Плацдарм: a CS2 capture-the-point server on de_dust2

Плацдарм ("bridgehead") is the FrontHell server with a mode of its own: one point on the map and two teams that want it. The point is an antenna with a ring around it. Stand in the ring, take the point, hold it for three minutes in all, and the round is yours; the next round is fought for another place on the map. The shop on F3 is the same as on the other servers, all of it. One thing is switched off here: the tank.

How the point is taken and held

The ring shows whose the point is: white is nobody's, red is the terrorists', blue is the counter-terrorists'. To take a point that is not yours, stand in the ring for 5 seconds with no enemy in it. A capture that was not finished rolls back.

Each team has its own clock. It runs while the point is the team's, somebody of the team stands in the ring and no enemy is in it. When both teams are in the ring everything stands still, the capture and the clocks, and the ring blinks red and blue.

If the holders leave the ring, their clock stops, and 5 seconds later the point becomes nobody's and has to be taken again. Come back sooner and nothing is lost. The seconds a team has gained stay with it even when the point is lost.

How a round ends

The team whose clock reaches 180 seconds wins the round. The seconds are counted in all, not in a row. A round lasts 12 minutes at most: then the team with more seconds wins, and with equal seconds the team that holds the point. If the point is nobody's at that moment, there are 2 more minutes until the first capture; with no capture the round is a draw.

Then comes a pause of 15 seconds. The buildings are removed, everybody returns to the bases, and the antenna stands in another place. The panel on the left of the screen shows both clocks, the name of the place and what is happening on the point.

Buildings and money

A round pays 3000 to the winners and 1000 to the losers; a draw pays 1000 to everybody. Standing on your own point pays 50 every 5 seconds. Kills and hits pay as on the other servers.

Nothing can be built inside the ring: the point is taken by people, not by turrets. Around it, build what you like. In this mode a building stays when its owner dies, until the round ends.

The client stays stock and VAC-secured: the menu, the models and the sounds are one Steam Workshop pack the game fetches on joining. The server speaks English, Russian and Ukrainian and picks the language of your game.

FAQ

Questions and answers

How do I connect to Плацдарм?

Press "Play" on this page (a steam://connect link), or open the game console and type connect 91.211.118.64:27016, or search for "FrontHell" in the community server browser. Nothing to install: the Workshop pack downloads on joining.

What is the server's IP address?

91.211.118.64:27016. The second FrontHell server in Kyiv has the same IP and the port 27015, so the port matters.

How long does a team have to hold the point?

180 seconds in all. The seconds do not have to be in a row, and they are not lost when the other team takes the point.

What happens when both teams stand on the point?

Everything stops: nobody captures and no clock runs. The ring blinks red and blue until one team is left in it.

Are there tanks on this server?

No, the tank is the one thing switched off on Плацдарм. Everything else is in the shop: turrets, lasers, mines, walls, nets, dispensers, money boxes, teslas, air defence, the Grad, the mortar, the ballistic strike and both drones. The tank is on the other FrontHell servers.

Where does the server stand?

In Kyiv, the nearest place for players from Ukraine.
