Very dissapointed, how can I play this game when all the games are password protected? So its a Saturday night, now I know you may say get a life etc, but if you did then I would tell you that you should not expect the new player.

However, it IS Saturday night and because I am not the drunken town biscuit then I choose not to be dipped in the tea.

But how can I play this trial when all the games are passworded apart from one "FFA" of which I there are 8 players and I am of no interest in.

Dissapointed after register.

PPS have read some forum and now even more feel disillusioned. Banning players for negativity about the game? are you serious? Have never in all my days read such comments from an administrator of game. This is not Stalins Russia you know!

The passworded rooms are people playing with friends so not much can be done there.

Getting a public game might take some time. Usually there's only one room going on so if you don't like the type (like FFA here) you might need to wait a bit. In general people seem to alternate between playing FFA and large team games, with occasional small teams and 1v1. This difficulty is caused by a very small playerbase which explains being paranoid about criticism (we can't afford to lose any newbies to vet whining).

There is a singleplayer tab. If you want more players, get your friends, or ask people in #zk to join rooms.

Not so sure about this one. We'll see.

Try the "Zero-K: All Welcome" room. It is unlocked and has some people in it.

The person getting muted for negativity has more to do with "zk ded" being a reoccuring and annoying meme rather than any serious degree of censorship.

As a person that got "banned" you must be new to game developers' forums. Its quite common on the Paradox Plaza or Blizzard forums for example. This is why the independant sites around certain games are created.

This game is not a trial by any means. It is 100% free. You can even dl the source and modify it for your own leisure.
What kind of game would you rather play then? 2v2? 1v1? 12v12? It is indeed quite strange that there are no games going atm granted that it is evening and saturday. But I won't dwelve into that it might get me forum banned as if mute wasnt enough already :|

Ps. Protip: don't say "ZK is dead" it will get you muted.

Skasi's reply was not very useful. Nor was the first and last parts of mine.

There is a room titled "Zero-K: All Welcome" which is at this moment not in an ongoing game. Has four players in it. You could join that.
