Dead Men Walking are pleased to announce that we are supporting CoD4 with our own ranked server.

The server will initially be password protected allowing only Charlie and Bravo members access to help us fine tune the settings. A post will be made in the Bravo section of the forum with the password details.

Initial tests look very promising and we are all confident that BF2 has a worthy successor here at dMw.

CSS and BF2 players will have little problem adjusting to this game so if you haven't already tried it then I urge you to do so and, please, purchase CoD4 via one of our affiliates.

A lot of work has been done behind the scenes to make this happen and I would particularly like to offer my thanks and appreciation to Blueball who has taken on the vast majority of the workload. :thumb:

Answers to any questions you might have (including passwords and patch levels) should be found here.

Let's all try to make this another example of why playing games the dMw way is the only way.

See you on the server.

I'm looking forward to a more friendly CoD4-based game, as I left because of getting called a camper alot and a hacker (I've got a really good spot on Bloc to snipe from).
 
Maybe I should wait for the link but;

More to come but initially we will play S&D Single Bomb but will venture into HQ, SAB and Dom before having a mixed gamemode mapcycle :)

I've wanted to play COD4 since it came out but my PC isn't up to it...This gives me more motivation to save those pennies.  Hopefully soon I will be able to join the COD4 players out there :D

very nice i might actually play cod on the pc and not on my xbox :D

we ran one with big but we found that the ideal size for the server was about 12-16 players anymore and it just wasnt enjoyable as ppl usually didnt work as a team and you would spawn in the middle of fire fights


I came into this world with nothing,
through careful management I\'ve got most of it left.

I look forward to it when it is being opened to us non believers :).  But no seriously good news playing a great game with people you know it does make it better.

No, playing a great game and killing people makes it better...

Have people decided ranked is the way to go to get more interest, or do you just not have to pay Activision to run a ranked server like you had to do with EA and BF2?

Mal: Define interesting...

Tbh a bit of both.  Ranked does create more interest and more rewards for our members (why should they not benefit from their gameplay on our server?).  However we also do not have to pay to have a ranked server and that was a major problem with BF2 which killed population levels.  Even diehard dMw BF2 fans played mroe elsewhere because they got a ranked server and all the goodies.  But at least sanity prevails this time........

We now have 2 server - one public and one private - more details here

NB that the IPs are the same but the port number changes :)

Is this the place to ask I wonder? Is there an objection to auto team balancing? If not, can we have it please.
Thank you. :)
