Obsidian Conflict Forums

With the upcoming release of the game, we all feel that we should bring the community closer toghther and make it easier for them to communicate with one another.

mIRC is a program which allows people to chat, and be able to talk to the developer team (if there,there of course). mIRC is available at this website:

http://www.mIRC.com

Here are the details for the Obsidian Conflict IRC:

Server: irc.gamesurge.net
Channel: #obsidianconflict

How To:

Download and run the install. Extract it to your choice of destination i.e C:/program files/mirc. Then hit run. Remember to allow this program to access the internet, by adding it to your list of allowed apllication in your firewall, if you have one.

mIRC will start and show the Options Dialog and require you to fill in some information.

In the mIRC Options dialog you see an options tree structure. You can expand a branch of the tree (a Category) by selecting an item (Connect, IRC, Sounds,..) and clicking on the little 'plus' sign. A list of sub-items will unfold. At first only the main 'Connect' menu item seen above, has to be filled in. Select 'Connect' on the option tree.

Fill in a name, email and whatever Nickname you want to use. Alternate name is optional.

Now back on the option tree select 'Servers'. Click the Add button.

After clicking the Add button a new window will pop up Fill in the following:

Description: irc.gamesurge.net
IRC Server: irc.gamesurge.net
Port: 6667

Leave Group and password blank. When you finished typing all that in click the add button.

Now you should be back to the mIRC Option window again on the Servers page still and the server you just added should appear in the IRC Server drop down menu.

Click the Connect To Server button. Once connect type in the window

/j #obsidianconflict

We hope to see you there!

if you mean Mirc then by all means please download it. Afterall its not a free program for nothing.

It's too bad everyone thinks mirc is stupid. But I guess unless we get most of the OC team on it, it wont be much more then a basic chatroom. I was hoping to use it as a place where the dev team could talk to the fans about features and stuff that was currently being worked on. =/

Is there by any chance possible to be on two different servers with one client? I'd love to join the oc-channel but I'm usually hangin' out on the quakenet-server :/

Yeah you can. It should prompt you to either change server or open a new connection.

You can always check 'New Server Window' if you're connecting through the options screen. Alternatively, right-click the connection button in the top-left corner (the lightning bolt/s) and select 'New Server Window', then manually enter the connection command.

(ie, /s irc.gamesurge.net to connect to GS.)

Why don't you just go on gamerzunlimited teamspeak? its pretty much the same only you can talk and its not stupid

personally if we were going to talk to the fans about something I would think using Teamspeak would be better
the amount of crap tyhat can become stolen over IRC is ridiculous
I would go TS or Xfire
you know those famous talks that they have only we would be seeing the questions you write on the forums and post the snawers later..ya..that'd be koo

Teamspeak or vent always felt weird to me, talking to myself but im not

I was wondering about that too. Sean Connery is another idol of mine.
