Zillvr Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 That Quick Match thing, I seriously appreciate that feature. Manually finding people to play with on random server is hard enough but with The Forge set up like this, finding people to play The Forge with would be a breeze. Thank you Klei! Question: Should all six player slots be filled before The Forge match begins, or can people chose to play with only 3~4 players in the team if they wish? See you guys on the 23rd, cheers!

Leonardo Cox Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I just hope theres enough servers to meet demand and be stable enough. Also I hope the code for the event mobs and what not will still be accessible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlZalph Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 3 hours ago, JoeW said: No, event servers are provided by Klei Well that's good. It took Valve three different events to see that community hosted servers are a bad idea when prizes are attached. Whoever there at Klei came to this decision should be given a pat on the back with a thumbs up. See: Server admins abusing anything and everything to get more out of events compared to normal people joining the server, idle-server-does-everything-for-you servers, mods that make the event impossible to complete on fake honeypot-like servers, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TealsMyth Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 So will there be a lobby while waiting for players? And if this is the case will it not start without all player slots filled? So many Questions... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr.Mulk Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I'm legitimately concerned about the servers that will be provided won't be enough to handle the amount of people trying to participate. I trust Klei that they know what they are doing, but I don't know if the amount of people will cause severe issues. Perhaps it'll just be best to wait a bit after the initial rush. 16 minutes ago, TealsMyth said: So will there be a lobby while waiting for players?

I'd hope there'd be a matchmaking system, I only have one or two other friends who are into DST as much as me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they did mention that stress testing the servers was part of the reason for the beta. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadyPK Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I'm a bit confused, would this mean we can still play the event if we just wanna play with our friends? or have a group of 6+ etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadyPK Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 so..no playing with friends? Hopefully that's not the case that we can play with just friends for these events. I guess it'll make more sense when it's out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Curator Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 More of the question of how the event is even going to be designed to encourage players to play it for more then thirty minutes. If it's literally just an arena battle, they're either going to have to make it ridiculously hard so it takes numerous plays to even win once; or it'll require grinding. All the same, more content that technically isn't being added to the game it's just existing in the game for a set period of time before it's removed. Because making content just to discard it is a popular developer process these days apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cezarica Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Duno why you guys complain about shirts when all I get lately where crappy pants in 3-4 different colors so far. I'd love a crappy shirt for a change. 3 more days for the event! woohoo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fimmatek Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Another question that came across my mind: will beta participants be able to play together with people not in the beta? For me it looks like yes, as the core game doesn't change, but I'm not sure, as during the ANR beta we couldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BiddoBams Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Will there be servers in different regions? Doing combat focused stuff with lag is an absolute nightmare. Also any chance we can party up with friends in a pseudo lobby screen before the search for matches? Or will there be a lobby screen/area before the actual event bits start in the servers (like the character select screen, but everyone has to "ready up" and such) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justme111 Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 ÏWait can we play by ourselves Offline? I would like to continue my loneliness in Dst. Also are we aloud to create our own server and play the forge after the release, or is this going to be a one time thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time I take a picture with such a nice base I'll make sure to give you credit. No sarcasm; that base is alot prettier than many of mine.

You know, Hamlet is pigman lore, and the theme for Forge seems to be pigs/boars...We might be getting a lot of information on the pigs and the shadows!
