If you want a good server with many players you need friends to play in it to get people to join.. It needs to have rank and the ones that are the fullest are 24/7 FY_iceworld maps and the Fy_iceworld respawn servers...
As said before dont have sound download it is a pain.. Make it fast make sure you have a good connection and a good server and as said before you need friends that is the only way to have a successful server..
We have a clan server -=[47R]=- 24/7 Dust2 and Office and those maps seem to be the most popular... it is full 3/4 of the time day or night it doesn't really matters its normally full. To tell you what makes it full is simple NO AWP/ Auto if your looking for normal pub style play because that just makes it really lame when everyone buys awps no one likes that. it also attracts a lot of skilled players too. Mani mod is a must if you want to be an effective admin as our server has it and I couldn't do 1/2 the things i wanted in time w/out it just because of the time to type it all out.
[QUOTE="Swedish_Wolf"]Whatever you do dont have any custom sounds. Very annoying when you have to download 15+ sound clips on servers before you can play. J4y_97I second that. Dont have downloads at all cept betmod! I cant find any servers where I dont have to dl 20mins of complete crap.
these days, its harder to find a decent rotation server than it is to find one thats heavily modded. im sick of zombies, gungame, custom maps, and all that other crap. also, no 24/7 Dust of Office, there are hundreds of those servers out now, nobody ever plays Port, or Inferno or other great maps, because its either Dust/Dust2/Office or some other random mod.hoketYea I know thats why I quit noone plays any good maps Dust and office got old!
no need to have 100tickrate, 66 is nearly as good with much less bandwidth and therefore cheaper to run. Honestly you'd be best to run, dust, dust2 and office in a cycle to get the most players as that's the only map people play, assault maybe in the rotation too. Stats would be nice, betting is sometimes fun, definately include votemap, votekick I think mani has that yes?nutcrackrMani has that and yes Assault is nice for a mix.. I actually play in a 24/7 assaultserver daily iit has 20+ players just about 24/7
only have 16 people, anymore it just ruins the game. no custom sounds.
I'd say allow the AWP and make it true CS but im sure many would disagree.
I'm former competitive player and consider myself rather good at source, I only play on servers that have DWP off and have banned the AWP. The AWP used to be not an issue but it has become an overused and largely annoying excuse for the worst style of team play ever. I also like it when the players left alive are slayed for not completing objectives because that keeps away the all about me players too.
Good luck, the CS community can sometimes eat their own so I hope it works out
I only play on servers with the map Office. I only play source. I always listen to the in-game radio channels!(Frag FM... FTW)! I play on minimum 32 player servers. prefere over 40.
I really dont give a crap about AWP. I try to deal with it, even though it gets me killed. I never use AWP tho.

Add this to your autoexec.cfg if you dont want to download sounds: cl_downloadfilter "nosounds"
Does it work? if so it would be very nice.
It's funny how there are people that worship CS yet at the same time flame people who use AWP as it is "imbalanced"... If people love this game so much they are supposed to love every part of it, including those parts they "can't deal with".

I agree with the AWP/Auto comment. Either limit it to one or two per team or take it out completely. God damned awps are so unbalanced - one hit kill from a mile away while hiding behind some crates.

What do you think about the last player alive in a round is an awper hiding all the way in the dark corner of a map, not proceeding to the objective? Gets pretty annoying. If you're a bad ass awper try using the scout. I have nothing but respect for players who are good at using scouts.

You know it's actually easier to hit people using the scout, the bullet goes straight where the crosshair would be even if unscoped while standing still whereas for AWP it's random unless you scope.
How can people say the weapon is unbalanced, it is more expensive than the scout, therefore it is better. Without the AWP cs isn't cs.

Thanks, possible to do the same with liek admins player models that some server has?
OK, it's up. The IP is 208.100.14.228:27015.
It's 16 player, FF on, DWP off, just Mani (and no crazy TK punish stuff), and the map rotation is dust2, italy, office, inferno, port, assault, nuke, train, and aztech. (Though not in that order.) We may put some CPL maps on later.
We're thinking about putting some mods on occasionally, like maybe a "deathmatch Friday." :)
