Hi All,

Just letting you know I have rented a Section 8 Prejudice server from gameservers.com.. First one in South Africa they have been told..

I hope you enjoy it.. This is better than the first section 8.. I have been playing the international servers but they are obviously uber laggy so i thought stuff it.. lets get a local one going..

Let me know if you have any problems on the server. I will be setting up RCON'ing on it soon i hope.

Keep it real ;-)

UPDATE: Server is down for now.. Pending a small fix to the server code to improve 3rd party stats and status queries support

UPDATE++: Ok seems the fix wont come any time soon what with MWEB being in the state that it is, and even so, MWEB hosting is so DOG at the moment i doubt jamming will be any fun.. I am keeping the server shutdown until this whole fail blows over.

Here is the launch trailer for the game to give you a taste of what itsall about

OK WOOT and YAYNESS the server is up and running fine now :-D Indeed it's the first in the country and mweb is sorted enough to play on it :-)

IP:196.28.169.2:13000

I hope you guys enjoy.. Its a new game but I can add bots to the server if its not full enough. They pretty smart so its still fun to play.

EDIT: BOOO: Server down till tonight, sorry to the peeps wanting to play during the day.. 24/7 gametime should be achieved tonight :-D

So your hosting this off mweb uncapped? Im not o sure how your upload bandwidth capacity will support any more than 4 or 6 online without delay.
Great job though, atleast your trying something.
 
AFAIK this is hosted with gameservers.com so its the actually legit game, with a legit server :D

Hey MeisterLone, Im renting a server from gameservers.com. :)

lolz, yeah a 32 player server with a 8mb line is madness.. Unfortunatly the server is down for now but tonight should be the big night where everything is properly set up and ready for people to pwn.

Im hoping the server will be busy cuz i mean out of all the SA games there has to be atleast 24 that wanna play this game :p.. i hope :erm:

Thanks for the support dude

PS: For those of you keen on the upcoming Brink, I have pre-ordered a server for that too :-D

Mmmm, I'm really tempted to buy the game now, the only reason why I didn't was because we didn't have local servers and the game doesn't really have a huge following in SA, which is a shame because its actually an awesome game.

Will contemplate buying it a bit more, will wait for payday and make my decision, even if it is only $15 :)

Totally wicked dude. On a gaming site that I admin for, there are a bunch of folks who are keen to jam. Its my main reason I wanted to get a server. Of course it will be a public server. Oh and some Direct2Drive shops are selling the game for like $9 now :-P.. someone i know got it for R92 :p
 
Just Sharing my back and forth with gameservers.com so you guys know what happening and get a feel for their level of support.. Not the most impressed at the moment but they are atleast friendly i guess. Oh and lol guess you know my name now too..

Posted 05/10/11 1:10am 1) Please describe your problem:

Hi there, this server is taking ages to activate 10 hours+.. my black ops server took less than 10min.. are there any issues with this game at the moment or can you manually activate for me?

Posted 05/10/11 6:18am Please get this sorted out.. I don't want to be charged for time this server is not operational. As far as i know it takes an hour to set up a server.. not 20 hours. Please may i have some feed back. thank you

Posted 05/11/11 5:16am I just thought I should provide a bit more information to you as to what might be causing the problem. Mweb, your hosting partner in South Africa has been having some major network issues this last week.. In games like Black Ops, its down to a routing issue getting stats from overseas. Now im not sure how your content distribution works but if the server files for new games come from abroad they might be intensely slow thus long activation times. Im not sure if you are able to confirm this but I hope it helps you.

***

I decided to try another location to see if the server would activate any quicker, but to no avail..

Please get this sorted :-) If I could offer beer i would but yeah, I got lots of people wanting to play.

The black ops server is 100% by the way. Very happy with it

Please see ticket YBE-625IZ,

If this problem is not sorted out soon or if i don't get some actual feedback I would like to cancel my Section 8 server for a refund and I will try again at a later date. I find 17+ hours for feedback on such a matter unacceptable considering it is your bread and butter service....

Hello,

I checked your other ticket and it's in our lvl3 queue which our admins will get to shortly.

If you wish to cancel you'd have to open a billing ticket requesting the closing of the account.

You can wait until your other ticket is resolved and request credit towards your account for the downtime you've experienced with your server.

If you have any other questions please feel free to re-open this ticket.

Clive,

This is indeed correct. I started a transfer to the machine before my last reply here and it has been timing out/corrupting. I am afraid moving the server only complicated the issue.

I am attempting another transfer, however. Of course, we will adjust your next invoice date to credit you for the time spent without a server.

Please be patient. We will give you another update when one becomes available.

Care to share which Direct2Drive shop? I'll definitely grab it for $9, that's a bargain :)
 
so, just to clarify, you guys think this game is a good value team-shooter? hmmm... might have to investigate this now that we have a good server available :) thanks Shebam!

Yeah its a great shooter for the dosh hey..

As for the server, it may be up and it may be down.. mweb and gameservers.com have been giving me an uphill battle to get it functioning perfectly.. its not appearing in the server browser most of the time yes gameservers promise me it is online and mweb say nothing is wrong their side so i dont know.. I have support tickets with both companies so when it is 100% sorted I will be posting here to let peeps know.

Sorry for messing people around but im doing my best.. just waiting on others to actually give me some service. :(
 
OK the server is up and i have played on it to test! please enjoy and sorry for the long wait!! :-)

It is called Super Awesome Server :p and should be the first one in the server browser

See you okes there Woop Woop

To find the server easily, go to conquest, and filter by clan tag.. the clan tag you are looking for is RIG

Peace
