09-03-2014
alpha release for "factions 2.0"
- the assets will no longer be downloaded from steam workshop (its just too unreliable at the moment), instead you can download a launcher application and the assets from www.factions.at
- when starting factions, all players will initially connect to a "global ready room"
- people can test there the classes and weapon setups, and queue for "missions"
- once enough players are queued for a mission, they will be connected to a new server where they can play against each other (4vs4), match making will probably come later as well
