My night started off with my friend and I wanting to rent Resevior Dogs on DVD. Like most things, Blockbuster doesn't have it at the store. Such garbage. They call two other stores nearby and they don't even carry Resevoir Dogs on DVD. How in the hell does 3 blockbusters not carry Resevior Dog? Its bad enough that they have to carry so much soft porn at blockbuster, you think they could save some shelf space for decent movies.

I didn't feel like renting anything else so we went to my place to game online. He wanted to play Battlefield Vietnam. It is not a bad game at all except its sucks. I hate that freakin game so much I may wake up one night and microwave its CD's. Between the connection problems detected, the bugs and the balancing issues, there is no way to enjoy the game. Unless you enjoy getting Helo raped.

My friend quits out of BF:V because he is disgusted with it. He wants to play Far Cry on multiplayer. I've never played Far Cry on multiplayer, but I heard it sucks. I decide to be open minded and we load up Far Cry. Apparently, you have to register with a user name and an email address. Not so bad, except every user name on the planet is taken. Its like trying to find an aol screen name except worse. I finally come up with some retarded user name.

Yay

Going back into the game and enter in my user name and password like a good little boy. Out of nowhere a screen pops up saying "please enter CD key." What the hell. Could they make that anymore convienent for you? I've only had the flippin game for a month now and it asks for my CD key when I decide to play multiplayer. What is really annoying is they didn't label the CD Key in the Far Cry box I bought. Hell, I don't even think my version of Far Cry came with a manual. For some reason, I kept the plastic that was used to shrink wrap the CD's which happened to have a sticker with some numbers on it.

I enter in the CD Key and get the lovely message "Ubisoft.com CDkey verification servers are down, please try again" I didn't feel like putting up with that crap or playing its boring ass single player, so I quit out of Far Cry.

Now I am pissed so I load up Halo. Good ole Halo, the game and the engine is crap, but the multiplayer is still there. After searching for a server, I found a nice CTF game on the blood gluch map. I let my friend play. He's playing. No wait, he is more like wandering around. It takes him like 5 minutes to get his first kill. Between getting fragged and TKed by the same a-hole, he is having a rough time. He is starting to get the hang of playing and he is having fun. But, this one idiot keeps on TKing everybody on the blue team. The admin joined the game and sent a message wanting to know who was doing all of the TKing. 30 seconds later, my friend gets kicked and banned from the server. He was just playing the game, hell he didn't even TK anybody. I hate TKers but I hate Admin who are too incompetent to ban the right person.

I'm like screw it, I quit out of halo and we watch TV. At least TV hasn't done anything to piss me off recently.


Grrrr.... :flame:
 
I share your sentiments. My friend got banned for saying "woopsie daisies" on a CS server earlier tonight.. true story, too :)

I'll just paste my IM I had with another friend who I told the story to..

Shuz3r: My friend and I were on this server
Shuz3r: And, they were like, uber uptight
CHARK3N: rofl
Shuz3r: swear words get you banned
Shuz3r: SO!
Shuz3r: Anyway
CHARK3N: i was just playing

Shuz3r: and.. lol
Shuz3r: a few minutes later
Shuz3r: I die, and then my friend does

Play HL mods, never let you down, and Halo on the PC blows, so you deserved that. And the fact you didn't already own Resevoir Dogs means that you double deserve all that because that is a great movie that all should see.
 
Hehe :D

Yeah i just don't bother with anything anymore except Valve games on steam and Diablo2/Starcraft on Battle.net. BF1942 and it's bad netcode infested clones are just a waste of my precious time. Far Cry doesn't really deserve a mention but i'll say it anyway, Far Cry....there.

Steam just makes playing online hassle free. Kickass server browser, so quick and simple to swap between playing CS, Dod and NS. Lovely netcode ahh it's all such a breeze :)
 
I have to agree. Steam is a blessing. It runs without a hitch, games load quickly, servers are easy to find.

SC/BW are great too. Games load quick, easy to find games, always fun.

Ahh, yes, Blizzard and VALVe.. my two favorite developers :)
 
Don't get me started on Counterstrike TK'ers, and America's Army TK'ers. In AA however, there IS a way to get back at the TK'ers !

The thing is, when playing a online FPS, if you TK someone else, you get banned or worse, because the admins are incompetent. HOWEVER, in America's Army, there is a small way to get back at them. Simply flash-bang them, and say "Sorry, you got in the way" the nicest way you can . It only deducts 5 ROE from you, not that much when you get to get back at the bugger who was gunning your team down ! :p

I always loved the idea of Steam. That is, AFTER beta 1.. that thing was evil..
/me shudders while he remembers playing CS 1.4b on Steam beta 1
 
Do you guys like the steam interface? To me it looks like somebody beat steam with an ugly stick. It's hideous.
 
