What are some good freeware games?

[Lucid]

Just totally bored out of my mind right now...
Looking for any games that are free.
Free MMORPG Betas(that don't require credit cards), FPSes, whatever.

I'm sure there's already been a thread on this but, I want this up to date.

Thanks :E

Was going to post a new thread on this- anyone know any fat space shoot'emups? Like, those side scrolling things where you buy new weapons and pwn people. I <3 them.

Stern, have you played True Combat Elite?

 

[Hectic Glenn]

Stern, have you played True Combat Elite?

I have, thats like Counter Strike but a million times better. So damn good, no crosshairs, so realistic. Havent played in quite some time now though, i forgot about it. I prefer it to the normal ET. True Combat really does own.

w00t! Didn't think many people here were interested in it.

I agree, much better than CS, free and much more realistic.


You'll have to join our server one evening for a game

Freespace 2

Followed the link in your sig, all the mirrors are down though. Anywhere else I can find this game? I remember playing it ages ago as well as Wing Commander or something when i got tired of it. Good times

not bad...not as good as astronest!

OH you meant REAL games....

1000ad isn't that bad

 

[ZoFreX]

N is good fun.. it's a flash based 2d platformer with full physics & ragdolling

Nexuiz is an interesting Quake-engine-based MP FPS, but graphics are more on par with Quake 3

It's an MMORPG and I think it's still in beta so you can play it for free. The graphics are pretty nice, kind of like chibi Kingdom Hearts.

I think I played the UT version a long time ago (or maybe it was vanilla rtcw) ..anyways ...I like ET because of the objectives and classes ...I'm not a big fan of CS ...although I have been meaning to try TC on ET but havent gotten around to it

Graphics are like KH or gameplay or both?

Eh, I'm guessing the game is basically a MMO version of Worms?

...I'll...check it out. :\

I've not even played KH, but it's not turn-based. You just walk around fighting monsters and leveling up.

Here's some screens:

You should man, I'm not a big fan of CS either, but I'm sure you'll find it's a lot better. The lack of cross hairs, and therefore having the weapons centered is a nice touch.

Man this sucks, I can't register I get this error on the registration site, When I click CONFIRM REGISTRATION...

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e14'

NO RECORD IN TABLE T1

/member/join_reg.asp, line 135

 

[StardogChampion]

Maybe just a temporary error, try again later or something. The website's dodgy since I think it's all translated from Korean and has some errors.

EDIT: The word on the Korean MMORPG street is that ROSE will be p2p (pay to play) soon with a monthly fee. The free beta period might be coming to an end in August.

It's not all bad news, since there is another Korean MMORPG that might be going public beta soon. It's called Seal Online - http://www.sealonline.co.jp

I haven't played it or anything, but it should play similarly to ROSE.

It's not that good tbh. The weapons don't feel meaty enough. Still impressive because it's free.

 

[Kebean PFC]

TC for ET? As in a true combat mod for RTCW:ET the free version. Or is TC stand alone? I used to love ET, infact it got me hooked on FPSs.

 

[mindless_moder]

yeah nexuiz isnt that good they tried really hard to be a quake clone but htey failed ...... the weapons and gameplay are just cheesey.

They just upgraded their graphics engine too so the screens are slightly outdated.
