What do you play when your not playing DF?
« on: December 01, 2008, 07:26:32 pm »

Topic.

What do I play? I play old RPG's, Ages of Empires 2 (i'm a fairly decent player actually), and Any number of FPS games, although they're on my Xbox.

I play Team fortress 2, Gmod, and I've recently got back into playing Morrowind.

I have been playing Rune Ractory recently but I'm getting bored of that. So mostly just DF. I would play other games such as TF2 or C&C 3 online but my connection is really bad (256Kilobits per second down 128Kilobits per second up). Stupid New Zealand and their stupid expensive plans.

I am also in a group of 7 friends that have fortnightly LAN gatherings. There I mostly play DOTA, C&C3, TF2 and Co-op Rainbow 6:Rouge spear. We have a schedule of what we play determined by who has what. So quite often I will have to sit out while they play Rainbow six Vegas and CoD4 as my PC won't run them.

I've heard your Anti-dota speech before. But I just find it's an enjoyable game to play with friends you know.

I've heard your Anti-dota speech before. But I just find it's an enjoyable game to play with friends you know.

Me: "Hey guys what do you want to do?"
Friends: "Lets play Dota"
Me: "are you sure? We could play anything, heck I like Tower defenses"
Friends: "Lets Play Dota"
Me: "Look I even have other games we could play Unreal Tournament, Tribes, Counterstrike, Planetside, ANYTHING!!!"
Friends: "Well I guess we can play that Dragon ball Z map"
Me: "Ill put DOTA on"

Note: It isn't that the Dragon Ball Z map is horrible (even though it really is...) it is that not only is it horrifically unbalanced on its own but my friends always love to make sure that there is sufficiantly less villains then heros (and also to make sure there is always Goku and Vegeta)

Frankly DOTA is too popular for its own good...

I never played the Dragonball Z map, but DotA is so competitive that even if you wanted to start(I can't see why you would want to, it's not that much fun), unless you have friends who are already "in", people will literally RM because you die.

It's great fun.  Join a game, pretend to be epic, and just screw everything up when you join.  Or leave during the countdown.  Good stuff.

Fixed that for you.  Thank God I never got into it.

I've been on a DF funk for a little while, and I've been playing a medley of strategy games in the meantime.  Civ 4, Alpha Centauri, Master of Magic (which I suck at) and a couple other games I then remember why I stopped playing.  Got Doom 3 and Half-Life 2 not long ago, but I'm already burned out on them.  Started playing Liberal Crime Squad again after skipping a bunch of Jonathan's updates.

Played the new Ikiki game if anyone knows what I'm talking about. Teppomanto. Unfortunately, he didn't finish this one, but it feels like a mix of Teppodon and Nikujin.
Other than that, I've been playing Morrowind, but I'm just fresh out of my little DF funk, thanks to a GCS attack reminding me of what's awsome. Now I'm about to try the new Elder Scrolls mod, followed by Legendary Lands.

I've been playing a lot of Nethack, Dawn of War, and Left 4 Dead.  I haven't played DF in quite a while, and probably won't until the new update comes out.

I've still been playing DF, recently got into Cave Story, rougelikes, many many rougelikes, and as far as console/comercial games go, well... HARHARHAR!

I've barely got enough money as it is now! Gaming is a very expensive hobby.

I've found my copy of Medieval 2. And then theres any number of the Xbox games I have. Counter Strike is pretty good, but I haven't even played in years, and I don't expect to ever get near Steam again.

Mostly, RTW, ME2, DoW: DC, and Oblivion. Not so much Oblivion.

A good standby that I consistently play and have been for years now is Warning Forever.  It's about as far away from DF-type games as you can possibly get.  If only somebody would make a Fraxy Forever mod that made the bosses for that game evolve each round, I'd play that.

A couple weeks ago I played Fallout 3 pretty consistently, and recently one of my buddies got the Painkiller Triple Pack for his birthday, but because he's all the time playing World of Warcraft, he never plays it, so I'm playing it instead.  It really is a better sequel to Doom 1 and 2 then Doom 3 was.

I masterbate over DF. All day. Other than that, TF2, L4d, red alert 3 and Alpha centuri.
