Non-subscription shard launched
-
@systemparadox Please check again now.
-
@davaned If you're a non-subscriber, you only have 20 CPU in your pool to assign obviously, so you can only assign what is available.
-
Yes I'm up to 20 CPU now. Thanks!
-
I misunderstood, I thought it was a shard3 only special to get 20 cpu
Awesome, really glad to have the additional cpu to stay engaged even when not subscribed!
-
I really like this!
Since players will be way less expansive due to the CPU limit, it will take a whole lot of time until Shard3 will be full. And it also solves all the "when does my subscription start"-confusion. Two birds with one stone!
-
I just started a week or two ago. How do i respawn to the new shard?
-
@frop If you click on your name at the top right corner of the screen, you should see "respawn" as one of the options in the menu that appears.
-
Is this for steam buyers only or completely free?
-
This is only for steam buyers. See the order page:
Buy Screeps on Steam
This package includes both your private server and permanent access to our official server with 20 CPU limit.
-
This sounds like a good compromise. New steam players get to build up a pretty decent base and can actually compete on an even playing field, while retaining the ability to get a subscription if they feel like it.
Only problem is, it seems like cross-sharding your script would need to be made easier to avoid having shard3 impact profits too much (since if it's too hard to expand outside of shard3 due to cross-shard mechanics, players are less likely to expand and thus get a subscription).
