HECK YEA!!! Big Grin


Sometimes there is an hour wait to get in the the arena and that sucks ( the wait not the arena). We used to have a low cal cycle but that went away. Frown This will kill some of the waith and allow more people to play. Make it Grand.

Badass. You can set up a low cal cycle and UdU will have Arena and Asgard (hopefully very very soon)

We had a so-called "Low Caliber Cycle" up for a few months; the thing was always empty, lol.

If we could come up with a good solution for an additional server we'd be able to add it.

I remember Low Caliber Cycle having people in it from time to time. It was a good when the Arena was full. Low Caliber Hall, unfortunately, didn't get nearly as many visitors. As nice as those maps were, I dont think I ever got to play with anyone on them.

well, as i recall it was something like a 2 meg dl, that was preatty discouraging. Maybe if you cycled more known maps at first and THEN went on to the more abscure ones...

That was actually the original set-up; but the result was invariable: we would get a couple tag-alongs for the basic maps and then boom, empty on the final obscure one.

So then we switched to all basic but low-calibrized; and people rightly complained that the old maps were worn and thread-bare.

The only derivative LowCaliber which had something of a life of its own was Asgard; and that may have had more to do with the Conjure aspect.  It was certainly singular, but not a fighting crowd.

We might go back to an expanded Asgard (were guys guys even around for Asgard?), with some passages inside the castle and a renewed focus on combat.

Is that a map or just the end level?

Both map and end-level; it had been specially prepared for DM with a twist: you would start randaomly at any one of the five pillars with a different weapon each time.

Live, edible fish as well.
