Awins, how´s Thursday (after 8pm CEST) or Saturday for you (after 6pmish? CEST) ?
I can make the time, for the next tournament I think it would be a good idea to also post our Steam profile. I don´t have either of the two others on my Steam list. Here is mine by the way. Zuzani and GS feel free to add me: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197961938816
Oh gosh I am sorry, please scrap Monday. I cannot do Monday at all, so preferably Thursday, if someone can´t do Thursday I would be flexbile for Tue/Wed.
Reporting for duty! :-) I´m available on all three days, however 10am would be very much prefered, because depending on how long it will last, my internet situation will change. So I am going to put down Monday and Thursday if that fits with everyone.
So I've had this happen twice now. I couldn't find the replay file, the one in My Documents is a few months old. While Masquerade is on it's possible for names to get swapped. I've experienced this twice now, I've only seen it since the change that the winner is shown in chat. After I bought out the last player it would say that someone else won the game. I assume it's the last player to be bought out, but I can't verify that. The pla
[quote who="Etnos" reply="5" id="3548916"] Not to be mean or anything, but this being a game based on Economy the AI is actually harder than any human player I've encounter so far. [/quote] That's your personal experience, there are quite a few players that are a lot better than the AI. If you're not seeing lobbies it's probably because there are none open, it seems player activity cooled down a bit recently.
See screenshots http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=420525349 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=420525017 The reactor was really close to base where I had 200 water stashed up. However the only water it was getting was from the water pump, at the very edge of the map. --- This had a terrible effect which I could not counter.
I don't think having a link to the steam profile page inside the lobby UI is necessary. However Steam does have a "Show Players" option in the overlay, where it shows people you recently played with. If that were to be implemented that would be more than enough.
[quote who="Cubit32" reply="1" id="3535047"] for 5}, the host is the only person who can see anyone's messages regardless of whether or not they are an observer. [/quote] What? No normal players can talk to eachother via chat. It's not player-host only!
It's an early access game! Stuff will be added, things will be improved - But gameplay is already awesome. That matters the most in my humble opinion.
Two things: 1) Observers are kicked out of the game for most games (technical issue) 2) I think that you can see player resources is actually quite nice, but when clicking on the map nothing happens, that's what I meant with interactivity. If you could take the exact functionality that you have if you're playing the game - when you click on the HQ it shows what buildings are sending to the HQ, the resource lanes - that would be great. 3) When hovering ove
[quote who="Soren_Johnson" reply="11" id="3534968"] Quoting emaise, reply 5 Right now if you leave, you're replaced with an AI who fights until the bitter end. I think the best way to handle resigning is to replace the resigned player with an AI who fights until the bitter end, but is marked as "RESIGNED", a
Zap won vs myself. We were having issues with streamer being kicked out of the game as observers. The one game where Leyla hosted I had incredible latency issues, so we had to play on Zap's host. But the streamers weren't communicating that they'd been kicked out until the games were over! ... Either way, Zap won hands down.
[quote who="Soren_Johnson" reply="6" id="3534774"] that's how it works (well, minus the "RESIGNED" sign) [/quote] If that's how it works I disagree on the decision. That way players can resign just before being bought out and deny the other player their claims+buildings, which is essentially what you are trying to get by spending your cash on buying someone out instead of putting it int your own economy directly.
Saberman I couldn't find you on Steam. Add me here: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197961938816/ I'll be available late tonight, Sunday morning/evening and anytime Monday/Tuesday.
IMPORTANT One thing that I keep forgetting. I actually noticed it was affecting Soren as well during the twitch broadcast today that's why I remembered. It's completely unnatural the way it currently works: active black market actions. The fact that you need to click twice to use it, it should only be a single click. You could see Soren select a hostile action with his mouse and hover over the building to try to use it, to realize that it's not working and
You can tick this off the list, I think it happened again in the latest patch, but it looks to be due to bad handling of a network error. I accidently hit delete again whilst a game was firing up, but it did load for me eventually, so t's not a UI issue.
[quote who="indrkl" reply="1" id="3525120"] one quick thing I'd like to see in multiplayer is to be able to chat after the game, sort of like in Dota 2, where you can gg, troll, complain, give thoughts, whatever. [/quote] I don't think the supporting the growth of a dota-like would be right for this game. Though I do admit the end does seem to be abrupt at times, the chat functionality could be retained until you leave the game.
Scientists all the way. Sometimes robo sometimes scavenger - when the map is low on iron and has some nice carbon spots, but no Expansive, they just don't do it for me yet :P
[quote who="sresk2" reply="15" id="3524735"] I've noticed that being the first to buyout someone can be a disadvantage. I've seen several games where two people are the clear leaders, one of them goes to buy out a cheap straggler for the extra claims, but by dropping all of his cash on that he's now left himself open to being bought by the other guy who now effectively bought out two people. You don't really want to buy someone out just for the claims unless your buying t
[quote who="Soren_Johnson" reply="2" id="3524880"] that is correct. the player who found last gets first crack at the black market (well, unless they wait way too long to found...) [/quote] I noticed this, I'm going by my gut feeling and experience on this. It would be good to have a hard number. It seems to be if you place the HQ after the first auction comes out you get screwed over, anytime before that auction pops up and you get the last founder 10s bla
I'm not sure if it's the last 50%, it seems to be time based as well, just an assumption. I'm pretty sure I got the extra claim when played 3rd out of 8 players.
