What game servers would you like to see?

[skullmeat]

So in addition to Quake 3, I have a few ideas for some classic games I want to run, as well as some modern-ish stuff. Here's what I am considering so far:
Mechwarrior 4: Mercenaries
UT04/99
UT3
Doom II
SRB2k (Mario Kart clone based on gzdoom)
SoF II
Duke Nukem 3D (dukematch)

Any suggestions? Linux server binaries are preferred.

Doom 2 was a big one for me. I only like UT 04 if there are 2000 people, lol... SoF is a ton of fun, haven't played multiplayer on that since release... never played MW 4 multiplayer either. I wonder if I can get my HOTAS working. .. and I love Mario Kart, but I've never played that WAD. I should check it out.

I think it's a good idea to run games that are somewhat easy to play on modern systems... so UT 99 and 04 are up there. I wonder if Rune works well?

My all time favorite lan game is Half-Life 1... just the regular vanilla multiplayer is stupid fun. I haven't played the steam version in forever. Did they fix the terrible physics?

I'll list more if I think of more in a bit.

Im also considering an internet radio because I can. I have a ton of Japanese EDM that I could put on there.

Monolith's games have pretty fun multiplayer, can recommend Shogo, NOLF and FEAR. Don't think the first two have Linux binaries available but I've hosted them using WINE on a Linux VPS and didn't have any issues.

You do have to configure them, switch maps etc using a GUI though meaning you'll want X11 forwarding set up if running them on a remote server.

Theres no command line? Ugh. We will see. Sounds like alot of hassle.

I think most people are over it but I'd love a good ol' Minecraft server. I've been itching to play some 1.0/beta but would also play on current version.

This thread needs more Kingpin: Life of Crime, loved playing the bagman mode on weird custom maps back in the day

As someone whose fondest memories of minecraft are around the 1.8/beta era, I'd love a server from around that era....any time I've tried to back and play Minecraft in the past 10 years, I get really overwhelmed by all the new shit

A SRB2K server would be nice since a lot of those servers became Ring Racers servers and i can't play that game for shit, i suck at it lol

Also an UT99 server would be really nice because they're kind of a bitch to set up. If it includes Monster Hunt that would also be really nice. Another thing, not sure if it is possible but i have been getting a lot of CS Zombie Escape videos lately, i wonder how hard it would be to set up a server for this.

I think playing some Starsiege: Tribes (1998) would be a lot of fun I played it at a LAN party recently and had a blast there is also a new version coming out by a different developer I believe on Steam that is a copy of the style but more modern engine. We used this site to download the game: https://playt1.com/

Another really cool game is NeoTokyo on steam and there is a group of people that meet every Friday and weekend to play some matches so it has a small but dedicated base of people keeping it alive, its kinda like cyber punk counter strike!
