Sea of Thieves is a PC and Xbox One action/adventure game that allows cross play between the two where you form a crew of up to 4 and sail around looking for treasure and having other adventures. If we have more than 4, we will split into several crews. It is tough to play together with multiple crews with the current game design, but we will make a few attempts to get on the same server together with multiple ships at the start, so try to be there on time for this purpose. In order to maximize our odds of getting more than one ship on the same server, please download the Windscribe VPN client, sign up for a free account, and have it installed and ready to use for these nights. It is easy to use and gives you 10 GBs of free data each month.

Make sure to check the game on the Microsoft store app prior to community night to see if there is an update that needs to be downloaded/installed by the store app! Also, if you buy the game through the Microsoft store on either the PC or Xbox, you can install and play it on both the PC and Xbox One simultaneously. You can try it for a month for $1. See below.

L4D2 sound cache file updated for latest update
Posted on Wednesday October 07, 2020

I forgot that we needed to update the sound cache file based on the latest update. You can download it at the link below and then copy it over the one that exists in your team/steamapps/common/Left 4 Dead 2/left4dead2/sound folder. Alternatively, you could open L4D2, bring down the console (~), and use the command snd_rebuildaudiocache.

New game: i will eat you, on sale for $2.50
Posted on Wednesday September 09, 2020

We have found a new game to distract us occasionally with something different and zany. It's on sale for $2.50. It's normally $5, but who does not want to save $2.50! We will work this in randomly after community nights or at WAN/LAN parties. You can play with up to 12 on a password-protected server. Think hide and seek although the rabbit soccer mode is epic.
