Welcome to the BTPro OpenTTD Community

This community was build around the game: OpenTTD
OpenTTD is an (Free) open source simulation game based upon Transport Tycoon Deluxe

 

!!! Please note that a few servers have been shut-down !!!
Most of the times these servers were doing nothing (no players),
that's why I've decided to slim down the number of OpenTTD servers running.

I have made a selection to keep the most popular servers online.
If you miss a OpenTTD server that you REALLY played a lot, please do post
in the forums. I will then check if I can get it back online!

I'm trying to work from now on with only 1 physical server to
run all OpenTTD instances!

The following servers have been shut down recently:

1, 2, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15 & 18

We are badly looking for moderators!

Want to be part of the team?! Want to help?! Read below...

 
NOTE:
Admins will act on the basis that ALL players know the game and it's mechanics.
We think that no one goes to an online game without first some practice and know how to play it.
Companies without registered nicknames (as shown in Client List) on it, can be reset without warning!
To learn OpenTTD mechanics, there is a forum/wiki and... a Single Player mode!!
Practice before playing on BTPro, and if you decide to start, READ THE RULES first.

 
If you wish to become part of the BTPro Server Operator family, ensuring that the rules are upheld with fairly and justly,
the willingness to teach new players on how to play the game and to make sure BTPro is one of the most relaxed,
entertaining servers out there for OpenTTD then apply in the Moderator Applications section below!

Also do not hesitate to ask us a question in the forums or when you see us online on one of the servers!

Happy Gaming!

Too few ordinary servers 6 years 9 months ago #6145

I counted 9 ordinary servers where only 2 has a desirable goal (Long goal) since they're always running/have ppl in it. On the other hand theres atleast 13 city builder servers which rarely no one is on. Is there a chance the number and type servers could match the need?

Yes, thats my point. Why so few desirable servers and so many no one plays on? Each time I wanna play they're already years into a game and I cant compete. You should have had 2-3 more Long Goal servers so theres a bigger chance there is a free server just like your city builder servers

the Citybuilders are the most popular. Just an example:

OpenTTD doesn't have a player base that big to increase number of servers like there's no tomorrow AND dedicated servers aren't cheap. Therefore, we try to have a large variety of servers and goals, with the amount of servers we consider reasonable by their popularity.
Just imagine that other people that gets in a game already at middle of the goal and would post here for a couple more servers!
If it's your case, you have 3 options when a game is mid goal: Start company and try your best; wait till goal is reached; join another game/server.

Current situation (Long goals):
#2: 0% of goal
#5: 50% of goal, but nobody plays, you can reset it
#9: no players
K1: 16% - far, far away from finish

Not so bad.
And I see similar situation every day.
Like ST2 said: start company and compete, or wait a while to finish.

Why not try to beat highscores on shorter goals first? #1 or #4.

tomb mentioned another option (I forgot xD), specially when server is without players (many start company and leave). When that's the case, you can use !voterestart to get a new and clean map :)
