Well Im really bored now :)

hehehe It is sad that the only time I see so many people here in this forum is when the PE server is down. ;-)

We need a board game of PE, like Monopoly, with a dice to roll and little plastic Atrox to chase us around the board. hehe
The deluxe version of PE-The Board Game would include a little sprayer, so you could squirt snable snot on the other players, and a little plastic hunting horn so you could make the Global sound. :-)

Damn that actually sounds like a great idea - think I will go get some cardboard and make my own version, as it looks like we will have pleeenty of time before the server is back up again. :twisted:

 

Hi
Well i can let you have a small preview of what comming

1. a chat client will be added to the forum
2. arcade games is in the pipe
3. have been looking at radio module

As Klod say the PE servers arent down every day but it sure get boaring when they are :-\"

So if you have more suggestions about stuff to add here pls let me know or post it under Forum News

 

some other suggestions for this kind of Downtime-events would be:

Send a few invites to ppl to join the forum (the more ppl the more fun forum)
Write something about you, your gaming or something you dreamed last night :)

Im working on the chat as we speak ..

 

Good idea about the PMs Klod :-)
And the board game using PMs would probably be faster than the real game has been recently, with all the lag and delays before you can loot a mob.

Hmmm maybe that is what this downtime is for? Perhaps the lags and slow gameplay has been due to a server fault or overload, and MA are transferring everything across onto a new server system? That might explain the long downtime, and it would be well worth the wait if the server was less laggy and slow.

Oh please please please let it be a server upgrade. :-)

 

If your really bored.......

If your really bored then you can open the game folder and look for the sounds and open them with winamp or other music player and sit back and visualize. (Now that is pitiful.)

But one thing for sure. We have saved a bit of money tonight. So when/if MA opens back up we will be able to play twice as long.

 

:-k There are 1,434 sound in the sound file. That should keep you busy at least for an hour. LOL :twisted:

 

Now what is wrong with the ol' 386 ?? :hehe:

 

Any suggestions what is going on with the servers?
Did they could not pay the bill after the last ATH?
Or did the charwoman hit the powerbutton with her mob ? :)

the mainserver answers to a ping so the underliing system is not running.

 

Have a look in the PE/data/sounds folder for these files:

For added realism play this sound file a few times first:

224235.wav


Then indulge your crafting dreams by playing the following sounds on repeat play:

470009.wav

470010.wav


And to help you wind down after the hours of non-playing, try this sound before you turn off the computer for the night:

243219.mp3


Hours of fun and amusement could be had with these wav files and a few plastic Atrox to chase you around your computer desk, and all for free. hehehehe

So Marco, does this mean that no VU is forthcoming? its purely a hardware issue? servers are down, so no reason not to spill the beans....

Nope - next VU is coming in about 3 weeks.

 

hmm guess the ol' 386 made his last day at work today :)
How about some redundancy MA?!

Call me im cheap ..compared to being down :-D

 

would that be 470009 and 470010?

 

Hi Suncatch,

Yes if you have windows set so it does not display the file type, then these sound files would appear to be named just 470009 and 470010

Burger :-)

 

oh, you already found them :( i looked them up, but didn't see page two of this thread were you already mentioned them lol
