Red Orchestra: Heroes of Stalingrad - Ranked Server

Sparko · September 23, 2011, 09:13:27 PM

Is there any way we can make our server ranked? it's currently set to unranked and we are struggling to get pubby's on, no probs if not

Edit: oh server is working spot on thanks Whitey

great games tonight, even with just the four of us

As Sparko says, it will need to be a ranked server to get pubbies on, what other options are available? (map list / game mode etc)

The game still has it's bugs, some have sound loss issues and bit glitching, but i highly recommend this game, very tactical and fun!

yeah was very very good, really enjoyed it

, the maps are huge but even with 4 of us we had a great night.

It takes a few go's to get your controls right (there are a lot of them (although not as many as Arma) so it takes a bit of getting used to) but its brilliant. If you buy it, you will not be dissapointed. As far as the glitches are concerned i reckon they will be ironed out in less than a few weeks, going on how regular they are releasing patches.

If we get the server ranked, its a definate place to entice pubbies into the communty, it seems there are very few "kids" that play it as its definately for the more mature gamer..

I enjoyed our fights tonight:)
Ranked server is a must IMO
I must spend half hour sorting my controls so I don't prone when trying to run away

and also my in-game comms, which will be invaluable. You need to have private team comms to get anywhere in this game, especially in tanks

Server updated yet again! :flirty:

p.s. I've been through the Web Admin settings and I can't find a reason for the server not being ranked. Any ideas what is wrong anyone?

Looks like you have to apply for ranking LINK

Stumbling block?

lionheart · September 24, 2011, 01:21:25 AM

No, looks really straight forward, just need clan and server details.

And a game leader, or clan representative.

Sparko · September 24, 2011, 01:30:52 AM

I'm happy to volunteer, does it not say clan or gaming community?

It's up to the guys at the top

lionheart · September 24, 2011, 01:32:27 AM

Yea, I use "clan" in a general sense. Just need to be established with a website etc.

TeaLeaf · September 24, 2011, 09:24:22 AM

I'll apply on behalf of dMw for ranked server status.

lionheart · September 24, 2011, 09:27:16 AM

Nice one, thanks TL.

ive just bought it for 20 euro so ill be on sometime this year after it downloads at 198 kb/s

TeaLeaf · September 24, 2011, 10:39:58 AM

I think the RSP sucks.

I just spent 25 minutes trying to get a single page form to submit. There are no notes on exactly what it wants in terms of the data format so you have to guess. It keeps telling me my 64bit steamid is not valid (strange as a check ingame with ` then console gives me what I am putting in, that //www.deadmen.co.uk is not a valid web address and to cap it all it wipes the entire form clean after each attempt at submission so you have to start all over again. It's bullshit. I'll try again later.

TeaLeaf · September 24, 2011, 10:46:00 AM

Meh, finally done. It for some bizarre reason actually wanted a true 64 bit number not the steam id. Well that's the first time ever I have been asked for that, why the heck not code it into the damn site in the first place grrr......... :angry:
