[[TC] Loki]

Warhammer 40,000 Dawn of War: Winter Assault, 2 v 2, Annialation, default maps only.

[Snooky]

I'm defiantly up for some Battlefield 2 ?x?,
Swat 4 5x5,
Dawn of War:Winter Assault ?x?
COD:UO 5x5
and mario kart again for the novelty comp.

[Nipples]

I'd go some Battlefield 2
Swat 4 5v5
COD UO 5v5

Haven't actually played it yet, but it'd be nice to Have DoW:WA as a comp... RTS gives a change of pace

[Joshu]

W40K-WA 2v2(v2v2) tournament, default rules. (any win, regular start - only semis and final are true 2v2 if there's more than 8 teams)

Super Smash Bros (orig or melee) 2v2.

COD:UO 5v5 (CTF or camp the radio, none of this crap "destroy bunkers" bullshit)

Typing of the Dead level 4 or 5 twoplayer mode faceoff tournament, semis and final on the bigscreen.

[dominatrix]

SWAT4
DoW:WA
COD:UO (CTF)
Q3
GTA2 DM :P

but, SSB / M would be awesome!

[Bignick]

whens f.e.a.r come out?

i suggest we play that and nfsu2;)

[dominatrix]

OMFG I JUST FOUND THIS!
According to #Quake4 on ETG :: click :: Quake 4 is meant to be released October 13th 2005, Special Edition (which includes Quake 2 and the two mission packs) being made available on the 18th

E: I was so excited by this i forgot to add we should play it :P

[kyzen]

Yeah guys, hanging out to see what quake 4 will be like, better be the awesome!

[Peter]

oh yeah, it will be super hot. well i really hope i mean look at Quake 2 and 3!

but that would mean we would have to forget about what happened with Doom 3 :dead

[Dave]

Stronghold 2, for those who can handle a proper thrashing, we are at a private school. Thrashings are the character building stuff

[*NoN*Da]rY*]

Quake 2 is the best religion ever :D

[TeamZephyr]

CODUO, CTF
SWAT4

[Bignick]

FEAR comes out on the 18th, i played the demo, and its a lot like (IMO) half life 2 (without the crazy weapons).
COD:UO, CTF
SWAT 4
Q3 (or 4 depending on it being as good)

battlefield 2 is shit...

and a tiger woods golf game for novelty comp :D.



Team Huge Wangs is out for revenge, and we challenge the Admens to a rematch (without the_balance, hes too good).

[*NoN*Da]rY*]

COD: UO is old, tired and boring.... more like CS these days :P

[<3 Ropey]

Quake 3
Quake 4
COD:UO CTF
Starcraft BroodWar
mabey some swat 4

[Hammo]

COD: UO
F.E.A.R would be nice
and some BF2

[mudgie]

Rag Doll Kung Fu - novelty!
CoD 2
DoD? Got anything against that? :P

Quake 4, from the vids, looks like the arcade action we love and know, with tasty graphics. I hope it's out soooooon.

[Uncle Bob]

even though i havent been to a lanx yet i say we play bf2:)

[SPOT]

bf2 will more than likely make the cut.
since i was actually able to play it last lan!!
man that is a fun ass game.

rag doll kung foo would be cool, crazy ass game.

[Aphotic]

FEAR multi player demo is good, if we cant get us a... *TISK TISK* full version copy first.... COD 2 would pwn... if its out ... BLITZKRIEG 2!!! come on its the shit... and no qauke.. just for once...

[SPOT]

seems alot of you guys are up for RTS games. hmmm

**MORE TO COME**

[mudgie]

and no qauke.. just for once...
I petition we ban this guy from all VicLAN events ;)

[Peter]

/second ;)

yay 700posts!

[Solace]

i am actually getting a bit sick of the quoke as well

[Bladia]

Don't care if I get an ass kicking for this, But I must admit Have never played any of the Quakes, absolutly sick of the whole run around and shoot people thing, especially when your playing against brainless AI

[dominatrix]

thats why you go to lans, or didnt you pick that?

