What type of server are you into.

Is it the type of normal server or the RP, Bulid types Or maybe the ones that involve godmode like how Source OP works in some Deathmatch Servers.


But anyway their all great choices, but i would choose Garry's mod at least then you can get zombie survival in the mix

I haven't played GMod in quite awhile (And by "quite awhile", I mean more than 5 months), this could get me playing again.
Also, why don't we have a schedule? Something like: "Sandbox on Teusday, ZombieRP on Monday", or however you'd like it to be set up.

I would probably make a build server if it was on Garry's Mod. I would most likely install all of the addons I can find on Facepunch. :/

I never favored RP servers, I didn't really think they were that fun.

Team Fortress 2... easily 'Boose.

Welp, just read the thread and since you're going with GMOD make it ZS... or something like that.

If you were to build a server, a bone dry minimal mod build server would be nice. the build servers I see nowadays are just laden with forced downloads and various lua scripts that change the entire play from server to server, sometimes for worse. I voted for a CSS server, seeing how all of my faves are in serious decline. TF2 would be a good choice too, but it's your server.
