Does FI Have a Server?

Post by :FI:Dr_Strangelove » Wed Jun 14, 2006 6:07 pm

I was wondering if there was an FI server available to log into? Do we or did we ever have one of these?

To my knowledge we don't have a dedicted server. I know Snoop has a server up occasionally, but it's open to the public, no passowords or anything, but I don't think it's been up lately. So it wasn't truly an FI server.

I might be mistaken but I think a gereric FI base map is in the works, and if Snoop get's his server back up it might pan into something like that.

Some of us host coops and dogfights on HL or via IP.

Well if there is a need for something like this I could look into it, should we decide that the squad and myself are a good fit. One of the guys on my site runs a server hosting company out of Florida and I might be able to get a free server up and running. (Im guessing he would want to have a small mention or something, but other than that it should be cool.)

Well if someone can give some input on what they would be looking for out of a server, then I would be happy to put a request in. I used to host a FB server a long time ago, but I assume that these days things are a bit different.

On my old server I created a very nice array of historically accurate maps and scenarios that would rotate based on who won each map. This gave it more of a Dogfight/COOP feel instead of just a boring old Dogfight server.
