Okay LGVs are hilarious. I was just in copa and there was about 6 of us all on our LGVs, all playing the horn music. If there was a "Firefall in a nutshell" video, it would probably be just full of /dance, tiki torch and LGV horn.

Is FP going to make an army for Firefall?

Probably, but it seems like it's going to be a while before armies and anything worth doing in an army are implemented.

Can we only have 1 character? I tried creating another one and got an error message.

Current limit is one, that might be subject to change

What army name should facepunch have? I can reserve it, I have the technology.

Sweet, they got the Steam overlay working again

[QUOTE=Dominic0904;37806122]Firepunch.[/QUOTE] I like the name, now to reserve it I also need a tag of the army. "Army tags must be between 3 and 6 characters, and can include letters, numbers, spaces and punctuation."

FRP?
