Xmas has arrived and the end of the year approaches... so we take a puff, tip our cups, and party hardy for the final days of 2015. It has been a strange year, one of new experiences and loads of drama. We hope to have learned from past mistakes and plan to take on the new year straight up hulk style.

We've purged any non-active members, and now we're seeking new moderators, admins, and developers (coders/mappers/etc).

Quote:This upcoming Tuesday the 22nd, the remainder of the 90+ beta key stockpile will be distributed via webpage underworks atm titled 'Key Grabber". These keys will be released on a first come first served basis. Included in this release will be a tutorial for instructing new players on BB2 game-play basics. The reason for the change was to simplify the release procedure & to hasten the release of said keys.

Requirements to obtain a key are as follows: Setting your steam profile to public, and joining the official steam community group of Brainbread 2 @ http://steamcommunity.com/games/brainbread2

The much needed US east coast expansion has finally arrived. NYC.MODRIOT.COM will be our main server for the US:E sector, we will begin by transferring the game-servers located on the old NY machines. Then after that anything is possible, maybe TF or CS:GO? Maybe even a minecraft server or two.

WE HAVE THE INFRASTRUCTURE IN PLACE, NOW WE JUST NEED THE TALENT TO RUN THESE NEW GAME SERVERS. We're on the hunt for server managers, if you're interested PM me directly on what you might have planned. Be detailed & thorough, include a run down of your past moderation/management experience; think it through before contacting me. [all locations: Seattle, New York, Los Angeles, Germany]

Official Group: http://steamcommunity.com/games/brainbread2/


What To Expect
When Closed Beta launches there will be 3 available maps, plus a workshop map. Be aware that we are still using some temporary models and animations for the NPC's. A lot of these models & animations will be replaced when beta 2 or 3 arrives.

We have 3 gamemodes available for Closed Beta, Classic, Elimination and Arena.

Classic
This gamemode is mostly objective based, you'll also be able to use a fully functional quest and inventory system here if you want to spice things up.
Overall this gamemode is based on BrainBread Classic.

Elimination
This mode introduces round based gameplay where you have to take out the other team to win.

Arena
This mode introduces wave based gameplay where you have to work as a team to survive the waves.
For each wave the game will get harder, the enemies will be stronger. If you die your team will lose reinforcements and you'll have to wait until you can respawn!

Note:
The BrainBread 2 Mod Tools won't be available until Christmas and/or sometime in January.

As the game server transfers continue, IP addresses & ports will likely change so be ready to update any of our servers saved in your steam favorites. All locations except NYC servers will be affected by these changes. All web based services have been moved to their new location so we should be clear of any outages on that front.

As for Codename CURE, upcoming changes to game server map rotations will make them more specific for example: Default Maps, Custom Maps, Survival Maps, ect. Along with additional maps being added to the rotations. Total earnings for November's advertisement campaign accumulated a total of $33.64, which will be used for our latest dedicated server purchase. We will also be making a change to the ad frequency from 15 to 20mins.

For Gmod, restoration of all 4 servers will begin asap. Murder, Stranded, Dayz & DarkRP. As we move these servers to a new machine, IP and ports will be changing. You can follow our progress by watching this thread: http://modriot.com/showthread.php?tid=18...301#pid301

Current Staff Openings
Forum Moderators + Webmaster - Webmaster to keep things going behind the scenes, forum moderators to keep things going on public boards

The newest addition to the modriot network, a hetzner dedi located in the heart of Europe, Germany. DE.MODRIOT.COM will be our main server for the EU sector, installations will begin asap.

Hope everybody enjoyed their thanksgiving holiday, and now time for the news. With Black Friday/Cyber Monday brings all sorts of server deals, and of course i had to go all "kid in a candy store" with it. So far the damage is: upgraded Seattle Location with twice the power, repurchased the los angeles machine at a better deal which gave me a little extra bread to purchase another RamNode VM in ATL. Soon i will begin the transfer from the old web server host to the new one, so some downtime may occur. Also picked up another machine for the NYC location, and finally ive placed an order for a dedicated server for the EU locations which will be a much needed addition for this community.

As for the Garrysmod servers, progress has been sluggish due personal reasons and holiday/family gatherings. So now that it has past, work shall progress.

More important news to report, the Brainbread 2 devs have finally announced the launch of the closed beta, more information can be found at http://modriot.com/showthread.php?tid=18...288#pid288 ... We at ModRiotGaming are proud to have been selected to help with the launch by providing gameservers for its beta testers.

We've finally reached 500+ members with our steam community group. A great day indeed, and we are teh proud of this accomplishment. Next up will be the achievement of 1000+ members, which we will aim to reach.

On our Codename CURE front, our advertisement campaign thus far has been pretty successful, earning ~$10 within the past 6 days of reporting. We thank for the community for its support, and we'll continue providing the CNC scene with plenty of servers to play on.
Next up is getting back to the Garrysmod project, as it has been forgotten for way too long. First by fixing the current plague of lua errors showing while updating all the necessary plugins. Maintenance will begin tonight, so servers will be down for at least a couple of hours as we start off the renovation with an OS re-installation.

As for the changes with our central (chicago) location, we've been having some troubles with one of our providers. So as we get things worked out, all gameservers running off the location will be down (except CNC) for the time being. This would include both No More Room in Hell & the Team Fortress Classic game servers.

We've made alot of changes since our last post. Support for various mods such as TF2, Fists of Frags, L4D2 has been dropped ... shifting resources over to hosting additional NMRiH & Codename Cure servers. Seems fitting with all these zombie games and Halloween up and coming, the future of these new gameservers will depend on their player activity and their overall influence on community growth.

Next up on the todo list will be some sort of live statistics for all NMRiH servers, ill start simple with a sourcemod plugin for simple rankings (!rank & !top10), then after implementing either HLstatsX:CE/Psycostats or equivalent. Most likely i will combine them all into a single rankings list instead of dedicated rankings per server. Once completed i will attempt to do the same with our Codename Cure servers.

We do need some help from the codename cure community itself, obtaining additional maps for the server network which now accounts for about 1/4 of the playable CnC servers.
