Warcraft III + Expansion
Starcraft + Brood War Expansion
Diablo II + Expansion
Command and Conquer Red Alert 2 + Expansion
Half Life
Counter Strike
Ragnarok (I don't recommend this one, but it's worth looking at).

All these games (except HL) are excellent online

Vietcong, albeit old, is still full of online goodness (It's a FPS).

what are you talking about? i have CS...best FPS EVER!!!

Gimpy: not into SW games...but i'll check it out.

Null: beat NWN, the game is quite complicated to play online if you ask me, i tried :unsure:
SW: KoTOR, isn't it an xbox exclusive?
i completly forgot about UT 2003, i'll definetly be getting that...
BF 1942 i saw ppl playing it, doesnt look that good...but i'll see
HL 2 ill be getting 100% when it comes out
i have WC3, beat it single player...multiplayer is way to hard against comps, and way to boring against other players, just because you cant build a big army...

Yoda: i had morrowind for a while...that game is HUUUUUGE...too huge if you ask me...so thx, but no thx.

GM: not into any of those crappy sims games.

Bobcat: i have everything you mensioned except for ragnarok, i heard it blows, lol...but the only games i play online are SC and CS :p

PE: Vietcong is it? what is it, kinda like CS?

woudlnt matter either way cuz the game sucks.

was just pointing out the high population of cheaters in the game itself. :P

and whats the fun with playin with only people you know? what you want is to get the ppl you know all on your team and kill everyone else :p

not many hackers play anymore...i mean i've been playing for bout 3 years, and i've seen less then 10...so yeah...and version 1.6 is goin to be officially out soon, which somehow prevents hax or somthing, alot of ppl sais it doesn work in the beta version, so yeah...can't wait for that to come out...other then that its a very good game.

BTW, happydude666... hold out on getting Unreal Tournament 2003

Unreal Tournament 2004 comes out in November. it plays everything 2003 can. and can even join 2003 servers with ppl that only have 2003.
plus 2004 brings back the Assult mode and the Sniper rifle. and has the mode im wiating for Onslaught, wide scale outdoor combat with vehicles =)

and sorry but CS is hardly the best ever. there are many FPS better. single player wise. HL2 is going to be the best FPS ever. have to wait and see how its mutliplayer is.

Kinda, but better (in my opinion). However, since it's old and stuff, there are probably several way better first person shooters. *shrugs* I play it sometimes. Does the job.

i meant best MMOFPS (just made that abb. up:p)

and i have no doubt that HL2 will be the best single player fps when it comes out...along with CS: Condition Zero...:p

Would the person who gave me negative rep for this like to step forward and explain why?

I really don't care about my rep, but I want an explanation on this one, there's no reason for it.

Huh?

They have anti cheat programs that some servers require or you dont play. Punkbuster etc. You have to have these installed so they can scan ur hdd for cheat exe's that have been run.

CS is the best online FPS. Nothing comes close to it IMO. I used to be a UT playa, but now I left that behind for CS (and WC)

punkbuster helps it. but it doesnt get rid of it. not by a long shot. i know of punkbuster, cuz Quake3 started using it a while ago too. it does help tho.



And Happy.... how is CS a MMOFPS? i know i havnt played it in a long time but i remember like 32 players or around that in a server maybe?

lol, an MMOFPS would be quite useless since all you do is just kill ppl, not interact and stuff so whats the point of having a massive server to connect a 1000 ppl when you dont' interact at all, all you do is aim and shoot

Null
07-30-2003, 12:19 PM
they have MMOFPS games.

Tribes and PlanetSide, More so planetside because it has RPG aspects in that one and it has a monly cost. you collect and earn points.

Tribes lets over 100 ppl play in a server for a game. not sure how planetside works whether everyone plays in one main server or split off. but tons of people play together.

and usually in thoes times theres not much of a DM mode in em. so just killing people isnt the goal.

I borrowed Morrowind from a frend recently. While it is pretty, the gameplay is boring. Fetch quest after boring fetch quest. I'll pass, thank you.

*begins his 10 hits for today*

Hit me back too. :)

You can check it in the User CP. At the bottom it'll show your most recent hits, whether they were negative or positive, and the comment that the hitter left.

no it isnt. it'll be out on PC in the next month or so.


BF 1942 i saw ppl playing it, doesnt look that good...but i'll see


it got good ratings. its fun to fly around in the planes and stuff but i agree with you that its not that great. its not one i play regularly. i try it out every so often when im bored. thats about it.



(yes im a bit late on replies but im at work and bored.. plus i didnt notice you say them before so *shrug*)

Is WarCraft 3 a PC game must-have? I just networked my cable to the family PC so now I can start playing multiplayer PC games. I heard this is a good multiplayer. And if you have any multiplayer (free) recommendations of your own, by all means, suggest them to me.

Null
07-30-2003, 02:48 PM
most multiplayer games are free.

and most mentioned in this topic are good.

WarCraft 3 and the expansion pak Frozen Throne are VERY good once you take the time you learn to play them.

main game i play right now is Unreal Tournament 2003 (soon to be 2004)

2nd most i play is WC3 it has some fun little mods to play on it also that have nothing to do with the game. like Tower Defence and stuff.

I'm just curious as to why that pisses some one off.

Yes. Warcraft III +Expansion is excellent. You will learn things by playing the campaign (on Warcraft :ROC), that's what you should play first.

It's quite easy tho. Except when you challenge some little sh*t online who bloody rushes you at the moment that you are finishing off killing a few creeps, and your army is a bit weak, and they have a bigger army, but lower lvl hero coz they don't wanna creep nooooo, they wanna be a fking pest, and you have no def, then you forget to buy a TP, thinking that they won't rush you and you get mad and swear back at them and stuff argh!!!!!

I cant BELIEVE nobody's mentioned Deus Ex. Still one of the most under rated games in the world. Deus Ex is incredible both online and offline (graphics aren't great, though).

i've played deus ex...and i didn't like it, cause you have to manually save every 2 minutes just in case, and it's somewhat complicated...i will be looking into deus ex 2 though...is it out yet btw?
