Server Passwords

[Kvatcharoonie]

So far out of 24 people who did the poll 88 percent want to see a password feature in War of Rights.
https://www.strawpoll.me/17774600 I'll keep this up for another couple days.

I am not surprised by the stubbornness of the developers. We knock on the wall, which only answers the same thing. However, I want to say that the whim of one man or the minority will not become an obstacle for the logical implementation of the right to hold private games with password, to avoid uninvited guests (trolls or anyone else who wants to shit) and not to spoil mood neither myself or anyone anymore. I agree with the officers, who convinced the developers that this is a logical step that does not cause damage in any prospective version of future events. If you can't understand that two chairs are not enough to sit on, then I bring bad news. My rhetoric is aggressive because I'm angry. Angry because I've been missing events for too long. Do you want to have more players? IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO REGULARLY UPDATE THE GAME? Making it more stable and interesting, not arguing with officers about server passwords. You made a big deal out of it. I'll be at the front of the strike. For you do not want dialogue. Very unwise of you, but it's better to add blood. Certainly.

You should see their discord. fastyes.gif

The topic should be renamed to reflect the true intention which is an orchestrated attempt to strong arm the devs into Alpha passwords because a few select people are only paying for servers for exclusive events but simultaneously are way too proud to cancel them for unit prestige and therefore grow more furious by the month caught in that conundrum. I for one am excited to pay even more monthly for a 200 slot server without a password.


I like Labelle. He has a lot of passion and I like some of his points on passwords. It's definitely cause for a moment for reflection each time renewing the server the fact that the admin controls are pretty rudimentary. Also today I was testing some things on myself and a whole bunch of people came in because the other server crashed. It was annoying because I would have to kick them out or really annoy them while testing. If I had a password, that wouldn't have happened. They would have gone to a different server. But since I was 1/150 and the rest were 0/150 or drill maps they came to mine.

You should see our Discord, it's very nice.

Quite the reach you have there, I like it. It has moxy. However, I can assure you that Raider and our friendly neighborhood Slav here haven't discussed the issue with us at all. We're all just really passionate about server passwords these days.

Ive cast my vote. Keep it up and we'll see what the numbers say. I want to see this poll spread across the community. Poll all of us, or at least the vast majority of us.

If two hours of locked serves kills this "game" that's not even out of ALPHA FUCKING TESTING where the TESTING is being conducted this game will never reach a successful release.

I mean.. okay..

First you get angry because we are spending time discussing the suggestions with you guys (that is dialogue) and not updating the game.

You then go on stating we do not want dialogue - you're entirely in the wrong there. Me entering the discussion, laying out our doubts for all to see and pick at even made some people state that we think TOO MUCH about possible issues.

You just countered your own points.

Not sure I understand your last sentence - it could be seen as a sort of threat which I hope it isn't.

To allow regiments to be able to police their own servers, admins should be able to set a password on their lobbies as well as have full admin rights such as blacklisting. Literally every game has that ability, and not being able to do this can be pretty frustrating.

Wait . . . Really? I don't mean to intrude upon your happiness, but there is something you might consider:

1.) G-Portal's "per-slot" monthly price for a WoR server is based on the game's usage of the server/host CPU.
2.) For the past months, the WoR developers have amazingly reduced the game's usage of the server/host CPU.
3.) Yet, despite the reduction in CPU usage, G-Portal's "per-slot" monthly prices haven't changed to my knowledge.

^ Think about this very carefully and ask yourself if you are still happy to be paying more.

If we ever officially increase the player cap to 200 we will try to pressure G-Portal into giving that up for free - no promises though.

The main reason the servers are expensive is because no other game runs on the machine hosting the WoR server (at least not the 150 player servers).

I definitely don't like hour count bans. I've had remarkably few problems (and players) on my server but permanent bans are definitely useful. The interface doesn't make it easy. I don't know how many hours go into permanent. Some folks you can tell need that.

Ehh . . . I don't wish to intrude upon your happiness, Poorlaggedman, but there is something you might consider:


1.) G-Portal's "per-slot" monthly price for a WoR server is based on the game's usage of the server/host CPU.

2.) For the past months, the WoR developers have commendably reduced the game's usage of the server/host CPU.

3.) Yet, despite the reduction in CPU usage, G-Portal's "per-slot" monthly prices haven't changed (to my knowledge).


^ Reflect upon this logical contradiction and ask yourself if you are still happy about what you pay to G-Portal.

But they're technical support is soooo good.

My English very bad, but this not a dialogue. If you want to discuss with officers, you need write your arguments that are backed by substantial evidence. From officers I see such statements. At least based on the experience of Napoleonic Wars and North and South. The updates I would like to see is stability. Implementing new game modes or maps is secondary to me personally, but why can't you understand that everyone has different priorities? Make different modes for players who do not join the regiments, and we just, just give the passwords to the server. It's not an over-the-top request that causes too much controversy, which it shouldn't have become at all. I'm angry. I spent the whole day watching the forum all day. And I see you're just being stubborn.

If you want a dialogue, we have to talk in equal positions. And in such a situation, we can only demand. My last messages could make it clear that I only want passwords, and in turn I was advised to ban or kick players who prevent me from organizing events. In your opinion, how should I react to this? Why did you come up with the crutches? It's a rhetorical question. And in the search for the common truth we will come only to what is easier
