I'll join, I can't provide hosting of any kind, wish I could though, however I'm not too shabby of a player.

Well then set up a server of your own! Instant low-ping server! :)

I'm sure if you don't then someone else will... You can't be the only person playing Savage in that area of the world...

In their forums a guy stated the S2 team didn't have an AI programmer so no Single-Player and no bots.

Single player doesn't fit well into a game like this anyway, since it's either FPS or RTS, you can't have the same experiance like Multiplayer, however you could have objectives in a multiplayer game like RTCW.

Just had to speak up, there is no truth to that. There are no bots because we didn't want people to have to play against bots when the world is full of willing players who will give you a much better experience than a bot ever will. We actually do have a very accomplished AI programmer working on Savage.

I remember when CounterStrike came out originally people griped and moaned for months about bots not being released... My question is why do they bother to buy/download a internet based game if they are not wanting to play online?

Slothy, Savage is a great game... keep up the good work

Not everyone plays these games on the internet. Some due LAN play with a small group of friends or just want to fire up the game and do a few mins against bots on a map or in a situation you don't normally see.

Plus bots are good for practicing against if you're a newbie.

Yes, the game is available now. EB and Gamestop stores have it for $49, or you can buy a downloadable copy from igames.com for $39.

I found out about these forums because the Gentoo guys rock :) All of the official S2 servers are running on Gentoo Linux, actually.

Well, the game itself can be said to rock. You and the rest of the S2 team did a fantastic job. Thanks for a great game.

It seems that a lot of the people who play the game with Linux use Gentoo too.

I haven't been able to find system recommendations for Savage - and I'm afraid my putter needs more punch to play it.

But it sure looks nice at least - I hope the gameplay is above average though.

Over the weekend I was playing on my older computer that sports the following specs:

PIII 500
256MB ram
GeForce 2

I had the GFX set to middle of the road and the puter ran Savage just fine.

Good to hear that and thanks for clearing this up. I should have added that this hasn't been an official post on your forums... anyway, I just have to agree to what has been said: SAVAGE ROCKS! No other game got me like yours within the last couple o' years! Keep up the good work and keep your creative minds!

Hi,

I was anticiparing SAVAGE for Linux a long time. I want to play this on my Gentoo/Redhat PC, but there is maybe a problem> I live in Slovakia, Europe, so I dont know, if it will be wise to buy downloadable 39$ version. Are any SAVAGE servers nearby - Germany, Czech rebublic, Poland atc ?

I have 256kb MW line, so download is slow - how many CD has SAVAGE ?

I bought the downloadable game, it worked just fine.

You get access to an iso of the cd, linux only installer, or windows only installer, and the manual in addition to the reg key.
