Alien Swarm : Othor Games

» Sat Apr 03, 2010 1:21 am

Well I'll try to get it, my SteamID is Xanheri (Hackworthy was taken!) and Hackworthy is my community name.

Considering the game comes with the SDK, I think you'll be fine.

Wait so we need one of those games to buy it?

So if it includes the SDK does that mean I can now get other source mods once I have it? Been wanting to get back into Battlegrounds for a long time. (A game that anyone interested in the revolutionary war should look into.)

According to Steam, yes.

Man, I remember playing this back when it was a mod for Unreal Tournament 2004. Looks like a completely different game now.

Edit: Oh sweet! It's still available! http://www.blackcatgames.com/asv1/

Nevermind what I said last time I looked my old clan was flourishing but now it appears to have split off into a bunch of smaller, crappy clans. With it went our server and with that no doubt, goes the game.

Indeed it is just type it into the browser on Steam and you'll find it. If you're British you can join my clan as well which will give admin powers on our server provided they are not abused.

is it like a strategy game or Action shooter?

It is a shooter but set in the revolution.

It is a shooter but set in the revolution.

I'm looking forward to giving this a blast later, it looks like a very fun game. I'm also looking forward to having a look at the code.

[EDIT]: That was a lot of looks.

I'm off tonight and possibly tomorrow night (if I still can't walk), so you'll almost definitely see me on. My steam id is in my signature. Send me a PM here if you add me on Steam or else I won't accept.

Yes! Unlocks in 4 more hours!!! Yay! I can't wait to try this out

» Fri Apr 02, 2010 7:42 pm

Under the list of features it says "Tile-based map generation tool". This has me intrigued. I think Pariah had something like this but it didn't really catch on. Totally different gameplay though.

Less than two hours to go, at least, according to the timer... probably take much longer than that to download if the servers are getting high demand.

Still, go Valve! Free new game for my friends and I to try.

» Sat Apr 03, 2010 9:00 am

I don't suppose it's possible to gift this game to somebody?

» Fri Apr 02, 2010 5:59 pm

It's free. Why would you need to gift it?

» Sat Apr 03, 2010 5:30 am

It's free. Why would you need to gift it?

So they think they're getting a gift.

» Sat Apr 03, 2010 9:42 am

Lol. That would be pretty funny.

I doubt you can though.

» Fri Apr 02, 2010 9:42 pm

2.5 GB. It's going to take me three hours to download the game. Damn.

» Sat Apr 03, 2010 2:20 am

Timer has increased... three hours until unlock, now? Aww...

» Fri Apr 02, 2010 10:06 pm

Heh, I bet they're staggering the release so the servers don't get overloaded.
