Ok so I know some people from Viola interactive & their new game Pitfighters is going through its multiplayer test phase so if anybody would like to help out all you have to is register on the forum & ask.

www.pitfighters.com

Could you provide detals about this game. like what type of game it is ect.

Pitfighters is an online 3D first person shooter (or third person if you like) based in arena’s with a futuristic setting. It is similar to Deathmatch but with a certain amount of lives per game.

The next session will be:

WEDNESDAY 2nd February, 19.00 GMT (20.00 CET)

But like I said there is nothing futuristic about it yet. We're only playing one map but that's not even what were testing.

It looks pretty good, I'm going to give it a try .

I've tried it here on offline mode...and it's like random...the 3d guns are nothing special(sorry to say..)but i think it has pontential to go forward...

I only have 1 gun which is the crossbow
Edit: Nvm, found the shotgun and uzi (1, 2 and 3 change your weapons )

But it does look like is has potential.

the cross bow is more or less...if u press 1.2.3. u'll have the machine gun and the shotgun...

Hello all,

Thanks for your comments about Pitfighters. I understand the presumption that 'what you're seeing is what you're going to get', but it's far, far from that. The currently available EXE of Pitfighters is simply a game engine/MP communications test. Nothing in the EXE relates to Pitfighters. The 3D meshes, levels, particle effects, sounds and physics are simply there so that testers can do something (we didn't think anyone would be interested in being a null_object floating around in a black space ).

Hope I cleared that up, and I hope you might make a visit sometime to see how we are doing. To give you an estimate on time scale we are looking at around 6-8 months to completely finish the game, although we hope to have a useable version of Pitfighters available in a month or so. We are currently working on the main character model and main menu design.

Obviously anyone who gives a certain level of dedication to the testing of Pitfighters will be rewarded with creditation and possibly Moderator level access within the final game.

Thanks again,

Jay Frank
