Hey guys!

So, I want to play more games with you all. I want to make more videos of playing games with you all too.
I thought it would be fun to play some old games we used to enjoy together just for funsies (L4D2, Chiv, Sonic Racing, Worms, /Knight Squad/ for reals yo)

But ALSO to play multiplayer games we've not even considered before. I'm even willing to pay for like, 4 packs or whatever if y'all are up for it and they're not more than a few quid :)

Anyway, I've been digging around and found a few cool ones. Please don't be boring and play them on your own if you like them :P

Got any more games you'd wanna play?
Think it's a good idea? Don't? Let's discuss and then do it!

Battleborn Release 9th of February - We HAVE to play this!

Bee — Thu, 06 Aug 2015 09:35:29 +0000

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-GNPoqvPCdQ
I mean, come on! How awesome does this look?
From the creators of Borderlands. 25 playable heroes using all kind of weapons like swords, arm cannons, grappling hooks, rockets, bow and arrows, explosives, you name it.

Solo-story, online co-op, competitive. Also looks like there are leveling trees like in Borderlands (yes I am only writing what I see in the video!).

I think it looks cool as hell and I will continue to follow it. :)

Overwatch - Sign up for the beta! Our new TF2?

Bee — Wed, 05 Aug 2015 22:41:57 +0000

Originally posted by Blizzard:
"Overwatch™ is a team-based shooter where heroes do battle in a world of conflict.

Overwatch features a wide array of unique heroes, ranging from a time-jumping adventurer, to an armored, rocket-hammer-wielding warrior, to a transcendent robot monk. Every hero plays differently, and mastering their abilities is the key to unlocking their potential. No two heroes are the same."

Take a look at the videos on the website linked below! I really think we'd enjoy this game since we played the shit out of Team Fortress 2 and most of us have over 50 hours played in Dirty Bomb!
Looks like a fun team-based shooter, clear and fun graphics with lots of variation in classes.

There are 4 diferent roles: Offense, Defense, Tank and Support.
16 heroes announced so far.

The current two game modes are Payload (deliver objective style play) and Point Capture (exactly what it sounds like).

The beta begins in the autum this year, sign up here[eu.battle.net]

Total worth: $109

I guess I'll make this a regular post, even though I'm just posting this at the moment because I'm bored.

Trine 3 Release 20th of August - 3-packs?

Bee — Tue, 04 Aug 2015 15:50:32 +0000

Trine 3 is getting released on the 20th of August (roughly in two week). I know a few of us really enjoyed playing it together so I was wondering if anyone wanted to get in on a 3-pack? You save around $3/£3/3€.

Comment if you're interested. The prices go up from $19.99/19.99€ to $21.99/£21.99/21.99€ upon release so keep that in mind if you know you want to get it. I assume the prices on the 3-packs go up according to the same price as the single purchases.

Let me know! :D

Steam Group Gets Reved!

Bee — Tue, 04 Aug 2015 00:10:57 +0000

I was looking through the archives of this group and it hit me that now when we've sort of started playing more games together again we should make use of this Steam group thing.

I doubt we'll schedule as many events as before, unless we start playing something that requires a specific number of people like Left 4 Dead did but I do think that features like making announcements and starting discussions might come in handy.
As it is right now I find myself wanting to post a link to everyone and sort of hold onto it until enough people who would be interested are on Teamspeak. It's not optimal so I was thinking it could be fun to have a little community forum-like thing and see how we like it.

Schedule events, post announcements and discussions!
An upcoming post should be from Pirate deciding what the next First One to See is. If you see him, make sure you remind him.

New members!

Bee — Mon, 29 Jul 2013 16:45:28 +0000

We have 3 new members joining us.
Please welcome (in your own disturbing way): Mr.White25, Swindle and grip! :)

Also I like cats and ponies

IMPORTANT BIZNIZZ

Bill — Thu, 26 Jul 2012 12:16:57 +0000

Partly because I'm scared of Muscle-Bee, and partly because it will be fun, I have devised a new regular challenge to make the Offset avatar. Everyone must take part, if you don't you will be gelded or euthanised.

To start, an image is picked from Facebook (relevant to any Offset member)
Everyone takes this image and edits it and submits their creation.
We all vote, and the most amusing/interesting/creative/offensive one wins and becomes the new avatar. You can use photoshop, paint, whatever. Print it out and draw a dick on it for all I care.
The winner also picks the next image to use.

I will start, and this time it has to be the new picture of DEAR OLD CLEAN-CUT PHIL

Good luck scumbags.
