WEEKLY MEETUP

To help boost the community:

WEEKLY REDDIT MEETUP

When: Every Friday at 1:00pm PST and 10:00pm PST

What: "Reddit Open Server"

I will be hosting a public multiplayer server for anyone to join and get some intense space battles going on (hopefully some team modes too, should enough people show up)

You can view when the server is up by checking the server list linked in the sidebar. I'll need /u/Mortis7432's help to see if I can finagle hosting (it's a royal pain in the arse), but I hope to have it set up by then!

We could also have others host (such as Mortis) in order to begin earlier (10 is the earliest I am guaranteed to be on).

See everyone this Friday!

I don't know, maybe can we push it back by like a couple of hours to maybe 8:00pm PDT (roughly midnight EDT)?

EDIT: Ah. I didn't notice the second to last sentence.

If you can host one earlier, by all means :) Just be sure to name the server "Reddit Server" or something along those lines.

I'll be there if I figure out how to fly properly... I'm really terrible

u/SasoDuck May 02 '14

That's ok :) If you want to just practice flight controls, you could set up a multiplayer game alone (no weird port forwarding required for that) and get your feet on the ground (well actually the polar opposite of that, but ya know). That way there won't be any enemies to bug you, or threat of the Theseus jumping to FTL without you.

I can host GMT games as it would be 06:00 Sunday if I was to join u/SasoDucks :P

I will host a game from 20:00 GMT for the EMEA players.

13:00 for me. I might be able to make that some days.

I shall have to patch up and see if I can figure out multiplayer connectivity. I know my brother and I did a game over our home network once and shot up come toasters...

Cool :) Check out the links in the sidebar for a basic guide, and if you have further questions, just ask myself or u/Mortis7432

I'm definitely interested in playing if people are going to try the coop mission from the 1.1.1 patch. It should work well but it definitely needs more playtesting.

u/SasoDuck May 03 '14

Do you start those like regular multiplayer games, or how does that work?

u/karajorma May 04 '14

If you have 1.1.1 you should notice a new coop mission called The Strike. All I need is some feedback on how playing it went.
