QMB means we will eventually get FMB!

 

This is the best kind of news so far. Squad mission makers will be very busy this week.

 

Thank you, Devs! Looks like you listen to your community afterall. I am very pleased with this.

QMB in all honour, I give you that but this sim is performing badly and its presently not moving forward.

Instead it is using its recourses to please FPS gamers. We have seen before and it will end up badly IMHO! I am getting a bad feeling about this.

But I will leave the discussion here and now and return in a week or so to see if there is any improvement.

The rest on PM please.

Nothing is going to change drastically in a week. You shouldn't be involved in alpha/early release products if you expect that.

MM if you seriously think this sim is performing badly then you need to take a break, don't log in for say 4 months until the hard work is pretty much done.

 

Then feel free to log in and bang on about what you think is fatally flawed with this 'game'.

I think you'll be a lone voice somehow as most people think this 'game' is the best thing to happen to combat flight sims in a long while.

Now we have TWO weeks of development lost due to this MP sh@it !

I am very disappointed.

 

Master

 

 

You are perfectly right. There is no pleasing me with this " game" stuff.

FPS gamers have many games to choose from, let my simulation alone!

You need to really calm down ...

Looks to be a great update, can't wait to try it out. Really liking the 24/7 part.

 

Still wish the graphic presets would disappear again though =P

What on earth are you talking about?

Are you saying that the QMB (giving you the ability to set up your own SINGLE PLAYER scenarios) is "game stuff" ???

What is it that you want (demand) from this simulation that you can't yet do?

Man im glad you asked this as this was my exact question i think MM is just doing that thing that ryhmes with polling.

Has there ever been an update thread wtihout it?

Well, everyone has different priorities, MM. For most I'd say the QMB is huge news, and MP has already pleased a lot of people. Anyway, check back in when you feel like it. Personally I'm really looking forward to setting up some gunnery practice in the QMB and playing around with different time and weather settings.

 

Anyway, this is all besides the point. Let's all move on.

QMB! <3

Wow awesome. Thanks guys.

Gentlemen, we need your help today. This is what Loft has been talking about earlier.

Well, tonight (Moscow time evening, approximately 16:00 GMT) we will set up a debugging server in Europe. It will have a lot of visual effects turned off, but that's okay - we're testing connection performance, not graphics.

So, we kindly ask you to keep this server busy for an hour or so. It's going to have 64 slots so it shouldn't be difficult. Anyway please, login and play multiplayer if you have time to help us. When the test is complete we'll set up proper gaming servers.

I will be there, Zak!

 

Do we test with the current game version, or will there be a new version for the test?

Not able to log in atm. Are the Servers offline? Is a new built underway?

Was up to support the MP stress test... :mellow:  

Posted

Ditto. The launcher checks the version, then allows play, but the login then throws up an error.

Posted

I'll be there hopefully :D

Posted

... as it is 16:30 GMT already, the MP stress test has a delay. Any new time announcement would be helpful.

Me too. I utterly suck in MP. But for the sake of some fun and support of the Project I need jump over my shadow  ;)

I'll second that, count me in.

Really appreciate your professional way to handle all the stuff! From the very beginning until now there is a continous progress. And most of all I like your decision of today to set up a test server with less graphics to narrow down the MP lagging issues!

Finally : 7/24!!! TY.

S!

 

 Have fun guys :) In the middle of moving to a new home so no time to play :(

Those damn reindeer, don't they have any igloos to go to?

 

:P

All good news, thanks guys!!!

same here , most likely not ready yet , we have to wait.

Forgive me for asking for more when we just got QMB and MP 24/7 , but when will we be able to host our own servers for duels. I have to practice for first BoS Gladiators tournament :). Which will most likely happen by the end of this year ( nothing official , just my wishful thinking). Seeing so many good players from Rise of Flight playing and dominating BoS multiplayer makes me think it's going to be really tough in MP. Making it so much more fun and challenging. I am already enjoying myself in it's current early form. Thanks Devs.

Multiplayer - Check

Quick Mission Builder - Check

 

What we miss now is a "private" host feature to host our own lobbies in MP!

Any ETA on that ? :)


As always gret work @devs, keep it up!
