Syndicate Server question for the owners

[kaboki]

Love this server and I have excellent ping my only problem with this server is that it is almost always full:D.

 

Is it possible to increase the player limit to 60 just like the Eagles Nest server? I enjoy the Eagles Nest also, but the ping isn't the best for me and when it's empty I have no other place to go... I know this is a luxary problem as I used to play ROF and there the issue was empty servers and only some days of the week I could find a decent populated server and it is basicly the reason I stopped playing ROF(air quake is mostly populated in ROF but not what I was intrested in).

I agree.

Also, I ended a flight a little bit ago in the server and I wasn't able to spawn back in. I left the server and it said it was full. I hope the BoS devs fix that, it happens in every server.

We are testing ATM and need to increase player slots based on stability. We will increase the slots soon enough

Just want to remind everyone that the current version of the dedicated server is a bit buggy and causing servers to show on the list as full or populated when they are really not...they're in a hung state. If you constantly see servers that are populated at odd hours with zero variation in people connecting/disconnecting (example: 51/51 for hours past prime time) the server is most likely showing phantom connections and not actually hosting anything.

 

This goes the same for the official servers as well. EU normal has been showing 27 people connected for about 11 hours now and is not accepting new connections (kicking you back to server list upon connection attempt).

Just anecdotal, personal experience here, but everytime our server has been full I've always managed to get on within the first three attempts.  Maybe I've just been lucky all those times...   Now, I have heard people say they spent a 1/2 hour+ trying to get on, and doubt they would exaggerate too much, but that has not been my experience and I'm in N.America and the server is in Holland. 

 

Many people have SSD's for the OS and then put their games on regular spinning drives, but I've put my flight sims on the SSD for faster loading and it seems to help with getting on servers quickly and grabbing a spot when one does eventually open up, and they do.