[<3 Ropey]

you go there and pwn its so much more fun when its a good game espically CTF

[Aphotic]

for a second... i thought i had an ally... but then... i realised... he cant spell qauke... *sigh*
and yeah i think RTS would be good, but it would be slow and we'd have to wait for matches to end... blitzkrieg multiplayer demo... a battle can take 10 minutes or 2 hours... so eh...

[Bignick]

i dont think ive ever played a multiplayer game where you cant put a time limit on...

[SPOT]

yeah the prob with rts' is you can't put a time limit on it,
cause if the time ends who is the winner??
makes it unfair to run it like that.

[Bladia]

Make a rule that if the Time runs out and no winner has been decided both players forfeit, that way they will go with the quick attack instead of the build up defenses and wait for an attack. Be harsh with them. give no options, you make sure you win or your gone. no win by default, no wins by wonder, Full 100% conquer. if time runs out and only 98% win, Thats a loss, no next round for you.

[Joshu]

but then... i realised... he cant spell qauke...
"Quake".

After a VERY lengthy session of playing it last night 1v1, I would like to suggest "The Specialists" (halflife mod) as a competition.

It's got a VERY high learning curve, but it's very awesome. Nipples and I played to 300 frags to 250 frags. Fuck me it's awesome.

[SilverCheetah]

Make a rule that if the Time runs out and no winner has been decided both players forfeit, that way they will go with the quick attack instead of the build up defenses and wait for an attack. Be harsh with them. give no options, you make sure you win or your gone. no win by default, no wins by wonder, Full 100% conquer. if time runs out and only 98% win, Thats a loss, no next round for you.

most games have a point system, based on resources and kills and shit like that, that would probably work as well, highest score at end of designated time wins

[Joshu]

That'd be stupid - just cause I upgrade listening posts and plasma generators to level 2 generation 10 seconds after my opponent does it, should that mean I'm the worse player?

IMO there should be time limits such as 20 minutes regular play, then an admin checks to see if someone's on the permanent defensive at their home base. If they are then the pushing player wins by default; but if they're contesting middle ground then there should be 5 minutes of "if you don't attack you lose", and then going by "most ground controlled" (ie, who's physically holding the center chokepoint), and THEN... well hopefully there won't be a THEN.

Might have to play the competition points-based. 5 points to win, 1 point to lose, 3 points apiece to tie or something.

[dominatrix]

I concure with joshu's suggestion of "the specialists"

IT FUCKING RULES! for you all who dont know, its a 'the matrix' mod for the original half life. Its easy to pick up, takes a while to master ;)

[*NoN*Da]rY*]

FEAR is average Multiplay gameplay and COD:2 is actualy very lame.... i mean the Tommygun has 20 rounds..... 20!!!!!

[mudgie]

rY*']i mean the Tommygun has 20 rounds..... 20!!!!!
Doesn't the real deal have like 100?!

[SPOT]

depends if its a drum mag or not.

k from the looks of it these are the comps for X18.

NOVELTY -
Super Smash Bros Melee 2v2 Double Elimination.

TEAM COMPS -
CoD - BASE ASSAULT maybe ( for something different)
Quake 4 - Prolly just TDM (if out)
Battlefield 2 - try aim for 10 v 10

QUAKE 3 SUNDAY -
Quake 3 - 5v5 CTF

its a bit of a prick this LAN, so many new games coming out.
not going to play em straight away cause they may not work or be crap.
and i decided even tho everyone wants DOWWA, it would throw the times out too far.

*but all you RTS fans stay tuned for some big (RTS related) news in the near future ;)

[[TC] Loki]

Sweet line up there :)

[SPOT]

next lan will be better once all the christmas games are out and we can update the line up.
and hopefully have the bugs worked out.
and have the special RTS news made public!!

[Bignick]

IMO i dont think 2 quakes should be played. yes, its a fantastic series, but we need a bit more variety.

[SPOT]

yeah it is all dependant if it comes out or not.
we may play both this lan and if q4 is the goods,
it may replace q3 on sundays.

[<3 Ropey]

i say both if Q4 is teh good

[*NoN*Da]rY*]

we could always kill off COD

[Joshu]

rY*']we could always kill off COD
Cause like totally noone plays that at all.

JUST JOKING YOU GUYS I STILL PLAY COD IT IS A FUCKING FANTASTIC GAME

[*NoN*Da]rY*]
