SA-MP Server - 54.38.156.202:7777 => General => Topic started by: Rudy[PL] on January 28, 2011, 06:27:04 PM

Today I saw a scary number of 5 players on LW.
I would like, anybody who have some time and likes LW to advertise it on forums in your country. I already made some adverts on Polish ones.
To admins: Could you talk to sa-mp team to re-make the "Official servers" list in sa-mp and put LW there? That would help very much I think.
-
Not going to happen, even if all server owners asked i spose. ;)
-
SA-MP Development is going more towards RP from what I can see right now. I don't think they care too much about DM servers anymore.
-
Rudy, we have noticed it a long time ago. All we can do is improve the gameplay (wait for v4), advertise and be nice to new players :P

At what hour did you see the server with only 5 players? I have seen it having 25 or 30 players these last days.
And about the Official list, forget about it. If a server wants to attract players, what it has to do is to improve itself, which includes what Miczi said: be nice to new players. But not to use an unfair Official list.
-
From what I suppose the server won't be on its old standards anymore - people are now joining the servers with most players on, not any with 20 players, just to test. :-X
But not to use an unfair Official list.

What's so funny? :o
Whats funny is that your talking about unfair, when basicly nothing in life is supposed to be fair just take a good long and hard look at life m8 and youll see nothing is fair let me just point out the wikileaks thingy where a shitload of documents where released. So yea. Dont talk about fair or unfair when u dont even have the slightest clue what you mumbling on about.
Also theres nothing unfair about officials list as servers are paying for it to be on that list.

1. The hosted list is not the same as the old official list.
2. There's really no point ranting on about how life isn't fair.
3. Everything in life is supposed to be fair, thats what fair means.
-
sure splatterpuss thats what they all want you to believe that life is supposed to be fair lol.

True: if they cared about dm, they would be ashamed of still not having fixed joypad autoaim and Hydra missiles' sync after more than 5 years of Samp existence and countless versions released.
-
Now that you all know it Joypad autoaim is not useful its shit.
You can only hit pings<50 (and this only sometimes) with rw and you are a easy target with a joypad because everyone can hit u with one shit by the autoaim the others get if a joypad user aims...
Well you can deagle with it people with a ping<200 but is it that worth that u cant fight rw ?
Joypad is useless .

Yeah, and indeed this all is why I say that Samp developers should have fixed this problem long long time ago. I would like to be able to use joypad on foot without putting myself in an even bigger disadvantage, but unfortunately I can't so I have to use my mouse, against my will.
.
-
Honestly gryphus, you do anything that gives u a disadvantages but when you get some usefull advice from someone whos been playing SAMP and LW for example far longer than you have you just say but but i cant do that I WANT to use joypad. Seriously learn to aim with mouse its alot easier than using joypad. When u aim with joypad you can easily get killed because the people that use a mouse will have a lock on you aswell and will be able to kill you fast.
All the time you post the same stuff but in a different way. You got alot of advice from serveral people yet you refuse to take it and use it. Been this way since the start so now ill just suggest to everyone to just ignore your posts/threads/topics and boycott your every action. You might find that discriminating and against your rights or something but guess again you dont have any rights when it comes to LW or internet for that matter. If an admin sees fit they will correct you in the disciplinairy way that they see fit. For examply they might ban you from forum or ingame. The rights that you got here on forum and LW are the rights the admin team gives you other than you have got nothing.
So yea boycott him if u dont like him guys. I know i will. Been goin on far to long now and everyone seems tired of you gryphus so if u wanne help out and do LWs a favour just leave and never come back.

Mannnzzzz
give each other a break, thought this was advertising topic, u can discuss ur fairness conventions elsewhere.
Better get ur ass up and do something for promotin lolz
Currently im on exams right now, but i have almost whole march free time so i gone think about making some things for promo then, maybe i can design some banners for ya.
Also had some good ideas for a promo vid in the past, but would require loads of players working together coordinated, which i think is barely possible to realise (i think that because i saw ppl which - even after the third request to stand still - ran around ruining events, and werent only stoppable by freezing all players)
Anyways thumbs up for the advertising idea and for LW's itself <3
PS may we do some Merchandising then :) Selling Popz action figures and NAM-coffee-cups xD

Nice signature Enzo :) and btw, WOW your kill ratio is even lower than any of mines!!! you broke my record!!!
And btw, me saying that I would like to aim with joypad on foot doesn't mean that I'm currently doing it, I aim with mouse indeed.

well about what rudy said that there was only 5players online at lw, i heard that when those new games cod,bf,css or w.e came out most of ppl stopped with samp, lvp is even more empty than lw
-
i heard that when those new games cod,bf,css or w.e came out most of ppl stopped with samp
total bs, more and more players play sa:mp - but not on the servers they used to play on before

True, DM is out-of-date

To tell the truth all those high end games in my opinion are garbage, Some are fun. But seriously, has anyone played the same game for at least a yr, without getting bored. Ive played SA-MP for many years, and i mean i do get bored sometimes. But i still don't get bored, when i play it compared to any of the high end games with the great graphics. Even with the low player count i still have fun, and i like to make it fun. Just my two cents.

