Been a while since we had one of these. This thread's for just generally playing whatever with random /vm/ anons, without necessarily having to join a group or make a more specific thread that might not get traffic. That, and bringing back the old weekly game nights. In any case, feel free to post lobbies, schedule sessions, or to suggest some games to feature.This week, we'll do UT2004 on Friday at 7PM ESTGame can be grabbed with the installer here: https://github.com/OldUnreal/FullGameInstallers/releases
I was waiting for you to make this thread
>>2247110I was waiting for me to make this thread tooNow we're both waiting for Friday. How about that.
Gonna be trying to run a session of Battlerite in 1:40. Will post lobby link and such when the time comes.
>>2246994>a shooterI'll wait for the next game.
>>2247891>wanting a non-shooter without making a suggestionHell yeah, now the Game Night thread is REALLY back
>>2247887Session is up. Lobby name is Playing w/ AnonsAdditional deets here https://www.gamedate.org/s/1p5u1p5d6
>>2248034Currently at 3/6
>>22480344/6
>>2248034And closed. Truly it was a Battle that was kinda Rite
>>2248034>Playing w/ Anons>site made by some redditor>advertised on youtube and redditThis is just discord shit where you go offsite instead of using this thread as intended
>>2248366>instead of using this thread as intended>he said, in reply to a post that's using the thread as intendedyeah alright
>>2248386Why do newfags like you not understand that these threads are for 4chan only and not outsiders. Using the thread as intended he would have simply posted the lobby here and be done with it. Except he linked to some outside lace and also posted the lobby on there thus defeating the purpose of a thread like this. Here i am in a 4chan thread for playing together so i expect to play with people from here. Newfags never seem to understand what a imageboard is. You're always trying to include discord or some other offsite shit even though theres a thread right infront of your eyes.
>>2248409>Here i am in a 4chan thread for playing together so i expect to play with people from here>he said in reply to a lobby that played with people from hereyeah alright
I take back what I said earlier.Now that we've got a schizo that will throw out every accusation and excuse in the book in a transparent attempt to stir shit and avoid playing vidya, it's NOW that the Game Night thread is REALLY backFriday's gonna be fun
Anyone interested in playing shitty friendslop games?
>>2248489>not wanting to play with outsiders is being a schizoSo you have no actual arguments?
>>2248525I could, although I'm not interested in spending any money, so it depends if it's free or something I already got.
>>2248531I was thinking stuff like chained together,paddle paddle paddle,log riders,sisyphus together. However i can check for some free games when i get back from wörk.
>>2248532Yeah I aint got those, apologies. I mainly have Peak, Content Warning, Kletka, and Lethal Company. I'll look around myself when I get the chance. I've seen some free ones in the past, and I know there's some mods and such that also offer the whole silly tethered together kind of thing.
>>2248534muck
>>2248528The fact that you want to argue and obsess over paranoid delusions instead of actually playing games is evidence enough.
>>2248835Still no arguments huh?
gonna run this in about an hour thirty, if all goes wellhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/3124540/Far_Far_West/
>>2249007ah yeah, might as well use that gamedate thing toohttps://www.gamedate.org/s/3s2q3a2n6
>>2249007>>2249011took an extra min, but it's upsession code is SGXBZwill play a couple of missions, but will bounce after if nuttin coalesces
>>2249164dang, but kinda expected for short notice and early in the afternoonwill try more later, game is really fun
>>2249007>>2249011Ah yeah. Looks cool. If it all lines up I'll play, even though I have a ton of horde shooters already.Would be good to maybe check out the rest of the multiplayer demos coming out for Next Fest
>>2249011>might aswell advertise to reddit and discordWhy even bother posting in this thread if you dont want to play with people on here?
>>2249876>Why even bother posting in this thread if you dont want to play with people on hereGonna bounce the question straight back to you mate, because it's clear you're just a shitposter that doesn't care about vidya.The proof is in the fact that the anon you're replying to posted a Private session link, which means that even if you're paranoid and delusional enough to think that the average user browsing for sessions is a redditor, that problem is removed from the equation because only people that have the link can access those session details.And if you don't know why it'd be valuable to have something that can quickly and anonymously have people RSVP a degree of interest or facilitate a form of more rapid sub-thread, then I welcome you to /vm/ and your first Game Night thread here, because in that case you'd clearly not have been to any of the previous ones. Seriously, it'd be like you whining about us using Strawpoll in the past.
