Anyone besides 3fingers and I play Counterstrike or Team Fortress 2? Actually, there are other online games I enjoy as well. I figured anyone who's into the PC gaming thing might like to chime in and add themselves to the list this way we might find some good gaming action between ourselves. Any interest? Anyone? Beuller? Anyone?

I'm not really up to spec on what's hot and what's not in the world of games. A plethora of games lie unfinished on my hard drive with the exception of Duke Nukem, Max Payne, and Puzzle Bobble ! :lol:

However, one game I thought was fun to play online was Midtown Madness. There was something funny about chasing you mate around the streets of London and San Francisco. I used to love ramming my friend off the Golden Gate bridge.

Like I say, not an up to date game, but just tonnes of fun !

Put me down for Counter Strike... I am sickened by the speed of that game and the kids who play it.

I am RUBBISH at it, but on the odd occasion I am creeping up behind a terrorist and I trip and my gun goes off in the back of their head :D....I feel a tremendous sense of achievement and that everything is right in the world.

Still, I guess you guys are old and slow enough for me to get some frags in. Hehe.... Bring it on! :thumb:

P.S. Aren't we Gblast as opposed to G101 ?

:notme:

If it's anything like Unreal Tournament, I couldn't finish respawning before some fecker had fragged me again with a headshot ! I never even got to see tha bastard, and just spent 10 minutes or so hitting the space bar repeatedly to respawn !

All I'd ever hear is someone saying, "I am the alpha and the omega" for 10 minutes, along with reading the text, "You've been killed, hit space to respawn".

:lol:

Probably why I gave up online gaming !!!

:mad1:

HAHAH Busted! Sting has been puttin' it about!

I don't play CS but I do play Day Of Defeat. I don't enjoy CS,.because the game play is so different that DOD. I also like the way DOD is like an old school war game. I've tried CS alot of times,..but I always go back to DOD.

Johnny

I like DoD and Team Fortress as well.

Yes, I made a typo with the title. My bad.

So, the best way to do this is via steam. We can add one another, text chat, and VoIP. We have CS, DoD, and TF2 so far. This is great.

Any more takers? Sergio? Where are you?

Well, I will watch with interest to see if I could get involved or not. Even if I am shit, it would be fun getting cyber twatted by you guys...

:D

I downloaded and installed 3DMark06 (limited freeware version). It's a pretty sizeable download - geez. Anyway, here's a visual on the results I just scored using unoptimized drivers and no overclocking of either CPU or GPU. I am not running in dual SLI. This is a single 512mb 8800GT and a Q6600 2.4ghz CPU system with 3GB Dual Channel DDR2 SDRAM at 800MHz. OS is Windows Vista Home Premium.

I have only been invited to join 1 clan in my onlife lifetime...and that is ETQW..for me that's my game for now, however, the free download RTCW:ET is free and has some of the best gameplay period. I will meet any of you guys there. It's superb imo. I will do CS, but it's one shot one kill, and I am not Superman, so I die lots!! But either Quake Wars Enemy Teritory, or good old (and totally free http://enemy-territory.4players.de:1041/news.php. The graphics aren't great, but imo, there has never been an online game with that much "pull" if you will. I love it like Pookie loves Crack!!! :)

I'm not really much into online games anymore since I've got my PS3, however, I will say that there are no words to describe the World of Warcraft experience. It really is one of the best games you'll ever play until you realize how repetitive, pointless, and boring it is (but that wont happen for a few months, so enjoy it!)

I edited the title. Shame on you Pete :stick:

It would be fun to kick all your asses. I'm not up on the gaming latest but maybe we should pick a game that we can all play for free like America's Army or something:dunno:

Charles, download steam for free and for a mere $19 bucks you can download CS Source. C'mon now the Looney is quite powerful as of late. :)

Oh, and I agree. I would love to lay a beat down on you as well!

Shouldn´t you be helping changing the baby´s diappers, mixing powder milk, waking up 5 times through the night and all that usual stuff by nowadays? :p
I´d be willing to play as well, would be fun. Still have steam installed, naked without the games. Easy fix. But I guess latency wouldn´t let my bullets get there in time, as they´d prolly stop in the middle of the pond. Usually I have around 50 -60 ping when playing over at Uk-German servers, but when I´ve played over at some east coast one it raised up to 150 at the least. No prob, I´ll snipe ya´ll in no time, :P

This sound like fun..but I am afraid of those Canadians....watch out for them...they are badass!! (My vote would be to get the free download of RTCW:ET) Check it out here: http://www.planetwolfenstein.com/enemyterritory/

This looks like a good game that we all can play. It's free, has low minimum requirements and there are versions for Windows, Mac and Linux:thumb:

Yes!! But take it easy on us PG!! :) If you play games like you do Fantasy Football...it will be a long evening for us all. :)

It's really a great game to play and we can find a server where we can all meet up. Just don't hit me with a Hockey stick...;)

Never played CS, used to play UT back in the day, CoD, and Battlefield 2 more recently, but my comp is so far behind these days that it won't play anything modern lol, but when i get back into the 21st century i might join'ya :)

I understand Jamie, but this game runs on minimum specs. You don't need a powerhouse PC at all. In fact...what's nice is it won't even help if you do.

Mostly gaining experience points by achieving certain goals gives you things like faster reload, better health, things like that. It's a game that was made years ago. I am confident anyone with a PC made since 2000 could play it. ;)

2000? hmmm its touch and go then with mine :lol:
I'll download it at the weekend, if its as fun as CoD or UT2003 you'll see me on there for sure :)

I'm gonna down load this as soon as I get home (which will be Sunday night)

I want to download this game but I'm paying to subscribe to do so. Anyone have all three files available?

