Just dropping by for a friendly hello.

Back to UT. Would it be a bad idea to bring LGI 155/55 back from the dead?
I mean i'm sure some people would enjoy it other than combo.
Just a thought. Miss that old gametype.

That was my first ever clan style of game type, seems like a lifetime ago i played that, I remember the good old days on HNC and HOG, I would love to see LGi 155/55 make a return alongside the other iG servers!

I like playing on the normal iG server but for me its like slo mo speed, i'm used to the fast iG, the other biggest part was the teamwork, I was always a booster!! :)

Yeah mine too. Just sucks to see a good gametype die down.

what sucks is it had a sudden decline, never did find out where everyone went.

i suppose we could get something going...

Here's what happened.

HNC started playing some other game and left their LGI to die. I asked them to take over or grab a copy of map folder. I never got a response. So that's where it stopped.

Even now bringing back LGI would be like beating a dead horse.....

Who knows, maybe it could take off like combo did. I'm sure people would love to resort to lgi again, and newcomers try it out.

Combo is different. Don't make that comparison please.

Relatively speaking, combo is a game type with 100% speed and a shock rifle. Much less skill and adaptation required compared to LGI ...155 speed. 55 air control. Low grav

i love anything low g esp insta but its been dead for a long time now

if anything there might be a market for low g sniper pugs

if any other clan started a LGi server i am sure it would stay dead SAM but connected to your already popular iG servers i bet it would do well.

Combo just gets old way to fast. Getting combo spawn killed nonstop is pretty boring.. Maybe if it was just 'insta' it would be different. just my opinion.

Why don't you play on one of the three insta servers then :p

Combo is just spam, all you need is a low ping and to spam combos where ever you walk to dominate, no skill or aim needed, it was much better with the newnet version of combogib, where you had to position the shock ball near someone to kill them.

Lol lgi is the king mod of instagib normal ig and combo requires no skill or teamwork

We can give LGI a try on the DM server I suppose...even though DM is getting some good attention now....

Who has the LGI server maps and stuff?

That would be Trajik :P

Or I played at ~SiN~ server, they got plenty of DM LGI maps.
They LOVE LGI.

Exactly...there are LGI servers out there....if people wanted to play LGI they would look for it and play it...

Just because we host it doesn't mean it will become popular. Personally, I don't like failing. So when I launch something, I put everything I have into trying to populate it, this means idling too.

Anyway, we can try it and see. If it helps to bring it back, then all the better ;)

Sir, do you have MapManager? If not, PLEASE go get it. It'll make you looking for file in each easier.
Except for dealing with more than 1 files that are same due to mismatch in cachecleaner...

It's VERY Challenging SAM, but you would succeed as you have a very healthy following , way more than any of us other Admins have ever had. I'll help anyway I can, not that you'd need it...

It's a lot of work...so unless you have the time on your hands, wouldn't recommend it lol

So....who's going to provide a zip of some sort or upload the maps??

I'm sure between myself and a few others here, you'd end up with the biggest LGI Collection of maps ever...heh. I'll start putting together a zip and post it in dropbox when I'm done. However some maps are more fun than others. For example... I love HOG Fragism and Hall of BLUD...Big, fun, good for 10 players, You can only play FacingASSeq so many times..lol.

i used to use mappers dream and unreal office but they are never 100% accurate. I will give that one a shot, thanks chamberly :)

Good list Blaze, there are sooo many(maps) made for LGI but not popular, those maps play well in rotation.

Hey SAM, got some weirdness going on with the firing in the LGI. Once in a while when the player is in the air firing, while he's coming down, the shooting is coming from above him..like a drop...just fyi. Love the Map and Music btw.

sorry, buried my 3rd relative in under 6 months yesterday after finding out he had bone cancer, was given 6 months to live, died less than a week later.

I have the maps, its finding the time to put them all together without something sucker punching me and flipping my life upside down.

apologies for the delay, but i am sure if you have some to get started trajik then I am sure if you provide a link to a pack then sam will get on it.
