      Yeah,doesn't Discord look funny in it?

       

       

  2. I honestly don't see why not, it'll probably be discussed though first. Really though CADE's subforum might as well be or have a section dedicated to general game discussion. It is a pretty big topic. I just feel bad for the person who has to sift through all the MEDIA threads and move the game ones to the new section. (Inb4 Chaotic Discord)
  3. Buck here come the sadistic name prefixes.

  4. We fully intend on eventually expanding out horizons to a point where people can organize co-op games with each other, with games that don't use servers and other sorts of gaming. E.g. people will be able to plan or organize a small group of say 4 people to play a game of Worms: Armageddon or 2 people to play Portal 2.
  5. I chose a really slow time to post that announcement.

      well, on the east coast (of america anyway :P) its like 1:30 in the morning lol

  6. Did I say tomorrow? I meant today.

  7. *Walks up on to the stage tapping a mic.* Erm… Feld0 you sure this’ll work? Chill. You got this. *Heavy sigh* Okay. Let’s do this... Hello ponies of the MLP Forums and Poniverse! Welcome to my thread. A thread which has had hours and hours of time placed into it as a spider weaves its web. A single thread to link between worlds what is to be announced as the next project of the Poniverse network. This single thread among a webby network of sites shall connect a project that has been under development for several months now. A project that has been in thought and planning for very long, but only recently has at last been brought to pass. (Are you sick of the spider thread puns yet?) Thus without any further delay, allow me to introduce everyone to our new friend… Canterlot Arcade Where Games meet the Players (LOGO TO BE MADE) Now let me see… where to begin… Ah yes. In a basement in the ground, there lived an idea. One of not an unoriginal concept, as it had been heard of before, but never brought to light the possibility. Until however, a small team of gamers discovered the merit in this idea; an idea for a brony focused community revolving around purely gaming. A gamer focused community. This team started in low, and then it started to grow… (Can YOU count all the references?) Allow me to introduce you to Canterlot Arcade Canterlot Arcade is a high-quality gaming network dedicated to bronies, scheduled for release on December 21st. CADE seeks to provide a fun and engaging community of game servers centered on a unique and enjoyable experience for all types of gamers. With a focused team of staff members, cross-server chat and custom server mods that keep gameplay fair, Canterlot Arcade is bent at bringing competitive and casual gamers alike together. Our goal with Canterlot Arcade? Make a brony gaming community that will provide the best of all worlds, be it casual, competitive, and/or communal. From small to large, from intense to laid back. We aim to provide something for all kinds of gamers. What will Canterlot Arcade include? With such an ambitious goal in mind, Canterlot Arcade needs a lot of gaming servers. And I mean a whole damn lot. However we can only do so much before our release date, which is just barely less than a month away! For this reason, I’ll point out what will be available upon release. Servers for the following games: · Minecraft · TF2 (Team Fortress 2) · Counter Strike: Global Offensive · Garry’s Mod These games will have multiple servers for each, expanding as they grow in popularity. Upon release, CADE’s Minecraft section will have at least one server dedicated to classic vanilla survival. TF2 will have at least two servers, a competitive “vanilla” server and a fun-focused casual server. Counter Strike will have at least one server dedicated to the Deathmatch gameplay style, and finally Garry’s Mod will have a standard server for stock sandbox gameplay. Cross-Server Public IRC Chat Let’s face facts. People like to talk to one another, especially through chatrooms. Now MLP Forums has an eternal vendetta against any form of chat system or instant messaging. Well, CADE isn’t MLP Forums now, is it? Canterlot Arcade will have built into each server an IRC client that will connect to a game-server-specific IRC channel. This will allow players in and out of the game to communicate and discuss things. What’s better is that this client will be completely optional for the players in the game. They can easily disable it on their end by typing in a simple command. Because not all of us feel like talking to people while battling creepers and face-blasting people with a gun. In addition, there will also be CADE’s global channels, which will allow for people not in any specific game to chat. Yes, you are all invited. But not until the 21st of December. Sorry~! Dedicated [CADE] Sub-Forum Really, people do love to talk to one another. So of course we’re going to have a section here on the MLP Forums solely dedicated to Canterlot Arcade. This will be a place for discussing and sharing things about the servers, finding news and updates, and discussion suggestions for the future of CADE. “Anything else, Marcato?” I don’t know… Why don’t you tell me? At Canterlot Arcade we have the gamers in mind, always. So for that reason we are fully open to suggestions for the future of Canterlot Arcade. I would love to hear your ideas and suggestions. We would love to hear your ideas and suggestions. Just keep in mind though, we can only do so much! (We are human believe it or not.) “That’s all fine and dandy… but what about a central hub?” Well, that is what Canterlot Arcade is meant to be, thus you can expect a dedicated website to go along with Canterlot Arcade’s servers. This website will be the prime location for updates and changes made, keeping track of events (which will happen frequently) and following gameplay stats of players and the servers. “Who's working on it though?” Canterlot Arcade also has a team of dedicated staff, selected from individuals on our steam group and staff who displayed interest in operating our up and coming servers and who know what their doing. The users we currently have working on Canterlot Arcade are as follows: Marcato - Project Management, TF2 Servers, Chigens - Steam Group, community interaction Lavoaster - Web Developer WingedRatchet - Minecraft Servers Dawn Rider - Minecraft Servers Sky Song - Minecrat Servers Jerry - TF2 Servers, Source Plugin Developer Ella Smith - Counter Strike: Global Offensive Servers Hylian Madness - Garry's Mod Servers *Minecraft, TF2, CS:GO, G-Mod, Other Our new staff among this list are: Sky Song Jerry Ella Smith Hylian Madness “How can I help?” Do yourself a favor. Go to the steam group right now and join it. Until CADE is released that is the place where updates will likely be posted. Stay tuned there for pre-release exclusive events and call outs for help on various things. We’ll try to keep you posted as best as we can. Canterlot Arcade is scheduled for release on December 21st, just in time for the holidays. So much for that Christmas dinner with your family.
  8. There is but one reason I'm still on the moderation team, and everyone on the forums shall know about it tomorrow.

  14. I find myself complaining about my highschool courses. Then I get a peptalk (feartalk?) from Feld0 about University.

  15. Avogadro you brilliant bastard.

      >tfw you'll never get a pony

      >tfw you'll never snuggle with fluttershy

      >tfw you'll never meet the cmc

  22. Well when you take into consideration the necessary programming, accounting for many different potential outcomes, bugfixing, graphics, and other creative parts of the game that takes time and effort... and then when you compare it to most popular and what are defined as high quality games that are usually expensive, $15 is hardly worth complaining about. An indie game company is quite literally defined as 'a small group of people' that work on a game. Work. These people are using this as their source of income. They gotta get their money somewhere. I can acknowledge that it may be overrated, but to me the price seems fine compared to most console games hitting $40+ (If not $60) EDIT: For the record, I got Sonic Colours for the DS very shortly after it came out for $40. I got 2 full hours of play time. That's it. Don't complain about 3 hours for $15.
  23. I'll hop on the Tia bandwagon.
