I'll take Niefelheim if you can get your server working.

I think I have taken control of Niefelheim. Server is acting very weird though. I locked up on me after I selected my nation.

Are noobs allowed, or would I just get smoked? I've never played MP before, but I'm ready to get started.

kruton, just join, omg.

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Actually, not to rain on your game Argitoth, but I would recommend against this game for a true newbie. The settings are *all over the place*. Starting out in MP against experienced players in a normal game would be difficult enough, if doable. Trying to factor in the effects of these changes in addition to that? I don't think you would walk away with a positive MP experience, kruton.

(I would join this game--I like the idea of different styles of games--but with 27 provinces per player, easy research, indies at 9, magic at 75...I see this racing to end-game practically before anyone meets anyone else, which is not the way I like to play. ; )

Oh really? Did you read the first post when I said "Game settings are negotiable?"

Hmmm.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/yawn.gif

Lingchih March 3rd, 2008 03:50 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
I ran a single player test game with these settings. It was interesting. I was using triple-blessed Niefel Jarls, and was able to break out against the indies, but it would probably be very frustrating for people using standard troops. The AI could barely even gain a few provinces early on.

AdmiralZhao March 3rd, 2008 05:49 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Yeah, I ran through the first 10 turns and it was a bit different. The light infantry + archer provinces were not that bad, but the calvary and barbarian provinces certainly could be. I'm looking forward to this game, but I don't think it will be friendly to people who have not yet perfected the art of killing indies.

Argitoth March 3rd, 2008 06:04 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
oh lol, yeah, that's where the noob would fail.

Game is starting, upload pretender!
New game settings: 20 provinces per player

Argitoth March 4th, 2008 01:04 AM

SERVER HAS STARTED

Real_friend March 4th, 2008 10:17 AM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
How does it work, this server? Everybody made their move. Buut the next turn is generated by the serves. Is it right to wait next 28 hours , not to speedup?

Argitoth March 4th, 2008 01:04 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Once everyone takes their turn, the new turn is generated. That is what Quickhost means.

Xavier March 4th, 2008 01:21 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
we're waiting on wazooking....

would sure be nice to get a couple turns a day in for the first 10 or 15 turns....

Argitoth March 4th, 2008 07:20 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Hmm... shoulda made it 24 hour hosting for the beginning... that wazooking better take his turn soon.

Xavier March 4th, 2008 08:44 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
saw him connected just now...and then disconnected before taking his turn? hopefully he comes back soon.... it should only take like 2 minutes to play the first turn :p

edit: nm, turn hosted http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Wazooking March 4th, 2008 08:51 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Just finished. I like to disconnect and play it offline so i dont accidentally press e when recruiting.

Argitoth March 4th, 2008 09:27 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
yes, defintely a good idea wazooking.

AdmiralZhao March 5th, 2008 10:11 PM

Come on, isn't anyone going to show the mercenaries some love? They have children to feed you know.

Xavier March 5th, 2008 10:17 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
heh, i been thinking that too. if i'd known there wasn't going to be any competition for them I probably would've built around using them more, but as it is it's national armies all the way....

Xavier March 6th, 2008 01:25 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Please patch at some point today, so I don't have to create another copy of dom3 when I put up a 3.15 server tonight....

Real_friend March 8th, 2008 09:39 AM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Oh guys. It looks like I have to go to Izrael tomorrow for , and I'm just learned my internet will be limited by email.
Probably have to give-up this game, will stay only on Llamabeasts' email-based server games.

Real_friend March 8th, 2008 09:41 AM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Or -is it possible if I will sent 2h turns?

Real_friend March 8th, 2008 09:41 AM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
and recieve trn?

Argitoth March 8th, 2008 12:45 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Real_friend, it's really annoying when you make 3 posts in a row, use the edit button.

Everyone vote HERE!

AdmiralZhao March 8th, 2008 01:01 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
I would vote for replacement or computer control.

Sorry to see you go, Friend.

Xavier March 8th, 2008 04:08 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
maybe post looking for a replacement, see if anyone bites?

Argitoth March 8th, 2008 07:57 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Anyone who wants to join, the game is open until all the original players upload their pretender again.

Lingchih March 8th, 2008 09:55 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Niefelheim pretender re-uploaded.

Argitoth March 9th, 2008 01:10 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
*bump*


WE NEED MORE PLAYERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lingchih March 9th, 2008 04:40 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
We could play with five, but more would definitely be better. Someone else is bound to stale out at some point. This game still looks like fun, with the crazy settings. But never, ever restart a game in progress, unless the game has some serious, unfixable problem. People don't like it.

Argitoth March 10th, 2008 12:41 AM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Xavier March 10th, 2008 05:26 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
let's get this show on the road - it really doesn't look like we'll be getting any more players any time soon....

Argitoth March 10th, 2008 05:30 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Xavier votes start.

Argitoth March 10th, 2008 06:05 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
game started.

Lingchih March 10th, 2008 09:59 PM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
Well, there some benefits to only having five players. That first turn went pretty quickly. We might even get in another one tonite.

Argitoth March 11th, 2008 01:52 AM

Re: Fun House Server - Not Started (Join NOW!)
 
I'm just glad I regenerated the map. The first map, I could tell, was going to be really lame. Oh, and it's 25 provinces per player instead of 20.
