Making a case for new games on NPF Steam Night

Bells · 03-13-2012, 05:14 PM

Sometimes is a good thing to just fresh'n up and get some new game in the mix.

So, i'm here to make a case for one that seems like it will be fun, and also making room for you guys to present new games the NPF community could enjoy playing it together.

So, my first suggestion here is Age of Chivalry on Steam.

It's free, you just need to have an SDK Steam game on your system (It's a mod) , so if you have Portal, Counter Strike, Half Life or Left 4 Dead you can play this...

Essentially it's a Medieval Mod for Counter Strike... you play Mission Based sieges to castles and villages as 2 opposing teams. Damage tends to the "realistic" so just a couple of blows can kill you off. You can Throw Daggers, use broad Swords and Axes or a Bow and Arrow to kill off your enemies.

So it's a good way for people here to literally go Medieval on each other which i think would be great fun!

Not only that, but this MOD is turning into a Full fledge game called CHIVALRY: MEDIEVAL COMBAT which is in Alpha testing right now, so it's coming... you can consider this some praticing on the concept then.

Soooooooooooooooooo anyone up for it? Other ideas?

i would totally play Moonbase Alpha with a NPF Team.

Hell, i would record it if people allowed it!

OK, since the NPF Steam Nights work in a special way (i.e. no one starts a game most of the time) I'll just start the game as soon as people get in the chat, others will surely follow :3

I would say Tribes:Ascend, but it has been a bit...unruly lately.

I said a billion times Killing Floor and I yell at everyone to get it when it is on sale.

I wish more of you guys had Civ4: Beyond the Sword, or even Civ5 cause a free for all in that with a good chunk of people is DRENCHED IN THE BLOOD OF BETRAYED ALLIES I mean full of reasonable Diplomacy.

We tried playing Civ4 before. We didn't get very far due to confusion. We don't tend to have much luck with any TBS games really. And unfortunately my Steam account is lost to me, so I can't use steam at all.

I wish more people were on psn.

That'd just exacerbate the situation!

Steam nights are all well and good but I'd really like people on the same side of the Atlantic as me to do things with. 3AM starts and bad latency kill my enthusiasm.

TBS is ok, but takes a long time. I'm gonna go out on a (broken) limb here and risk a multiplayer game with you if you have Civ 5. Just check the NPF steam group and I should be on there.
