    Great job guys. Almost wish I didn't have guests this weekend. Hopefully I will be able to sneak away at some point tomorrow for a small test. But I guess I'll have to wait until Sunday. So all you whiners from the future have it easy!

    Hopefully I'll get it running on my ancient ATi Radeon x1600. Next weekend I'll have my hands on a top of line beast so I'll give that a go too. Will I have problems with installing it on more then one system?

    Anyone need help seeding a torrent, let me know.

    Cheers, and thanks again.

    Welcome to the "i'm so excited" morning rabble!

    and perfect, i shouldn't see why you would have any problems installin it on more than one system buddy.

    So.... even the engine test will require steam, well ok then.
    But do we already have to decide which account our NS2 key will be bound to?



















    i hate steam :/
    still hope for a linux version some day

    You have no idea.

    I'm shaking so I almost can't write this text.

    i think that's mostly due to lack of sleep and food intake :P

    go grab a soda and something to eat, should be fixed right up!

    It's likely going to come after midnight for us europeans, so I wouldn't start wearing out that F5-key just yet.
    Also speaking of what we now know about the engine, the people who have created maps that wants to share them should perhaps get going into getting something organized if they want people to look around in them (I know I want to see what some people have created for sure).
  • NuTTeRNuTTeR Join Date: 2010-04-09 Member: 71227Members
    certainly sounds like a good idea.
    i myself would also love to see what all of the creative minds have in store for us in the early stages.
  • TekoppenTekoppen Join Date: 2008-02-05 Member: 63584Members, NS2 Playtester, Reinforced - Shadow, Subnautica Playtester
    So we should have some sort of community server where we can send the community created maps and everyone can check them out.

    Depending on the player limit of course.
  • NuTTeRNuTTeR Join Date: 2010-04-09 Member: 71227Members
    not totally sure if it would be possible to send them via server, would have to most likely recieve the maps and install them yourself.
    would be a question for a developer to answer i think.
    i'm not very clued up with the whole map scene.
    i just join and play lol.

    There are no map downloads from the server. You need to have the map installed before joining.

    ah so i was close with the first thing i said. :)

    The news post clearly states that it's only the marine with the rifle.

    It hasn't been released yet. You will have to download it from the UWE website or a torrent which will probably appear shortly after release.

    The tilde key is what I'm using in the UK, I wasn't aware that it was different on the mainland. If it helps, it is the same key as you would use in Half-Life 1.

    It isn't out yet. When we do release it it will most likely be around afternoon Pacific time, and there will be a link for you to download it from.

    Yeah ! I'm swiss too, friend !

    I'm very excited too but I don't except something very playable. I don't think there will be bhop or extra move like jump (maybe I'm wrong?). We wont be able to kill but with the custom maps it will be interesting. We'll need to share them before playing indeed.

    I'll test with Wine of course and I hope it'll work. Considering it's cross-platform it should start and play but with some minor graphic issue/perf.
