Icrontic PC Game Nights!

[Sledgehammer70]

We have a handful of gamers here at IC so with that I found that a sweet game night on the weekends would be great to have, to allow our IC community members to join up and get some good gaming in.

The idea is mainly pick a few top games and find a few other IC members who would like to play.

Games:
TF2 - Valve
BFME2 - EA Games
BF2 - EA Games
C&C3 - EA Games

and many others...


I have a personal TS server setup that anyone can connect to to allow us to chat and have a place to meet up, here is the information:

Team Speak
Server Name: Sledge's Game Server
Server IP: 70.86.15.34:8838
Server Password: no password
TS Download: get it here (http://www.bfmetournaments.com/ts2_client_rc2_2032.exe)

It is a 100 man server so no worries on the amount of people joining :)

Server is up 24/7 so feel free to shout out a night and game and hopefully members will confirm and game it up...

I will make sure and get UT2k4 install and patched up to date this weekend along with getting TS installed.

[SPIKE09]

how bad will the ping be for us brits?, I would love to play some games with you guys as you seem a lot less stupid than some/all of my current clan.

You've obviously never seen me play. :buck:

[Sledgehammer70]

Got some good CnC3 gaming with Crazy Joe

"poor guy didn't know what hit him"

Had about 60 pred's 20 Mammoth's and a few Chicken Walkers :)

[Shorty]

Sledge.. I am hoping to organise a UT2k4 US vs UK challenge. Would be cool if we could get your help in on this :)

[Sledgehammer70]

Sure thing :)

[GnomeWizardd]

[Vintage86]

Any possibility of setting up a BF2 server on hamachi?

[himank]

Sweet

[WuGgaRoO]

[jared]

So where are we on this? Now that it is summer and I am out of school I wouldn't mind spending more time playing games. Might as well be fraggin' some fellow IC members!

cheers :jared:

[Sledgehammer70]

I have some sweet CnC3 action going if anyone wants join in... I am on my TS server if you want to poke in and play a game.

Team Speak

Also if you don't have CnC3 yet and would like to get it, but don't want to drive to get it "lazy". You can buy & download it through EAlink (http://www.eagames.com/ealink)

[Sledgehammer70]

CnC3 action going on now until later tonight... I'm on TS :)

[airbornflght]

Im gonna come join. I haven't played CnC3 much so I'll be a total newb and probably get pwned pretty hard. If this damn update ever finishes. I just downloaded a patch when I got it. damn. Wonder if this is gonna break my no-dvd.

[Sledgehammer70]

still going at it :)

[airbornflght]

I quit a long time ago. My pos mouse made it near impossible to play.

[CB]

Sure, that's what they all say...

I know I've used that one, plenty...

[airbornflght]

no. I have a Logitech MX410 wireless laser mouse. Was supposed to be the biggest baddest thing on the block when it first came out. Well, its a complete pos. I really want to find a nice wireless mouse to replace it, but I can't find one with the same ammount of buttons that is wireless. I mainly work in photoshop and other cs apps, but I like to play games too. This mouse is horrible for both. Trust me, this thing stuttering and stalling while I'm trying to draw a selection or drag a brush just about pushes me over the edge.

[Sledgehammer70]

umm.. the MX410 is perfect for gaming along with just about any Logitech mouse... Unless you broke it, or the underneath is dirty...

I have a MX510, G5, G7, and a few others and they all game well :)

[airbornflght]

This thing stutters all the time. Maybe not ever 410 is bad but this thing is an utter pos at times. Maybe my computer is just slow, but on my system it doesn't cut the cake. I'm gonna hold onto it until I get my new system built, which is gonna be cutting edge stuff. So if it still stutters I'll blame the mouse. For now I don't know what the problem is. One thing, I will never go back to a corded mouse.

[Sledgehammer70]

Gaming all day today ! woot!!!

[GrayFox]

Gaming all day today ! woot!!!
Pft hurry up and auction off the card :p.

[checkmate]

Can we have a set schedule?

[jared]

HL2DM PLZ SIR

[CB]

I think the best way to organize MP is on the IRC channel.

[Whizzkid_amer]

Can't we setup a proper website for IC gamers where it'll have schedules and stuff? Oh and can we also setup a server on Warrock?

[jared]

That may be a good idea for the near future.

For now, the easiest way to know when we are online gaming it up is to idle in our IRC room, #icrontic.

Like you said, hopefully in the future we can come up with an organized way to game together.

We play a lot of HL2DM, BF2, CnC3 atm.

[Sledgehammer70]

Meh... I hardly use IRC :(

[d4rkst4r]

need to get counter strike on that list

[CB]

Meh... I hardly use IRC :(

Change is tough sometimes, but with the support of your friends, much is possible. :)

It's not change... just haven't been a huge IRC fan over the years. (sledge hides from Thrax)

a shared google calendar might work well here...

oh, and wife just left to go visit sister, won't be back until tomorrow afternoon. I'll be in BF2. :-)

[SPIKE09]

Sledge.. I am hoping to organise a UT2k4 US vs UK challenge. Would be cool if we could get your help in on this :) Any further forward with this I am slowly but surely working my way into Ut2K4 offline single player mode at the moment but I can kick bot ass :D

[Sledgehammer70]

PC Game Nights has switched it's focus and is now running Valves Team Fortress 2. If you have the game you can hit up any of us with steam logos below and add us as firends and join the game we are in. Usually a good 8 to 10 guys from IC are playing in the same server :)

If you have questions post them below...

[the_technocrat]

Just finished downloading last night. :-)

No-one wants to play BF2 any more! :-(

[QCH]

I do but OUR CLASS PROJECT takes too much time... RIGHT!!! ;)

[Sledgehammer70]

TT is paying his sister to do it for him...

[the_technocrat]

I do but OUR CLASS PROJECT takes too much time... RIGHT!!! ;)

I!! was willing to do all the work, but YOU guys wouldn't let me!
I SAID I would put the powerpoint and references together!
YOU guys never told me what to DO!
GTH and stop emailing me!!!one1!

(all excuses Q and I have gotten from other group members in our grad classes together)

[Sledgehammer70]

Don't forget to jump on TS (Team Speak) the info is in post #1 in this thread :)

[aznherb36]

what about counter- strike?

[Sledgehammer70]

We are all hooked on TF2... but CS is fun :) but is just dated

[=MBG= De Sniper]

You should do BF1942, Desert Combat Final, its still a great game, I love it my system Im running right now cant do the new games. but tomorrow evening my new system is supposed to be here.
