It's time to ROCK! 

That's right, we'll have a full Rock Band 4 setup in the Gallery area at epic.SEVENTEEN for everyone to enjoy throughout the weekend, this area will be separate to the normal console area so you can rock non-stop. It's even got the cymbal expansion for the drum kit, so you can go full on animal style. 

More news coming soon for more social games taking place at our next sellout event in just 4 weeks!

New Forum Update

Forum ChangesSo, as you may have noticed, the forums have changed a little. 

For the last 4/5 years we have been running Invision Power Board, and we still are, just the latest shiny version which brings some funky features! :) Some of which I have listed below: 

  • New shiny, lighter theme! It may take a little bit of getting used to, but we like it :)
  • Streams - Don't cross them! Activity streams are new feeds of information you can get from the forums, calendar & gallery. There are already a selection of existing ones (Unread content, content I follow, content I started) but you can create your own feeds for anything you like or are interested in.
  • epic.Gallery - All our pictures inside the forum gallery. This means you can rate pictures, comment on them and tag people in comments
  • User tagging. Go on @someone today! 
  • Responsiveness - We no longer need multiple themes for desktop and mobile device. Just one will do

There are lots of other little bits as well, too much to all add here. If you notice anything wrong in particular please feel free to leave your feedback below and we will have a look at them.

We still have some final tweaking to complete so please bear with us while any issues are ironed out :)

Join the 2016 epic.Team

As we prepare to launch head first in to a new year of events, we're looking out for keen people to join the team for the coming year. 

Our events would not be possible without the hard work and dedication of our volunteer teams who give up their time to put on our epic.LAN events. Not only do we have our own events to put on, but we're getting involved more and more with other industry events, giving people some amazing opportunities in the gaming and eSports industry.

It's hard work, but as the current team will tell you, it's extremely rewarding!
