    Oh, I'm definitely joining this if it doesn't lag to hell. Cool initiative!

    I'd liked to join in, but my current net connection wouldn't support any game with more than a few players. So at least I will be watching via twitch. (;

    I'm in. If you want a special map made for this I'm happy to design one to spec.

    Hadn't considered maps, depends on how many people we get in part. Generally I think trying to maximise performance is gonna be the main concern, so not many planets. Has anyone looked into how CSGs/brushes affect performance? I'm guessing moons would be least resource intensive, but I think some water would be nice for those epic naval battles.

    If you want to take a crack at making an interesting system that's big enough and doesn't lag too hard I will defer to your expertise and await the result :)

    How about an ice_boss, radius 1200 or so; that way we can have water with no trees, since those hurt performance. I'll keep the number of brushes low. Could try to scatter metal to ensure fair spawns, but that would also make it more of a dox/bomber map; up to you really.

    I'll certainly be tuning into a cast of it.

    Wat bring it on nubz.

    Best time for me is about 22:00. Earlier than 21:00 and I won't be able to make it.

    I recommend that you wait for the next non-hotfix PTE (probably going out Friday). There are some significant server performance improvements incoming.

    any hints as to what kind of improvements? I'm intrigued...

    Edit p.s. if you fancy writing a bit of a tech post about the changes that'd be great... as an engineer (mechanical) I find learning about some of the inner workings of pa really interesting :)
