Welcome Party

[Thorgi Duke of Frisbee]

Since we've brought in a load of fresh new faces very recently, now might be the perfect time to schedule multiplayer sessions, so I worked up a short poll to test the waters and see if there's an interest in starting up events. If I missed anything, let me know.

[MasterDex]

Added in my info. I also have a PS3 but I don't spend much time playing it. That said, if there is a multiplayer session of a game that I own, I'd definitely be up for joining in.

[deanb]

My main PS3 games to play would be WipeOut HD which has usually gone down well and as it was one of the free "oops PSN was down a month" games most of us have it. (Though I also have MAG n Warhawk if folks are into that).

 

Though like MasterDex most of my gaming is on PC.

[tomatte127]

I have a large assortment of multiplayer games that I'd be up for playing, but most of them are on PC (and primarily Steam).

 

I'd totally be up for a Dark Souls party assuming we were all able to get each other in one person's game. Still need to beat the darn thing, but the catacombs scare me...

[Luftwaffles]

Perhaps LittleBigPlanet 2? I know it's free on PS+ right now and I'm not sure how many people can fit in a game, but it'd be great for just mucking around and such.

 

My other go-to is TF2, just because it's free and easy. Or perhaps Tribes Ascend, seeing as that's on Steam now.

[Nipah]

I'm always up for some Mass Effect 3 multiplayer, though I only have an XBox 360.

Dark Souls would be fun though you can only have 3 people playing co-op. Also, I think it's pretty hard to get everyone on the same game, haven't tried it in a while though.

 

For the catacombs, get the light spell and a divine club, that part is easy as hell if you have both of those things.

 

 

 

Wipeout HD has been pretty fun every time I've played it with others here, though we did run into some problems last time we tried playing together. There's also MGS Peace Walker though I don't know how many own it and on what platforms.

 

In terms of PC, I have the Dawn of War games, Space Marine and Magicka, I think multiplayer would be fun in those games though I've only played Magicka in local co-op.

[Livingtarget]

I have a lot of RTS's for PC Mass Effect multi for PC.

 

Have Battlefield and AC(That's Ace Combat) for 360.

In A New PC Gamer, I see Company of Heroes mentioned a few times, that's a great multiplayer RTS and it supports up to 8 players. I'd definitely be up for some of that.

 

I'm also playing Battlefield just about every evening on PC, usually with a good few other lads (2-3 squads) but I'd be up for getting together for a game with any of ye and since we no longer have a BF3 server to call home, you're welcome to join in on our pub stomping. We know a few good servers with some decent competition.

I've got a 16 player server that I'd be happy to volunteer if anyone wants a few games of TDM or really small conquest.

I love me some BF3. Assault all the way!

[Mal]

I'm not planning on getting the BF3 packs so I think I'm kind of out of luck with you folks?

Naaah. We can just run the server/find a server running vanilla BF3. There's plenty.

[Mal]

Good to know. It isn't as severe as Karkand, I am guessing then.

[Luftwaffles]

Well, tomatte and anyone else who's interested, join the PXOD platoon and we'll see if we can squad up and get a match together. I know Mal and Dex are already in, but I figure it's the best way to organize some sort of a game.

[Livingtarget]

I'm down for CoH, though I'm not that great at it.

[deanb]

I've not played in years but I'd be up for COH some point.

[Johnny]

I'd be grudgingly up for CoH.

 

I'd much rather prefer something awesome, like the new Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion. Though I don't think anyone here has that

Yet, Johnny. Has that yet.

 

I'll definitely be getting it when I can afford it. I want to get the expansions to the original as well. I'm hoping there'll be a good deal on Steam at some stage during the summer sale

[Chewblaha]

Whoever wants to play Nuts and Bolts with me, let me know. I'll be in that one corner over there.

[Livingtarget]

Ah, I also have Civ 5. If anyone cares.

[Chewblaha]

Dean, a few other people, and I tried to get a game going. I think we had 71 minutes of the game open and only four were actually in-game. Of those four minutes in game, only one was functional.

[Livingtarget]

Haha, it's a blast with IRL friends because then you can bitch at them for taking too long.
