Lord_Dweedle Posted May 10, 2009 im sick of not being able to find a decent co-op server on skulltag. whenever i go on they are empty and im lucky to find someone who dosn't swear or telefrag people. 0 Share this post Link to post
myk Posted May 10, 2009 While I haven't been much on Skulltag (I've used ZDaemon, generally), from experience, people are usually pretty decent in coop servers. If you want more intense cooperative play, get in touch with a nearby player and make a private server or connect directly with your engine of choice. 0 Share this post Link to post

Im probly just unlucky but in my short experiance ive only met 2 decent people and the rest are all asshats. 0 Share this post Link to post
Chrispaks Posted May 10, 2009 For the most part, skulltag has some good co-op maps and original co-op players. You're just playing at a time where GvH has taken over... :( 0 Share this post Link to post
AveryMaurice Posted May 10, 2009 Im thinking we should have a Doomworld sort of get together in Skulltag or ZDaemon, Lock up the game and give the password on a thread in these forums. I never seen any of you play. 0 Share this post Link to post

Coopersville Posted May 10, 2009 I don't really have any issues finding active co-op servers, even at like 4:00AM (EST). An exclusive Doomworld server would be cool, though. Perhaps one where we vote on what .wads or .pk3 files to use. 0 Share this post Link to post

Ed Posted May 10, 2009 I actually wouldn't mind deathmatching every so often, but as stated the servers are largely empty. 0 Share this post Link to post
AveryMaurice Posted May 10, 2009 I could run a Doomworld exclusive dedicated server over Skulltag if anyone wants to... 0 Share this post Link to post

DuckReconMajor Posted May 11, 2009 I play on ZDaemon but I'm willing to re-install Skulltag for a Doomworld server. 0 Share this post Link to post
Edward850 Posted May 11, 2009 Am I the only one who feels that dooms old style of multiplayer (doom.exe, zdoom, etc) is better for get-togethers? Then again, the total number of players you can have tends to get limited (8 players? no). How about odamex instead? Its supports 255 players. 0 Share this post Link to post

Each has it's advantages, I guess. Personally, I'd rather have a Skulltag/ZDaemon server instead of everyone having to leave when the host wants to quit. Either way is fine with me, though. 0 Share this post Link to post

Odamex is still pretty flawed though and not many people have it... plus SkullTag has great multiplayer modes like CTF and old time Deathmatch. I also love ZDaemon. So is it okay If I set up a Doomworld server on skulltag (dedicated)? 0 Share this post Link to post

There is not a single player on some server listed by default... Did connect to some exciting MAP01 dm against myself. Seemed to work so far. Doc Faust 0 Share this post Link to post

I have no trouble finding a coop server on Skulltag. Particularly survival coop. It often helps to join one and play by yourself, in less than 10 minutes someone will be there. Once theres 2 people, a third will show up in less than 5, then it's a party after that. 0 Share this post Link to post

Scet Posted May 13, 2009 Couldn't make it last night, Internet decided to die around 6pm. There are third-world countries will cheaper and better Internet than North America. Any I saw Lord_Dweedle in a survival coop server much later, and nobody swore or telefragged us. Maybe his luck has changed? 0 Share this post Link to post
