Stargate Transport Nearly Complete

After encoding chevron 7 and traveling through a very long and exhausting worm hole, I am happy to report that the dev team is settling in to our new home.

As everyone is aware there was extended downtime as we moved servers to a better facility and though we apologize for that inconvenience, we are excited to be up and running again!

I can't wait to release the new map and some other treats that we have in store.....soon.

Cheers,

Kat

That sounds like a good idea. And great news

i would be very interested in seeing some pics of the new hq once it's all set up. i have always been fascinated by underground bunkers, i spent much time when i was a teenager exploring and just hanging out in an abandoned missile silo in my home town. it occurred to me that for the first time, there is actually a stargate in an underground bunker. i'm sure there are more than a few people that would gladly pay for a tour. if i lived nearby i'd probably be knocking on the door right now. i'd like to see pics of the surface, the entrance, the corridors, the backup generator room and of course the gateroom. i even think it would be cool to play on a map based on firesky command complex.

What's going to happen to the old offices? Demolition or is someone else moving in there?

EDIT: More importantly, did you bring that stargate from the old base with you?

I'd assume the landlord of the previous offices will seek new tenants. The stargate is indeed with us. Portions are in a shop for precise digital measurement, the rest in storage for now. We'll reassemble it soon.

Good to see you guys got a new home! Hopefully there is lots of news to come regarding both games and the future of whats to come for the company

What he forgot to mention is that is our servers which are located in an old bunker, not us. While it might be cool, cell phone reception would be aweful and I do not think any underground facility in the Phoneix area has ceilings tall enough for the stargate. (I did not do actual research on this matter, its more of a hunch)

Great way to get some exposure and call one of those ghost hunter tv shows!

Were you talking about wanting pics of the office or the bunker? I'd kind of like to see pics of the bunker myself. ;-)

(Can I get an orange name?)

biggest disappointment since the downtime! well, i guess you could just slap a stargate sticker on the front of the server case. that is, if you're even allowed into the bunker, which you're probably not. now it sounds more like a work from home situation while paying a hosting company for some server space.
but hey, i'm not complaining. i support any action that keeps the game alive, but the coolness factor of the bunker idea is mostly gone.

Not really. The public game servers were never in our office.

i guess that sounded kinda negative but i didn't mean it like that. i just meant that that situation sounded like a probable cost cutting measure, which is far from what many of us were likely imagining after hearing about the bunker.
