Very cool! Unfortunately I was the only person on the server, so all I could really do was run around and shoot walls. (I did manage to commit suicide!)
I liked the depth of field change type thing when you start running, but when I turned, it would turn off abruptly. I think a smoother return to normal would be less noticeable.

 

I don't have a facebook :/

Is that the only way to play? looks really fun.

 

Make a smaller map to start with. I was in a game with 1 other dude for 4 rounds and we never found each other.

 

I also got on to find I was the only one online, but I guess that should have been assumed since it was only recently released. I did entertain myself by shooting exploding barrels though

 

I have received a few messages from people saying that 1) Quickplay wasn't working and 2) The main scoreboard wasn't displaying the correct score for a team.

I'm here to report that #2 has been resolved and I am in the process of working out #1.

Good day to you all!

Edit: Both of those issues have now been resolved. Happy hunting!

 

Needs bots that can be replaced by connecting players that see your server listed in the lobby.

 

Nice video!

 

Nice game

 

Our hardest part is trying to get people all on at the same freaking time, it's very slow going and we almost have no one on the game... ever, any suggestions from the community?

 

Yay for successfully being approved for Kongregate.com everyone!

LET THE BETA GAMES BEGIN

We might be setting up designated beta testing times here very shortly that will be visible on the front page of the game, but until them its open game time.

 

We threw away this project everyone, and then proceeded to rewrite this entire game from the ground up a few months back. New and much faster level, way more weapons, no bugs, better networking, clay-more mines, remote c4, riot shields, new characters, 100% working camera sheering (so no more cheating), auto balance, spectate mode and much much more.

More details and uploads within the week.

Thanks!

 

I liked the explosion impact wave =)

Some early WIP renders of our next map release (PrisonEscape - The maze like interior, exterior complete with reck room, holding cells, cafeteria, showers, library and basement tunnels for quick "if you dare" access to all points of the map). Each interior / exterior has been carefully setup to have three or more entrances and exits while keeping the map balanced for team play and length / effort it takes to reach each site of the map. Enjoy.

​

More to come. Thanks.
