I saw that many players want to play on a destinationUnreal Sniper server. Its not a problem to open one or more other servers with other mods. We have enough hardware/bandwith resources for it.
Question is only which kind of Sniper server. So many different mods are avaible.
For example:
- TDM/DM Normal Sniper
- TDM/DM LowGrav Sniper
- DM Freestyle (lowgrav,doublejump)
- DM Freestyle II (lowgrav,doubleJump,Only Big Maps with search and destroy and not run and gun)
- ...
I want to know which kind of Sniper (or other mod) do you want to have at dU. I want only suggestions for servers there do you play later "activ" and not a nice to have one ;)

well i also said on old forum (?) that id like another mods/gametypes but  rather id like others than sniper (okok sniper is very good but im very bad usually at DM  )
so id like more 1-FragBall, 2-Soccer 3-Assault to name only some enough popular .. (there r many other mods i like but not so popular, unhopefully most probably ppl wont enjoy them ) (however i worry that ppl wdu enjoy these rather in reverse order than mine one)
about Sniper ... well id like more your first item from that list, i mean Normal Sniper, or at least if a column on map voting if ull make a server for other type/kind of Sniper ... (lowgrav dont really like, with double jump no problem, big maps? if filesize not too big ok, my UT already has 9.15 GB! O.o anyway i think i wont play too much Sniper ...)
(i really like TallyHo too but seems others not, boring to play always alone i did it tho some few times, also once or twice played with Fazi there some maps ... maybe will help a short description/advertisment/something ... of this mod on HP?))
edit: ahh, and maybe some CTF types? anyway without RocketX pls, or at least same as i said for Sniper, with 1 column with normal CTF maps (without RX) (i tried few CTF servers ((almost) all r with RX ) but i usually die there even be4 to see enemy/ies/my killer ! ( )
edit2: even with nowadays HDD capacities i think space cud be a problem for other mods out DM, MH and maybe CTF, and big maps, for many ... (maybe thats reason for tallly too) and not necesarly cos ppl dont have enough space but ... well i heard ppl about reinstalling UT because it has too big size ... |

Uhh too many chances XD I think if its sniper... then it should be normal sniper without lowgrav.. i dont like low gravity to be honest.
Hmm i will think of these again... but i almost don't mind, if it stays some kind of DM... i like Jailbreak also for example. But sniper is the best. Maybe insta-dm, we like that very much with Hellfy.
Would be good to see the others opinion!!!
Guys please comment on this topic!  |

Well my opinion is, that it is a nice idea.If you are tired of hunting monsters and always playing the same maps you can frag for a while on this server.
But honestly I think the whole idea and popularity will not last long.
And opening a new server will cost the admins only more and more money to hold the server online.
We should donate more then. |

@DJ (_Einstein ofc ): unhopefully, from what i know, DOM no longer popular, i like it too very much but ...
related to Sniper? if will be without low grav and without huge maps, maybe some big but not huge (how i saw some on others servers) u can count me in/on too (sry Hellfy and others, u wont escape from there too  i need parcticing aiming more than u ... ); also dont like instagib, but with, how i already said, double (or even triple??   ) jump id have no problem   (or if will be at least a column of maps with this so-called "normal" Sniper ...)
and about other mods i enumerated above (Fragball, Soccer, Assaullt ...) they cud be on same server on diferent columns also, even if are really diferent mods ... (my opinion ...) (dw i know and can understand that Sniper wud has/have priority ... but for case that will be possible 2 servers ....)
edit: maybe DJ u'll think/say that Fragball/Soccer/... are even less popular than DOM, and maybe ud be rite, but id say that these are at least more funny ... (at least soccer, who already played it maybe know what i mean ...) |

Make it Instagib Volatile weapon
(Jk, don't do this, it will crash the server )
I like sniper, but not so much with Low Gravity, since if you have lag, it becomes impossible to hit (But that's because i live in internet stoneage land Everyone else would be fine XD) |

actually DOOM i was just saying DOM cuz that was my favorite ut game mods. ha DOM was the only reason i played ut online from 2002 to 2007. Since it being my favorite i was putting that down as a suggestion lol. CMON ya have to admit that DOM is fuckin fun I dont understand why no one plays it anymore |

I would love the idea of a Sniper server at Destination Unreal.
I remember back in the days when I played at a famous sniper server called Fraggalonia. I believe it was normal DM sniping, no mods. But it had great maps. Like Zahltag, and others. I really loved the atmosphere on those maps (usually city maps), sneaking around.
I vote a big YES to a sniper server. Preferably free from mods to start with. Some mods really just destroy the art of sniping. And if anyone of you also played on Fraggalonia back in the days, you know what I am talking about. |

A DM Freestyle II can be a good server...like a Head-Hunt.
More fun than run and u are dead...u can get some frags if u hunt some running people,well,that isnt intelligent of a sniper :p
Better hold position and hunt some heads. |
