"I came from America to watch Boxer in only 4 years. T1 Fighting!" Not certain on the "in only 4 years" part, but pretty sure that's what "4년만에" means.

So, I was also thinking. Once we get a lot of users and a more stabilized competitive environment, we're going to notice more and more users connecting from different hemispheres (currently i've played only people us located). Is it possible to create a ping command or something to let you know wether you are a good match against a possible opponent? I imagine a scenario where I'm at Ladder C, and there's some random korean asking for a game. I would love to be able to right click -> ping, and get a response. If it's a very high ping, i can refuse without needing to enter a game. That or, once you join an open game, you get ping colors inside the match screen. Is this possible or on your queue?

For that it needs to be possible to get a ping between you and the other person, if it's just the server pinging the user (like iCCup for example) and telling you that round trip time it's completely useless unless you are located pretty much where the server is located.

I know, and this is exactly what I'm suggesting. IPs are already known by Shield Battery when you create your game, so it's possible to determine this from each client.

Don't count on it. The project is in early stages of development and as the FAQ states, it's currently Windows (and in the future Wine) only.
no thanks

Depends on what you submitted. I submitted at the first day and still no invitation. It is all luck.

If the function is not implemented yet your best option would be PM either tec or 2pac as they have access to the DB to reset your password.

Yup, actually even before I got to that, tec27 must've seen my reply earlier and reached out to me first

Was a very simple process and he did it immediately. Thought I'd post those results in case it happens to anyone else until the 'forget password' feature is implemented.

What is exactly the point of a closed beta atm.? As in: what advantages do the developers get compared to an open beta?

Just genuinly curious...

less stress on the server and testing with hand picked individuals (who all entered information about their OS/GPU). The advantage is that you get less problems reported at once and can focus on these, also reduces the chance of weird edge cases.

Thing is, we are not talking about millions not even hundreds of thousands people coming, so I don't sincerely think such a slow tempo is needed when it comes to new people joining up, it can slow things down all together.

It's not like you are making new Battle.Net.

The point of a closed beta is to have people test the server and find bugs/give feedback in a controlled way. We have a couple issues that ~half the people on the server run into fairly often. They're known things, we know how to fix them, it just takes some time to write the code to do so. It'd be fairly useless to admit hundreds of new people just to have them tell us the same thing (and possibly get frustrated and not come back), so we haven't done that. Be patient, we'll be sending out a wave of invites soon.

We don't have a set timeline. The goal of the closed beta is to test things in a more controlled fashion. Until we're certain that failures are incredibly rare, we want to ensure we can have a close relationship and tight feedback loop with all of our testers. We also want people that won't run away from the site and never come back if they encounter a bug

So, once we feel pretty good about the state of things and feel like we don't need that tight feedback loop any more, we'll open things up to anyone who wants to sign up. I would estimate this is in the range of ~months, but I'm not promising any particular dates. This is, after all, a side project for me; I have a full time job that has to come first.

2Pac your quotes don't exactly address what the advantages are. They just make statements like: "we want to test in a more controlled way" or "tight feedback loop".

There might be better ways to address the underlying goals of those statements. Without knowing any details of the setup, a solid dev/test/prod setup comes to mind as well as a bug report system allowing for fast classification of reports.

You could then give open beta on the prod environment and let a group of preferred testers reproduce bugs on test. That gives both tight control and close feedback loops while accelerating the pace of found bugs. Just as an idea...
