Hello everyone.
In this thread, I'd like to announce that we're setting up weekly development games! The games will be held each Sunday, from the North American perspective. Here are the available time slots that I'd think would work well:
12 PM EST. Equivalent to 5 PM (17:00) GMT. Should work for our European players.
6 PM EST. Equivalent to 11 PM (23:00) GMT. Should work for our North American players.
12 AM EST. Equivalent to 5 AM (5:00) GMT. Should work for our Pacific players.
We have multiple servers set up for use. Generally, we'd like to hold games on the official North American server, but if your ping isn't that great there, we can hold games on the Quake.Fr server (European) or Aussie Assault (Pacific). We're only asking for everyone to come around for a single match at those time slots, but if you have the time, feel free to keep playing!
In this thread, let everyone know which times you'll be playing at by publicly pledging for one or more of the available time slots. If we all know that we can expect other people to be on, we'll have a better chance of getting people in-game. These development games will be a great opportunity for everyone involved, as you'll be able to play against other people instead of bots, and you can develop your skills as we continue to develop the game. You'll get to meet us all, too!
I think I'll be available for pretty much all three of those slots on Sundays. I'll try to make it to all of them, but I'll definitely always be around for the third slot, which would be at midnight for me. I always stay up pretty late.
