Title: Edit: 'Far east' gameday the other weekend!
Post by: KyadCK on June 05, 2011, 04:01:20 pm
Test is over

Yesterday we had a gameday from 6:00PM to 9:00PM on June 4th. The problem with this is that this span of time is when far east regions such as Australia and Thailand sleep. So, for the second time we will have a far east gameday. This timeslot may be uncomfortable to some american gamers out there, but rest assured we will have another more western friendly test soon enough.

3 new BP campaign conversions made their debuit yesterday including WIH: 'The Plunder', WIH: 'Post Meridian', and Delenda Est. Each with their own multiplayer friendly twist to keep things fresh. We are also touching up on a conversion of the single player mission 'Universal Truth' a great escort mission near the climax of AoA.   

Note: Please use whatever build is in the bp multi SVN on that day, so we can avoid any unnecessary complications with inconistant builds. Game crashes will therefore be much more infrequent

As a final note, atleast the Cathage's final sights were Saturn's rings and awesome looking Karuna

Hey... that's the day after I graduate. :lol:
Unless anything comes up, should be perfect for me.

YES!!!

That's a fitting graduation present to you from the BPmulti team, especially considering that you've been wanting to play since January.

I will probably miss this :( It's Le Mans (http://www.lemans.org/en/) weekend, the race starts at 2pm BST, and I'll be busy getting provisioning set up to last me through the full 24 hours leading up to that.

Blargh, I don't think I'll be on at that time. Enough offtopicness.

OT: BP multi is awesome and you should play it.

we'll set up an arrangement on IRC later.


OT: Agreed :D


Also, as a side bonus, for any euros planning to attend and maybe play, pending some testing i should be availible for hosting.

Post by: pecenipicek on June 10, 2011, 10:05:03 pm
9 hours to go :p


also, it seems my problems were solved from the hosting side, so i should be able to provide proper hosting for any european and nearby players.

pece can take over early hosting as i will be too tired at 7am (blame my cousins, they wore me out) though obviously having someone there who knows the missions will be important
