How about focusing on fixing the servers first? I don't know how many of us are having serious lag problems on the servers, but it gets to the point where it becomes unplayable. Why not get that shit fixed first? This is the only game I really play, but am getting tired of the non stop lag spikes, and am playing less and less. It also has nothing to do with my specs. I get 18mbps on average, and I don't lag on other games. I also see other posts, and it effects people with different hardware isps etc. Also I didn't have much of a problem with lag spikes until after the steam update screwed everything up and then dled the patch for crpg after that.

Then you should ask Talesworld or Steam, but not chadz.

sounds fun! reminds me of power struggle in crysis, where you have to hold power plants in a huge battlefield style map in order to get access to better weapons including nukes to blow up enemy base and win. like that but medievil ;)

power struggle = one of the funniest multiplayer modes ever imo.

lets just hope you can code this decent because I imagine it will be EXTREMELY hard.

That spawn rape thing should be sorted out. Was great fun though, the build mechanism and the way everything works is quite easy to work out with a bit of guidance, I think a little page on how things work would be all that was needed to get people with my intelligence level running around on it successfully!

Some great stuff in the Stronghold, with a group of 60 vs 60, if the fps issues are sorted will be tremendous fun. I can't wait for the full release let alone playing the beta again!

Edit: Some great screens there Varric.

We are currently considering doing a not-closed-but-not-open-beta-either this weekend. Truth to be told, we simply can't test all of the game techniques with 10 players - the game is supposed to be played with 100 people :)

Not yet sure how we'll determine who will get access, as we only need 50 to 100 players, stay tuned.
