Frozen Synapse "The Ultimate Tactical Game" from Mode 7

My in game name is Renji. I don't really know what I'm doing yet but trial by fire and all that.

Game name tals

Game name is lordpolish

ThinJ, did you get your code?

This whole not being able to Login thing is really annoying.

I did it last night, but it took a minute or two to log me in.

I'm Redwing in game.

I think I said it earlier, but I wanna get some games in so I thought I'd be more clear now everyone is diving in! I've added everyone on the thread who I can find, not sure if the friend system is two way in this, but add me up anyway if I missed you.

Yeah it's been cruddy all morning. The single player is fun but nowhere near as fun and PvP

They put up 2 new servers but the only problem is if you started a game on one server you can't go into another and play the game against your opponent.

I do love that I can have 5 active games, submit my moves and come back when someone else moved. It's the same as playing Words with Friends or any of the With Friends games.

If you bought the soundtrack edition on steam (it's awesome) here is how you actually get the music:

1.) Go to Steam>View>Tools
2.) Look for "Frozen Synapse - Soundtrack"
3.) Install it.

- The following is where to locate the files after download:

1.) Go to C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\frozen synapse\Soundtrack

Those cursed with the fruit affliction, the soundtrack downloads with the main game, and you locate it here:

(user)/Library/Application Support/Steam/Steam Apps/Common/Frozen Synapse

Inside that little directory, you should find the main app, a launch.bat file, and 11 little MP3s for you eager digestion.

Apologies for the double post, just trying to 'keep it clean'.

I'm not even getting anywhere through Steam on the Mac.

I know, those two factors alone put me at the bottom of the to do list

I can't even get past the 'load screen' though to even have a go at the single player. Any suggestions?

EDIT:
Almost identical scenario, posting link here for other Mac users.

Here's what I've been able to add to my friends list:

Note the awesome records. Yes, the servers need some flippin' help, eh? Anyway, I'm trying to play a round with grobstein. I got in but then got booted. I don't know why my theoretical moves require a connection with the server.

Anyway, what's the deal with the parenthesized numbers next to our names?

Yeah! Sorry, I fell asleep last night before I got back to my PC and then had to work this morning. It's downloading now though

Many thanks to you sir.

*Would love to try it, but it appears the "Grand Server" is down? Or still down?

Ah well. I'll give it another shot later on this evening.

Isn't it your level in the game?

Yeah, the number in the (#) is the person's level. The "Record" is your personal record against that player.

I'm OzymandiasAV on there, though I haven't fired it up in a long while. Feel free to add me to the list.

I am Avinite in Frozen Synapse, but I haven't played a single game yet, and won't be able to get online for a few more days. Still, when I get online I'd be happy to play any of you and lose hideously. I am terrible at this kind of thinking.

Frozen Synapse name is raptordinance

I'm carrotpanic. We should set up a gdoc...

I'm Sway, but I still haven't been able to log in.

Got everyone added that is posted so far.

I just tried and still can't log in

Name is ThinJ on there though.

We might want to consider locking down the Steam group... I'm getting spammed through it by random strangers asking for my spare friend code for the game. You ask them what their GWJ forum name is and they say they have no idea what it is or have never heard of the site.

Random beggars... sometimes I wonder what goes through their minds and how they work. Most of the times I'm just glad I don't know that.

Just got the game, KrazyTacoFO. Could I get into the GWJ steam group?

Public group, just select it and join.

I just updated the friend list up to Taco. Maybe Mixolide can update the original post with the list, and a link to the Steam group?

Anyone else get begged by Resenses? He begged me, I told him I didn't have an extra copy, he said "ok np :)".....and then asked me again 30 minutes later.

I couldn't resist at 2 copies for 20 dollars, so I got a copy for me and my son. Unfortunately, he has an ATI card that is outside of their support cycle, so I can't find a driver for an X1900XT that supports the latest OpenGL. If anyone has any tips, I would very much appreciate them. In the meantime, this is the list of GWJ people I saw who put their FS name in this thread.