You guys playing this ?... I might have a look at it. If it sucks im going back to PS3 and UT2003 PC though.

This game is totally free. Trust me..if any of you can run UT even the first version...this will work..no problems. Lets get some more thoughts. We can all start on a neutral server where all our XP (experience points) are zero and work from there. We can even join up our own "fireteam" which means we all can communicate with eachother in game and help each other out. It's really one of the most interactive gripping games I have played. Now note this though: If you join a server where "XP" (experience Points are kept), you will be slightly frustrated. Find a server that does not save XP and that will be the one we can meet up on. If I have to, I will setup a private server in my home. I need PG to help me with the config, but I have a few PC's we can run this from and I try and find a way to keep it on 24/7 for you guys to have fun on. Cheers!

I grabbed the game, the 2.06 patch and the 2.06b patch. I cannot join any server cause of issues. I tried several times uninstalling and reinstalling. Just about to delete it for the final time.

tell me what issues. I have Vista ultimate and it works fine. Perhaps I can help?
Don't install the useless gamespy crud. You don't need it.

Oh and make sure you enable and use "Punkbuster" some servers will not let you on without it.

Running Windows Vista Premium. I get some error about gamex86.dll.

I think i'll pass on this come to think of it.

I am not using 2.60b. Never had an issue without it. Download the maps though:
http://www.fileplanet.com/89158/80000/fileinfo/Return-to-Castle-Wolfenstein-GOTY-Map-Pack


If I have to I will upload my whole game folder...you can run it from your PC. When I upgraded to Vista, I just copied that folder and it works fine...just pulled a shortcut to the desktop, but nothing was "registered" in Windows when I did. Check your firewall also. It may be restricting you.

If you don't install 2.06b you cannot play on a server running that version which all seem to be.

I have so lost my patience with this shit. I can play Crysis at full resolution but a 7 year old game is causing issues? Forget it.

Sorry Pete. Not my intention. Here is an alternate link. Perhaps the other link was missing essential files? Dunno?

http://www.download.com/Return-to-Castle-Wolfenstein-Enemy-Territory-full-install-/3000-7565_4-10243510.html

But Crysis is a wonderful game. If you want to hook up on CS, I will log on, and you can find me. Seems like the least I can do...let you kill me a few times. :)

Sergio it was a bitch but I got it to work with 2.60. I scrapped the 2.06b nonsense. Still runs a little weird in Vista so I may just play this on the XP laptop since the requirements are so low anyway.

So...do you run a server?

Whew! I bet that sucked indeed. I don't run a server, but these "guys" accidentally left a cable modem line open at my house even after I long ago canceled their service. I use DSL now, but that cable line is still active. And I do have several PC's and an actual server I can run from the house. But...I have a feeling they will catch on. But if there is enough interest, I may hook one up and run one.

What I would rather do though is hook up on an already established server. Rather than mentioning the names here, I will reply to where we will be playing via PM to anyone who wants to "fun and gun."

Or conversely, if any of you find a server you like, PM the name or IP and we can all join in.

Can somebody tell me what I'm missing. I installed the client and patch. The game loads but no servers are showing:headscratch: Do I need the GameSpy crap? Maybe there's a serverlist I'm missing:dunno:

No I don't recommend the GameSpy crud. I have not ever used it for this game.
Be sure on the drop down menu that you are playing "Internet" game, as opposed to LAN or IP. Check if your firewall is letting you out.

I basically created a player name, picked my options for resolution, sound, keyboard layout, a went online. There is a button that says "play online" and then right under it says "filter" and that is where you change it to say "Internet" and then refresh and see all the servers line up. You can sort by number of people, or ping. See if that helps. I know it's simple, but there can't be much more to it that that. Don't install the GameSpy crud though. It's trash imo.

Screw that "b" patch. I finally found success running this at 2.60 with a binary from a different site.

Are you trebor or something like that on CS?

You up to play right now? :) ET..

On CS I was "Bozo" ;)

What server?

----- is the name. It's in pink. Look for "Spork" :)
I'll be waiting. :)

EDIT: I shouldn't post someone's server publically. I will PM you guys. I just hopped on one that is not full and seems OK.
I have never played there, but this is for a test.

That server seems perfect as a starter. It's got "Bots" and they are easy kills. They are quite stupid..LOL. But you can practice aim, techniques, learn the classes (Soldier, Medic, Field Ops, or Covert Ops). In the short while I was there...(about an hour)...there was only one human opponent, and he was on my team. :) We should try this one sometime. Then move on to better "all human" servers.

HalfLife was the first computer game I bought back in 99. Played Team Fortress and Counterstrike ever since. I used to play BF 1942, Desert Combat and Desert Combat Extended(I was a Dev on this mod). Right now playing COD4

Cmmon! COD4 ?? Nothing beats a good match at LostVillage :lol: . What about Bulge on vanilla BF? Awe man I miss those, haha! Respawning at the mill as an engineer and ex-packin´the shit out them Panzers running up the hill hehehe.

True man I had a total blast playing Vanilla BF!! But once the Desert Combat mod was made and DCX, I stopped playing Vanilla. Loved the Apaches, and Bradleys etc.. COD4 for the 360 is the most realistic FPS i've played to date. My PC doesnt have a 1/4 the power of the 360.

LOL! So the 360 is the thing now I see. My 2003 PC is enough for still playing at 89.149.238.143:14567, HAHAHA! It´s a german server that only runs the Lostvillage map. There are always around 36 players in, so it´s fun.
