Since the Master Server went up recently, we got thinking about some stuff we were curious about. Below is a link to a survey containing ten questions concerning SRB2’s online multiplayer modes. You do not have to answer every single question, but it would be nice if you did. After about two weeks, the results will be posted publicly. Everyone taking this survey is anonymous.

Click here to take survey.

Thank you for your time.

11/18 EDIT: The survey website I was using apparently has a restriction of the first 100 responses, which was quickly reached. Needless to say, this restriction was not made clear on the website. I have switched to a new survey service which will hopefully not give out on us. If you responded already, you do not need to do so again unless you really want to. The results of both surveys are going to be looked over.

For those of you who aren’t subscribed to our YouTube channel or are otherwise not in the know, I recently uploaded four new videos to our official channel. Since Spazzo is no longer around much anymore, he has given me control over STJr’s YouTube account and Email account (stjr AT srb2 DOT org) I’m not an enormous fan of Twitter, so I’m afraid our Twitter account is going to stay dead.

But enough of that! Spazzo promised a “Multiplayer Trailer Coming Soon” about eight months ago. So I uploaded videos of raw gameplay footage of our major multiplayer gametypes: Match, Tag, CTF and Race. For those of you who already play SRB2 online religiously, there is nothing all that new to see here other than a couple rounds of SRB2 in decent video quality. For those of you who have yet to play SRB2 at all, or play SRB2 online, this is a great first glimpse into the world of netgaming.

Maybe some 2.1 info might be forthcoming. Who knows?

That as soon as I make a blog post concerning that the Master Server isn’t working right, it gets fixed.

Hurry up and host some netgames!

It is because the Master Server still isn’t quite in shape… yet.

Unfortunately, the Master Server drops any listed server after a few minutes. This is being looked into and will hopefully be solved in the near future. In the meantime, the server log still lists the most recently created servers, and ones closer to the top can still be up, even though they do not appear on the main list. If you write down or remember the IP address, you may be able to join by IP to these servers.

A link to the Master Server list can be found in the left hand side of this page, under the header “Community.”

We apoligize for any inconvenience.
