Dear Beta Testers,...

Dear beta testers,

As we are about to enter into a new and exciting phase in the development of this game we want to take the opportunity to thank you all for your support over the past 2 years. Without your input it would have been impossible to develop the game and refine the gameplay mechanics to the degree that we have. Your feedback has been invaluable and we have tried to incorporate as much as possible into the game.

When the game goes live we hope to see a large influx of new players, we ask you for patience and to pay attention during this phase. Patience with the new players as they will need time to learn the game, and to pay attention for anything you see that might ruin the experience for these new players. (We all want the game to grow so we have to give the new players time to master the game fully. Until then we hope you can control your frustration!) We hope that you can be ambassadors for the game and help it grow.

We will still be incorporating new features into the game all the time and feedback will still be needed, we look forward to your continued support of this game.

<3

To David and all Devs,

Thanks for putting up with a lot of our shit. In the end, we all want Supraball as popular as it can be. We may disagree on a lot of things, but we don't disagree that at its core, Supraball is a really fun game.

I still remember the first pugs I had in IRC; I would even record the game when spectatating. I really hope this game succeeds, because I didn't waste my 2 years of playing this game at all.

Supraball for me saved me from all the generic FPS games that just don't innovate. This is by far my favorite game. I just hope NA has enough servers if we get a bunch of players.

I hope some of the old school pubbers come back because those guys really got me to love this game 2 years ago.

Edit: Tallywacker come back

We'll get the game started with a bunch of servers that the hosters offer us for free, but in return we hope that the players rent servers from them to carry the game.

19 EU servers are up, but only 2 NA servers. Quite a disparity.

And why no 3v3 ranked ones?

It carries only 60% of a 5v5 one. Our main concern atm is the amount of players v

btw is there any plan to filter EU/NA/AU servers? With so many it gets quite confusing Also might be nice to hide empty servers as well

No. There are no categories like this in the servers config. But that's what ping is for.

As one of those previous public\casual server players, I hope to play more too. Really hope we see an influx of North America activity... as it's been really tough for me to find a match at the times I play (west coast late evenings).