>>2249905>you're just a shitposter that doesn't care about vidya.Not wanting to play with outsiders means you dont care about video games? Nice argument.>The proof is in the fact that the anon you're replying to posted a Private session linkIn the first place he didnt need to post that. We have a thread here. You dont seem to understand how imageboards work.>something that can quickly and anonymously have people RSVP Theres no reason whatsoever to have that. I've been playing with other people on imageboards quite alot of times and theres never been a need for "rsvp" or whatever gay shit you imagine in your head.>or facilitate a form of more rapid sub-threadYou have a thread here. There is absolutely nothing stopping you from posting here and even if you couldnt play then someone else would simply take your place.>then I welcome you to /vm/ and your first Game Night thread here, because in that case you'd clearly not have been to any of the previous ones. Seriously, it'd be like you whining about us using Strawpoll in the past.>(You)
>>2249921lol, you don't even have any real argument anymore. Like you're not even actually arguing the point of whether it's connected to outsiders or in any way harmful, because you can't. You're just trying to paint it as extra and excessive enough to justify your crying about it, which is ridiculous and hilarious, given that it in no way detracted from that anon posting in the thread--they didn't even post the lobby code on that page, only here--and the fact that it has nothing to do with your whining, which was all about redditors and discord. It's not even goalpost shifting, you're just actually coping about your outburst.Especially with the cherry on top that you have no retort to the fact that, if you actually weren't new to /vm/ and these Weekly Game Night threads, you'd know for a fact that this is precisely the kind of thing people have said would have been beneficial in the past. So what's it going to be now, you little melty-haver. What's going to be the next excuse as to why you choose to keep whining instead of actually playing video games.
>>2249980>they
>>2246994Alright, server is up for anyone that wants to file inCommand to join is:open 170.9.253.190:10666Get the map pack here before joininghttps://mega.nz/folder/ADt0WCSI#maTrUezg1MOVQcnGw5bRkgBecause otherwise it's gonna be reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeal sloooooooooow

>>225195212/32 fragging on Pacman
>>2251933Alright, looks like we mostly finished up with that match of Bombing Run. Was a lot of fun. GGs to those that played
Oh yeah, and later I'll put up a poll of options for next week. If there's any suggestions, post em here, otherwise I'll just go with whatever I've got that's free or popular or pirateable
>>2247887https://www.gamedate.org/s/554b1p634Set up another for SundayGonna be the same as last time: will just make a public lobby at 7PM EST with the right name
>>2252026jabroni brawl episode 3sven coop>>2252359Why would i want to play with redditors?>public lobbyWhy even bother posting in this thread? Just go back to discord
>>2252359l4d2 could be fun, i know a 32 player server we can use
>>2251933fuck i missed it
>>2252026Poll Time:https://strawpoll.com/LVyK2doV8Z0It will run until Wednesday, at which point a game will be decided, so you have time to grab it + get any mods set up>>2252590I don't mind rerunning a session of it later this week, if you're interested. I'm fine playing any of the games I host later on. It's just that it'd be on a weekday and at the same time.>>2252576I can run L4D2 on my server, although the player cap only go up to like, 16-18. I forget which it is. I had to use a different mod than the usual Left4DeadToolZ or whatever it's called, so I can't run the full 32 if it gets pick. Shouldn't be an issue though. UT2004 got a good chunk of players joining and leaving, but we capped out around I think 15-18 at a time.>>2252558I added the games, and they should be able to run. I haven't tested the latest patch of JBEP3 with FEX, but previous ones have worked, so I feel comfortable listing it as an option. Sven oddly is even more temperamental, but I think it depends on the map and was still playable on my main problem map (toysoldiers)That being said>[hate potential outsiders]Ship has already sailed on that one, man. When I hosted UT2004, I invited some offsite buddies as well, and put out feelers elsewhere. I can tell you the logic behind all of it, and why it's still a /vm/ session, but seeing how you replied to other posts, I think the only thing you'll care about is that it happened, and that it'll keep happening.If that bothers you, alas, I guess you were deceived, and next time I'll name the thread "Tricking /vm/ anons into playing with random sluts" if that'll make you happy, but unfortunately the thread will continue as is. If you wanna keep shouting at people, that's your decision, but it's not really gonna change anything. Best you can do to change things would be to make another thread while calling this one gay in its OP or something, I guess.
