Which Half-Life games need more servers? Created 1 year ago2023-02-12 01:30:45 UTC by MegaBrutal

I'm in the fortunate situation that I could run game servers. What do you think, which GoldSrc or Source games would benefit the most?

What I was thinking about so far:

• Half-Life Deathmatch
• Opposing Force DM / CTF (not sure which one)
• Sven Co-op
• Half-Life 2 Deathmatch
• Black Mesa

Any other ideas?

I would definitely side in favor of a Goldsource mod.

I would recommend looking into quality multiplayer mods, like Science and Industry, or maybe Bleach: Zanpakutou Senshi, that don't necessarily get a lot of attention. You'd probably need to get people to play on your server, asking them here is a good place to start. There's a list of mods on moddb: https://www.moddb.com/mods?filter=t&kw=&released=1&genre=&theme=&players=2&timeframe=&game=1&sort=visitstotal-desc

You could also change the mod every once in a while, see which ones "performs the best", so to speak.

I think Sven Co-op is doing okay in terms of servers, especially since it supports p2p. However, it would be great to have a server running maps from the TWHL community. It would give more incentive to mappers for individual projects and even competitions. And we could all play on it. By the way, did I mention I made a map for Sven Co-op ? 😇

It would be great to play Opfor CTF ! The only servers available on Opposing force are empty :/

But I agree with Loulimi that having TWHL servers would be great to make tests, play custom maps and create game events !

I mean, I thing the bigger issue is just the lack of players
