About 3 1/2 hours left to preorder if you haven't already.

Read this:

In order for you to play tonight, you'll need to redeem a Steam code that enables the Special Edition black armor and grants you access to the alpha. We will be e-mailing you these codes and instructions at approximately 6pm PDT (GMT-7).

You may be able to download NS2 before you get this e-mail, but you'll get an error message if you try to play before entering this code for the first time. You will only have to do this once and it's only for the alpha.

That's 9pm EST, I expect to see you all on vent at that time, already having eaten dinner and ready to poopsock the night away.

If they release the dedicated server software I'll get one up ASAP for us to play on. The People's Republic of Shenanigan's NS2 server will exist.



PS: Dibs on having froggeh on my team.

Worst timing for hardware failure, ever.  My bluetooth chip short circuited and fried the motherboard in the process.  There are scorch marks inside my computer's case Cry

I wonder if my old laptop will be able to handle it, I'll try a ton of console tweaking.

I should have a dedicated server up this afternoon. I think almost all of the problems we were experiencing last night will go away once latency is no longer an issue. When I was on my home-hosted dedicated server alone I could run the game very smoothly at medium level. It looks like they have a lot of netcode optimization to do.

Dedicated server, until fixed, is impossible currently. As it turns out you cannot run an NS2 server on one computer and play NS2 on another, as both actions require Steam to be running and logged in as you. Anyone have a really fast home internet connection you can host on?
