[S.O.] Tactical Teamplay Server (One Life - Realism mod) - a.k.a. Strike-Only

[Grizzly]

[S.O.] is a unique "hardcore" INS server for those that prefer to play the game mode "Strike" in a very tactical fashion and where we try to encourage teamwork and communications.
If you like slower paced and more tactical games you can find it here!

Each week we have "Tactical Sunday" @ 20.00 CET were we get together and have good games. At the moment the "[S.O.] Tactical Teamplay & Realism" server is open to the public. "Tactical Sunday" is however a private session to ensure the best possible gameplay experience for our group members. Feel free to join S.O. on all days except Sunday evening and try out!

Send me an invite if you are interested.and / or check our Steam Group for more information:

_____________________________

Some server information:

We've streamlined the squad, gear and weapons layout in a realistic manner. The result is similar to the setup as seen in the earlier versions of the game "America's Army".

The supply system has been disabled, players have free access to a select set of assault rifles, light machine guns, attachments and gear based on their role in the squad.

Furthermore:
- 8v8 (2 x 4 man fireteam per side)
- No player tags / names; check your fire!
- Teams will alternating play the same map as security as well as insurgents
- "Magic" enemy spotting system is disabled
- Round time is increased allowing for more organisation, tactics and stealth
- Disabled scoring and K:D ratio on scoring board
- Teamwork, Teamleading and Communications are encouraged!

Great Server!!

[Grizzly]

Thanks Falls, we have been enjoying the company of BBB a lot!
--------
Tactical Sunday has been a great succes, we have had a lot of good games @ Strike Only.
Feel free to join us and check it out!

[Binnie]

This sounds great!!! Can I get involved in this?

[Grizzly]

Ofcourse! Strike Only is (still) open to the public. Shoot me an invite and i will add you to our steam group.

[Grizzly]

As of now, Strike Only also offers the Ambush game mode, of course in our unique Strike Only fashion.

Besides our usual game modes and gameplay we have been experimenting with other game modes where we disabled respawning. At the moment a no respawn firefight is looking promising, we might thrown that in for desserts next Tactical Sunday.

Feel free to join us and check it out!

[Binnie]

I periodically check the server. It's empty most of the time, which is unfortunate.

[Grizzly]

We get together on sunday around 20.00 CET for Tactical Sunday, you will not find the server empty then for sure... Feel free to join us ans check it out!

Remember though that this is a "hardcore" server that is custom and not comparable whith the avarage other server. Most of the regulars within the group are adults with limited time, hence our organised main evening on sunday.
Altough sunday is the main evening you can find a some good games on other days as well, depending on what times you check? Besides that, you can also hop on when empty and you will quickly have some joiners and/or could invite some friends. More is possible with some initiative... :)

[Grizzly]

At the moment i'm in the process of adding a Mumble VOIP server to our gameplay. The 3D positional audio seems like an excellent addition to our communications and should allow for more precise teamwork of players close to each other without disturbing players on the other side of the map.

The current idea is that this mumble positional audio layer is an addition to the already available ingame communication method (that can be used as "squad" radio) rather then a replacement.

I hope we can make use of it in our next Tactical Sunday meeting this weekend.

[Grizzly]

Tnx to all who have been participating and made "Tactical Sunday" a great success! The server has been seeing growing player numbers. Not only on Sundays, but also on many other days we have a "full house". Time to upgrade the server from 16 to 24 slots!

In short; as of now more room for more people to share the fun, feel free to join in on that as well!

[Grizzly]

The upgrade to a 24 slot server has definitely paid off and has been a great succes. Apparently it has been easier to fill up this bigger server then ever.

We have been enjoying many good games with lots of teamwork and communications, all on fully packed server.

If you like slower paced and more tactical games you can find it here! Feel free to join in and check this all out.

Hope to see you on Strike Only soon!

[Grizzly]

I'm proud to tell that my server is amongst the 35 top ranked servers according to Gametracker!

Especially proud considering that the server is highly modified and focuses solely on one of the least favourite game modes offered by Insurgency. Many thanks to all S.O. players and regulars to make that happen, i hope we share many more good games!

Furthermore i can notify yet another upgrade to the server, we went up from 24 to 26 slots to offer a full squad layout on each side (1 squad leader + 3 x 4 man fire team).

Hope to see you too on S.O. soon!

[Grizzly]

Another news item which i'm rather exited about. Apparently you can modify the map cpscript server side without having it synced with the clients, that means i can do almost whatever i want in all of the maps.

So i've added district, siege, panj, ministry & verticality with strike game mode to our map list.

Great Server!

[Joker]

I liked it there. Too bad that admins are bunch of cry babies that will ban you permanently because you will not accept everything they say even when you are a best player of team. But thats okay, I can find better servers in minute.

[Grizzly]

I've spend hundreds of hours into creating a unique custom server, formed up and gathered a great group of very kind people that assist me with that. Spend a great effort ensuring we have a nice gaming environment where we can play together in an organised matter, were we treat each other with respect and where we are not disturbed by morons shouting and yelling and the lot. I will do whatever is necessary to protect that.

We welcome everybody that want to join and play together with us. Those that whish not or refuse to comply to the way we play should seek their luck elsewhere.
