Ghostlight Posted October 9, 2011 Posted October 9, 2011 Hey. I came across this Renegade-X Steam group as I was looking for folks to play with. It has 137 members and 15 are in-game. As I was lurking around the site I recall reading something about thousands of downloads. Here's a link to the group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/renegadex So, idea! I'm not assuming every Renegade-X fan has Steam, but I think it'd be a great way to get games together if there were some more advertisements for it on the site. If there are really that many people downloading the client and interested in the project supporting a Steam group for Renegade-X full time would really help the formation of pick up games; especially when you can post events right through Steam. The only downside, and the other reason I wanted to post about it (after turning up no search results), was that it's invite only. However, I was able to see some of the latest news bits and it looks like they turned off open membership due to bot spam. That's completely reasonable, but I wasn't able to find anyone that could invite me via the chat. There was no IRC or website provided for quick access to someone willing to invite. So, 1.) I'm looking for an invite! and 2.) I think some steam group advertisement would help get games together beyond Sundays. I'm still new and could be way off base. It just seems like a cool idea to me.

Ghostlight Posted October 10, 2011 Author Posted October 10, 2011 Alternatively, if the group leader is inactive, one of the developers here may be interested in starting up an official group? Quote

Awesome. Can you toss sindahive an invite to the group? If you'd be willing to throw together an info thread about it I bet someone would sticky it. Quote

halo2pac Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 If you look at the top left of the frontend, there is a chat button.. that takes you straight to the IRC channel. Quote

halo2pac Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 Screenshots help so we can fix things it was probably asking for permission to run ...... Quote

alexrirak Posted October 12, 2011 Posted October 12, 2011 The chat points to the channels for the US server but there is more activity in the EU one now Quote
Ghostlight Posted October 12, 2011 Author Posted October 12, 2011 The chat points to the channels for the US server but there is more activity in the EU one now Oh word? I can probably get myself through there through the same IRC. What's the channel name? Quote
