Today we've released Listen Server functionality for testing. This is available on the testing branch (details on how to access it here).
Listen Servers are essentially LAN games which can be accessed by anyone via the Internet, so won't have the regional restrictions that Hosted Relay matches currently have. Listen Server matches are currently capped at 8 players for the purpose of testing, but will be available for 16 players soon.
If you see your game on the list then you are good to go. If you don't - close the game and keep tweaking until you see your game in the list.
We'd appreciate your help testing Listen Servers and in particular, we're looking for feedback on:
- Crashes and disconnections while playing a match
- General feedback on the sticky topics in the Closed Testing forum.
- This build also contains a large number of new additions and bug fixing.
We've refined the quality settings options and would like feedback from you on how the game performs at different settings.
We'd like you to test this in Arcade Mode with 4 bots on the same map (different quality settings each time).
Please use this form to provide system information and feedback.
Thanks for your help!