I actually like it. The color scheme is a bit whacky, but it's better than any custom skins I've tried using for it
 
Team-Killing or Team-Kill. Usually when somebody gets in your firing line, and gets themselves shot. The only way this can be stopped is by practising, so you know automatically where everyone on your team is. Of course, this only works in clans .......
 
wow blah.. u had a tough night.. :|
yeah hackers, tk'ers and stupid admins piss me off as well.. i think some pple's iq's drop as soon as they start playing MP
its a shame..

edit: Brian tk'ing means when friendly fire is on and u have a member on ur team killing u/whole team.. yeah it ain't fun.
 
the trick to online games is to find a server that has a good mix of: good ping, mature players and good admins ...I was an admin in my clan server for almost 2 years and it's sometimes hard to police the server without pissing someone off

blahblahblah, just look for a good server and put it in your favourites...or get All Seeing Eye ...it does a lot of the searching for you
 
i just went to teh server that shuzer talked about earlier in the thread, when i got killed i said "whoopsie daisy"........no response....dang it!
 
I got kicked recently from a friendly game of Instagib CTF in Ut2k4 becuase my Ping was in the 300's. What a pathetic excuse, there where 6 players and I was third in total frags... You evil Admins.

You're gonna need to try harder. Double check to make sure it's not insulting the poor flower. Make fun of candybars! Bash the AWP! lol
 
Guys just start a team/clan and it'll be way better if you scrim with just like 5 v 5 . Its so much better and nicer not having to worry about getting tk'ed, and fun practicing strats.
 
Ffs when will people learn that people with high pings dont effect other players :\.

-Diablo 2 a game you can rely on apart from those damn pkers! ;(
-Op4 multiplayer! Where the cool members of hl2.net hang out :O.

You should had learnt by now that the cs community sucks. Play a different game.

It depends on the game. In direct TCP/IP games, it does matter. IE. playing SC with someone with a high ping lags the whole entire game. Simply because everything has to be in sync.

That's why I prefer CZ. The CZ community seems alot nicer than the CS community.. simply because they're not stuck up little brats who think VALVe owes them everything on a silver platter (hey, they bought CZ.. they have to be better than most of the players on 1.6 :)).
 
wow shuzer with that statement alone you've just seriously made me want to go out and get cz, if the community is better....
 
I've never played counterstrike cuz the internet cafe I used to go was full of 13 year olds playing CS and I kinda lost interest after watching them play. I did jump right into DoD cuz for some reason people actually want to play together as a team
 
I know how you feel Blahblahblah, sometimes I feel the same: load up Vietnam, get Tk'ed, get helo raped, get kicked by PB...
 
whoa whoa you thought Far Cry was a bitch to get working...try Raven Shield. i can't describe it accurately, you just have to live through it yourself.
 
I like bf vietnam. its kinda fun when you are on the rapeing team =D
 
1) reservoir dogs's a fantastic film
2)there the only games you have? :|
3)play cs/ ut2k4/ rtcw/ sof2 for MP goodness
4)i think a visit to Soldiers Of Fire 1.6 is in order :naughty:




metallica - fade to black
 
That's a tough night.

Always good to know a few good servers for your games. I have always played at my clan's servers (CS,DoD,NS,BFV) and I don't remember the last time I saw a hacker or the last time a smacktard got to stay.
 
I really hate multiplayer games at times.

One day I was playing AvP2 online and we were playing a round of survivor I think it was. So in the end it was me and this other guy on the marines that were still alive. We were staying together then boom. The jackass killed me on purpose so he could be the survivor and win. He's laughing and going "LOL YAY I WIN!!!". So I get pretty pissed off, next round comes and I just go searching for him and I find and kill him. He ended up being the admin and I got banned.....


Another time while playing AA on the pipeline stage I was on the attacker team. I opened a door a little way so that I could peek inside the main large room where the defender's start and see if I could take some guys out. Well here comes a jackass on my team that decides to open the door all the way and run back, I ended up being in plain view of about 3 enemies. I had pretty much no chance of surviving that one. I cannot wait til my honor is high and won't have to deal with the dumb noobs.

Battlefield 1942 is a prime example of multiplayer at its worst when you have to deal with jealous idiots. The ones that if they cannot get ahold of a plane then no one so they decide to destroy it. I always hated it when FF was on in BF1942

No it doesn't. Not only is it better than the XBox version, the multiplayer is some of the best PC FPS multiplayer currently out.

Anyway, those were crappy experiences sure, but at least you weren't playing Diablo 2, which has the worst community of any online game EVER. Well, it's tied with CS, but lately I haven't run into too many morons on CS.

Hehe they don't even need FF to grief on BF, they just ram jeeps into planes on the runway.
