PROJECT PHOENIX INITIATION CELEBRATION


It's time for this picture again.

Spoiler


"'The acquisition of the Hawken franchise to our new overlords (Reloaded Games) was finalized on March 13, 2015. There is currently a very small, very communicative, and very dedicated team working on breathing life into the mother######ng best game of all time ever sweet jesus yes Hawken.'
-ticklemyiguana"
-Michael Scott

I think this is a worthy cause to celebrate. It's been dubbed by a couple people as "Project Phoenix" and I want to get everyone back in the spirits we had at the First Annual Hawkeniversary Party.

The party will consist of continuous access to organized games and private servers for both EU and US timezones (and of course anyone else is welcome to attend), a Q and A session with capnjosh broadcast onto the official PlayHawken Twitch channel, and of course, Tigg's Hawken Hopeline Raffle.

So, like. Yeah.

It'll start at 8PM GMT for the EU side of things, and 9PM EST (to give all our West Coast friends some time to get home from work). The date of the event is Friday, April 3rd.


Like the last non-weekly event we had, you'll have the option to choose from multiple user based game modes:

Night of The Living Fred
A classic user defined gametype based on various "Zombies" modes found in other games. A deathmatch based variant, the game starts with a single player in a Fred Chassis CRT. Other players are allowed to play any other mech except predator, technician, or Fred himself. Other players are barred from repairing or using repair internals, though health orbs are allowed.

The Fred is only allowed to fire TOW rockets and can repair whenever he or she pleases. If you are killed by The Fred, you become one as well.

We will be disabling radar for this gametype.

Convoy
You've been tasked with transporting a large sum of cavorite from one base to another.
This variant is centered around a single brawler, doomed to stay in turret mode for the duration of the match. Each player gets one life, and each team is limited to strictly one tech or less. This is another variant without radar, and while one team's objective is to move their brawler from one point to another, the other team's objective is to stop it.

(In its current state, the attacking team almost always wins. Testing will occur this week in order to ascertain an appropriate balance.)

Alien VS Predator
Aliens: 1 Raider/G2 Raider and the rest scouts.
Predators: Predators and infiltrators. Any combination.

The predator team is allowed to repair, but cannot respawn. The alien (scout) team is allowed to respawn, but not repair. The scout team is allowed either one Raider or one G2 Raider as the alien queen. The queen can repair.

The predator's objective is to kill the queen and then mop up the scouts. Once the queen is destroyed, the scouts can no longer respawn.

If a predator/infil dies, they can respawn as a CRT (human), but can only use the assault rifle and cannot repair. They are technically aligned with the predator team, but the predators can destroy the humans at any point for their repair orbs. Humans cannot respawn either. (Friendly fire is enabled for this game mode).

Invincible
One incin per team. Five techs. Kill the enemy incin. Rinse, repeat.

Don't bother talking to your incin. It won't be able to hear you.

Monster
It's one mech versus six. The one gets a ludicrous amount of health.

________________________


Please feel free to suggest your own game modes!

The event will be hosted on the Officially Unofficial Hawken Teamspeak.

In order to participate in Tigg's Hawken Hopeline all you have to do is like that post <<<<<. Deadline is April 3rd at 18:30 (6:30) PM GMT.
Want a second ticket? Retweet and double your chances!

First Prize for the raffle will be $35 worth of MC.

Second Prize will be $25 worth of MC.

Third Prize will be $10 worth of MC.

Reloaded will generate MC codes for the winners.

It's gon be awesome.

 

UPDATE:

 

capnjosh has agreed to participate in a Q&A session one hour prior to the event. That means he will be on twice to answer questions. Once from 19:00 to 20:00 GMT (7 PM to 8 PM) for the EU side of things, and once from 20:00 to 21:00 EST (8 PM to 9 PM) for the NA side.

 

The event will be broadcast to the OfficialHAWKEN Twitch Channel and will be occurring on the Hawken TeamSpeak. All members of our community are free to attend.

 

This is a great chance for our community to voice whatever concerns we may have and for Reloaded to take them into consideration.

 

 

THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED, EVERYONE WHO ASSISTED, AND ESPECIALLY A THANK YOU TO DR_FREEZE001 FOR MANAGING THE EUROPEAN HALF OF THIS EVENT.

I fuzzy bunnyNG LOVE YOU ALL.

Ah well.

Too bad for them.

 

Thanks for the heads up though.

Btw, considering I've never seen you play, you should attend, if only to ask Josh questions.

Just noticed, under the Convoy section, the second paragraph cuts off midsentence.

Goodness. You know I'm pretty smashed most of the time that I'm on here. I edit on the fly most of the time. Thanks for the (second) heads up.

Question: Isn't that day Good Friday?

 

It's not a problem for me since, in AU time, the American side is at around 9am on the Saturday (so I'm literally in the future), but I'm sure that at least some people have a service on that day. But then again, it is late-ish in the night so it may be over or something.

 

Don't take this the wrong way - I'm not hating or anything, but I'm just trying to consider for others...even though I may be completely wrong.

Oh no! No, it's certainly not a thing I'd thought of. Please, if anyone has an issue, let me know and I will reschedule should an appropriate number of people be unable to attend due to religious reasons. My apologies. I am entirely unaware of these things.

I'd think that the services would be over so I don't think that it'd be a major problem. :)

 

But I can't wait to join this. :D After being part of the previous "Hawken Birthday Party" event last year, I've been wanting to do this so badly and talk to all of you guys again! Also wouldn't mind seeing the new devs for once in my life if they are coming. Only problem is that I may get locked out because my MMR is currently 1844. ^^;

What if we just give some bacon paint, some bacon holo-emotes and change Bunker from snow to bacon.

 

This way, everyone will be happy.

What you should really do, is replace your parts with bacon, so you can cook games and eat bacon

Obviously the wallpaper would be cooler if bacon was incorporated into it.

i was around 1494mmr at the last one, and the Usual Suspects responsible for this carnage will likely be delighted to make the necessary moves to allow you in to feast upon as well (we now have Private Servers!). :D

Hmm, I realize that day is Good Friday. I may or may not show up (or just be late), depending if I have an evening service for Good Friday or not. Either way, if I'm not there, I'll be there in spirit!

This should be advertised on the official Hawken Facebook and/or Twitter.

You have a ticket.

You suck.

Good! Appropriate name.

 

 

So, it's a day, at the end of the week, where we all gather up, play HAWKEN, play new game modes, and celebrate HAWKEN.

Ready to Roll Out!

Yes. Yes. And Yes.

It'd be ideal if it were possible to make radar only available to humans, but I doubt that is an available option.

It's unfortunate, but I don't think that I am able to participate in the event because my laptop just blew up. Well, not literally, but supposedly "the SSD had overheated" or something. So my laptop is kaput and we are only sending it off to be repaired after the event. So much sadness. ;(
