Eyebo: random word generator ^_^ the number 2 on the list was "GG factory" and the third was "Focus"
We went with Nadeo to be able to build the spirit with the ability to define ourselves entirely.

Thanks! That's not the answer I was expecting at all. I figured it was some obscure French word or something. But it's really cool. I'm glad you picked Nadeo instead of GG Factory.

It's interesting that "Focus" was 3rd on the list... since you later partnered with Focus Interactive as your publishers.

Hey Hylis,
I've been away for a while so excuse me if this has already been answered but will Offline play be reinstated any time soon. I'm anxious to use the updated Canyon blocks but almost never play connected to the internet.

Do you will create Manialink-list page like in the past of TMU(F) for Maniahome or as own title with own sections like tracks / skins / [...] ? Maniapub is at the moment really "low"

Hey,

what´s a normal SnapshotDeltaTime ? We are normally playing something between 60-80 and it often happens that we shoot through a person and nothing happens. Also someone capture a pole and he didn´t finished it and you are not able to shoot anymore. Don´t know if it depends on the SnapShotDeltaTime but it´s really anoying. And there are also big freezes/laggs from time to time. And what makes me really mad is that the last 3-4 releases of the dedicated server are not fixing those problems, on the contrary, it gets even more worse. I know it´s still a beta but it´s despite that really anoying to update all the servers and nothing is improved. Do you have any big updates in the pipeline ?

And is it a good idea to distribute again a lot of 30 day beta keys even if the game is still a bit buggy? I would like to see new people to the community but I doubt that a lot will stay after the 30 days because of the facts above.

I also would like to know why my 90k ladderserver was deleted some time ago. No 90k server during the beta ?

best regards, Jojo

Kripkee, not scheduled for many reasons. ManiaPub will increase at the right time. It is still early and we have other priorities for the system.

Jojo, but are always looking to improve the snapshot and the 1.3 should have brought good improvements on this side, I am surprised that you did not noticed though. Last update on the dedicated server were to include more datas for us, that are sent to the master server, in order to work even more on these topics.

The 1.3 has ten days and you are already here asking for faster dev. I think you should measure the wideness of the topic we have to adress as well as looking at how we still manage to bring you updates nonetheless. We are obviously working on updcoming releases, but I feel that one key point can be patience a little, no?

About invitation, we will be able to invite in better conditions later, but we made invitations to people ready to help tests. It is not a 'demo' or a marketing strategy, but a way to see how the game reacts with some new people. When it will more to grow the community and the audience, we will have a smoother experience, I agree on that.

Yes 1.3 running better than before but 1.3b and especially 1.3c are back steps. You should read these 2 topics:

If I use the logs version I have to restart the servers every 24h. And if I use the no logs version you don´t get any information and the laggs are the same as before.

And I know how much work it is and you shouldn´t take my words as a attack or something, it´s just you are playing and you have freezes/laggs all the time, doesn´t make fun. And since I know a lot of people thinking my way, I wanted to ping you on this topic.

have a nice weekend, Jojo
