Post by: Snow Fox on May 17, 2001, 02:28:52 AM

Ground Control Forever,

this game has to be the most addictive online game ive played so far, and ive played quite a few.

I love the small but steady close community, the clan battles, the servers which althou sometimes crack up are on the hole very smoth even on a 56k.

the people are coooooool.

and the game rocks tooooooo, even after 7 months im stilll finding new ways to use vechiles. theres always someway to improve apon.

and theev started making loads more maps.

I played the free beta of shattered galaxies online for quite a while... It was a MMO mech game, pretty sweet...

Other than that, I wish I had a DC so I could play PSO, but, peh.

I bought Ground Control a while back, but I didn\'t play it much.  I started on the single player game, but I was frustrated by the way you couldn\'t control individual vehicles.  That would be fine if you always manage really huge forces, but when you only have fifteen vehicles, and you can only control them in three groups of five, it gets frustrating.  Even Homeworld, which often involves battles with very big forces, allows you control individual ships if you want to.

The multiplayer game was frustrating for a different reason...  The game slowed down and the framerate really dropped with 3-4 players in the same game.  Maybe they\'ve solved these technical problems with a patch?  How does it work now?

No now the GC servers are very fast, and most of the time just as smooth as single player

I used to play Starsiege Tribes and Unreal Tournament online a lot, but my all time favourite online game was [ well, not fully for online-purposes ] Diablo II. Altho\' the battle.net servers were bad and laggy, I played the game to death on internet.

I spent a good bunch of hours to that game.

And how did I curse when my Hardcores died ALWAYS on Nightmare -difficulty... I never got to h3ll before I got seriously bored.
