Sparc

 
'Good game, everyone'Jul 1, 2022 - Community AnnouncementsvSports fans All good things come to an end, even to plasma-clad champion athletes. Today, we have begun the process of discontinuing support for Sparc to focus CCP Games’ efforts and resources on new developments in our evolving portfolio of EVE Universe titles. We are extremely proud of what we accomplished with Sparc and want to extend our deep appreciation to all our players for their support throughout the game’s lifecycle. It is an honor to have been part of such a dedicated community. For the time being, you won’t see any effect if you own a copy of the game. The game will continue to be playable with our servers remaining active until Fri 5 August 2022. On Fri 5 August 2022, Sparc’s servers will be turned off, social media profiles will be closed, and this website will go offline. Once servers are deactivated, customer support for Sparc will no longer be provided. Thank you for being a part of Sparc. We remain open to exploring future opportunities in the VR space, but for now, we look forward to the next chapter of the EVE Universe. We hope you'll be a part of it and continue the journey with us. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/31143523/dc12c53f9f121e9913e2ee010341799a0d56b6e9.pngCCP Publisher Week, Save up to 50% Off!Sep 24, 2019 - AnnouncementCCP Publisher Week, save up to 50% on CCP titles*! *Offer ends Friday at 10AM Pacific Time Sparc FREE Weekend!Jul 11, 2019 - Community Announcementshttps://media.giphy.com/media/Jo82PnYGEiM3YEVnS1/giphy.gif We are please to announce a Sparc FREE Weekend!

New Update Live!Jul 9, 2019 - Community Announcementshttps://media.giphy.com/media/UvJwJoAQOldPbB3gUe/giphy.gif Please welcome Sparc - Championship Update Today we are pleased to announce a new free update to our popular vSport game - Sparc. You are free to join and discuss the new update on our official discord: https://discord.gg/bAmNHvE The update includes the following features: New Online Modes Quick Play - This is the fastest way to get into the action with other players. Select the desired game mode (Basic or Advanced) and join through Quick Play, Public Custom Game or Create Your Own Game (to which other Quick Play players can join). Custom Games - Browse a list of available games or choose to create a custom game with the desired game mode and privacy settings. Optional password settings are provided for both players and spectators. Ranked - Compete in a cross-platform competitive mode using the Advanced rules. Ranked Mode The ranked queue gathers players and launches a new wave of competitive matches every 10 minutes. This wave-based approach is designed to provide the best matchmaking experience possible. Waves start at regular intervals so players can plan around the queue time and access the largest pool of participants. Matchmaking uses a player’s recent record to determine whether they need to be "punching up" or "punching down". Players moving up the ladder will be matched against more difficult opponents if possible. Rank is defined as a tier (Legend, Diamond, Gold, Silver, Bronze) and a percentile Position (1-100) within that tier. The Legend tier only contains the top 10 players in the world. Players are Unranked until completing their first 10 ranked games, after which their current ranking is displayed. The Leaderboard is visible on the Ranked Play Online screen, which will display the Top 10 Legend ranked players. At the end of a ranked game, players will be shown their pre- and post- game rankings. Spectating Tools Custom games can be joined as a headless spectator that will not occupy a player slot and is invisible to both players and other spectators. Players can cycle through preset camera locations to view the action or free-fly using their controllers to propel themselves around the arena. The number of spectators viewing a game will be visible on the in-game scoreboard. Spectators do not have voice communication privileges and will neither hear or transmit what's being said by players or other spectators.

If you own the game on Steam, and own a Rift, but would prefer to launch the game with Oculus APIs instead of SteamVR, we have enabled an opt-in/experimental way to do this. Right-click on the game in your Steam library and select properties. On the properties menu, select the Betas tab and select “oculus_beta”. Once the game finishes updating you can launch it and it should start via Oculus. NOTE: You will not receive in-game notifications of friend invites; you will have to refer to your 2-D Steam UI to handle friend interactions. You can always switch back to the “NONE” option in Betas to restore the default behavior." Players can activate a spectator to your monitor with the console command ToggleSpectatorScreen This mode will auto rotate between 4 set camera view points. NOTE: You are not required to use the “oculus_beta” build, this feature works on the default build as well. http://cdn.edgecast.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/31143523/b4faad19de0b003f6fb4f0a38bb9850c0ed8fbc9.jpg http://cdn.edgecast.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/31143523/dc12c53f9f121e9913e2ee010341799a0d56b6e9.png http://cdn.edgecast.steamstatic.com/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/31143523/935325a91a58d3435a5fe9ac6709890065ad0168.jpgAlternate Launch Option for Steam and Spectator OptionNov 17, 2017 - Community AnnouncementsWe've heard your feedback in regards to using Oculus through Steam.
