As mouse control systems go, Freelancer's one is good in an arcade sense.

 

[kingcomrade]

Freelancer was designed to be played with a mouse.

 

[Fez]

I think I remember it being mentioned that it was one of their early design decisions too, rather than a hasty choice near the end to rip out and change the control system.

Hi guys.

I'm a long time lurker on this truly Refreshing forum.

Anyway, wouldn't mind some MP action.

I installed Hamachi, and, um, to play with you guys via it, do the games have to be licensed versions?

I have some originals , but not all...

So I'm up for:

AvP 2
(love this one)

Dawn of War + WA (+mods: Steel legion,
DoW XP, Dowpro, Dawn of Warhammer)
(love this one to bits)

Warcraft 3: TFT
I saw some poster inviting playas for Warcraft 3,
but whats the network name and password?

Worms : World Party
(can't get Armageddon to run in XP)

Saay, what ABOUT Worms?
A massive wormsy carnage, perchance?

Company of Heroes

Homeworld

Homeworld : Cataclysm
(can't find HW 2 disk)

System shock 2

Close combat III & V

CS : Condition Zero 1.6

UT : GotY edition

UT 2004


And let me see what all other stuff I can dig out.

 

[Surgey]

I suggested Worms 2 in #fallout. I'll see if I can acquire it and post it on RapidShare, provided I can get it under 100 meg chunks.

 

[Selenti]

Age of Wonders plz.

 

[Dementia Praecox]

Age of Wonders plz.

You make the requsts in #Fallout, not here. Now get that ass of yours moving.

 

[Surgey]

Age of Wonders plz.

I second that motion.

 

[Surgey]

Okay, here's download link to Worms 2, in case you feel like playing it. It's in 3 separate files, so you'll need to put them all in the same directory before extracting and mounting the ISO.

First Part
Second Part
Last Part

EDIT: For those of you who care, I'm working on uploading Worms Armageddon. This is a fun multiplayer game and I suggest we play it.

 

[Jasede]

Together with Worms 2 / Armageddon, I'd also like to recommend Diablo 1 for Codex coop play. I've never tried it with 1 but I know Diablo 2 coop could be entertaining with the right people.

 

[Elwro]

Diablo 1 is entertaining in coop... unless you play the fighter. I played it via LAN about 8 years ago, those were the times... I wonder if it'd work with Hamachi or sth.

 

[kingcomrade]

I have Diablo 1 as well. We tried Diablo 2 but it was pretty boring. Diablo 1, however, is a lot more fun for multiplayer play.

 

[Surgey]

I'm up for Diablo 1. I have it, but it has no voice or music. :\

Also, I'm working on uploading Worms Armageddon as I type.

 

[kingcomrade]

DON'T UPDATE HAMACHI
Retard Dark Underlord was lagging us and urged us all to update Hamachi. Lo and behold we could no longer see games over Hamachi. So don't update it!

 

[whatusername]

the banana network is always full. Is there any other way to get in?

 

[Nicolai]

We abandoned the banana network in, uh.. February, was it?

Hop on kingcomrade's kool klub instead, the password is either kampfkreuzerausweichmanoeverdrehung or honourblade.

Our base is #fallout @ GameSurge

 

[kingcomrade]

Don't just give out the password to my elite club!

 

[Surgey]

Doom is fun.

We just finished the Hell Revealed WAD pack, which was supposedly very hard. I don't understand where people got that-

OH JESUS CHRIST.

SEVEN. CYBER. DEMONS.

AROUND. ONE. ELEVATOR.

Jasede blows his plasma load.

KC goes running and gunning while I survey the carnage we have wrought.

 

[kingcomrade]

Those screenshots are terrible.

By the way, you can make your status bar stretch across the whole bottom of the screen. It's under the options menu.

 

[Surgey]

It's hard to get good screenshots in Doom with the key so far from my movement, not to mention for some reason the screenshot key lags when the server lags, strangely enough. I don't see you posting any, either.

Also, I know I can stretch it, but I made it not because I like how much I can see without it stretched, and if I turn it to the non-status bar version, it doesn't give enough information, like how much ammo in guns I'm not wielding.

 

[Elwro]

Grr. My lag sucks. I'll have to try sometime with KC hosting the game.

 

[kingcomrade]

I'm not posting screenshots therefore yours don't suck?

 

[whatusername]

Anyone here fancy a game of Rise of Nations?

 

[Surgey]

I actually suggested that in #fallout. It was met with mild enthusiasm, such as "Rise of Nations sucks." and "Never played it." I'll see if I can get a er... version... of it, or I'll see if I can get people to play the demo. I personally like the game.

 

[sabishii]

Is that multiplayer Oblivion mod done yet? We could play that!

Kidding, of course. But aren't there any Codex-top-ten games to play multiplayer? 6-person Baldur's Gate?