Yeah, but this is because Samp is like having several games in one. Which reminds me what I already said other times about how servers (not only LW, but in general) should unleash all the possibilities of the game: dm, races, helicopters, planes, tanks, boats, trucks, jetpacks, miniguns, explosives, RC vehicles, etc. Something that would be possible with minigames, parallel worlds or by mapping special islands on the oceans.

You Do Realize LW has had all the ones (or have had), that i have in bold?

Man don't be ridiculous: what does LW have for helis, apart from helikilling? there are no scripts for heli combats, heli races or heli transport missions (http://forum.littlewhiteys.co.uk/index.php/topic,14144.0.html), to name only 3 examples, and same for the rest of vehicles that I mentioned. Tanks are only available on some ingame Saturdays and usually only last for a ridiculously short time (sometimes just a few seconds). Boats? there are no Predators for example, and even if there were, they still lack scripts for them. Explosives? are you kidding me? there are no explosives (like grenades and rocketlaunchers) in the server!!! RC vehicles? what else apart from an expensive RC heli in City Planning Department? Minigames? there are absolutely no minigames in LW!!! Parallel worlds? only duel arena has them. Special islands on the oceans? only a few, and only used for events!

hmmm this is useless i guess...
When u join as a new player u get teamkilled by 3 regulars or more ...
You got no chance to start playing here because u get flamed and killed ...
I guess no one will play here if it goes like this ...
And there is no way to stop this ..
I dont think that the new lw version will increase the player count aswell..
Players would join and stay if they could have fun and not get involved into some argues and flame fights...
May thats the point why almost everyone who starts playing here and stay for a longer time is a complete asshole..
We cant rly complain about people like genicide, tks or who ever, who always say "ez" or flame arround ...
they havent seen sth else so they do it i guess..

There is a way to stop this. As you might've noticed, poge was banned twice consecutively for flaming (once by me, and once by miczi). LW was a bit passive with such kind of attitude, considering that LW players were mature enough to know when they should stop. Let's be honest, this is not the case now.
In other words, there was a discussion about dealing with provoking/flaming, and we agreed that we'll deal with it more strictly.
Fixing this problem + loading the new LW script should make a difference.
-
*yawn*
this conversation again? I think I've read this a thousand times already lately
-
Indeed and stopping will neither happen nor help in any way..
-
Poge isnt one of the flame war creators he is one of the newbs wo dont know better ( I seriously think he got an IQ of 10) :(
-
Indeed and stopping will neither happen nor help in any way..
Stopping it partially happened, and it already helped. Even if this does not help then version 4 will help. Don't be a negativity spreader!
If you have a useful suggestion to fix this, post it @ Suggestions section. Getting more players is not rocket science. Its about a good script and a good administration, which LW is working on atm.
Back to topic. (Advertising)

As from what i know/heard the administration is top of the line when it comes to SA-MP atleast so ive been told over the last couple years that ive been playing LWs.
Getting players to come to LW is indeed rocket science because if it wasnt rocket science then where the hell are the players on LW ? i aint seen any player count above 50 the last 2 years (with exceptions of maybe once or twice, it needs to be constant to matter)
And i agree with Disco, i doubt the new GM will attract more players LW has been dead for years now for a reason. And im simply out of ideas that might increase LW. I had one but it was impossible and got rejected while a shitload of people voted yes for it and only a few voted no. Those votes shoulda told the dev team of LW something but theres simply nothing being done about it. Comprimising and improvising is what needs to be done when it comes to suggestions that have been voted yes for alot but simply get rejected because dev team doesnt see it fit.

...
What was your idea? link?
-
It's pure DM SA-MP that's dying, not only LW in particular. You new people don't even know much about how, why and when the player count dropped drastically so stop talking about something you don't know anything about. ;)

As requested: http://forum.littlewhiteys.co.uk/index.php/topic,14930.0.html (http://forum.littlewhiteys.co.uk/index.php/topic,14930.0.html)
This idea simply showed how much people wanted something done about DB and simply because it couldnt be done it gets rejected which i respect but the stats of that particular poll show that something should be done about DB and simply not be ignored thats what im trying to say. If something is impossible to do you improvise/compromise you change something about db that is possible you dont completely reject it and ignore it like Hazard and Slice did in that topic.

Atleast i do know what im talkin about, im not one of them new guys as you say. I even was here before you where here Alvar.

Try Summer 2006
Yours truly LtgBenny_NL
Should have done some more research Alvar like lets say run my forum IP adress through your Admin player database you would have found my names etc etc. Then if you would search on those names you would possibly find an older IP adress of mine which would date back to 2006 if you guys still got those informationz to your disposal ofcourse.

lol no this is an old account. Started this account roughly about 4 months after my old one i think.

why did you register a 2nd forum account and why did you ask somebody to delete your main forum account?
i dont quite understand your way of thinking

Well, Partyserver and BlackTurbo are dm's (although BT has some rp elements) and they have 100 players. Ohh, and both have db... ::)

Those are not pure DM server's where you have to work for your money, weapons.
