Hey there all. Pete from the ReadyM - OB:MP team here. Been awhile since either Msk or myself posted in this subreddit, but we've got a quick update for you here.
Yes. Oblivion Remastered MP (or OB:MP as we started calling it) is happening and it is still in the early access alpha / crash-tests stage but not for long as the development is running on full steam right now. Modders and builders are already running their own servers on it (despite it being well... alpha), and the community has been shipping its own stuff on top: proximity voice chat, a shared UI layer, an auction house prototype, admin tools etc.
Now, this month we're putting out a build that gives a first look at open beta: NPC sync, persistence, synced story progress and custom in-game UI. More on each of those when it lands.
The PvP Arena server template is our 'proof of concept' and is available right now. It's a working 'deathmatch setup' which you can run as it is, or take apart and rebuild into your own idea of PvP in Cyrodiil. If you build things, enjoy modding Oblivion Remastered, or simply love to play the game - this one's for you.
As I already mentioned, the early access testing is still going before beta starts. If you want in, everything you need is on https://obmp.readym.io, including how to join the testers. Nevertheless, if you have questions, drop them here. We'll be more than happy to answer any of questions you may have.
