Are we allowed to chat about other games in here? If so, anyone up for a round of Halo 2 on the new maps? If not, delete this topic.

what about Counter-Strike? I'm anytime with CS. What do you think is better: Halo2 or CS:CZ:steam

Halo 2 :D
CS has always driven me nuts. It's weird, a month ago people would have sold their soul to get new Halo 2 maps, but now that they are out no one seems to care much.

I've never really played Halo2, but it doesnt seem to be interesting much, just the wide range of weapons. CS on the other hand though, still not much, the one thing I like about it is that it has a lot of Mods for it. And that it carries the P90 Submachine Gun!!!!GO P90!!!!

I have Joint Ops: Typhoon Rising, when it first came out, i thought it was like 45 bucks, my bros came back from shopping and they had the game, then i was like :eek: :eek: , but it was only 20 bucks!!! I dont play it much anymore, but it was great. There is a downside though, the gameplay, its too wild, most of the time, you just join a battle, and do whatever you desire, just had to not let your base taken over.

And it was probably just me or not, but the whole gameplay had little teamwork, it wasnt coordinated and lead by someone, all you did, was go in, start shooting, die, respawn, and do it again.

Once in a while, you get a distress call from an allie, " Help!! MEdic!!" then you rush in. I plan to go back in and start a clan for teamwork.

I dunt no man, wait i guess cs got me crazy, It got me into psychotic weapons and such. But cs is like sometimes when someone jumps in front of me when its like 1v1 I like jump. In Halo2, I don't feel the suspense or jumpy feel.

Hm, maybe i'll try that some time. You guys should check out Soldier of Fortune 2. It's not new but the multiplayer mode Infiltration is great. I've played that game for more than a year and I still love it. The physics are great, the weapon damage is perfect, and most servers don't use the rocket launcher or grenade launcher. Also the graphics are pretty good considering it's age.

but right now i am preety tired of cs becuase it's preety much the same process over and over: just shooting, planting bomb, defuse bomb, save hostages and thats preety much. :(

SoF2 is definitely worth at least a try, and if you like any demos you find, you can get the full version on ebay for about $5. Or if you like consoles better you can get SoF2 for X-Box.

Ah id have to say im a Halo/Halo 2 addict, completed Halo 1 on all difficulty levels and Halo 2 on everything except legendary (im currently working on that one ;) ). In terms of computer games i love Neverwinter Nights, one of my favourite RPGs. Beebe out.

Gunbound
Halo
Halo 2

Eh, I never really liked Morrowind, first person RPGs just seem boring to me. I did like the freedom you had though.

tatsumaki is gonna be FP!?
well thats a little disconcerting. I have to agree that most FPRPG tend to be a little dull, espcially in the combat phase.

However if any of have played Bushido Blade 2 on PSX that had a really cool FP mode. Hopefully it will be like that.

FPS is cool
but wouldn't it be more bandwith use?

I'm in one of the best clans (we won 5000$ at a lan party in the UK yay us) of Europe (clan's called {BP}). Maybe I fragged you with my grenade launcher a few times ^^ About the teamwork bit. Get yourself in a clan with coordinated teams and attack patterns. You'll change about that opinion. I agree that in normal JO Multiplayer you can't really coordinate anything as a team, since everyone is running lose like headless chickens. However if you go in of these games with bout 4-10 other clanmembers and try to organise some attacks you'll see how easy you'll overcome the enemy ;)

Also CS:Source. I'd take any of you on. Any day, any time. Name the server ip and I'll be there ;)

Game List (of games I actually still play online):

Joint Ops: Typhoon Rising and Escalation.
Counterstrike: Source (gave up on 1.6)
Call of Duty and United Offensive add-on.
Lineage II.
Final Fantasy: XI Online (quiting soon though because of boredom with the gameplay)
Halo: Combat Evolved on both xbox and pc
Halo 2.

Why would first-person use more bandwidth?

And yes Sun! The Total War series is brutally awesome!

Presently I am playing City of Heroes (anyone else play) as there really is nothing else of Interest...

I did Guild Wars Beta for a long time (got a box at a LAN tournament last year) and found it terribly boring. Nice cinematics and some decent graphics...but overall it...well just was uninteresting.

I am primarilly an FPS player....nothing good out now tho.
In desperation I got HL2 and CSS....yay...HL2 is a pretty game and a very nice SP but I like online competition....HL2 deathmatch is a disaster area and you would have thought after all this time they could have made CS interesting....its not. The kill for money for better weapons in fundamentally flawed against the poor/average players. I am not one of these but that does not make it any less fair to them. If I can kill you easilly with a pistol or a small SMG for the money...I sure as hell can kill you with a much better weapon. This does not engourage improvement, nor is it some limiting factor in matches between excellent players. It is tho much better than CoD and several other of those "Lets add Realism people like that" disasters.

Hopefully S.T.A.L.K.E.R can save me...if they stop delaying it....

I play City of Heroes, but I cancelled my subscription so I could play with my old guild on FFXI, but FFXI is getting boring again, so I will probably go back to City of heroes. (FYI 32 Ice/Ice blaster on freedom)

Currently I'm Playing Guild Wars which is somewhat interesting but it's a little bit of a grind to get started and the Guild I am in isn't the greatest. I have played Half-Life and quite a few mods including Day of Defeat, Firearms, Count-Strike, Counter-Strike:Source, The Specialists, and Natural Selection. My favourites being Day of defeat, and Natural Selection.

My gaming experience goes back quite far, most often with online games and joining online groups to play with. I also am a big fan of pvp and group combat. I am a bigger fan of strategy style games rather than FPS games however, where thought and deployment make a difference as well as teamwork and communication.

I'm playing now, UltimaOnline :D (nice game indeed, I have my own server).
And then I play sometimes bf1942 Finnwars modification (very good mod).
Morrowind ofcourse, I made my own mod to it once, but never got to the release point of it. Got bored, when scripting started :D

Other games? well, I don't play so much, other than uo... :cool:
