Anyone else think that the inclusion of bots really takes away from this game? I'm having trouble finding games full of people...
I hate bots.
I'm fine with a few bots to fill out the teams but I think they should do something about everyone loading up on the winning team and leaving nothing but 4 people and bots on the team that just lost.

Had a game where I was the only one on the other side. It was a pain in the neck, until I actually won. The host quit right after.
Does the mic broadcast to everyone, or just the side you're on?

Just the side your on, but when the match is over you broadcast to everyone.
Also, has everyone seen the ingame credits yet? Fucking brilliant!
Sorry for leaving early tonight "TheStig", wife was bugging me to take her out.
I'm not sure if it's my headset, but you were a bit fuzzy on my end so I couldn't hear you too well.

Had a couple of good games this afternoon, playing Invasion mode with someone on my friends list. Unfortunately no one from the Fat List was on, otherwise we would have really torn it up.
Well I'm home and down for some fat princess tonight if anyone else is.

So Jimmy Navio and I got our FP on this evening, had some pretty good games, though we crushed the enemy so hard it was almost too easy. We both had a chance to be the Grim Reaper at the end, which is always fun :twisted:
Sorry K1ng_Awesome, I added you today but you hadn't responded while we were playing. Maybe next time.
Caaaaaaaaaaaaaake. We really need to get a PA death squad going one night.
Yes! We seriously need to get a whole team of PA'ers and strategize the fuck out of the other team. And at one point we all need to become warriors and travel to the base in a cluster.

I though you were going to say "and travel to distant lands, righting the wrongs of the ruling classes"
Anyway, I'm on now and adding the people from the last page. Feel free to add me, the name is in the sig.
I bought this game on Sunday, and I'm definitely up for a couple games later tonight. PSN ID is "ItsTryke".
So far, I've been doing really well as the Worker. Some maps only have one good spot for farming metal, so I like to control that outpost and deprive the opponent of their upgrades. Usually, I get lucky and they're all too focused on the meatgrinder to care.
I need to get in to this game, only played a couple of games online but it's great fun.
I tried playing a game with you one day, but when I joined, it put me on the other team, and then after the match, I switched, and you quit.
I played a little last night before I went to bed and -dominated- with the Fire Mage. I don't know why, but I was unstoppable on The Great Gorge (That's the map where you have to build bridges to the center, right?) I used that outpost, and anybody who came around me got Exploded.
Titan Studios released a picture of what looks like a (potential) new Ninja class! Do you think it would be a free download or is the DLC starting already? Or are we getting ahead of ourselves in assuming this?

It was good times.
Sorry! Didn't notice you! I need to get my headset sorted for this game

Also, the 1.02 patch is live for all regions now.
Yeah, being the Reaper is fun, but I almost like the big chicken more. Even though you don't have any super cool spin attacks it's fun to just peck the hell out of everyone - not to mention demoralizing to the opposing team: You guys may have won, but I outscored you all, and now my fat feathery ass is kicking your trash.

what. WHAT.
EPIC.
I wonder what gameplay niche the ninja will fill?
Starts off with sword as a melee class, with the upgrade giving ranged shuriken attacks? I'd assume they'd be faster and have a better jump height too. The shuriken would probably be weaker than the Ranger's attacks, and the sword weaker than the Warrior's, so it'd be a hit-and-run character primarily. That's my guess, anyway.

I would personally like to see something more like this:
Drastically increased speed and jumping abilities.
Increased attack damage (compared to the warrior)
A possible cloaking ability (on a timer, similar to the spy in TF2 except you can attack while cloaked. Also, the cloak would require a charge)
ONE HEART
This would allow for some awesome ninja strikes - launch into the enemy base cloaked, take out a few guys and try to get out before being detected. The one heart would ensure that your main goal as the ninja is to attack without being found out. The second you are discovered, you are dead. This is what I think of when I hear the word ninja - quick and deadly attacks, leaving no trace.
Cloaking would also make for an interesting dynamic for the mage - his fire and ice AOE could be used defensively to detect cloaked ninjas, which would naturally make ninjas less inclined to rush into the meat grinder in the center of the map. This would force ninjas to hunt for lone travelers and terrorize workers.

Scratch that, they're obviously making a Pirates vs Ninjas game mode.

I gotta say, regardless how this pans out, I am really ready to have TitanStudio's babies. Like, one million of them. It's been a while since (I personally have seen) a studio really get in touch with the people who, you know, buy the game. I guess that's the bonus of being indie?

So we've got Ninjas, and Pirates. Ok, on some weird, awesome level those make sense. But now we have...
CHEFS???
All I have to say is WTF Titan. I really want to see where they're going with all of this.
Side note: I won't be able to play this weekend (going out of town), but you guys should get a game going sometime this weekend.
There are princesses to feed....don't neglect your fatties!

There should be an achievement for getting kicked right after killing the game host.

It's actually R2.
Had a weird glitch tonight where it wouldn't let me escort the person carrying the princess.

I will be, if I'm not off seeing district 9 (which is a distinct possibility).
