress on the server performance. Depends on how much stress though and you know that the best.

I've already heard several people saying that they would not join because they're positive its gonna lag out (including me). If you can assure some good quality games then I think more people will keep coming. No one wants to play in time dilation.

I still think its awesome that you do this. Thanks for putting your time and money into this to get these kind of games up. It puts this game on another level.

All NW are agree with you Alpha. No more NW will join big games because after 5 - 10 min the game are just so laggy and unplayable... but I remember some fun team game 10 NW vs 10 others.

Last day you do a global invite on PAChat for a 20FFA, at the same time all NW who was on team speak say ' s: I dont want to join a laggy game...

I like to play biggest games but not with a lot of lag.

Imo I think a 50 player com boxing match with no metal on a small moon would be fun . Only metal is reclaimin dead Com's and bases.

Multi-threaded server is provisioning for a 20 FFA after 23:00 UTC / 15:00 PST / 12:00 NZT.
