Post 8

i hate to piss on the time table - but Brink is out in a week...

Post 9

Thats not very nice Aegis. We worked hard on that timetable, and now we need to remove all your piss :P

How many people are going to have it before the end of the month?

Post 10

like 2 millions.... or at least most GU'ers will have it.

Post 11

Thanks Ratty, I would prefer to narrow that down to people who will be attending DGA at the end of the month :)

Post 12

it's the one shitty thing about steam (aside from region fucking) - that you can't see which of your friends have pre-ordered a game without going into their actual profiles to check. But I know damn near everyone on my friends list has bought it. Hell even Kernal has and he can't play games anymore ;)

Post 13

Post 14

RakeR thanks for the heads up today, signed up and keen to get back to a LAN again.

Post 26

+1 brink

pala would raise his too i guess

have to note, played it the last few hours and not one crash. Only one audio dropout (which isn't such a biggie because that affects everyone equally).

Cool. See you there if not before.

Post 30

I'm going to bring along a customized Doom 2 for some old school fps FFA fun, if anyone is keen during the free time, also if there is interest I'll run a Rocket Area 3 server. I'll bring all the server configs, files and have the VMs ready to go, let me know at the LAN.

^^ Prob shoulda asked this first, admins ok with me doing this?

Post 31

All Good Vorly.

We have a Quake 3 Area server already setup, so maybe provide the configs and files for RA in case we don't have them.

Happy for DOOM 2 to run on the network. Would be interesting to see how that plays now after such as long time.

Post 32

I've got more than 22 server batch files ready, all related to Q3A, All gametypes, many mods, public, private, all come with their own rcon password (for the private servers).

with a call from Dragon about CTF servers, the default maps for Q3A are maxed to 8v8 (16), so this will require some custom maps of which I've got sorted and will be available over the networks (Game with integrated CDKey, game update, and maps the server will be using)

Detailed statistics will be generated for these servers, a record script is also available so you can record demos and give them to me at the end of the night so they can goto the statistics...

so frag more, die less and most of all, have fun and enjoy yourself.

Wishful have you got the config for Clan Arena server?

I play that online with Quake Live most of the time.

Yes, I do have a server config for CA, however it is not default with Q3A, you will need the mod OSP to play the mode CA, download here: http://www.sunflow.com/orangesmoothie/downloads/osp-Quake3-1.03a-without_maps.zip
