D.A. server patch...coming soon! New server app in the mean

Sun Mar 30, 2003 6:21 pm by blowi

Yeah. I sign up for the beta when it's ready.
I'd really like to update my server asap. It's damn frustrating to keep checking is it still up or has it crashed.

This is wonderful, but I would love to see more ships and maybe new systems.

I could see some Freight Trains, and Battleships for high prices.

But cheaters need to die before this happens, or everything will be out of wack.

And people, the lvl 10 weapons that you find need to respawn for others, make sure you destroy the debree all the way!

Now... by server stability, do they also mean fixing the netcode so 56kers can actually play online? I am constantly being annihilated by enemies I can't see that are, sometimes, registered as 99+k away in under 30 seconds from being 100m away. I can't even dock with a trade lane without waiting a minute sometimes. Even if nothing is flying in the area. This is on ANY and EVERY server. Netcode, definitely needs to be fixed.

Thank you,

What can I say, WE NEED ANTI CHEAT NOW

Man!!! I was playing on-line when I was killed by some freak cheater on a sabre with 10 nomad cannons and 3 nomad lazers plus the counter meas, disruptor, and the ripper mine equiped

. Later i was testing some ini editing files and i could ADD 4 GUNS LVL 10 SLOT AND CHAGE THE 2 LVL9 TO LVL10 AND ADD 2 TURRETS, AND WORKS 100% ONLINE :p. I could also edit the cargo space to the max of 199999 and nanobots and shield batt to the same number, and work fine the only prob is that u cant use the tractor to pickup more commodities, NB and SB than the server expect that u get, but i could buy it and transport on the space. MAN THIS IS TOO BAD after that i unistalled the game print my id number and i wont play it until the ini data is cheat protected on-line.

Now we have placed some skins into the game, they are great looking at that.

I have only one problem, they can't be seen by other players.

Guildes and servers would form much better if you could see indiviadual skins don't you think...

Hey gang..

First - I hope this patch will resolve some issues with us ADMIN types..
but as far as cheeters, JUST KICK EM! it does suck that some schmow logs onto your server and starts PKing with thier Nomad wpns..
I ask players who log onto Strikers Universe to keep the NY system PK-free; break the rules, and adios...

Now for that patch..

keep up the good work.

Any update on the patch being released to the community or reging to beta it? I know my 2 main server admins would like to, just a question of when it's out.

Cheaters..... a big problem if the comunnity in game dont do nothing.

In the server i usually play all level 30+ Players work to prevent cheating. All players that level faster than normal ( And experimented players know u can level to 38 in around 2.5 hours but not faster unless other give u the money) are considered free to kill. All player factions hunt him all day and kill him all times they can.

Dont fight to real players if a cheater is online. KILL HIM, Burn his ship and if he is about to dock crush his wings, he lose more than if u kill.

Vini vidi vinci

In light of whats happened to the Elite servers, any info on a private or public beta of the server patch?

edit: one to add to your LAN for testing epsecially you cheats, cant block them without them trying.

Written by Mr_S:
Just wanted everyone to know that DA seems to have a test server up where they are currently debugging the server patch we are all waiting on. I've been playing on this server since it first came up a month ago. It does have some interesting anti-cheat measures running. Also they seem to be trying to make servers more stable. I just wanted to recommend maybe we should try and promote people to try this box out when its online in the hope that it DA will release a better patch.

The servers name is DA patch (with a few spaces in the beginning)

DA Patch/173ms/208.34.203.75:2302

The server does seem to crash a lot still but they do update the Server News often with some bits of info about whats going on. When it crashes they only seem to restart it during DA business hours. I'm guessing thats west coast USA. So if you dont see it keep checking.
