HL2 - Deathmatch
 

Well last night I downloaded and installed HL2 Deathmatch, had a quick go, first thing was all of the keys were remapped, so was merily standing in a corner defenseless getting killed because I couldn't move, once I'd figured out the keys were wrong, had quite some fun, even laughing when some poor bugger got killed by a flying toilet - that good old gravity gun!!! LOL!!!

Anyways.... as a few of us play, I was thinking why don't we arrange to have a go online? you can setup a friends list through Steam, what says ye?





If that was all blah, blah, blah.... don't worry, if you had HL2 you'd understand

I'll have to get myself a copy of this bad boy ....

It's a great laugh when you realise that everyone is playing "soccer" by using the gravity gun to throw a car around and trying to squish the opponents!

Right - just finished HL2 (at last!) so it's now on to DeathMatch :D

Sounds like a laugh...although at the moment I seem to be suffering from feeling a bit ill after playing for more than 15 minutes!!!

I know this sounds wierd but it has been documented on both HL1 and 2. Something to do with the speed he moves and the graphic used apparently. Also having just come from playing Far Cry for the past week or two where the movement is a lot slower, I don't think that helps!

Gonna have to break myself back into it I think!

I have also downloaded the deathmatch thingy, but have never really delved into the world on Onlinegaming...how do we go about this then?

I had exactly the same motion sickness when I was running HL2 at the native resolution of my TFT at 1280x1024.

I dropped the game screen size down to 1024x768 and didn't have any problems after that.

So drop your res down a notch and see if that helps.

So are we going to do this then chaps and chapets?

Blimey and I thought the original Wolfenstein was scary.....

Trying to fight my way through Medal of Honour at the mo, all a bit tame but then I AM OLD!

Yeah I'm up for it...although you'll have to talk me through the stages of ensuring we are all on the same server or whatever?!?!

How do we go about it?

No idea, I guess the easiest thing is through steam you can setup a list of "friends" so we could see who is on-line...

Funnily enough I go by the name of freak... maybe we should try that first, and see if we hook up etc.

Have you downloaded and installed the deathmatch option?
