Title: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: jazzycat on 24/09/2012, 12:06 PM Any chance we could have TF2, MWO or Planetside 2 as the next game night?
TF2 has always had a good turn out on top of being f2p/everyone has it, and the other two are fun as heck with most of us having beta access or being able to help out (and they'll both be f2p as well eventually). If the drop-squad sizes 8-max and experienced vs inexp. pilots is a concern anglo, EMonk and I can sort that shit out. Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: Psych0Kyller on 24/09/2012, 12:10 PM I vote planetside :)
But it can be organised, shall wait and see ppls responses before doing anything. Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game?

Post by: Number One on 10/10/2012, 09:07 PM i am sorry to say this but, MWO is still only 8 players a side. so, and this hurts but PS2 might be the best option for a larger grooup.

Post by: DirtyHarry on 18/11/2012, 06:31 PM Not sure if its been posted anywhere but the AUS PS2 server won't be called Rhea at launch. There will only be one AUS server initially though so just join that and you'll be fine.

Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: Syklone on 13/12/2012, 09:42 AM Why not get those who want mechs - go play a Maxi in PS2 and then those who want TF2 roll them into PS2 as well. After all PS2 has Red n Blue teams, so they can be Red. :)

Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: butcherbiird on 03/01/2013, 05:24 AM With MWO 8 man drops so chaotic and unreliable I would have to vote for PS2. However Monday night on MWO was so much fun I don't want to rule it out and would humbly suggest we make Monday night Mechwarrior a regular feature for those who wish to play.

However Monday night on MWO was so much fun I don't want to rule it out and would humbly suggest we make Monday night Mechwarrior a regular feature for those who wish to play. Having now played PS2 I would like to change my vote to MWO. Failing that TF2. I can see its appeal and I don't dislike it, but as a social game I don't think it works. The immensity of the game is counter productive to the social atmosphere; for example there are no breaks in the game in which to talk and relive moments from the game. I would have greatly enjoyed playing as one team in TF2 or fighting through 8 person drops using a roster of some type. However, I may be in the minority in which case I am just making my opinion known and I wish you all the best in future events. Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: DirtyHarry on 14/01/2013, 08:32 AM After last night I totally understand your points. It is difficult to co-ordinate a large group of people of different experience levels effectively in PS2, whilst keeping a jovial atmosphere and letting people have free reign to dick around.
If people are micromanaged then they don't get to chat, laugh and stuff around as much but if they aren't micromanaged then people get split up and wander off. I'll admit that I failed somewhat last night as I had difficulty striking a good balance. Not changing my vote, but a TF2 social night would be A Good Thing IMO. Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: Wtalent on 14/01/2013, 09:16 AM My statement still stands that leaving the big fight to go take a powerful platoon of 2 full squads to sit around points was always going to be a bad idea.
Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: Deadalus on 14/01/2013, 02:57 PM You didnt fail anything DirtyHarry you did fine mate :D, besides my net connection dying for 20 mins i had an enjoyable time fighting with everyone and im looking forward to more ps2 social events, even a squad of 5 or 6 is still a lot of fun. imo splitting people into different teamspeak channels depending what squad your in and evening out experienced/inexperienced players in each of those squads is a bit much for a social event. Although theres multiple squads per platoon ingame we should just call our platoon a BIG SQUAD and stick to the one teamspeak channel so everyone can talk to everyone and we dont have that split through our coms and we work together to take those nasty biolabs n shit as a team instead going off in our separate groups . Strength in numbers i say! also more bodies for us full time medics to revive haha
thats my 2 bob Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: Number One on 14/01/2013, 04:33 PM maybe for the next social we can have a MWO gig.. its FREE, Its Easy enough to get started..(trial Mechs= Free MECHS) and it definitly has that team base set battle system. also we can sync drop.
Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: mandatory05 on 15/01/2013, 10:27 PM Really, there aren't many video games that can cater for the sheer volume of people we have turning up to the game nights. We had like 20+ people come on sunday. PS2 is probably the best solution, seeing as the server size is very large, but I can see MWO as being a smaller alternative for obviously, smaller groups of people.
Title: Re: Planetside 2, MWO or TF2 as the next social game? Post by: DonutKing on 16/01/2013, 05:08 AM Tf2 supports 24 players normally, and we can book out own private server. There are pub servers out there with up to 32 players.
