Wut´s that?

[Puck]

Looks nice, could be very fun in MP.

How do the teleporter blocks work? I must be missing something. They always teleport me to some seemingly random spot above the playing field. I bet I somehow didnt get the linking right.

edit:
somebody host a big ass server pretty please 

[inaluct]

Downloading now.

[Floirt]

Ohoh, I just tried it out in "SinglePlayer" (ie hosting on my LAN), and there seems you could do quite a few tricks as an engineer, like cells that would cause your opponents to suicide since it would be unescapable, or force-field bridges over lava where ennemies would fall down, stuff like that.

Also, looking for gold is HARD.



EDIT: Yay for building megaprojects!


Also, I'm hosting a server over Hamachi. The network's name is "infiniB12", password "infiniminer". I can't keep it up at night (GMT +1 here), so, if you don't see mine, host one yourself. I'm not sure Vista will let you log on my server, though.

[ThtblovesDF]

The thing just crashes on me cant get it started -_-

[Floirt]

As the download page says, you NEED to download the XNA 3.0 Runtime, and run it. You probably have the .NET 2.0 one, but if it still doesn't work, download it too.

While I was bored and alone on my server (I still are), I made this:

Spoiler: Might bleed your eyes out (click to show/hide)

So, yeah. It is ugly as HECK, but I was bored anyways, and have no sense of art whatsoever when it comes to make stuff.

EDIT: ARGH SO UGLY INGAME, I'M GOING TO BLOW IT UP ANYWAYS AND MAKE A SOLID ONE.

[Mephisto]

... or force-field bridges over lava where ennemies would fall down, stuff like that.

I had a short argument lined up about why this wouldn't work, but then I realized that engies can place both red and blue force blocks. Your team can pass through your color, so you would have to build the bridge out of the opposite.

[qwertyuiopas]

I started playing just a while ago, and the map generated had the surface FLOODED with lava. The blue base was entirely under the lava, except the top of the spawn/bank, and the lava flooded down from everywhere.

Fun.


I think there should be an option to disable it, and another one that forces the game to start that way!

[Floirt]

Yeah, engies can do nifty things. Sappers are kinda useless, unless you want to blow up ennemy structures or rocks. Speaking of which, this game lacks rocks.

Also, pics of the stuff built on the server:

Spoiler: Will not bleed your eyes out this time (click to show/hide)

The tower of doom V2 is on the right. Just don't jump off the jumpers at the top unless you have a deathwish. On the left, you can see a statue of Toady One, the great. Those were made by me.



"Urist" made this. He also dug stuff underground, but I've yet to find them.



Lava! (The picture was taken at the top of the volcano, which is in fact a 4 by 4 square of rocks that works like a sink of sorts.)

You can at least disable the lava entirely in the server options, qwerty, but tehn it isn't fun to dig underground =(

EDIT: Broken pics.

[Mephisto]

Fun fact: the top of my stickman's head is the highest you can build. That doesn't mean you can't fling yourself up above that and die from the fall, though.

Yeah, I was Urist. I forgot to change my name after a short local game.

[Gunner-Chan]

So uhh... What exactly is this? I am confused and somehow interested.

[inaluct]

It's a multiplayer mining oriented game.

[andrea]

it says.... no auitable graphic card found! does that mean that i can't play this game?