>>2248409You forgot your anime girl image. Also forgot to say shit like "doko?"
Wait a second. Is this an extension of MMOdventure but for when the NEETs are taking a break with playing their MMOs?FUCK THE CLIQUE, by the way.
>>2253913This is just for video games, with anons, hosted on /vm/. Part of the point is to not have to worry about being attached to any specific group, as most already have pretty set in game selections and cultures. That being said, I don't really know what you're talking about, other than knowing that the MMOventure exists>>2253904Please do not insult the dokoers. They're off doing their own thing.
>>2253935That's good to know. I thought the MMOdventure guys wanted to cover even more ground. At least they have boundaries.So this thread is something that existed before, stopped for a long time, and is resuming again? What did >>2247110 mean by this post?
>>2253940>So this thread is something that existed before, stopped for a long time, and is resuming again?Yes. For the first year or so when /vm/ first started, we had Official Game Nights that were sticked and ran by the mods themselves. After they stopped, some of us anons were occasionally running it ourselves, along with keeping the thread up and open to playing whatever through the rest of the week>what did they mean by this postI mentioned intent to start running it again on /v/. People have been talking about joining in game nights quite a decent bit now due to that GameDate site, so it seemed like as good a time as any. Plus I thought it'd be good to make a thread now and this way so it'd be thread-focused first and foremost, so people would prioritize the thread, posting deets, and setting things up here even if they still make a GD link. Seems to have somewhat worked so far.
>>2253989Okay. That makes sense. This is a slower board and definitely much better suited.
>>2248525https://store.steampowered.com/app/3989960/Frog_Sqwad/let's play this, it's got a demowhat's a good time for you
>>2253855>When I hosted UT2004, I invited some offsite buddies as welloh well thread ruined already
>shooterslophow about rabbitswill post a lobby in an hour, hope that's enough heads up
>>2255120lobby is up, name is video games and the post numberdescription is weghpassword is buttswill wait 15mins for players, then will attempt a run
lol i'll never get tired of how bosses fling off-screen in this game
that's enough rabbitting for nowlotta getting ass kicked, still fun though
>>2252359Alright, lobby is upName is Playing w/ AnonsGet to Battleriting
>>2255740Oh shiiiiiiiiiiiit we got 6/6 playersDrop a (You) if you want in, although you should also be able to join in as a spectator and rotate in if you want in the main lobby specifically
>>2255744And closed. God that was fun. Glad to see there is actually interest in playing these old games without having to rely on d*scord or anything like that.
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3388224007could /vm/ beat rain world together in one sitting?
I wanna do RushRevhttps://www.gamedate.org/s/2i1r1j0d6It's like smash, but not smash, or at least I've heard it called that.Wanted to try it when it went fully free, but it died too quickly and I couldn't get interest going. Supposed to be different than the usual clones. Might be fun.
>>2256379Oh yeah: it'll be Tuesday at 8PM UTCIt's also like, about 8GB, so it's not that much to give it a try
OP hereGonna do a mini-session of UT2004 on Wednesday, while pushing a lot more for Bombing Run specifically. New Maps can be found here:https://mega.nz/folder/cK1mwBQZ#rSDgHsQqNoXyc1BbvZn3ywAnd if you didn't play on Friday, you can just grab the above link here >>2251933 and it'll have them in itAnd don't forget to vote on Friday's gamePosting again for visibility:https://strawpoll.com/LVyK2doV8Z0Poll will close at noon this Wednesday.
