>A NEUTRAL BALL SPAWNS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MAP AND YOUR TEAM MUST CAPTURE THE BALL AND TAKE IT TO THE OTHER TEAM'S BASE IN ORDER TO SCORE.So we're playing basketball?
I'm in.
>>92926It's like neutral flag. You have to pick up the ball, and shoot your way into the enemy spawn to plant the ball.
>>92926NO IT'S MORE LIKE FOOTBALL KINDAAND YOU HAVE GUNS AND YOU SHOOT PEOPLE
FREE? I'm in.
I'm the best S4 player on plus4.
So it's Bombing Run.
>>92933OP was rushing. theres CTF, DM, TDM, Chaser, and Arcade mode.
>>92933Yeah, except you can't pass or hand-off the ball, the ball is more like a CTF flag, and the scoring system is a traditional 1-0 thing, with two halves per game, I think? It's been a while since I played.I think the point was mostly that S4 is cheap (read: free) and easy to get, so it'd be the perfect thing to use to turn into a competitive sporting league for plus4.>>92932SHOW AND PROVE SON WAT
>>92936When I fix my PC...
people stll play s4?
>>92936That's cool with me, I fucking loved Bombing Run.
Downloaded this game, but never played. Should I re-download? How often do you guys play?
>>92940The point was to set up a like.. league. Like games with schedules spread out over a season, with playoffs and a championship game. Or we could do all the season's games in one day, the schedule is really just a matter of availability, I reckon.The game itself is just okay, the point is it's just like... free, so we can include as much of plus4 as possible. :)More people = more/bigger teams, yeah?
>>92943I guess. I'm just thinking about the time we tried to do regular TF2 games; everyone kind of lost interest (well, Anonex is hard to get ahold of, anyways). If this is to succeed it'd need to be well organized.
>>92945True, but we'd also be working in smaller groups, since we're not likely to draw enough people to have more than 3 or 4 2-3 person teams.
Balls, you say.
Yeah, I'm in.
Fuck yes S4! So in
Turns out I still have S4 on my computer. Somehow. So, sure, why not. What's the level of gameplay here? Do I need to be hardcore into this or something? What's the scale from 1 to Korean?
I'm better than most of the people we played online, and I just have good shooter fundamentals, I am not Korean. But we're just going to be playing against each other, and the Bro is going to stick us into teams randomly, and then we'll play against the other teams like a baseball or basketball team or whatever. It's all for fun, but the point was to get /cog/ together for some community gaming.
>>92992So, when do we start?
>>93002We need enough definitive yeses to get the teams going. I'll talk to Charles Barkley when he gets online about when he wants to start putting the teams together and stuff.
Yeah, I think I'll try this.
So far we have like 8 yeses, 2 maybes, and a couple people who we are waiting to hear from. So as of now 4-6 teams of 2 or something like 4 teams of 3.As of right now we're looking at the rules as team TD on Tunnel, all weapons are fair game, no upgrades, and we're undecided on character switching in the middle of rounds. I'm against character switching entirely, but I reckon that would be up for debate. I'm also against invisibility as it serves no purpose (except being a gigantic douche) in TD imho, everything else is fair game, also up for debate.
http://steamcommunity.com/groups/plus4s4My steam username is ToxicRevenger, add me and send me a message if you definitely want to be in, and I'll invite you to the group and then we'll move from there, since this will be a better way to organize it.
>>93268Just sent you a friend request, bro.
We got six people to respond via steam, is there anybody else who I missed, because the reply count stands at about 12, which means I only got steam responses from half of you.
>>93547It is because everyone thinks this is a horrible idea.
>>93551Yeah, I mean, who would want to play games with a gaming community instead of just bitching and fangasming about them all the time?
I'm down to play with some +4 people, so I'm guess I'll try.
>>93268Sent friend request and waiting for invite now.
