[quote=“creativeAtom;5358”] any information about the intervals between waves?

There is no real pattern. We let people in based on a lot of different variables. We will probably do another wave soon though.

and, As I understand even If I have the key the servers are not online 24/7
when then? [/quote]
March 6th-9th is our next testing period. Then a short time after that the beta will be live 24/7

@MissMurder can we get more information about the Limited Edition Reward? Will we get one Obsidian card for each merc, one random Obsidian card or one card that we actually want to use?

That is music to my ears. B)

Sure! So you will get one card and it will be random.

;/ that’s the worst of those 3 options… is this final or are you at least considering letting us choose which card we want?


(Nail) #66

it’s free, be happy not greedy


(Rimmorn) #67

Yea I know and I’m ok with one card, it’s just that the odds of getting the card for a merc you’re going to use aren’t very high. I can see the RNG Gods giving me a card for Vassili and that’s going to be the last time I see it because I’m not going to play with him.

It just makes me feel “meh” about it.


(Nail) #68

there may be a time when you’ll be able to trade/sell unwanted cards then it won’t matter, but you still have a very rare card that most people may never get


(Nail) #69

btw, picking just 1 merc to play may not be your best plan

Actually medics are useful on any map so focusing on one would still help the team, next would be engis as they are not that useful only in 3rd stage on Train and Chapel so far.


(MissMurder) #71

Sorry @Rimmorn :confused: I’ll let you know if anything changes.

(Phantom) #76

Well I can’t post links XD but to quote “it’s happening!”


(nudels) #77

one more day, I really hope that the matchmaking system is better this time and that there is other maps, more or other mercs. Last test, the matchmaking was a disaster, especially if only one team decided to team up…


(GildedDark) #78

CANT WAIT FOR TOMORROW!!! SCHOOL GETS OUT EARLY SO I’LL BE PLAYIN DIRTY!!!


(neg0ne) #79

" matchmaking was a disaster" …???
Well, from what i experienced, most of the games i played - i would even say almost all - were very close.
So if i do my math : close game = good game , SD did a great job in - whatever they did or did not here - finding a mythological legerdemain to equal teams up.

in some game i had unplayable pings but…hey its a test.

The main issue I had with matchmaking was it randomly dumping everyone out to the main screen and needing to queue up again. That typically happened when there was less than 5v5. But then sometimes the match would start 4v5 and the 4v5 team would never gain a new player which usually caused others to quit out due to just getting steamrolled.
