yeah, it says "Multiplayer reinvented," then it goes on to outline crap that
doesn't really relate to multiplayer ... it should have bullets underneath
that heading with stuff like
*customizable spawn point protection,
*larger and better maps,
*fully customizable dedicated linux server (windows version coming soon)
*updated mapping and mod tools
*optimized network protocol reducing data transfer requirements
*new virtualization mode that allows GSPs to deploy more instances on a
single server
Now if it said THAT, holy cow this would be the biggest game ever (at least
in my lifetime).
Why can't they see it?
