Great news

 

[Pottsy]

Really cool way to start the server, as oppose to being stuck to the SZ borders.

Will the server smoothly transition into spawns dead on 6PM, or will you have to reboot? I suspect a reboot, but you make it sound like it will just suddenly populate lol.

Because thats how it will happen.

Spawning mobs isn't really that expensive of an issue resource wise, so it should't be surprising that this is the way it will happen - although I can't recall if he did it that way on Marble now. Presuming Jamie has got decent hosting, just hoping that there are no issues with attempted ddos (but I genuinely think there will be)

EDIT: Attempts made that is, not any actual issues.

 

[Exsodius]

So there is a pre-set level and basic kit when you log in? So people can fight/explore.

His hosting is good, don't think this makes a difference to Ddos protection but i get 5-8 ping on Zircon that's the best i've ever had on any game ever. xD

 

[kuelab]

Archons didn't have **** lol, sent out some E-mails to previous Arcadia / P69 members didn't even put it up on LOMCN untill 24 hours before launch.. I think Scorp went totally wrong about Archon for starters if he posted it here everybody would of told him to stop using Delphi files.
