Come on guys, lets make this bigger and better than the last one !!

Excellent, 8 pre-rego'd so far, page has been open for a little while now, good to see a couple more registers since this went up

Put me down for this event!!

I have just come back from a lan where it was not all Css, we played games such as Halo,Raven Shield,Call of Duty 2, and Postel2

The one that got me hooked was Raven Sheild one of tom clancys Counterterrorisim games
We Played Coop mode where 7 of us V a Horde of terrorists(AI) it was hard but very addictive 1 shot kills other than Css's 1/2 a darn clip kills
it maby took us 15-25 tryed to Complete a map , you normally have to either rescue the hostiges Exterminate the terrorists or both or more objectives like Recover Documents and such
the fact alone that you have to make a tactical plan or your just gonna get raped is great and makes the game addictive and i would agree to make this one a priority to play at v3.3
Ill try to get my hands on a dedicated server for this

From the looks of things it could be a go'er, I'll download a demo tonight(if there is one) and check it out.

i have the trial version on my game rig so we can distro it around the lan and play

Halo and CoD2 are excellent titles, and have reasonable requirements, I reckon they could be a real goer.
CoD2 was played at one of our LANs before, tight maps for the number of players, and arcade styled respawns. And Halo rocks in the same sense.

yeah, i long for the days when the wee hours of the morning where whiled away running each other over in halo

ive been wanting a decent death match for a while, and CoD2 can provide that..

I remember going into the gaming centre that DCA comptuers used to run, and playing a raven shield styled game (rainbox six?) they are kinda similar, the co-op play is great, but the technicalities of it can be a real prick to get over..

so long as we are striking up a games list, my personal prefs are:
Counter Strike - 1.6
CoD2
Halo
UT GOTY / Quake 3 (for some one flag CTF or something similar.. CTF is a long forgotten format of game play)

im sure we will fill in the gaps with CS:S / 1.6 as the night goes on, but we have plenty of time to take them all for a crank.. just need to get people setup first..

i say we actually schedule and request that people play CS 1.6 to start off (so we can have decent numbers and compete against the guys that use the office machines), whilst 1 or 2 people at a time get setup for the other games.

thoughts?

hmm, it's been way too long since I played a session in the Arena, let's get some quake happening.
I'll have my discs there, I'm sure I've got some CD-RWs around somewhere that could hurry setting up

I also downloaded a copy of Alien Swarm - UT2K4 Mod - Anyone want to give some multiplayer (co-op) a go?


btw - been a while, but Raven Shield is either the sequel to or second expansion pack for Rainbow Six.

I'm going to hold u to that game of quake. Quake 2 would be even better =P old school style.

Ive got quake 2 ill bring it if i remember

righto, quake it is

i used to go pretty well a few years back..

unfotuneately my quake 2 CD wont install on XP (rambles on about not for australia.. so i installed windows as american once.. still didnt work)

Yes

> Go to Control Panel
>Click on reginal settings
> Set to ENGLISH (Australian)
Reboot your pc Quake 2 will now install tAK

Bugger Regional settings, manually install it. Or rip it our and compile your own installer.

Hmm,, Yesh when i get around to it
