Armagetron Forums

I've made a few changes with the authorities based on your config. Let me know if you think of anything. Let me know where the file is, and I will check it. Also, I would like us, after the ladle, to come up with a mutually acceptable name, brand it as a Ww server, if that is ok, and make it a true...

This is a great idea. Back in the early days of the Ladle, to get more people into it, Epsy, a dev, implemented a 4 man fortress Tournament. The physics changes you propose would have made it a better experience.I will donam\te a server with my new VPS that i am setting up right now. If you look, I ...

That rZ victory was special to me! I was never part of rZ, but when Zero first started playing Fortress with his buds, I came in and taught them some of the basics, every week when they would practice. Of course, I had no involvement once they got good, but it was kinda like seeing a kid you helped ...

You could always add me on Facebook, Gene Bernstein, Valley View, Ohio. Just let me know in a friend request that you are R Noodles, and I will accept, and then you can messenger me anytime. I couldn't agree more with Z-man in regards to how things are on Steam, from what I have read and seen. I do ...

What's needed is a full strategy, not just individual but uncoordinated actions. Armagetron used to rank for any tron game searches on the first page in the first 5 results, because of the backlinks that had naturally been built over the years. A new website with carefully chosen title tags and h1 t...

If you pour through the old topic that Johnny posted, you will see that the challenge is not to get Armagetron on steam. That can be done. The challenge is to create a marketing plan to get attention. I will post more on the idea of a marketing plan later..... Marketing is what I do nowadays.

Aww, thanks for the compliment, Agility. My fondest memory is shortly after I started playing online, Manta (Ww) put up the fortress Shootout. I LOVED it. I would go in there every day, shooting Ai's and waiting for people to come. We had huge games there. Then, one evening DLH came in and was defen...

Added github: feature-fortress-ai mirrors lp:0.4-armagetronad-fortress_ai which is derived from lp:trunk-armagetronad-fortress_ai. That's the experimental fortress AI. I mostly abandoned it because at one point, merging from the mainline became a nightmare. Now that the branch is converted, I disco...

I am glad to hear that you are trying to achieve a healthy balance in your life. Of course, I am looking forward to your contributions. Slowly, there are small but significant numbers of us coming back to the game and noobs starting to play. The player base may have shrunk, but there are still activ...

why not promote it in-game and on the forums, but tweak it to fit the current state of the game. Maybe have signups to play and for team leaders and the day of the brawl, pick teams either based on who shows up or randomly.

I agree wholeheartedly. However, I am looking at a map specifically for 4v4 and noob friendly, if noobs came into a server and the spawns were in front of the zone, the non-grinders would not screw up the game so much for everybody. Also, by making the whole map smaller, especially the lateral direc...

That sounds perfect! What do you think of changing the map and possibly spawns.

I think we all need to thank Light for basically taking over some things the devs have not had time to manage. The wiki, the Resource Repository, and much more. Without the wiki and Resource Repo Working, this game would really be dying right now, but with them both working we have a chance to keep ...

So, thanks to Light's work we have a working Wiki and one tournament fully planned! Back when Fortress was going through a lull period, Epsy organized a 4v4 Tournament. It would probably be easier to get teams of 4 going. And if we do it bi-weekly for a short time, that may get people actually playi...

If you want to do a brawl, that is the settings in the Ww CTF server. However, for the day of the Brawl, I will put up a tournament server to accommodate better team management settings for the server.
After this we have to do a CTFS Tournament! That server is working well too.
