Hopefully going to be playing Friday night or Saturday. Going to a Comic Con in Manchester on Sunday. I suppose there is always next weekend to get my fix

.

Hopefully get some time in Friday and Saturday night and maybe some in sunday, my mate who I went splits with is working nights all weekend, so I'm going to be a clueless random, my apologies in advance :/

Xcept1 · 21 Jul 2015 at 19:27

I'll be on after 1930 on Friday so if you want I can take SL and ~~get you killed~~ show you the ropes.

neoboy · 21 Jul 2015 at 20:32

I might even be able to get a day in, leave on Sunday now for my holiday

So who on here will be playing on Friday and over the weekend?

Me, but where can we play? So you have a clan and a teamspeak server we can join?

Xcept1 · 21 Jul 2015 at 21:35

You don't actually need teamspeak. The ingame VOIP is one of the best I've played with.

neoboy · 21 Jul 2015 at 21:37

We're just getting the one map by the way? Forgot what they said in that mini interview now.

Xcept1 · 21 Jul 2015 at 21:44

There will be more than one map

Not yet. Will just be a case of saying the server number/name and jumping in. When it gets on Steam you will be able to join on friends as per usual.

I'm going to okay on the getting killed part but I'll join up anyway

Quick question fella, I'm expecting 2 keys, do I just send one of them to my mate and he'll go through the same process as I will do to download the game and get it tied to his username/steam account. Is the pre-closed alpha not done through steam?

Yup, just send the key to your friend and he will register with his details.

Pre-closed won't be on Steam. You will receive an e-mail with a download link

Swifty55 · 22 Jul 2015 at 11:20

Just waiting for my email now.... Waiting.... Wating.... Waiting... *Waits a little more*...

Waiting sucks!

Xcept1 · 22 Jul 2015 at 11:28

Not long! This weekends build is still being worked on. Has a few bugs to kill before we can finalize and give it a test to make sure it's in a good state for you guys.

Not read the whole thread so may have been answered , Do you know when the Linux version is likely to appear Xcept1 ?

Guess that will be when it's on steam too i should think.

mike.grayizzle · 22 Jul 2015 at 12:00

Any rough idea on download size and ability of hosts to deliver. I imagine a lot of people will be hammering the download

and I would like maximise the small amount of play time I normally have over the upcoming weekends

When squad is eventually on steam will we just use the same key code to activate game on steam ? cheers

Linux server files will be available once it hits Steam. Client linux...nothing is concrete.

Current size of the build is 1.6gb so it won't be much more than that. If the servers start bricking it then I can upload it to Mega and give you the links for that.

The is currently the plan I believe. Could all change though!

RyanF · 22 Jul 2015 at 21:01

Any "official" streams for the weekend to keep an eye out for? Or just the usual Twitch trawling?

Xcept1 · 22 Jul 2015 at 21:10

I'll probably have a few up over the weekend. Hopefully we can get an "OcUK INF" squad and tear it up!
