Title: Multiplayer games
Post by: Luke on January 12, 2004, 09:00:47 PM

So who here actually bothers to play Online games anymore?


I just played a WONDERFUL game of Warcraft 3 where my whole team, who were obviously all under the age of 13, spent the entire time calling everyone "noob" instead of actually playing the game.


Seriously, I have a strong feeling Multiplayer games will never really catch on because of this exact kinda thing.


Just my thoughts.... seriously, who calls anybody a
"noob" anymore?

I play CoD online and I used to play medal of honor:AA all the time.  Aside from a little chatter most people just keep to themselves and play the game.  I really enjoy online games.

Oh and I\'ve never been called a noob on Call of Duty, but then again i don\'t suck ;)


NOOB

I\'ve been toying w/the idea of playing warcraft 3 again.  You got exp Luke?

I\'ve been splitting my time here recently between War of the Ring, Generals: Zero Hour and Age of Mythology.

The chatter isn\'t the problem with online games.  Cheating is the problem.  CoD, MOHAA, Spearhead, CS, AoM... you name it.  Wallhacks, trainers, etc... all will be the death of online games.   Almost everyone online PC game has rampant cheating going on.

I do play online, but only with people I know and it is fun.

I\'ve played a half dozen different games consistently over the years.. some great memories..

Right now I play RTCW:ET (http://www.enemy-territory.com). It\'s free, and the gameplay is excellent. (Q3 engine) Give it a shot if you like FPS\'s.

Rob, we should definatly play WC3 together again... and how is War of the Ring? I was thinking of getting it.


The only two online games I play at all is CS and Warcraft 3.

War of the Ring is pretty good.  It\'s like Warcraft 3 with some changes.  The only thing about it I don\'t like is that you can only choose between 2 sides.

I play Halo PC and CS online.  That\'s pretty much it for me.
