Request 5v5 Competitive Server

[Mr.Radical]

Seeing recently with the huge boost in popularity the retake servers are gaining in Sneak's community, I think it would be a wonderful idea to see about creating a 5v5 community competitive server. Hopefully I can help you out with some of these questions you might be thinking.

• Why a 5v5 server?

With the 1v1 server and the 3 retake servers constantly being full, it would open up another place for players to warm up in a different way than playing 1v1 or retakes. It could also be enjoyed by players who don't want to commit to a full game of matchmaking, or just want to frag out with some friends and have a good time.​

• What would Sneak's Community gain from a 5v5 server?

If a 5v5 server is added, it would bring in more players which would help expand the community, it may also help bring players in the community closer together AND it adds some more variety to the current servers. Just another server for people to have fun and enjoy themselves on!​

• What might be some downsides to a 5v5?

The main downside I could think of having another server that involves gunplay would create, is that it opens up the possibilities to having more cheaters trying to play in the community. This may put more stress on the Admins taking care of the server(s).​

Looking forward, I think a 5v5 server would be a great benefit to have within the community. A server to bring the members together for a bit of fun, or a place for people to take it seriously (depends on rules established for the server).

rad,
signin' out 🙂

This is something I've wanted for a long time, but it's something I want to flesh out really well - full historical stats, demos available after a game is over, etc.

How would you guys like this setup? An open, public server anyone can hop into at any time and start a match, or would a passworded server that would be available via Discord for regulars be better? Maybe any other ideas?

I've been looking at raidboss's servers and they have a couple that people can just leave and join, but they also have a private one that I think you go to their website to sign up for so randoms dont join. I've been enjoying the open ones though . I think a private one for regulars would also be a fun option.

But I guess I should answer the question, I think I'd prefer an open one for now.

If possible we could just start out with an open one, one we can just drop in and out of. If the 5v5 skyrockets in popularity then maybe we could look at having a private 10man server if there is enough interest from players.

Stats and demos would be perfect to have also, and some kind of ranking system (silver to global) could be implemented too. As for how the ranking system would work, I'm not sure if there is a better way to rank people other than just by an amount of points. But it would be sweet if we could figure out a way to make the ranking system more by skill rather than a point game because if you play lots = high rank in that case.

I like the passworded idea

This may be too much, but why not make both? In my old gaming community, we used to have a 10man server just for regulars/members of the community. It was passworded and was only played when people wanted to. There's a lot more active people in this community than the one prior, so this could work out a lot better. Coordinated comps, etc. We could also make a public one that constantly runs maps, that people can just hop on and join, currently I play 5v5 autohop servers, and I enjoy that heavily, it's what I play when surf is down for the zillionth time.
