G1R Warcraft: IC2, project red, guns, ICBM, gregtech & much more!

  • We will update - but I'm not in any hurry. There is nothing about 1.0.0 that I find any more appealing then 1.8.1. Aside from multi-threaded servers, I could really care less about 1.0.0. Enchanting benches and potion shit will be banned and unplacable anyway. Villagers are absolutely retarded looking and will only be turned on so that they can be promptly slaughtered. Maybe animal breeding? But I'm not sure how that is even relevant in a PVP server. Kind of silly actually. Either way vanilla minecraft is garbage, and the IC port contains no new features, so whats the hurry?


    The only major changes will be the Red Power 4 release, and us dropping buildcraft (redundant, glitchy & laggy). I'm also waiting for another MMW or some other gun mod. And please don't even suggest flan's - its so terrible its practically useless. SDK has been "updating" since early november. So unless one of you wants to make a kick ass gun mod we will be with 1.8.1 well into the forseeable future.


    On another note, I will from this point on completely disregard any questions about mods, modding, other servers, etc..if you want to know why x mod isnt on "yet" go and read over the forums and find out for yourself. Do your own research and find the answers to your questions on your own. I will simply ignore anyone who asks and mute you if you harass me. I am a server admin, not a paid research assistant or a help desk employee. Everything I do I do so for damn good reasons. Reasons whose explanations I dont owe to anybody. If your having technical issues or theres a griefer problem let me know. I will even help you figure out why your connection is slow (turn off the streaming porn, joon!). If you want to know why SDK's guns mod isnt on the server go read SDK's thread and figure it out on your own.

  • Starting January 7, 2012, the quantum chestplate will be banned. Anyone caught wearing it will recieve 1 free ban (your free ban is NOT redeemable for a un-ban). I have announced this on the website, in the game (both typing it and in the MOTD), now in the forums, and will remind people many more times up until saturday. If you see someone wearing it take a screencap and send it to me at: mensreamc@gmail.com so I can ban them.


    If you want to know why I'm banning it then you probably don't play on the server, cause its obvious to anyone who has played "THE QUANTUM GAME" that the armor takes balance outside its house, puts it up against a wall, and shoots it in the head. Worse yet, it then bills balance's family for the cost of the bullet.


    Metaphors aside, the armor makes PVP with anything other then nano-sabers completely useless - and to be frank 10 minute long swordfights totally went out with the 1600's (though pantaloons are still pretty bitchin). Its all about the John Woo shit now, so get your M1A1's, P90's and XM25's locked and loaded and turn on the gun & munition factories.

  • Mensrea, I sent you a PM. I've spent the last week tweaking my server config, and I've got some unique stuff. I could quite readily reduce the OPness of quantum if needed by either buffing guns or nerfing quantum.


    PM was sent. I'd like for us to combine forces.

  • OH SNAP! BRICK AND MENS, OP TEAM :D


    Anywhore the server is down, i was on for like, 10 min then the server went down (Approx. 9:30) the server then went back online then offline or somthing, christ knows but i mannaged to get on, but then fell in the void for bout 2 min then another java socket thingy :P Just to let you know.

  • Yeah its a problem with the cable companies equipment and I am not with the server so I cant really even troubleshoot right now. The cable company is sending someone out tomorrow morning but hopefully I can fix this when I get home tonight. Until then the connection might be fucked up and slow or not present at all. If anyone has ever had a cable modem that just keeps reseting over and over let me know how you fixed it.

    ...This sounds pretty cool.
    You have the support of the unofficial Blue team mascot, and the official former leader of the team!

  • Thanks to the hard work of brickedkeyboard we will actually be switching to 1.0 tonight. He single handedly made WW2 guns a desirable mod and nerfed quantum. Not only will we be switching but we wont be losing the map either (also thank bricked for the map converter he made). My statement regarding MMW being wiped also does not stand - most things will disapeer but they will have no effect on chests or safes if they are already in there.


    Yesterday red conquered blues first town (still no names for towns, really?) and is now in control of it.


    I also decided against banning enchantments and potions cause apparantly they really arent all that valuable or op anyway. However, I still hate them and plan to say MANY derogatory things about them AND their creators (*hack*NOTCH*hack*), mostly out of spite and contempt and to rile up the fan boys. One thing I will NOT tolerate though is frosty the snowman - I'm seriously wondering whether or not notch was eating some special sugar cubes when he got that bright idea. Anyway, placing snow blocks will be banned, mostly to prevent this ridiculus fantasy mechanic from supplying people with unlimited ice to cool their reactors. Sorry folks, TEP Co. didnt have a frosty to save them and neither will you.


    I eagerly await multi-threading, bug fixes, the new optifine, and energy shields. We will also be getting hot air balloons, advanced machines and some new plugins.


    Finally, we will be linking with brickedkeyboards server via a portal in broville. Teams will be able to crossover and raid and fight with each other. THIS DOES NOT MEAN SERVER VS SERVER. This means team vs. team vs. team. So stop trying to have secret boycotts or peace treaties or whatever wild schemes you dreamers think of and face facts: kill or be killed.

  • OP has been updated to reflect the most recent rule changes and new info/mods. Quantum armor is no longer banned, just really nerfed (use nano or lesser and learn to shoot - PVP isnt just about tanking damage and winning a slugfest with swords anymore). A metric crapload of new mods have been added. Me and brick are also finalizing the portal system that will link our servers.


    Also, bedrock command centers are and will be gone for good. They are being replaced with control towers. To cap the control tower all the enemy team has to do is destroy the obsidian block at the top of it. I highly, highly recomend you use our new modular forcefields to protect these control towers, otherwise you really wont be able to stop a sneaky player from getting to it (or a destructive player from blowing up everything in the path to it).


    Also since the server is using customized mods now you will NEED the installer to play. Its at the website here: http://industrialwar.weebly.com/mods-needed.html.


    Finally, due to the departure of a few red team reps we will be looking for new reps. Let me know if this is something that interests you.
