Offline Play Is Coming October 9

Yep, it was shot off I the past because people hosted a 100 player game.

Brad's already said that modders can probably hack it in with this release. So hopefully we'll have a 40 person game scheduled in the next week. I have plans.

So i would like to jump on the bang wagon and say... "HELL YES ABOUT TIME..." AND " WOW I JUST CANT WAIT TO SEE IT WORK".. and i would like to know if this an AM or PM update will it be before or after i get off work. central or mountain or eastern time. just what time will it happen on the 9th of october 2014. does anyone know this or help me with this question or should i just wait and see what happens.

two days after that everyone will shout at uber for having busted PC ... i still will wait for when it's actualy there ... the good news about this all those smnc doomsayers at least imo lost their biggest attackpoint for calling uber liers ...
seriously the rest is just extras and stuff that streamlines the game ...
by that point i don't think it's fair to say that uber didn't deliver ... they did ...your little unitcannon and asteroids are just a couple extras now nothing major

The truth is ugly my friend.

that you can't stop being salty no matter what ...
all you do by now is just giving rather minor complains regarding PA ...

While this is great news (good job @ Uber devs), I was wondering something.

What does offline, and later "down the road" private online servers, means for a feature like Replays ?
How could someone replay an offline game ?
How could someone replay an online game that happened on another server than Uber's ?

I'd assume the server has a function to store a replay file. You'll need that file to playback the replay.
Assuming that function is already ready to be used on the 9th

Yeah, I figured it was something like that, and if they make an option to store the replay, it induces somehow the transfer of the file after the game to Uber's servers / Playfab, in order to be able to watch it from anywhere.
Not sure how big a replay file can be though.

You can make assumptions based on how much traffic watching a game as observer creates.

Not sure if Uber are genius masterminds or completely clueless when it comes to PR. Obviously we (=me) lack the information of what's going on behind the scenes but that's ok..it's none of our business anyway.

PA redeemed AFAIC.

I just spent the last few minutes sitting in my chair laughing hysterically at this update.

I love how they decide to release an update about the game, way AFTER they started getting flame and flak.

You'd rather have them stop updating it, eh?

Nice to finally have some good news, keep this momentum up

finally! i can actually practice against AI without worrying about lag!

and i'll actually be able to run it on my PC!

Can somebody tell me where Uber said you can host a server on the Internet because I can't find it anywhere.

Edit: fixed typo

That does not say server is routable on the Internet.

Well, was not the best idea to don´t do offical roadmaps...
...those would proberbly (but nothing more than this, this is no master solution) have helped a lot holding the flamewars/ shitstorm back...
...anyways, I can understand that you´re amused.

They've been getting flame and flak for offline and servers for months just so you know.
