    But I'm sure group 3 could fit you in. I may myself be looking for a group to tide me over until group 1 starts in mid-late december.

    @Kodrak

    Group 3 is playing on the weekends, no set time yet..

    We currently have :

    luke -- elven assassin
    elendar -- half-elf conjurer
    bul -- dwarven barbarian OR fighter/cleric
    fateascends -- elven fighter/mage

    @Elendar I should be good for just about anytime on the weekend, weekdays are a little bit more sketchy but usually I'm open from around 3-6

    @elminster I didn't get the joke maybe one day :P

    @Elendar mhh That's a composition of team I haven't experienced before.. And yet no idea what to put in the party to make up for a nice balance. Any ideas?

    I'm feeling like starting a group right now for the game that will show up in 10 mins! Just roam around and try to go as far as we can :P

    @Bul Time-zone? I'm thinking Saturday afternoons/evenings

    @Kodrak well, assassins have limited points to put into their thief skills, so you could play a full out thief or a fighter / thief or some such.
  • KodrakKodrak Member Posts: 42
    @Elendar I don't really like multi-classing as i failed the other one i've tried before, but going full thief sounds like a good idea =)
  • BulBul Member Posts: 18
    @Kodrak I think the party atm is pretty balanced most classes/kits could fit in easily so probably just play what you want, we seem a little arcane heavy but but honestly I dont see that as a bad thing :)

    Also personally I wouldn't mind an archer.
  • ElendarElendar Member Posts: 831
    well, only need one more... and probably really need that to be a cleric type..

    @lukebagdarrel -- elven assassin
    @elendar -- half-elf conjurer (chaotic good)
    @bul -- dwarven barbarian/fighter/cleric/paladin
    @fateascends -- elven fighter/mage
    @Kodrak -- halfling thief (chaotic good)
  • KodrakKodrak Member Posts: 42
    @Bul I might end up being a thief with a bow who knows? :P
  • elminsterelminster Member, Developer Posts: 16,317
    @Elendar I would join your group (temporarily until group 1 is established) as a jester tonight/this weekend if it didn't mean I'd have to go back to these forums lol. But I'm sure you will find someone else for the group certainly before the weekend.

    @Elendar @Bul Do we want to use a vo-ip service for best coordination?
  • BulBul Member Posts: 18
    @Kodrak @ Elendar whatever you guys prefer, Ive used vent, skype, mumble for a short while. Have not really ever played BG multiplayer before so not sure if Its needed.

    I love playing BG Multiplayer. I saw there was another MP post. But I didn't see one centralized spot for everyone to meet. Also noticed there are way to many people (over one game capacity).

    I have a 24/7 stable hosted 512 slot teamspeak. I figured I would offer It for anyone that wants to join a game with me for MP or wants to have a game with other people. I think using voice is a huge plus for bg.

    I created a bunch of BG Channels for different groups. Feel free to jump on, just make sure you go to the BG Channel so people know what your there for.

    Thanks ( will be on around 6pm est, but you can join now or whenever you like)

    note: Admin by name of Lupus will be on to help anyone with any questions and myself.

    teamspeak ip: voice.graylinesgaming.com

    Ya so I don't want to be that guy LOL but just for assurances reasons am I the only one who still says "preload complete" on the stand alone installer?
  • KodrakKodrak Member Posts: 42
    @Elendar I'm trying to make a multiplayer to see how it was like. And remember all the tricsk and stuff :P
  • ElendarElendar Member Posts: 831
    yay, we get to wait another few hours... should just take a nap

    @elminster

    Do you have a Skype account?
  • elminsterelminster Member, Developer Posts: 16,317
    @Ascerion I do though I have no microphone.
  • ElendarElendar Member Posts: 831
    @elminster Have you clicked on where it says "Preload Complete" ? Thats how to start the download apparently..
  • ElendarElendar Member Posts: 831
    The server lives.. Thats amazing
  • NarcissistNarcissist Member Posts: 65
    I'd be interested in joining any of you who need an extra player. Just a heads up though, I was never very good at BG2 haha...

    "I'm currently working on my spells and blades, while waiting for a group of stranger pass by on their way to candlekeep to join them."
