Well a lot of people logged in before 1, but nobody seemed to be on at 1.
im gana leave the server up for awhile. If you find any bugs please report them here with details.
KNOWN ISSUES:
Buttons don't work (they aren't programmed in yet)
A black box appears on people when you click them (this is working as intended)
The lightning spell doesn't work (not programmed in yet)
Hey, Labmonkey here. Some of you might remember my game Firecaster. Most of you probably don't. W/e. I am asking your help to stress test the engine so squeeze out any bugs.
The game is written in Java, and is written from scratch by me. I am trying to get as many people as possible to log on at 1 PM EDT. That is approximately 1 hour 15 minutes from now.
You can log in before then, but I am trying to get as many people possible on at one time.
How to play:
Enter in a username/password and hit enter to log in. If you dont have an account one will be made for you.
WASD or arrow keys to move
Click on the screen to use a spell.
Right click to use your secondary spell.
Use they 1-5 keys to cycle through spells.
Type sprite1, sprite2, sprite3, sprite4 to change your sprite.
Type stats to see your stats.
Thank you for helping, and please post here if you are planning to log on.
Looks photo shopped to me. Of course if blizzard put that in there, they would probably use photo shop too. I don't think there are any post beta renders of that though, and the pre-beta ones never had that text in them.
Did some research, and found a link to the image from 2008.
EDIT: Actually I remember them saying once that they put a tun of detail in the cinematic. Think the quote was something like "from the hairs on his face to the numbers on that screen". Maybe these dates were their planned "summer release" dates, and when they were originally expecting a summer release they put them in, and they just re-used the same dates (why would they change?) after the delays. Or it could be a crazy coincidence.

@Nigle: Go
It works, you just have to click it before you hit space. It doesnt get focus automatically.

There's some silly stuff there, and a lot of spam. It makes a good read.

I had an idea for an experiment website. Anyone can post anything or remove anything.

I made them admin only.

@LazyCoder: Go
Quick workaround would be just to start your array out as its maximum size?
Create your own boundary variable for loops.

Can somebody find a blizzard source for this image? If you watch the cinematic, the numbers on his face change randomly and extremely fast.
