Title: Private game
Post by: Filippo on April 30, 2009, 08:13:44 PM
Hello,

I probably alredy asked, but what is a private game that everybody talks about? Where do you join?

Thank-you

SKYLINK organized a private game about a month ago. It's about half way through now, with almost no one left playing, so I don't recommend joining at this point. Plus, it's limited to only North American and Europe.

A private game is basically what it says -- a game made private to a certain amount of people set to how they want (IE: open to only 30 people and 2 continents)

Skylink's private game failed for a couple of reasons. First, of the 30 people who committed to joining only 23 actually did. Second, even limited to 2 continents there was almost no competition and the game became incredibly easy. So considering that it wasn't that much fun and that Sami got burned on the number of people joining, don't expect another one to be made.

It was limited to 30 players.  It turns out to be WAY too few for the size map (Europe + NA).

If done again, I would have a 30 player battle on 1 continent.

Is there a way to join the game now? I would really like to play in a place where there is no competition.  ;)

There are plenty of relatively big cities still open. If you'd like, I could let you know.

The current base airports are Newark, JFK, Chicago, Paris (2), London (3), Miami, Stockholm, Copenhagen, Rome, Frankfurt.

Atlanta, LA, Dallas, and Denver are some of the big ones still open.

I was Las Vegas... I controlled the whole western 1/2 of the US basically.  Just too little competition.
