Whats happening with AA3? I've been away for the last 5 or so weeks.

Looks like there is only 1-2 servers up for AA3 with people playing. Can't really tell if there is more than that, because I can only join the Aus servers via the 'open <ip>' command. Game is still buggy, but playable I suppose. Can't really see much in terms of competition though.

Nothing wasted I don't think, it's just not ready yet.

To answer your question serby, nothings happening yet comp wise, a few people are in the process of testing some things which - if they work, will mean we can get a trial ladder going and see how it goes.
With correct settings and rules it might be playable in the current state.

What a lot of people don't realise about AA is that the game in a few patches time will be a lot different to how it is now. AA3 in the tiny dev studio's eyes (they only have a few people coding this game remember) is like AA1 - they see it as a "first build" of the game - like a game studio would think of their first stable alpha.

If they waited until it was feature complete it would take a few more years before they released - so they release what they've done so far and as they code more they'll release that too.

Once there is a proper server browser and some netcode fixes to enable 14+ players - it should be able to build up an active pub community.


We may have to wait for things like PB CVAR's, Tournament Mode & Admin panel before the comp side takes off - but there's no harm in waiting until it's ready.

It's not like we've promoted it massively, tried to get a competition going and then watched it die, (that would have been really bad) - it just hasn't started yet.
