Re: Ogre Computer Game
Thanks for the advice. I could install the game in my wife six-screen PC, actually, which requires some ninja/hacking skills. After all the OGRE stuff I bought (and still buying) she may question my mental sanity....

Re: Ogre Computer Game
Are you saying she doesn't already question it?

Re: Ogre Computer Game
Maybe your wife needs some OGRE therapy. Drag her to a convention and let the dice fall where they may >:)

Re: Ogre Computer Game
If I lived in the US, I would do that for sure! She is a lovely woman but really not into gaming. I am rolling 1-2 on CRT to get her playing anything. She played OGRE once, though. That was sonething lovely.

Re: Ogre Computer Game
Hi folks!
Just a quick note in here that our digital adaptation of Ogre is now accepting beta testers applications! In a beta test, we provide you with an unreleased version of the game to take out for a spin - try out the systems we’ve implemented, see what we’ve built - and then you give us feedback. You might encounter the odd bug here or there, so we’ll expect you to send us bug reports as well. It’s an exciting opportunity to see a game before it’s released, as well as providing meaningful criticism to help shape this very special digital adaptation of Ogre. Want to get involved? Fantastic. Please read the following instructions carefully... With your application to become an official Ogre beta tester, it’s crucial that you tell us:
Send all of that information to us via our sign up form by the closing date of September 6th at 5PM UK time and we’ll be in touch some time after that date via e-mail to let you know if you’ve been chosen. Please note:
Got all that? Ace! Any questions about joining the beta? Feel free to e-mail me or post them here. Thanks! |

Re: Ogre Computer Game
Hello everyone!
Jake from Auroch Digital here, and wow do we have a Christmas treat for you! You may be aware that we’ve been running Ogre Multiplayer Fridays recently as a way to get as many people involved in multiplayer games as possible. These have been good fun and have led to some fantastic games between members of this great community, and even between the developers and fans! This week, as it’s the final Friday before Christmas, we’re giving you a chance to play not just against the developers of the digital adaptation, but against a range of Ogre and Steve Jackson Games’ royalty and celebrities, including the man himself! The full list of celebrities and Ogre experts taking part is as follows; Steve Jackson - the legendary designer of Ogre, GURPS, Car Wars, Munchkin and more… Available between 11 am - 4 pm EST, 4 pm - 9 pm UK Winchell Chung - the man behind the iconic artwork of the original board game. 12 pm - 4 pm EST, 5 pm - 9 pm UK Steven J Marsh - GURPS Project Manager. 4 pm - 8 pm EST, 9 pm - 1 am UK Drew Metzger - Ogre Line Editor. 2 pm - 5 pm EST, 7 pm - 10 pm UK Devin Lewis - Game Designer and Munchkin Editorial Assistant. 5 pm - 8 pm EST, 10 pm - 1 am UK. Jake Connor - that’s me! Community Manager at Auroch Digital. 10 am - 2 pm EST, 3 pm - 7 pm UK. Steve Martin - Designer on the Ogre Steam adaptation. 10 am - 2 pm EST, 3 pm - 7 pm UK All you need to do is log in at any of the above times, head to ‘Ranked Matchmaking’ and begin searching! Important note - matchmaking is random and there is no strict guarantee that you will definitely be matched with any of the noted participants above. We will be available throughout the day and playing against the first opponents we match against. We will be playing multiple games so if you don’t match someone above immediately, feel free to try again later! As a rule of thumb, a game takes around 30-45 mins. As always on Multiplayer Fridays, there are six key times to be aware of, if you want to keep matching fellow players outside of the celebrity slots: Friday 22nd December UK - 3PM, 5PM, 7PM, 9PM, 11PM, 1AM Eastern - 10AM, 12PM, 2PM, 4PM, 6PM, 8PM Pacific - 07AM, 09AM, 11AM, 1PM, 3PM, 5PM While you do need to be online to matchmake with an opponent, once a game is in progress you can safely log off, play single player or other multiplayer games, and make custom scenarios. You’ll also receive a notification within Steam whenever your opponent finishes all their actions - perfect if your opponent is halfway across the world. Just remember that if you are playing a celebrity, you need to complete your game during their scheduled time slot on December 22. Pro tip: you can participate in multiple games at once. Simply repeat the procedure to enter a Ranked or Custom Game. To see your active games, just go to the Multiplayer screen, and select 'Active Games'. You should see 'Ranked' and 'Custom' tabs, where each type of game is held. We look forward to seeing you on the battlefield this Friday! PLEASE NOTE: If you encounter any issues with turn switching/phase ending, please let us know using the information here. It's an edge-case issue, so hopefully you won't encounter it at all, but we've added more logging to the back-end of the game so if you do send us a log, we should be able to get it tracked and solved ASAP. If you do encounter any issues, it's normally worth quitting back to the menu and re-entering the game, as this often 'refreshes' your game :) Thanks! |
