Can we expect to see any more public Doom 3 servers? I'm planning to buy this today, and was looking forward to seeing more than one Multiplay server.

Thanks.

When they sort out the piss poor server code yes! Currently it's only possible to run one server process per CPU! 100% usage...joy.

Running on a Dual 2.8ghz Xeon with 2gb memory.

Doesn't matter how many players are in the game (even 0), it still uses 100% of one CPU regardless.

Great isn't it. :)

Don't forget the 4 KB per SECOND memory leak.

That's not a leak... that's a water main!

Does anybody know if there is any sort of dediacated server console or app that will run DS without having to go through the game menu system.

What I am wanting to do is launch a D3 server on a machine but the pc is in a rack with no monitor thus terminal service has to be used (or RadMin).

Andy1 help????

"doom3.exe +dedicated 1 +exec server.cfg" i think, or something close
