Old player here, came back to maybe get back into trading/ community.

I have impulse rented a 24 slot server hosted in Chicago, my whim is to upload my old trade/idle map and throw a half ass donate menu plugin in there and maybe see if I can recoup what I once had.

I don't see this being the best way of doing things.

What servers ARE needed right now? I know if I look at trade servers, 9/10 have 0/32 and 1/10 have 32/32

So what gamemode would you think the TF2 community could use an extra server running it?

I don't know if I got my point across, I am super tired.

Unfortunately, the biggest community servers are probably Slender Fortress, Freak Fortress/Versus Saxton Hale, x10, Zombie, and Custom Weapon servers because of Muselk.

viper24/7 badwater pub

only good 24/7 badwater server is skial, and the only problem with that is that it's in LA so a chicago/eastern badwater pub would be so nice

Wow, thank you guys for all the feedback, I was expecting to get on here today and have a bunch of pessimists telling me the market for TF2 servers is already oversaturated.

So, I think I'm gonna do either 24/7 harvest or 24/7 badwater (or a 24/7 Badwater/ Harvest)

Run bots?
sv_pure to 1 or 2?
Any must have gameplay fixer plugins or anything? Is sourcemod a nono on an actual gameplay server?

I used to run a couple idle/ trade servers that did quite well. I don't know anything about payload servers lol

Please don't do bots.

I like badwater way more than Harvest, but a 24/7 Harvest/Badwater rotation would be sweet.

Post the ip here if you decided to get it up and running, I'll add it to my favorites!

awesome, thanks man

you should try and get a hold of an admin on tftv and have them add your server to the pub servers section of the server list so it gets more exposure

yeah because we sure need another one of those, especially when there's 25+ that sit empty for multiple hours a day

idk why he didn't just advertise the server with a steam group or at least get it added to the pubs list on the server section of tftv

People don't like bots, but I think most people would rather play in a server with 8 bots than play in a server with no one. Its probably one of the reasons that skial fills.

skial is also a highly advertised and marketed pub community with multiple, multiple servers spanning gamemodes, maps, and regions
