Someone mentioned it a couple weeks ago and I started noticing he was absolutely right about it. The Mixed HC server has a tendency to empty out a good bit when SnD comes up. Since SnD is on the bomb server, I would like to suggest the removal of it from the mixed server and I am sure many players who visit KN would agree, I think its because most players are not very patient, because in SnD you die, you waiting until a new round in order to get something going, to be quite frank it does become a pain in a rumpus at times. Me personally, I dunno if other players want it, like to see TDM put back into the rotation as well. thoughts? Edited by Crinus, Jun 4 2011, 05:05 PM.

I agree with Crinus on this one. S&D doesn't fit the pace of gameplay on the mixed server. I feel S&D is in a whole category of it's own. But how do you screw with a server that is ranked #1? That is the all important variable, although it might actually help keep it in number one. I have seen complaints when an objective HC server switches to HC TDM though. Especially since we already have a normal TDM server. I for one wouldn't mind seeing a server dedicated to HC TDM and HC FFA on rotation. How many servers is too many though? Would we have a problem keeping another server populated? That's how I felt about the Nuke server, but it has created a following of its own and is now in the top 20 also. The hardest server to populate seems to be the bomb server. I frequent it often (usually cause it has slots open) but it is also my least favorite. Is it hard to populate because of the new maps? I really like playing the new maps so I would hate to see us have no servers running the new maps. |

I dont know about TDM, I know it works well on some servers and its because players tend to only want to play TDM even in objective mode games. The Bomb server, I can understand the issue here, it is what it is, objective modes in which a objective is blown up, but the problem is a couple of these games are terrible, Sabotage and HQ for example are really messed up in this game, people really dont want to play them and it empties servers like SnD does on the mixed server. As for new maps, seeing the Mixed server become #1 just after the 2nd map pack release might be an indication that the majority of players in this game do not like the maps displayed in the map packs or they are not buying them, I know me personally cannot stand all but 1 map in the 1st strike pack, and Ive never took the time to even look at the 2nd map pack. But history has said paying for map packs has not really be successful when you have to pay for them either, like in MW2. But yeah, the Server may continue to stay #1 if SnD was removed, it became #1 last night right? I was on last night for a while and during that time I dont recall SnD coming up into play, this is assuming it was between 8 and 10 CST. |

The server has been climbing the rankings for the last few weeks. I wouldn't attribute it's climb with the release of the latest DLC. However, I would say that not running any DLC at all does help keep it populated. At one time, I also thought about removing S&D from the rotation, but I'm hesitant to change anything in a formula that seems to be working. |

I love SnD, but don't care for Sab. I guess too many like the run n gun style of play and actually being tactful doesn't fit their taste... I say keep it in there (so I can get in once in a while) or get a heavier dose of SnD in the Bomb server. I have seen some people question why HQ is in the Bomb rotation? I like HQ, so I don't mind. |

I don't mind S&D or SAB, the only problem I have with SAB is that 98% of the time it ends ridiculously fast because not everyone loads in fast enough (I do not have this problem) and then its like a 30sec game and those that are only running Duo Cores have to wait yet again for the next map to load. I only question the HQ in the rotation because its called "Bomb" server and HQ does not have a bomb in the objective, to me that seems like more a "Mixed" server rotation then in the bomb. That's just my two sense tho. Edited by GodzKnightz, Jun 12 2011, 11:08 AM.

Yesterday morning the bomb server was actually running on it's own. I was surprised. I love the bomb server though and even have a sick want to play SnD even though I bitch and moan about it too -.- my main problem with it is never getting to play the first round because I don't load in I'll have to do some pc rebuilding eventually, my old MB and processor isn't cutting it any more for what I do!I like HQ on the bomb server! I don't think I ever realized that though. No one seems to mind it though. Never seen that issue brought up in game. |

HQ is a really really retarded objective, its probably one of the worst modes where if I see it on the bomb server, or any other server where its in a rotation, I wont join it. Between the objective itself and where its placed, the spawns, and the fact its HC where Tking happens, it gets really irritating quickly, this is one mode where IMO has no place in this game at all. SnD, I can play it, have played it, have done well in it many times, my rant about SnD though is its not fast pace which alot of people come into the mixed server for, its a mode best on its own as said before, but if people want to win at this objective, you got problems of team stacking and the fact most maps are quite biased on attack and defend side, one example is lets look at Cracked or Hanoi, defending is a breeze on these maps and often the defending side wins, attack side is murder and usually results in a loss unless the teams are stacked to 1 side. But trutfully when you break it down, every objective is like thisin one way or another. Like in Domination for example, why the hell is point C and B close to each other on Villa and point A is so far away? Some places on Domination you need to capture the opposite point you start from in order to capture point B and to even have a chance at even attempting to win that game. But thats enough of the ranting. But I will say I hate HQ worse than anything ever made in this game. Edited by Crinus, Jun 12 2011, 01:43 PM.

I miss mods that let you change objective points in the maps. ![]() Maybe somebody will figure something out for us. |

Was they changed in previous COD games? I dont recall maybe because I played TDM just about the entire existence of COD. I just know the objective points in most game modes are poorly placed IMO. Hanoi CTF anyone? The one side with the Water Well, freaking impossible to really defend that point and once that flag is grabbed, you got numerous options to head with it making catching the runner impossible. |

Several mods for older versions of COD allow the change of objective points, and even created several new gametypes. I really do features that they have removed. It's a shame they've handicapped the game this way. |
