Cheers for putting up that server lucutus. I'm fully addicted to this game now

Any idea why my chat doesn't work? I press T and Y and nothing happens.

turn off caps lock (the one you accidently hit) and they should go back to working order. worked for me.

Doesnt seem to be working for me, every server I try I get "Server Timeout: version mismatch or map transfer fail"

Too busy?

No worries, just wanted a go myself tbh Very enjoyable for what it is, certainly a game that leads to those excellent epic gameplay moments, (I was hunting someone in tunnels and they'd fashioned an elaborate trap to shoot down on me from above, it was quite ingenious!), that make games worth playing.

The server is unstable atm, stays running for 4-5 hours or so then dies but I've applied the server hotfix and I'll check in on it anytime I can to restart it.

If the server.exe had command line arguments for players and servername, or configurable in a config file, then at least I could schedule a check for the process every so often and restart it if needed.

Gonna give this a whirl over the weekend!

I haven't been able to join a game since last night. Anyone else having problems?

Anyone wanna try this[URL="aos://4045752147"] server[/URL] I set up and let me know if it works? I can't seem to connect to it here. The 32887 port is fowarded so I'm not sure if it's just me.

I can't but i haven't been able to connect all day

Huh. Yeah, the servers are kinda like that. It could just be my server though. I'll leave it running anyway, maybe someone can connect.

One of life's great mysteries isn't it? Why are we here? I mean, are we the product of some cosmic coincidence? Or is there really a God, watching everything. You know, with a plan for us and stuff. I don't know man, but it keeps me up at night.

I think we need to set up teams, who will actually keep constant communication and help create strategies! Its kind of each man for himself out there atm!

This game is damn good fun. Can't wait until the server connection issues are gone, and rocket launchers / mortars are introduced.

Played it last night for HOURS. It's really addictive. Something really rewarding about building your own turret in the middle of the map's crossing point and then shooting people. This must be why there are so many wars.

citizen_p

from what I see the pesky greens are the invaders (start off near rivers) and are trying to cature the blue high ground (mountains). :pac:

it would also be cool if you could move the spawns a little closer or choose a spawn sight, front line (near middle of the map) or homebase.

Pyr0

How do I get this started?

I keep getting "server connection failed: It is either full of misconfigured" for every attempt.

Krieg

Will be sweet once the servers are sorted. Im sticking to the TIG server despite having a fair amount of griefers, Ive found that if you try logging in every 60 seconds you will eventually get in, but could take 5 mins.

I didnt stop playing til half 6 this morning!

Only up about an hour,

ah well...

there goes my sunday.

Movable spawn points would definitely be good. Maybe a special brick that you can lay, you spawn there until you place another of those bricks elsewhere in another life, or until an enemy destroys the brick.

Tactical Insertions!! :P
Sounds good though.

Pretty good craic! It's funny hearing digging noises, check your map, no allies around then begin to hunt for the snake tunneling his way towards your base.

It's hilarious digging your way through a hill to come across 3 or 4 lads building defenses, then killing them all in an ambush :pac:

I was digging towards their flag and suddenly fell through into a cave and landed right beside it. The cave was nicely laid out with a few long windows to shoot out of. All of which were occupied by the enemy team. So I quickly grab the flag, dig out and cover my tracks without them even seeing me. I was giggling away to myself thinking of the moment they turn around and see the prize they were defending is gone

I'm sure this'd be great if I could actually join a server.

Which version are you guys using? 0.26 doesn't work for me but when I use 0.22 I can join but there's no terrain, just the text and a grey background.

EDIT: Nevermind, finally managed to get into a server using IE. It's good, alright. Digging out trenches or tunneling into the green base is quite tense.

Good game. Lots of cheating going on though. I've only played maybe 5 games and I've seen people floating through walls, invincible, and just there loads of grenades fell out of nowhere like a bloody carpet bombing.

Aye its gameruining. Despite the latest update having anti-cheat controls, I'm doubtful. Fix that, the connection issues and there's a great game waiting behind it.

Even if cheating was solved, there are still plenty of griefers, Im waiting until private servers are released.

Ugh that too, I was building a moate by a river and someone from my own team started destroying everything. Turned out he was playing with some other lads on the other team. Pure crap! This game's an alpha too so it'll only get better

I spent, about half an hour, literally, making an epic tunnel under their intel. When I finally broke through, I was greeted by 2 grenades
