Looking from the votes to be something like this Will have 4 games broken up in to 3 hours each maybe more if ppl are really into one or the other. To start will have (2) FEAR Servers up CTF and TeamDM 16 player each. The BF's will most likely be grouped together as I can run BF42, BF2 and BF2142 all at the same time on my server (24 Player servers), same as I do on the NET 24/7. Flatout2 we will bust out around dinner time as a filler and HL2 DM for a bit later in the night. Quake4 I know is #6 and I have the server read to go, but that depends on who has it installed and ready to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarSpartan Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 (edited) Been playing AvP2 with friends lately - its soo much fun. Its actually a little bit scary and exciting at the same time. Especially when the aliens and preds are on the loose. You can get jumped from any direction - including the ceilings and walls ! - and the little motion radar blipping off you know somethings coming to eat ya, lol. Good stuff. You can play it classic fps style and just run the marines / corporates - or you can get crazy and run the aliens and preds. Getting hunted by aliens players as the marines i got to say is exciting, scary, and major fun. MW4 is great as well. Running the maps or arena is great fun - then everyone can trick out thier mechs with the armor and weapons loadouts they prefer. All around some fun stuff. Even after all this time the games rock.

Dragon Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Yeah, we keep talking about AvP2 but never get to it. I love playing as the alien and scaring the crap out of Nemesis which usually involved dropping down from the ceiling behind him. I played MW3 with a couple friends. We never played at the lans though as MW3 is kind of complicated to learn and I would easily wipe the floor with everyone for awhile. I didn't like MW4 at all. They took out some features that made the game what it was. I never forgave the series for that one and never touched MW4. Like PurSuit said we can't play everything at the lan, especially at the VFW lans. You could always fire it up but chances are you'd be playing by yourself . I'd be happy to mow your a$$ down in MW3 at one of the normal lans anytime though. Dragon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarSpartan Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 When I first went from MW3 to MW4 I actually hated it too. The pacing was different, and the way you drove the mechs was a little different. However I revisited it a little after that and found that once you gave the new stuff a chance it was quite good. It had become one of my favorites. Im playing it again now and its still hot I think if you try it now after being so long away from mw3 it might be enjoyable. From a single player perspective doing the arenas was as much fun as playing the campaign too. Multi you can fight on the normal maps or set it to play arena matches, good stuff. As for AvP2, definatley I love being the marine, i'll take on the aliens anytime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarSpartan Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 I dont know if there was a big difference in the game but it was MW4 Mercenaries Im playing and not the other 2 MW4 games (original & black knight i think). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always like playing as the Marine, the scare factor is alot higher for that class than the others, but well worth it. I was thinking that U & Me could go hunting for the Dragon & MindBender Aliens, whatcha think?! Other games that I would like to see make a future showing...

WarSpartan Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 Definately - Im game to go alien hunting for sure. I know another guy who will come fore sure as well for it. I also found a couple map packs for the game - so if we get bored with the originals at some point theres another 400 + maps to check out. Some different scenarios and all that jazz too if we want. NOLF 2 sounds great as well. I never did play Jedi KA or Desc 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Instead of walking around, U r flying around picking up stuff & fragging as U go. JKA is sweet, especially if U are a Star Wars fan. -- Nem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarSpartan Posted January 11, 2007 Share Posted January 11, 2007 http://aliensvspredator2.filefront.com/fil...s/Map_Packs;172 The good one is Ultimate Map Pack 2. Then you can pick up Updater 1.0 and 2.0 for even more maps. If anyone has interest in the MW4 Mercs game there is a site that has a huge mech pack which adds like 40 new mechs and a boatload of weapons and maps to the game. I just finished grabbing that one. One thing I like about revisiting oldie but goodie games is theres so much good stuff that people make for better games. Gotta love the community Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
