Operation Suckerpunch: We need everyone this evening (26th) (server stresstest)

[Jona]

Will try to hop on with my not-at-all-gaming-optimized laptop. I expect many crashes, however (that are in no way your fault).

Many people in the states are traveling due to thanksgiving... obviously you guys are hoping for more EU guys to show since low ping and such, but perhaps this isn't the best time?

Call in sick you damn fool

[Tuetensuppe]

We're not announcing it on the social channels etc want to try and contain it within the community for now, when we've tested it properly we can throw it out there into the sphere.

Feel free to invite your friends though! (Get them to make forum accounts, it might be needed but it's not 100% yet).

Call me horrible, but I get the huge feeling that you could achieve the same amount of hype/respect, if not more, by just blowing something you've already done out of proportion.

I hope I'm wrong, but it seems like way too early or late to do this.

It would make a lot more sense to get something you've already done and show it off as best you can, or to detail some ambition without actually doing it.

If you couldn't sell a concept without putting it into action, idk what you're doing on Kickstarter!

I'll try to be awake by 8 AM, but no guarantees.

[Erasmas]

OMG Ill be there

I will put announcement on GO/DRZ TS as well...

 

[cup457]

so do we find out how to join tomorrow?

[Erasmas]

The things we are aiming for: an area of 20*20km (=400km^2). Player mining resources and building castles. 500 to 1000 players online at the same time, in the same server. Probably no combat yet (thats gonna take a few more days), but at least a simple placeholder (think pewpew).

I just realized I kinda love you guys 

[WITCHCRAFT]

can i call in sick to thanksgiving

is that a thing

[no_rules_just_play]

I will be there

[Hecur]

I need a download link and a teamspeak IP 

[no_rules_just_play]

I need a download link and a teamspeak IP 

Ah yes, If we want the regulars to join as well they need to be able to download the game and that takes a while!

edit: and I need it as well because I can't find the link anymore!

[lombardsoup]

The waiting is painful.
