Looking to start up a UK based custom maps playing community - server provided.
My friends and I are looking to establish a TF2 custom maps community in the UK. We are aware that there are many servers out there that play custom maps, and there are many in the UK that do so.
We have however found the maps they play to not be to our taste, Hall of Death, Toytown, Mario Kart, to name a few, and we want to establish a community or at least just a server that plays quality custom maps a couple of nights a week and at weekends.
The trouble we have in getting our server off the ground is achieving critical mass. There's usually four of us, although I've been working on adding to that number, and hope to have about 6-8 of my steam friends on a regular basis on our game night to play quality custom maps, so we just need some more to achieve the critical mass that gets others joining the server.
What we want to know is if there are a group of friends or UK/Western Europe based players out there who also want a server to call home for playing quality customs on a regular basis. Players who want a say in the maps that are on the server and that are played.
I'm looking to join up with others to create a community/steam group based around a server playing maps like Cashworks, Furnace Creek, Halfacre, Swiftwater, Aurora, Outback, Repository, Glacier, Steel, Industrial, Waste etc
Basically the best customs to come out of the custom map scene. I don't want to play on a server where the users may vote for maps like Hall of Death, CP Orange etc.
In exchange for joining, I'll provide the server, I'll be open to map suggestions, we'll vote on maps to be added to the maplist; while playing, the maps will be decided by RTV and users nominate maps from the maplist to vote upon. I have a 1GB limit on my download server, which I estimate will allow me to have 20-24 custom maps on the rotation/cycle/map voting together with a few Valve maps.
Currently on the server:
Cashworks RC2, Furnace Creek B4, Halfacre, KotH_Aurora, Outback_RC2, Repository, Steel, Industrial B7, Koth Harvest, Koth Lighthouse RC5, Koth Garbage Day, Koth Moonshine V2, Koth Oilfield, Koth Waste, pl Waste.
I am open to changing some of those, for example, dropping a couple of the Koth's in favour of other maps if need be. I'll also be adding more maps once the custom particle problem is fixed (Glacier is a certainty, Vector, HAARP etc)
We usually play Tuesday and Thursday evenings during the week (we all work), and most Sunday afternoons into evening.
The name for the group/community/server can also be changed, at the moment I'm using "Miniature Heroes" but I am open to change and suggestions.
Would anyone be interested?
