Autohost Battleships PRO v1.199

Postby Phantom_LIG8 » Fri Apr 06, 2018 8:26 pm

http://makemehost.com/maps-download.php#B: Pro v1.199 is on there. Epic war has too many versions currently, and I don't know which one is the best/most updated.

All slots open for 5v5.

Autostart can be set at 8-10 players, preferably 10.

Why should this map be hosted? I have restarted a battleships clan(AHOI), already setup a facebook page(OG Bships) wherein many old pros are hopping/have came onboard, setup a discord channel, a fb group chat, and a majority of the people I talked within those groups AND everyone who I meet in the lobby of these games in-game before the game starts has complained that there is no bot to auto host anymore. If you guys would please consider hosting Bships Pro again, we would actually have a shot of revitalizing the community and maybe keep the momentum up to continue into a stand alone game. You guys are vital to this success, please consider this; the community needs your help!

Special Notes: I've been hosting with makemehost.com bot for the last couple months, and it just about always fills to 5v5's, sometime I settle for 4v4's for slow user times. I say this to verify the warranting of ENT bots for this map. I see that this thread continues to pop up over time on these forums, and people have already donated cd keys to this cause of using the ENT bots. Thank you all for your support and time! :)

@ZaM @Phantom_LIG8

Used to play this map and enjoyed it greatly. However it was removed because the playerbase disappeared over time and then the bot no longer filled. For this to be accepted you'd likely need significant support in this thread and proof of renewed activity, so you might begin informing players :)

How do you proposed that I prove this renewed activity? I'm brand new here to the community. I can prove with screenshots of public games I host.

Get players to confirm their renewed interest here. If you host with entgaming public hosting it will be easy for us to track games you host to see activity. The main thing is getting players aware of this suggestion so they can post support. : )

+1 would love to see BShips Pro 1.199 get autohosted by ENT again!! Clan AHOI on USEast plays several games almost every night (thurs, fri, & sat nights EST are most popular).

I definitely support this. I suggest to active .199 players to host (i.e. via makemehost) and give evidence to a few full games. Ill keep an eye open :) Also how the hell is there an AHOI in East! Has a wild Lorc appeared?

We've had some 4v4s and 5v5s hosted via EntLink over the past week.

Has the map been tested since the 1.29 patch has gone live?
I know public hosting bots are still unavailable, however, just asking if it has been hosted via player games (not bots).

Any outstanding issues present?

Well, 1.199 has the same issues as most bships maps, which is that you can't sell items. You can still burn items though. You can't buy some items as well.

As a previous fan of the Battleships Pro map I decided to join their community and play some games. Am impressed by how often they are hosting and filling games and their dedication to getting Bships on its feet again. Definitely !support this

I am in support of this, please revive the Battleships Pro v1.199 auto rehosting bot. There is an active community who wishes they could join a game instantly. I am unable to host games and MakeMeHost takes too long.

The bugs of 1.29 patch have all been fixed in an updated version.

Hi @Phantom_LIG8

Please verify the appropriate map you wish to be hosted.
There are a few versions on MMH, and need to verify accordingly.

Code: Select all

BattleShips Pro v1.199.w3x