>>2249007gonna do this again in thirty minutesjust gonna be dick around and do a couple missionsthought i might as well just post here though, see if anyone wants in
>>2257127behold, the lobby codeVPSVL
alright, that's the last yee to haw for right nowwill put it up for more in the future, really want more people to play this
>>2247887https://www.gamedate.org/s/0c0y3t6e5Behold, yet more BattleriteGonna be on Saturday at 5PM EST this time, will have the same "Playing w/ Anons" nameMake sure to join ASAP, since it filled up real fukken quick last time
Nice, Steam NEXT Fest is active. If there's any interest in trying any demos and such, the list to the co-op ones can be more easily searched here:https://steamdb.info/sales/event/518611248440411942/?category=38Dunno how many I'll be down for, since I've got a busy schedule and my download speed is slow, but it could otherwise be a pretty good opportunity for games.
>>2257364I'm >>2247891 and looking forward to trying out, and getting my ass beat, in Battlerite. Any helpful friendly beginner tips?
>>2257854Ayy, nice. Okay so, the big thing is that Battlerite is basically an arena game.You have Energy Orbs (orange), which you can spend on stronger abilities.And you have Healing Orbs (green), which can give you "True Healing"See, when you take damage past certain thresholds, that threshold becomes your new Max HP.So if you, say, start at 250, and then drop down to 170, you've dropped past the threshold of 200.That means you can still be healed by abilities, but only up to that new threshold of 200.These thresholds get passed more and more as it drains, shown by the HP bar actively shrinking.The only way to heal your missing Max HP is with True Healing, which is done with the Healing Orbs.This also means it's valuable to stick by your team's Support, so that you keep topped up enough to not need True HealingSo in addition to fighting your opponents, you also want to deny these resources, or pick them up as you need them.Especially the BIG Orb, which respawns in the center every 20s or so. You have to punch the Big Orb quite a lot to break it open, so there's a lot of finagling for last hit.If you break it, everyone on your team, everywhere in the arena, gets some Healing, True Healing, and Energy
>still no afternoon euro lobbiesAlways the same deal, what's up with that
>>2256379Alright, lobby is going upName is "The Video Games" and password is "vidya" Should appear in the lobby browser, but otherwise the code is 109775245174975404

>>2258836yeah alright, gimme a minute to grab the stuffcan't guarantee i won't be laggy, but i'll try
>>2258850lol, accidentally hit 1 PlayerYou gotta back it out, hostman. You're player 1
>>2258836That'll be enough for me anon. GGs, hope it wasn't too bad. Thanks for hosting too
>>2258998GG, for some reason the chat dissapears when i started the game. maybe next time we'll use RMG or something. thanks for playing.
>>2257958I played lots of HoN/DotA back in the day which is why I was drawn to it but I never had friends willing to try new shit and play random games with me. Funny to think that after 9 years, this may be the first time I get into the game. If anybody wants to maybe fuck around during the week, let me know.
>>2259277Well you know how it goes. If you're interested in random games, you inevitably get more added to a catalog than actually playedIn any case, I wouldn't be able to today, but I could shoot for playing a short bit on Thursday as a pre-weekend sessionI've got a couple of people I could probably pull in, but if it's just us we could do some basic duels or try to queue or somethingLemme know if a time works for you, otherwise I could just drop a (You) whenever I'm free next
Alright, it's Wednesday, and looks like the game of the week is gonna be Power Bomberman. A true modern classic for the threads, so I hope to see you all there. Game can be grabbed here if you don't have it already (plus it got updated towards the end of last year):https://www.bombermanboard.com/viewtopic.php?t=1925As before, the lobby will go up around 7PM EST on Friday
It's also about that time for Wednesday Night Footbal. As said before, I'm rerunning the UT2004 server, and hopefully we're gonna get a bit of a focus on Bombing Run tonight. Server is updated and live.Server Join Command:open 170.9.253.190:10666Map Pack Updatehttps://mega.nz/folder/cK1mwBQZ#rSDgHsQqNoXyc1BbvZn3ywCore Map Pack (If you didn't play on Friday, has the new maps now too)https://mega.nz/folder/ADt0WCSI#maTrUezg1MOVQcnGw5bRkg
>>2260672Currently at 4/32, doing some DM while waiting for more
>>2260672And closed. Was fun. Didn't get as much Bombing Run squeeze out as I'd like, but it's about what you'd expect with midweek numbers, and we got at least a couple of good matches in there.Also, you might not like it, but this is what peak map design looks like
For a bit of Sunday side action, I was feeling like doing some BallisticNG. For anyone unfamiliar, it's an anti-grav racing game, which basically amounts to racing ships going very fast on tracks that may or may not go up and down and all around. This is specifically a Wipeout clone, but if you've play F-Zero or Redout, you'd be somewhat familiar with the concept.In any case, server will have the same IP and such as usual. You'll be able to connect with:170.9.253.190:10666Will go up around 6PM on SundayGonna be sticking with vanilla maps, as to keep it light (and because the server doesn't like custom maps loading a particular shader, and I'd have to test each track individually, lol). Server hosting means that any of you with the GOG version or with the """GOG""" version can join in too.
