Magena Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I'm trying to figure out some good multiplayer games (with online capabilities). I have the BG series, and the IWD series, and NWN's... what others are out there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderAndrew Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 What type of game are you looking for? Arguably Starcraft, Diablo, and Counterstrike are the most popular, lasting MP games I've seen on the PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magena Posted August 8, 2005 Author Share Posted August 8, 2005 I don't care for starcraft. Diablo is ok, but aren't there some newer ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderAndrew Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Again, what kind of game are you looking for? I personally am a sucker for games like Civilization which can be played multiplayer. Are graphics important? I'm fixing up a text-based multiplayer RPG that I think is quite fun. It'll be back online in about 8 hours. Somehow the website got overwritten with zero-byte files and I'm replacing all the files without backups! Fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magena Posted August 8, 2005 Author Share Posted August 8, 2005 I hadn't thought of playing civilization online. I tend to like RPG's and city builder type stuff... oh and backgammon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderAndrew Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 MSN Zone, Yahoo and the like have simple Backgammon, Hearts, etc. games you can play online multiplayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkendale Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Hm...how about Empire Earth II? I don't know if you would like it though. I don't. Well, not very much anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magena Posted August 8, 2005 Author Share Posted August 8, 2005 Yeah, I'm playing hearts right now. I want something with more interaction though. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnderAndrew Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 MUDS and MUSHES are overlooked but quite fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, so was hubby back in the day. I wonder what they have evolved into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Humodour Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Mags! Grab DS2 when it comes out. That should provide some awesome multiplayer entertainment. Whaddaya say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkreku Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I thought Sacred Plus (and Underworld) had decent multiplayer, now that most of the bugs are gone. It's a click-fest as it's an action RPG (not really RPG either) but together with a friend it's quite enjoyable. Swedes, go to: Spel2, for the latest game reviews in swedish!

Cantousent Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Hell, we can create an Obsidian Forum clan for DS2 and play multiplayer. I'll have a bunch of folks over to play on the lan. Won't work for you guys, but... :D Fionavar's Holliday Wishes to all members of our online community: Happy Holidays Join the revelry at the Obsidian Plays channel:Obsidian Plays Remembering tarna, Phosphor, Metadigital, and Visceris.

GhostofAnakin Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I still say a bunch of us should have started our own guild in NWN and go around stealing loot from other people, killing random solo players.

Musopticon? Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I'd join that. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food.

Dark Moth Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Do you like RTS's (real-time strategy)? If you do, here are a couple good ones (both multiplayer): The 'Age' titles - Age of Empires 2, Age of Mythology (+Titans exp. pack),... Warcraft III (+Frozen Throne exp. pack) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musopticon? Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Dawn of War Way way better as mp then any of the previously mentioned rts-titles. Well, except Starcraft, that is. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food.

Walsingham Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I was astonished to read on the Beeb website that trading online items can run into serious cash. Thousands of pounds. It just amazes me that where in the 70s young lads were shipping off to Rhodesia to get shot at for this money, they could stay in today and earn it hitting goblins. "It wasn't lies. It was just... bull****"." -Elwood Blues tarna's dead; processing... complete. Disappointed by Universe. RIP Hades/Sand/etc. Here's hoping your next alt has a harp.

GhostofAnakin Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I like that. Sounds like the good old days of Diablo, going around PKing the stupid noobs. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I've suggested it before. I guess no one wants to DM the game. Either that or no one wants to actually join up with me.
