I was wondering if there's even a playerbase for this mod anymore? Most of the current servers are a pain to play, bad hosts on overseas VPS and bad mutators resetting your binds etc etc.

I'm kicking around the idea of hosting my own, COD style settings and making maps for it, but I don't really want to waste my time with it, if there's no playerbase for it.

Would you guys like to see this happen? Lemme know.

What precisely does COD style settings mean?

It'd be a loadout server with COD selection of weapons, based on skill and not spam/splosionz. No dodging etc.

You want to take the things that make UT different from COD, remove them and make it into a COD clone? Those things are part of the appeal. At least, to me. Not every weapon is superpowered, spammy or explosive. Also, there are perfectly valid weapons that just happen to explode, like the BORT.

Though while your proposed idea has no interest to me, there are people that would and do play that type of gaming mode. At least leave in dodging. No reason people can't side step. Plus it'd make the skill element that much more key. Anyone can line up a shot, but not all of them can connect on a target that's trying to avoid being hit.

We aren't talking about unreal, we're talking about ballistic weapons. Im not sure what you're ranting about honestly lmao. Im not hosting an unreal weapons servers, it's a ballistic weapons server, with chaos and recoil. Dodging and wall flips don't mesh with BW.

I don't think BORT fits in with a competitive fps environment,

Try to play LDG's servers, you might find something more CoDesque of that's what you want.

I'm actually interested in seeing a CoD style server with no dodging and what not. Several of the new weapons are indeed geared towards tactical gameplay.

I'm all for it.

Working on creating a "Vacant" CoD4 inspired map at the moment, I'm going to build a test before I put this in actual motion. I'll update with screens etc. when I have time.