feeling like war3 this weekend, via wc3connectprobably do some custom games like warlocks for a bitdrop a (you) if you want a (you) when the time comes
>>2261330You really just gotta toss the boat in the water and see if it floats. Anons are a buncha cute little wallflowers :3
https://tetr.io/#KYASplaying some tetrisgonna go to 10 games, so get in before then
It's Friday, so it's time for some Power BombermanFor anyone uninitiated, you walk around and bomb the man, simple as that.Again, if you need the game, it can easily be grabbed here:https://www.bombermanboard.com/viewtopic.php?t=1925Lobby Name is /vm/ Game NightPassword is rage
Currently at 7/12 Bombers
>>2263968And closed. Good bit of bombing to start the weekend with. As posted earlier, I will have a BNG server up on Sunday for anyone interested, but otherwise: the poll for next Friday will go up later this weekend.And again, GG to those that played
Any interest in gamecube multiplayer games?
>>2264446I'd be somewhat interested in trying it out, although I don't have high hopes for the netcode with my ping jitter
Reminder for BattleriteGame is in roughly 5.5 HoursBe there or be square
Anyone played that SB2kart game, is it difficult to set up a lobby/session?
>>2265161hosting srb2k requires being able to port forward, but is simple beyond thatif you don't have a serverbox or something, i'd probably just suggest it to op as an option for next week's game
Battlerite lobby is upName: Playing w/ AnonsBe quick if you can, since last time it filled up pretty quickly
>>2265631Currently at 4/6Drop a (You) if you need us to pick you up
>>2265631And closedTruly the Battle was Rited for another weekend
Alright, was busy today so apologies for it being a bit in the evening, but here is the poll for this week's gamehttps://strawpoll.com/40Zm40Ow2gaI've added SRB2K due to it being mentioned in the thread. As a reminder, aside from L4D2, all the games in the list are free and pretty small to install, and multiple choice is enabled, so feel free to vote for whatever and try whatever out.As an added thing, I will also run Power Bomberman again on Wednesday. I feel like doing the follow-up night later in the week a pretty decent way to do things for anyone that might've missed the game or want to run it again. In any case, it'll be at 6PM, so mark your calendars if you wanna bomb some more men.
Hey, it's about time for that Sunday BNG too. As mentioned earlier this week, it's hosted on a server, so even if you've grabbed the game off from somewhere other than Steam, you can join in no matter what.IP: 170.9.253.190:10666
>>2267402Currently at 3/16 racers
>>2267437And closed. Fun bit of racing on a Sunday evening. Will see about maybe doing it again on the side, since BNG is just really fun
>>2264446Samefag here.What is a "traversal" server? Versus direct connection which is self-explanatory. Figured I'd fiddle with this for a bit and see if I could get hosting working. I'm using Dolphin of course.
>>2267501It's just the main server that handles connection listings and the handshake so you don't have to port forward and list your IP. To simplify it all the way, it's just hosting via lobbies instead.
