105-115 to MKTURBO.COM from NYC on FiOS. No response from 73.131.91.13.


TF2 servers are not bandwidth-intensive. From what I've read, 1 to 1.5 Mb/s symmetrical is perfectly adequate for a 32 player host. By comparison, latency is hugely important, and 100-150ms is a no-go.


That being said, starting a new TF2 server and getting it populated on a regular basis isn't easy. After the demise of PF2, a new server (FiG) popped up with the intent of absorbing the former PF2 community. Despite significant marketing (both on the forums and via word of mouth), the server is failing miserably. PF2 used to be full damn near 100% of the time at peak hours. FiG, as I write this, has two players on it. And they're derping.

See there we go. I've downloaded the game again so I'm all set. Also holy shit there are a lot of items now...

Anyways, throw up the server in the U.S. and we'll have to set up some times to play, see what happens.

Ready to play TF2 when you guys are :likecat:

Steam id?

Put in some playtime tonight on the NoHeroes servers which hi_im_sean recommended.

No Heroes Stats - Team Fortress 2

They're pretty good. Got a whole bunch of servers and they're usually well-loaded. I played on Payload Rotation and Badwater / Goldrush. Lots of skilled players, relatively little BS. Only had one hacker-whiner, and he was silenced promptly. One of the servers got a little stacked at one point, but it was nice to not just rocket immediately to the top of the scoreboard for a change. Good voicechat, good team coordination.

I recommend these servers.

Is there a MiataTurbo group on Steam already?



EDIT: The answer is yes after a quick search... lol.

Best TF video i've ever seen. Very touching.

Sooo where is everyone. @Arca_ex and I have been battling the machines 3-4 nights a week. step it up guys.

Would be cool if we could actually get a good skilled team of 6 for MvM. We would like to play the more challenging rounds on advanced level, but there are too many noob idiots flooding the mvm servers, its rare we get anything resembling a decent team.

I need to play more & stop going to the bar spending money :burncash:

An when you are on youre always playing CSS! im going to start bugging you if aaron and I have a game going.

I will start leaving steam open. Feel free to send me a message if you guys want to play. Or if I have a set time to get on for MvM that is a better way for me to plan to get one.

add me, steam id: hi_im_sean

we almost always start playing at 8pm ish, mountain time

Do eeet, :party:

And yea, I'm a CS elitist. I have to hit rank3 in CS:GO so I can play private servers with my old cal-m buddies. :likecat:

Im surprised that thats 3 of us that used to play in CAL. Although I only played DODS.

I still need to find one of my old mics or buy a new one. Im waiting on aaron to yell at me again for not having one. The need increases exponentially with difficulty level in MvM.

:hatecat: :hatecat: :hatecat:



Would be sweet if we could find 6 people total so we don't have to deal with fucktards.

Aaron and i will be playing tonight starting at 8 to 830 ish mountain time. Both of our steam ids are the same as our usernames. Be there!

Getting on right meow.

@Girz0r we're on right meow. Fair warning.

Tonight, tonight I will join you guys :yippee:

I'll be on early 6-7CST so 5-6 for you two

I have my PC hooked back up and ready to game, you bros should see me on a lot more in the evening :bigtu:
