Andy867 Posted February 25, 2004 Author Posted February 25, 2004 I only experienced Lag on servers were the players were jerking off by setting down like 100 explosives and setting them all off, other than that I had perfect gaming experience with it. (my 30:1 kill ratio should help )
bleh Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 I find that there are still very few servers that host this map. Most all that do have a password restriction... bummer Oh but it is SO fun Hopefully next we'll see some canyon-skirting action ala ? Or some reactor-blasting ownage from ? Maybe even a more accurate Hoth map (an actual battle on a battlefield, not in a large canyon), complete with ? I wouldn't be surprised. Now that the vehicle tuts are out, expect to see a rush of new map experiences. Recreations of famous Star Wars battles! Oh, teh w00t of it all!
sup3rsnail Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Dammit, I got in a game finally, I go and get into a ship, it's about to go through the red thing, and i get Cl_flush entity packet error type thing...>.<.... Okay, I joined another server and i spawn, and after a 1 minute, It gives me the error "Illegible server message"?!?!?!?! GOD DAMN!...Now I just joined another server and it says Cl_ParsePacketEntities! RAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!11 Somebody help
Andy867 Posted February 25, 2004 Author Posted February 25, 2004 Are you using any kind of NO-CD patch/crack or anything?
sup3rsnail Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Well, I'm using a no cd crack. Bleh, I knew I was forgetting something when i applied it. x.X I suppose I need to reinstall the game now?
Andy867 Posted February 25, 2004 Author Posted February 25, 2004 probably, unless you can still use the uncracked jamp.exe file.
sup3rsnail Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Meh, My game doesn't like vehicle oriented maps very much. I can usually never stay in a map specifically made for vehicles for more than 10 minutes. It really sucks. Anyways, I'm just gonna reinstall it and see what happens.
manoman81 Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 OK, so after playing on a couple servers (including one that had Andy and Chang in there [go ahead Chang...keep laughing]) i have to say that this is probably the one mod that I have had the most fun on!!! The only thing that could make this better is to somehow pair up with a wingman and have that person show up on the radar as another color...I'm not a modder or mapper so I dont know if that is possible, but it would be cool AWESOME JOB RAVEN CREW AND EVERYONE THAT HELPED WITH THIS!!!!!!!!
sup3rsnail Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Pretty fun map. It's the first vehicular-combat-map that i haven't crashed in at all! Downside is, All the servers i've been in lag like a bastard.
Godzilla Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Pure awesomeness. It can be laggy sometimes like all maps, but all in all with about 10 players with DSL/cable, this map kicks butt! Download right now if you haven't. Asteroids has a large pair of shoes to fill! (Sorry Andy867. )
Neverhoodian Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 This is a great Siege map. The ship balance is pretty good. It's awesome to finally see space combat properly implemented in JA. On the downside, there was a lot of lag on the servers I went to. Maybe I was just unlucky.
KPM Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 I really like this map, I could play it all day, the only thing I found annoying was the objective messages, they go off alot, and each time one comes up it gets in the way of the crosshair, I found it very distractive.
ChangKhan Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Originally posted by manoman81 [go ahead Chang...keep laughing] MUHAHAHAHAHAWWW!
bleh Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Originally posted by ChangKhan[RAVEN] MUHAHAHAHAHAWWW! You only got such an amazing score because you made the map
ChangKhan Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Originally posted by Cataphract_40 You only got such an amazing score because you made the map Actually, Mike Majernik (Zero-Logic) made the map... but I did a lot of the vehicle code, so I've had a lot of practice...
SpaceButler14 Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Wow, I'm pretty surprised they're trying to make up for the whole lack of support fiasco. I guess I'll not rule out buying from them in the future, however cautiously.
Andy867 Posted February 25, 2004 Author Posted February 25, 2004 And to think this is only the beginning of quality Siege Maps... Oh and Chang, you should be glad I didnt have my A-WING!!!!!! Spacebutler ----> Lack of support? Chang and the other guys have been working hard to not only give us the Bonus Mappack, plus one of the fastest patches for a Jedi Knight game, but also a SIEGE map, and the guys are helping on Asteroids, and who knows what they are up to in Madison, WI....
SpaceButler14 Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Well, the lack of a working server browser and the corresponding lack of playable mutliplayer. After quite some time of not being able to find games to join I found out what was wrong with it. (Apparently using the server browser means I'm a noob). Then there were the serious ati issues and other bugs, (note: nothing to do with gameplay adjustments). Then after a long time thinking they'd fix it as a last resort I posted an unhappy, but polite, post on the raven forums, at which point the moderator and a few others flamed me. I was then banned. I sent a polite email to raven about how I'd been a loyal customer but felt the lack of support, and the boards, made it so that I wouldn't buy from them in the future. The pr guy emailed back asking for some more info, and then never responded afterwards.
SlapNut Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 dam u activision! u stole my idea, ive been talking about that type of seige for months and u dont give me credit...meh
Andy867 Posted February 25, 2004 Author Posted February 25, 2004 Actually, this map has been finished since like June of last year... This was the bottom of the cutting rom floor map that everyone kept talking about. And then nothing was said of it, and now its out, along with a SIEGE Vehicle Tutorial
Dr_night Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 I was just playing this map under the name Zoidberg, it's AWESOME, but the rebels need to be able to sspawn randomly around the star destroyer, all the ties fire in one spot, killing the rebels before we can turn. (by the way, andy, manquesa, great game!) Team members: "Red 1-5, standing by." Team leader: "Red Leader, standing by." Me(zoidberg): "Red lobster, standing by. Woopwoopwoopwoopwoop!" EDIT: Also, the rebels loosing cutscene was hilarious!
Andy867 Posted February 25, 2004 Author Posted February 25, 2004 Yea that was fun.. Changkahn and I had a person vendetta, on each other:) But listed below are some of the servers hosting Siege Destroyer that I felt were the most stable *but not perfect just yet* °FUNServer°: 64.246.58.193:29070 [JSA] Jedi Academy Server: 69.57.141.214:29070 -/337-Siege Destroyer-OC48: 66.135.33.99:29070 {JE} Default CTF Server|125ms|216.12.201.206:29070 Others will definitely sprout up, but the main thing to keep in mind is to make sure that you dont set the sv_maxclients and sv_maxrate to a # that your server simply cant support. Like I know my server can only handle 6 people at 6000 rate. so I wouldnt go any higher than that.
Manquesa Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Originally posted by AIVAS (by the way, andy, manquesa, great game!) Cool, it's nice to see familiar people from the forums on these servers to play against (or with). great game yourself.
SlapNut Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 the asteroids mod trailer looks susspiciously like this seige map i recon
tFighterPilot Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 What's next? The attack on the Death Star? The attack on the Control Ship from ep1? The options are only limited by the fact that no server will have them
