Wow, WTF? Just because you cannot subscribe, it means you cannot play?

Kinda unfair on those who physically cannot subscribe, though.

Then why not add a waiting list? Say, if the server is at max capacity, other people can still join but are restricted to watching the game, not joining. They will be placed in this "Waiting List" then, waiting for a spot. Ofc, subscribers will be able to jump to the front of the queue, but I don't think a non-subscriber should be kicked out mid-game. Perhaps at the end of the match, the non-subscriber would enter the waiting list to make room for the sub.

The hub already has a waiting list.
If people could still join a server while it's at max capacity then the player cap wouldn't really there for any reason. People sitting on the title screen still use up server bandwidth, bandwidth which should be going to the people currently playing. Also, as of this posting there are three servers up right now, only one of them is full. There's still plenty of room for free players to get in. You could also throw up your own server if you wanted, one with custom match settings and so on. The game files are available to everyone. | |

I love this game but you could make the controls better and let the charcters move a little faster. Also their should be armor that can be upgraded. Might I add their should be more modes like 1 on 1. 1 on 3. And so on....... Character movement is fine, if we moved faster bleeding would hold little meaning. New weapons and armor should be for modes like Survival where people aren't PK'd, since guns are pretty much balanced now. NeonJ wrote: Then why not add a waiting list?

I agree with this, a while back last year I kicked MDC out of a Deathmatch he would of won by logging in. Though its nice to be able to instantly log in and play... | |

Beta server is up as well as the master server. Unless there are any serious issues I'll release the final 1.4 update by Monday.

You should let us keep track of our current K/D ratio since logging in.

Alright, I'm in top 100. Oh, and here's a funny bug SAx. It's rather large, so I won't post it here, but the link is here:

I've seen it happen a few times. It's just a visual glitch, not very serious. Thanks for the tip, but for future reference please post bug reports here.
| |
SuperAntx , are you going to ever add Gun attachments and/or Perks/Feats System?
| |
Perks are technically already in the game, they're just dormant. I was originally going to have rank-based and weapon-based perks but cut the feature in order to release the game in a timely manner.
Someday I may flesh out a full perks system, but that wont be in the near future. | |
Thanks and one more question , these perks , would we keep them? or do we have to buy them every round? or what happens , or what do you think you will do with them and how to earn them.
| |
Don't know, there's no perk interface or mechanic for managing perks.
Like I said, they're just dormant variables. The only way to toggle them is with debug commands which aren't included in live versions. | |
Ok Thanks , Well good luck with your game , it's really "Bad-ass". :P
| |
If you are going to do perks, you need to find a way to keep the game balanced still.
