Evening Reading
by Brian Leahy, Sep 08, 2010 5:00pm PDTSimilar to StarCraft II, I've begun publishing multiplayer guides for Halo: Reach, which comes out next week. Are these things you enjoy reading? It's a bit selective as it requires a good amount of proficiency at a game to be able to write a guide, but it's definitely something the Shacknews team can look into producing for new games moving forward... if we happen to be skilled at them.
What other games would you like to see guides written for?

When: Tonight, 9PM Eastern!
BF:BC2 Server: Dallas EFF YEAH (currently locked down and ready - password is the standard Shacknews password for such things and is visible in my profile)
TS3 - Rydoggs TS3 server.
I created Team One and Team Two channels in the Bad Company 2 - Dallas EFF YEAH!! Channel on the TS3 server.
You should create a Hotkey to switch yourself to either the Team One or Team Two channels (I'm using Control-Shift-1 / 2) and one to switch you back to main (Control-Shift-m). Setting up Hotkeys in TS3 is very easy - under Settings, go to Options, click on Hotkeys, and there you can set them up. When finished, your controls should look like this: http://pics.notforjeff.com/gallery.php?entry=Images/ts3hotkeys.png
Meet up in the main TS3 channel at 9. We'll split into two groups and go into our respective channels and form up squads. Autobalance has been turned off, so we'll have to keep an eye on that and adjust.
Oh, we'll be playing RUSH mode tonight, and since the server is locked down you won't get any points that will effect your stats/leveling.
