Really cute little video you got there Chrome - it's nice and crisp and clear - and nice announcement about the pre-launch party as well. I think having it on Sunday the 22nd at 18:00 game time is perfect. This way, I think more people will be able to attend. We can always gather the night before the actual launch when we know for sure it's the 24th, but like I said, the last few updates were delayed a day or two, so never know. Looking forward to the fun, and I'll be sure to have a cool list of sounds to keep us dancing for hours if that be the case.
gonna be one epic launch party, and afterwords one epic launch =) we are all gonna light up the global chats with discoveries and new items, what im waiting to see is who loots the alienware =) quoted from PCF "Rock on, see you all at the party, lets party the night away and make it a night to remember =)" - me =) By the way, great video chrome, makes a nice lead-up to the party
I wonder if all items will be looted/mined/crafted for the opening day. In my opinion I hope they are all looted in the first day. ALSO important.. When looted they are named something different so that we can see who discovers them. e.g (Player1 is the first colonist to discover keyboard 1) (player2 is the first colonist to discover keyboard 2) etc.. etc..
Sunday afternoon for me I'll be partying at 2 PM it looks like! Then to bed early so I can get up at 3 AM :O
uhm... WHY? Do you expect the launch to be in the middle of the night?!? Or some non EU related reasons?
I'm confused Larkin ... the party is at 18:00 in game time on Sunday (which is 2pm for me too), but why are you getting up at 3AM on Monday morning when the update isn't taking place until Tuesday early morning? Unless I have that wrong, and unless I misread your post.
Ooooops. Yep sorry it's on Sunday, and release is Tuesday. I posted that wrong, but it all made sense in my mind (I promise!) My mistake. Maybe I should sleep all through Monday to save up energy for 14 hours of straight gaming Tuesday! EDIT: I'll still be up early in the morning on Tuesday, since Swedish time is 6 hours ahead of me. They release updates in the morning in Sweden, correct?
Don't forget to bring your tomtebloss, or get your booty on the dance floor for your chance to receive one for free!
Yeah the update is in the morning in Sweden but to be fair it's not even "early" morning since it will be a big update. So the downtime should take quite some time. I think they always start the update when the important ppl arrive at the office so it won't be any earlier than the usual ones.
I may have to go searching to see if I can find the release times of some of the bigger updates in the past. I don't want to wake up earlier than I have to Then again... I don't want to miss anything! So 3 AM here is 9 AM in Sweden... Hmm
