Can we get a games and competitions list soon please!? Then I'll have an idea whether or not I need to hunt down some new games...and if I do need some new games I don't have long to find them!

HL1, CS-1.6
CS-CZ
HL2, CS-Source
battlefield 1942, desert combat
Dawn of War

what else?
A software list (e.g. teamspeak?) would also be nice if there's anything we should be downloading prior to pitching up!

One thing missing from my lists is a good car racing game, either something fun like midtown madness 2 or motocross madness 2 (tag was excellent

), or smething serious with "realism" and the like? Dunno if these sorts of games get much playing time, but I think something relatively simple and arcadey would be nice so we don't all spend 3 hours trying not to crash into the walls...

I suspect that with the delay of a certain game we will rely on CS. CZ and DoD. I have yet to put my thinking hat on fully in this respect, but other suggestions are welcome.

Have you tried Red Orchestra? Free mod for UT2004.

Absolutely amazing team based second world war with superb maps.

Bring the diles along and we can install at LAN and post some links to the files needed please BB. Also we need links to the server files as we will need to build a server for it before the LAN unless it runs (like UT) a server from a player's own machine.

Which puts UT2004 on the list of games.

Indeed its free and i hope you like the look and feel of the interface. Sadako i know loved Wolfenstein but this expansion sees new classes and a rank structure so you are rewarded for your gameplay! I think a dmw server may also be a consideration for the admins but this may need to be quite large as the bigger games are more popular. There are also various mods and patches. I am currently using the 2.6 version and it has fixed many of the previous bugs. If this was to be an official lan game we would have to decide on wht patch we would use

Have you got DoD? Do it now if you aint

TeaLeaf · April 19, 2005, 10:20:43 AM

Folkjs - please remember to patch up as per the games in this thread before coming to the LAN.

If one of you is feeling right sweet then you can bring along any patch files ot share over the network to help those poor sould who forgot to patch it properly over the internet before arrival

A few people with patch files and the like would be a bonus... Someone (ahem) always forgets a driver disk or fails to patch up to the most current version...
