IF SERVERS ARE DOWN

We have set up an emergency hotline email address at [email protected]
This mail address forwards mails to a select number of individuals that can hopefully fix problems. Since there might be many players reporting an issue to this mail do NOT expect a personal reply when using it. It is only for reporting issues with servers/website.
That being said:
As a Core Tester I expect you to be and act mature.
If you can’t behave, keep the information from Core private, etc. I will remove your access and in worst cases, action will be taken against your account.
If you’re never online or never help as Core, odds are you will get removed.
If you’re in doubt about something, just msg me.

Tonight we will meet on Prototype which will hold a build with the improved Assault game mode (internally called Assault 2.0).
Along with that comes a major overhaul of all assault-type game maps. The map changes are not fully finished, have a lot of obvious bugs and are currently in internal testing – so please don’t report map issues yet.

In tonight’s session we will fully focus on the new spawn mechanics. I will give you a brief introduction on TS and then we will perform one multiplayer test per assault map.

PS: Please make sure that you have uninstalled your current prototype version entirely before downloading the new build. Also, please don’t attempt a login before 17:30 as we are in the process of changing the builds, so you may get a corrupted mix of files.

PPS: There will be no session next week, since I’m on vacation. However, if you like some "homework": It would be cool if you could walk through the maps that are only indirectly affected by the Assualt changes (Encounter and Skirmishes) and check for issues with map changes as well as spawn mechanics and spawn points (except for issues with weapon & ammo crates). Reports shall go to Mantis please.
