North American Game Night - Anyone Interested?


(Anti) #41

Are you doing one this Friday or does it start next Friday? And at what time?


(meat) #42

I think my work schedule is going back to normal, which means Thursday, and Fridays off. I can pretty much play anytime before 10pm.

We’ve already reach a potential of 9 regulars on Friday at 10:00 PM Eastern, so I suggest we give it a shot this week and see how it goes…

*** For all those interested, Friday June 21, 10:00 EDT on the USA Veteran (SW) server.
*** See you there!

And feel free to show up earlier if you’re available for a bit of warmup :cool:

I beat you to the punch and proposed a Friday Night Scrim already in the competition forum earlier today: http://forums.warchest.com/showthread.php/36560-Friday-Night-Scrim-(NA)-June-21st?p=452779#post452779

Please post in that thread if you can make it!

I certainly don’t mind someone else taking the lead on this, but why do it in a separate thread and confuse things? And why in the comp forum? I’m not a comp player and never read that forum. Maybe I’m the only one, or maybe by doing so you’re limiting the potential pool of participants…

In order not to leave anyone stranded, can we agree to use an open server (not PW protected) and let anyone join in?

I’m pretty much with spookify…until things get better you can count me out until the game is fixed rather then wasting time adding invisible players and stupid shockguns. Unreal engine was a poor choice, I’m sure idtech 4 was able to be used by now considering they have id tech 5. You would have been better off IMO, or even doing a call of duty and super-coding idtech 3. Unreals netcode is basically trash and the randomness is never going to go away when it comes to dying and hit reg. I just can’t enjoy the game the way it is now :(. As much as I wanted this game to succeed and be awesome, from the video I was expecting a classic, but were just heading down the brink road again.

up to you if you want to try help or not, certainly woudn’t miss your constant bitchin and negativity, but I’m pretty sure that won’t stop

I posted the Friday Night Scrim thread before you suggested that we try this Friday, this thread did not say anything about a specific day, it wasn’t like I was trying to make two separate threads. It appeared to me this thread was simply for finding the availability of players.

There simply was no suggestion for Friday night so I took the initiative and made a thread specifically for this Friday. You then posted a second idea for Friday night. I feel like making it a competition match would be a better test of the game, just pubbing doesn’t help me too much as far as figuring out what kind of feedback I want to give to SD.

Once again, in no way am I trying to derail your efforts, you simply didn’t post until after I did.

Edit: I’m not against having a pub match it just isn’t nearly as interesting to me, had you posted your suggestion first I would not have even tried to make a scrim. How about we warm up in the pubs and if people want to make a scrim of it, we can make teams and move over to the match server?


(Hundopercent) #52

Mon - Fri: Anything after 20:00 EST.
Sat and Sun, whenever.

I guess it was all bad timing. By the time I got home last night to see that we might finally have enough people interested to make something out of it, your thread was already up, but I was unaware of it… :frowning:

The only reason I suggest to keep it public for now is the low number of responses: if everybody who said they are available Friday evening so far showed up, we would barely be able to play 4on4. But I suspect that if we have half a dozen people or more on a public server, others might join in unannouced. If this takes off and we end up with a bunch of regulars, there will be plenty of opportunity for scriming later :wink:

You know, scrims atm are more or less glorified/organized ffa (exagerating a bit).
There are players of all levels in them.
A voice com with all your team on it really makes the game more enjoyable imo (plus you’ll be able to get to know your fellow american players better).


(DB Genome editor) #55

Well our first attempt last night turned out to be a bit disappointing with only 4 people showing up at 10:00 and a peak of 6 if I’m not mistaken :frowning:
(for those keeping tabs that’s about 50% of those who had chimed in as available Friday evening)

Then again the announcement was a bit last minute so I’ll be the unfettered optimist and assume we’ll get better results as we go…

Hopefully we’ll see you all next Friday.


(ImageOmega) #56

Anyone reading this that wants to play tonight? If, yes, post a time in EST. I am thinking 10pmEST.


(DB Genome editor) #57

For the record, Saturday evening is currently 3rd in the availability feedback with 8 recorded potentials. I won’t be able to make it though, away for the weekend…


(Aseph) #58

I posted another Friday Night Scrim thread for next Friday, go post your availability if you can: http://forums.warchest.com/showthread.php/36586-Friday-Night-Scrim-(NA)-June-28th?p=453054#post453054

As for tonight, I’ll be online off and on and I’ll probably be in mumble.


(DB Genome editor) #59

Thanks Aseph! I updated the original post with the info and link.


(DB Genome editor) #60

Bumping this back to the front page, hopefully we can drum up a bit of interest for tonight.

Post here if you can be available on a regular basis and check Aseph’s thread to sign-up for tonight:
