Hello,
I've been watching this engine for a while, and just found someone online to play with. The game plays beautifully, but there seems to be noone playing!!!
The last update was a couple months ago, the last post, about a month ago, and there is no central place for servers to identify themselves (ie: a master server), and the community is so scattered, its almost impossible to get any kind of message out to anyone.
Is this project dead, or is it secretly being worked on by Aardappel, who is sitting on it like a pile of gold?
Has anyone tried to make some kind of server browser (other than the one at CubeWorld, which sucks IMO), master server, or some kind of query system that stores active servers in a list?

I agree there - but I'll think about an interface to external browsers anyway. If it gets cube more players... =)

i really like the eye, i think its great how i can see who is in what games, and then go and join that game, i use it for half life and its mods as the ingame thing, like most games i play (ie JK2 as well) just dont show it all easy

I played jk2 for a while, but the game had balancing problems, and using a random number generator in any aspect of determining damage makes a game kiss goodbye to tournament play.
CTF was fun though, because with the right mix of speed, jump and force push you could blow past any number of people and grab the flag easy. :)

I agree with Aard that in-game browsers are best (quicker and easier, generally), but I would have thought that a simple web-based viewer could sit on top of the same master server database to just provide a window into all the current games. Then you've got the best of both worlds :)

I don't ever use eye or gamespy, but I think it would be REALLY good if you can get Cube on there. I love the game, but I'm lucky to find 1 other person playing.

It would be interesting to see if Qtracker could be set up to work with Cube. It's like GS Arcade, but with a lighter client.
