Online Gaming

Post Reply New Topic

So, what all games does everyone play online. Me, I find myself spending a lot of time on Neopets again (haven't been on and really done anything for about, 2 years I think). I'm also getting back into the online MMO's as swirve.com; Utopia (join a kingdom, help make kingdom strong, very good gameplay) and Earth:2025 (battle for supremacy, turn-based style!). I also enjoy going a few rounds on Starcraft and Warcraft III; and also jumping on Call of Duty...once I get it working (I just re-installed it, and now whenever I try to load the game it'll cause my computer to reboot. I payed $20 for a game, NOT an easy way to restart my computer).

I play Neopets almost religiously. I used to spend a lot of time on Gaia too, but not so much anymore. Oh, and a long time ago, I was on Ultima Online, which was pretty cool.

Quake series, Everquest, Everquest 2, World of Warcraft, Eve Online, Civilization 4. And probably a few more. Right now nothing is holding my interest for long periods of time, but something will come along I'm sure.

On Xbox Live, I play Halo 2, Tony Hawk's American Wasteland, and on my DS, Mario Kart DS. And on my PC I play Trackmania Sunrise (bought it off eBay ).

Guild Wars (don't really play much anymore), World of Warcraft, and City of Villains.

I'm waiting for Vanguard: Saga of Heros and Age of Conan to come out, but I've lost interest in the current crop of MMO games. WoW was really fun but it got old when you hit 60, and Everquest 2 I could just not get used to (LOADING AREA... LOADING AREA... LOADING AREA, etc). I pretty much just log on UT2k4 for a few bouts of death matching.

I wish I could play online games but its porbably a good hting i can't. Im on dial up and that counts online game out.

Apparantly someone never found a good guild! I've been playing addictively for over a year, and have more than doubled my gameplay time since I hit 60. Sure, running UBRS/Strath/Scholo/DM can get boring quick, but its the 40 man instances that I love. I'm in a good guild filled with many friends (some of them real life) and we are always talking on teamspeak and doing stuff together. I end up sacrificing most of my weekends to do Molton Core runs and soon AQ or BWL. Level 60 is where the game starts!

Yeah, probably I know I really want to buy WoW, but I've got a full plate this semester and its probably best if I just give up serious gaming for the next few years while I try to get a job, a life, etc.

But last game I played online was HL2CTF and a bunch of other HL2 mods... Good times, reminded me of my days when I tried to play Quake 2 over a 56k connection and downloaded a bajillion different mods for it

I just linked this and I'll link it again:

Fast, addictive, and most of all, free. Go tot he game index, there are tons of great games! ((Some are a bit mature but the one I linked is not- it's really fun though, you smack penguins into a target. The penguins, oddly, don't seem to mind.))

I play a few games on and off. I get bored with things fast so I tend to rotate through them. I really love WoW but I am more a solo guy so as I level up I start getting more frustrated with my inability to do things without help. I have a 60 human mage that I haven't played since July and currently I have a level 45 (i think, can't remember exactly) troll mage but I haven't played him much in a couple months either. I played Guild Wars for a bit, but I find it rather dull.

Currently I'm back into Kingdom of Loathing, getting ready to ascend my primary char a second time. It has inspired me to think about writing my own HTML game based loosely on "Office Space"...

I know of one called Lineage, must be something like WoW. It costs money but you can play for free on "free servers" to "train" yourself for the official server.

Obviously some people will train forever and when they stop playing it will not be on the official server.

I'm on a Greek server, and I would never play there if I didn't know one person , offline. At least I think so.

I used to play Guild Wars and BF2 (as in this xmas break when I was on fast internet) sadly I cant anymore because the internet in the dorm rooms is slower then 56k

Only really play Ragnarok Online on private free servers myself.

I tried out EVEonline purely because im deprived of a new elite style game

I went for one of these 14 day trials that were being advertised and got a key code for it. I enjoyed the game but i straight away got the impression from the way the game system worked that you could spend many hours aquiring wealth and putting alot of effort into building a ship only to be killed in a low security secors by being ganged up on and WHAM you loose several days/hours of investment in one go.

I felt it was very much a work in progress game. But no way near as bad as SWG (well they effectively messed up that one by removing what made it unique from everquest 2)

Poker.

I just cannot be arsed with any other online games.
I used to play chess online a lot.
