Title: dMw LAN V - Official Games
Post by: TeaLeaf on March 19, 2004, 09:01:53 PM
The Game Admins (Oldbloke, Gandalf-LordofJelly, Smite, Sadako, Smilodon & JAS) are proud to announce the final line up for the official games for dMw LAN V

[/b]
Being an official game means that there will be scheduled sessions for these games.  There will inevitably also be other games to play or try out during the weekend.

A note regarding CS1.6:  The Game Admins strongly recommend that people attend the LAN with a fully patched CS1.6 - ie patched through to Friday morning.  That way everyone will have the right verison.

A note regarding CS1.5:  Much as the Game Admins recognise Steam as the biggest borked bug fix ever, we strongly recommend that you attend the LAN with an installed CS1.5 (or the disks to do reinstall quickly) just in case Steam has one of its 'moments'.

Patches and bug fixes for other games will be at the LAN on CD if you have not already downloaded them.

My thanks to the Game Admins for the work they already have put in and the preparations they are now undertaking for the LAN.

dMw LAN V is shaping up to be a great one, if you're not booked in to attend then why not grab one of the last 5 places?

Download the full game(143mb) S1E and the 'F' patch. The Demo version is included. You'll have everything you need, plus if you get hooked  :rolleyes:  it's just a matter of paying your measly £12

Get it here (http://lfs.racesimcentral.com/)

Halo is now called UT2k4 - with the vehicles included.  Trust me.

Yep we gave Halo a good run for its money last time. UT2004 plays as a deathmatch frag fest and a team based Halo alternative.

Last LAN we completely ignored two official games (Chrome and Chaser) which IMHO  suggests that more than four games is to much for two days.

Is UT2004 easy on the hardware? or is it exactly like halo but runs half as fast?   That would be the only gripe I have  if the latter is true.

It's soooo cheap on play.com you'd be a loony not to.  Â£17.99 for the 6 CD game but £24.99 for the DVD game.

I finally installed this today and love it.... it is all i expected from UT2003 TBH.

For the people who loved Morpheus on the first UT Morpheus3 is just as good.

Some stunning maps.

I have a GF4 and get nothing below 50 FPS on some maps get upto 120.

1 on 1 soccer?  That may be a less than enthralling spectator sport you & Sheepy got there Radders :lol:

But I believe you refer to UT2k3 and the football mod (Deathball) - I am sure it will pop up at some point......

Why have BV and COD - aren't they a bit the same?  I know it's too late now but for future ref wouldn't it be better to have something a bit different?  Just my two cents.....

I agree with Smilo - less is most definitely more :)

We will see what happens. Halo rocked the last LAN so you should look at the list as a suggestion rather than a strict rule.
