And no love for the DOSBox games like Wolf 3D in Gameplay Stats? Maybe id didn't do anything to those executables after all.

I snagged the whole id collection thing so I'd be down for some Quake 3 deathmatch/CTF if anyone else is interested.
I guess Im the only one playing Warsow here. A fun freeware fat paced Q3/UT online fps with a amazing instagib ctf mode. Skill moves ranging from bunnyhop to walljumps and rampglides. Pure awesomeness..
This will cater the Q3 and UT fans, while it gives the opportunity for everyone to join ( freeware = download & play ). For most of the events are restricted due to the nature of the commercial games.
Currently Im only able to participate in the CS:S events, whereas the Trackmania Event was - as far as I heard - supposed to be TM:United only ( Nations could have been a better choice, for it is free.. and equally awesome ).
Well; this post probably wont help one small bit, but hey.. a junior can dream... :lol

Well, I tried to pick a time that wasn't too late for Eastern (9PM) yet still gives West coast folks time to get off from work and relax and whatnot instead having to rush home to be able dork around with games.

I'm glad it's at those times too.
(I'm usually 30 - 60 mins late anyways...)

Once again, VaLVe shows that they're a force to be reckoned with in this industry. 1st, they make Half-Life 1. With that game & it's subsequent add-ons/mods, they helped redefine the industry and the genres involved. Then, they set the bar again with the whole digital distribution model with the Steam system. Later, they released Half-Life 2 and the cycle has repeated itself.....again...... Now, they've got their finger on the pulse on "What's Next" in terms of how we'll play our games. Other companies have attempted it (or parts), but never with the overall success that I'm sure VaLVe will have with Steam Communities. Any doubters can take the door ----------------------------> that way!

It does? I can't find it in Steam even after clicking the links from the browser. Where does it show up in Steam?
I have an account and a page. Is that all I need to be in? Is there something else?

Steam > File > Settings > Account tab > "Beta Participation" > Make sure it says "Steam Community" if it doesnt then select it
Big main steam window > Community > It should have your steamID page listed or maybe neogaf > Under the groups section you will see Neogaf. under the gaf icon you will see some information, X chatting / X playing a game / X online.
Click on the X chatting and you should get the chat window.
All of that is done within the steam client.

I joined up with the group. I really like the whole interface of it, the only problem I see currently is the lack of a search function. Though you can see in the corners that it says it's coming so I guess thats fine. The website is a little slow for me as well, but that doesn't really bother me as much as other people.
You can expect me to be in the Friday Night Counter-Strike most every week. I love me some CSS.

Join the chatroom now, I'll invite you.1-D_FTW said:I take it nobody likes FEAR? Come on, multiplayer is free
EDIT: And how do you join the group? I was told you needed an invite while chatting. And others said no. But I'm definitely a guest when I enter. So I assume you do need an invite.

It seems Steam Community (BETA, I know) has issues with some regions, specifically Australia and anything in Africa - you physically cannot sign up for a SteamID, which locks you out of the Community functionality. There is a huge thread about it on the Steam forums so far, with no solution in sight yet.

The only real free multiplayer shooter worth playing is return to castle wolfenstein: enemy territories and you know it. By the way we should add that to the rotation if enough people will play.

Just so you guys know, I don't own DOD:S and as such, can not find a good server for yous. One of you should take the liberty of searching .

I was Mcgarnacle btw, forgot to mention.
The first server we tried had horrible lag, so we switched. That made things start out a bit slower. Sorry for any confusion.
Still seems like DOD:S is not as popular as I would have thought, so we definately have to try DOD next week and see how that goes.
I think we had about 8 or 9 people from GAF? Maybe a little more.
Good games when it started going though.
