Until the release of the Weekly update #003, here's a little teaser pic, a group photo of this week's playtest participants, taken from a slightly different view. Enjoy!

about time ^^
'any kind of discussion of randomness ALWAYS WILL EQUATE to being able to critically hit a mech's reactor by firing a micro beam laser while facing 80 degrees to the side, shooting the ground, which would cause a random explosion which would randomly crit his entire team's reactors which would randomly cause the server itself to explode which would randomly generate a strange quark which would randomly hit the earth and randomly randomness randomfapp the shit fapp random!'

Is this something you guys do before a playtest? Get everyone lined up, and have one of the lead devs talk about whats going on? That's cool if it is, reminds me of some Crysis practices I had with a former clan.

The team has a meeting to discuss the past week's progress before every playtest, however that doesn't take place in game.
We've done some dedicated problem hunting this past playtest that required all or most participants being in close proximity *without* shooting each other, so we thought we'd seize the moment.

I know daily posts must have been a pain in the rear, and irritating questions for all your efforts, but it is good to see something again. I imagine the traffic must have died quite a bit in the forum.

Cool pic, but on the scaling I have to ask the obvious . What is with the size of the suits in comparison to the stripes, and asphalt texture on the road? It looks like chipmunks have fitted themselves with Battle armor. Just keeping the irritating question Mojo going :) Peace

I believe that's one of those things with the map that's "subject to change" down the road as more gets done in other areas ;)

If anyone's interested, here's the audio for this meeting.   ;)


Believing in a political party is not a sign of a person's intelligence, just his willingness to be led about by the nose.
Individual conviction and decisive actions are the signs of true intelligence.

funny you mention that- i fixed the big texture issue a couple days ago- it's an airstrip so that's why the stripes are so big :P

Looks like some of the road construction crews I pass going to work except there isn't even one guy using a shovel.
