I definitely need to check this out! Just saw the trailer on YouTube. When their servers stop getting hammered, I'll download it.

Is this mod round based ?

Yes I believe it is, but whether there are respawns allowed per round or not I don't know, sorry.

If anyone wants to get links to download this like, today before everything goes to hell trying to get it, I suggest going and joining their IRC room they will release it there first.

Anyone else get the feeling the same thing that happened to Counter strike is going to happen to this?

What, it'll end up populated mainly by retards? :p

Sethos don't be to sure. If you read thier forums (when they are online lol) people have been rumoring (is that a word? lol) for weeks now that Valve is interested in buying the team and MAYBE making this a retail game. The devs of course deny this and say Valve has never offered nor would they take an offer. But, yeah. It certainly has the art, music, style, maps, etc that Valve goes goo goo over and thinks "cha ching" with.

I was guessing he meant be like Counter-strike in popularity and by that measure stick, this or almost any game for that matter has no chance. Talking about Valve buying it up or whatever is probably possible, that wasn't included in my comment.

Their IRC is for server admins only.

Edit: Ahh I see their post on ModDB. :)

Yeah, #neotokyo is for everyone. It looks like it's gonna release around 8 PM EST. But you never know with these releases.

Ugh! I was hoping to play it sooner. Oh well, I guess it doesn't hurt to wait a couple of hours. I just hope they post a ton of download links. I'm sure they'll be hammered like crazy. I have a question: Will it be released on Steam's mod page?

Once I download it I'll upload it to my website as an extra mirror. Here's a quote from one of the guys at the IRC channel:

<Grey> guys wanting an estimate, we're gonna do a quick santiy check with the client, and then start populating mirrors and setting up torrents. when those won't get slaughtered we'll post here first :)

Cool! Thanks. I'm idling in #neotokyo right now. Haha.

EDIT:

<@Grey> testing complete - we've already started with the mirrors, torrents seeds, almost there!

No this won't be listed on the Steam mods page, at least not right away.

The IRC channel is currently in +m mode, and no one is talking really right now. As soon as I see a link posted I'll post it up.

Heh one of the mods just went "Patience" and posted this pic:

Argh, I wanted a new post.

Ok, the torrent link is now working and I'm currently downloading. They have it up with 8 seeds currently.

A regular download link would've been nice, but a torrent will suffice. I'm floating around 1-3 kB/s right now. Ugh!

Yeah it's rather slow. I'm pulling between 50-100 kb right now. It'll speed up I'm sure. Sadly, of the 900 leechers, I'm sure as soon as most of them finish, they'll shut down the torrent. Damn leechers.
