QUOTE(prasys @ Jul 13 2010, 04:51 PM) Again if there is not any MY/SG/TH servers , I wouldn't want to play. I dont want to play HK or CN servers because people hardly speak english. Communicating through Mandarin may suck for me and on top of that I dont know how to speak Cantonese. So its a no go for me. why most of the games so many us player. i rarely see any sg or malaysian players around excecpt for certain games like tf2. i will pass the dod offer since there are lack of asian player playing How many times it has been said. Latency != Speed. I can give you an example , 3G Wireless Broadband. Sure you can get 5Mbps download , but the minimum latency to a TF2 server is around 90ms , oh there are packet losses too. Anyway , the AAG should reduce the latency , (Asian-American gateway). Direct link from asia to US , instead of going through Europe/Africa. Playing with Europeans may be fun , but then you've a language barrier. I dont mind playing with them , but trust me . Some of them dont know a word of english , nor understand the command of "fall back and back me up". Unless its a UK server , then its another issue. Oh did I say , that they do kick non-European IPs , some servers to do that. In other words , a lot of complexity. I wanted to buy red Orchestra too , a good game indeed but then there weren't any local players. If it had SP , I might buy it for SP , sadly it only has MP gogo2 , well said.

lol jack sparrow awesome term.
most of them hang out at flying spaghetti monster also known at BOOTLEGGED place. Yup, most people play dota, very boring for me though. Just curious, is TF2 worth buying? I bought CS:S but my friend prefers TF2 more ( He has almost all of the valve games ) |

Recently my friend got his account "hijacked" by scammers as he was stupid enough to give out details , but then I can't really say he is stupid as he managed to paste the log and save it.

Oh man, that's one lame scam attempt.» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « The semi-poorly way the "steam guy" sentences are built automatically would have raised flags with me... even if you forget they will NOT ask for your details by chat... I mean... "Affirmative"? "let's do it"? "got hacked by someone"? I have to write business emails every day to customers and stuff like these are simply not professional enough for a customer service in my opinion. Oh and for god sake your transcript even have the "Never tell your password to anyone." at the very top which made me lol And pasting the logs itself might not be proof enough for Steam no? Screenshots are always better I think, much harder to fake. This post has been edited by Gormaz: Jul 13 2010, 11:43 PM |

KF should be third,due to the really fun gun mechanism and team survival game play. Best zombie game i would say.BFBC2 comes second. Then, Killing Floor is third. After that, it's only CoD4 or MW2, if you dont mind the crap behind it. QUOTE(dazealot @ Jul 13 2010, 10:06 PM) The crap! Behind it!?... I did expect MW2 MP would be dead by now, but no, still alive. MW2 is not a terrible game (to most people. it is to me.) but it is really overrated. I had expected the community to die in a year, but man I was wrong. The hype never dies for some reason. And the devs are just making paid maps these days (now we know why no dedi eh? so no one can make custom maps). I suppose each people have their own preferences, so I'll respect their decision to buy and play the game. MW2 is actually a good game, if you take away the no dedi issue, overpriced maps, Activision-IW crap and those endless imba issues. The gun fights are pretty fun with decent ethical people who dont purposely exploit every single exploit in the book. Plus, shiny guns and customisable classes. I find MW2 maps are actually darn fun to play on, than CoD4 maps. I did enjoy MW2 when i play it on free weekend and other people's copy, but it's not worth my 60USD for a game like this. I might buy Black Ops because it has dedicated servers. The MP looks promising so far. Changable ammo like explosive and incendiary ammo, crossbows to even things like visual looks. It's pretty much CoD4 reloaded, and hope for decent balance. The base game would be much better than MW2 as it has the probably ridiculously explosive SP like MW2 ( i hate MW2's campaign,as it doesnt feel like a war at all), a co-op mode that allow up to 4 players, typical deathmatch, ctf and so on dedicated server MP, and then, probably a zombie mode. |

QUOTE(mrhulk @ Jul 14 2010, 01:15 AM) CODMW2 is better than Team Fortress 2 You think im dumb or what.MW2 have been number 1 since it was released.MW2 could be the top game of the list,but it doesnt mean it;s the best among other games out there. Full of exploits, hackers, balance problems and so on. The game itself is fun, only without those retards ruining games. If it had a dedicated server, it would have been far more players than now,as the base game itself is actually much better than CoD4. More like those MW2 players keep dreaming that their MW2 is the best game out there,while the truth is: there are other gems out there that is far better than MW2.
