So, what is Moonbase Alpha? (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jI8_9eN-2Uo&feature=fvst)

A Multiplayer Simulation made by Nasa where a team explores to Moon to accomplish tasks

It has a Plot!

Moonbase Alpha is set in the year 2032 and focuses on exploring the day in the life of a lunar-based astronaut. As a meteor strike damages an outpost near the moon's South Pole, the player must take control of a member of the outpost's research team and repair the outpost in order to save the 12 years of research accomplished there. These tasks will include repairing vital components of the life support system, solar array and oxygen units, and can be accomplished with a wide variety of tools ranging from robotic repair units to the lunar rover.

The game support 6 Players and 6 Extra Observers, all with Text-To-voice communication or Direct Voice Communication

It's ugly as sin, seems mildly dull, but could be fun with Forum people. Also, a Free 1.7Gb download!

Also, this Thread may be used to Suggest new games for Steam Night on NPF... maybe America's Army 3? Suggest Multiplayer Free Games we can use!

Free games? How about Alien Swarm?

Maybe some sort of free MMOwhatever would work too.

we can hardly ever agree on a Long Term MMORPG, Short term stuff usually works better

I have Alien Swarm on my Download list but never got around to it, is it good?

Oh yeah, Moonbase Alpha has an amazing story. [NSFW] (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6NHNCYhYe5E)

I'll never be convinced to play it unless text-to-speech is on.
