Bring your gun.

1942 or 1943?

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #2 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:14:47 PM »

1943

if i can tear myself away from wolfenstein i'll join you!

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #3 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:16:43 PM »

Nobody plays Wolfenstein, Eel!

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #4 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:18:54 PM »

i don't give a fuck what everyone else does or does not play, i'm playing it

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #5 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:19:31 PM »

Did you design it?

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #6 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:23:55 PM »

i don't even know what that means

Brehvolution · « **Reply #7 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:26:34 PM »

I"ll be on around then. Probably play an hour then it's back to Madden.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #8 on:** August 18, 2009, 07:29:54 PM »

I'm in

Good games tonight gentlemen

Eel is getting better with old age

I'll form a PS3 boresquad with... himumu and.... ferrarimanf355

that'll show you meanies

(seriously though am I the only PS3 owner on here that has this game?)

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #11 on:** August 18, 2009, 11:23:28 PM »

Yeah, Eel is definitely getting better.

He's beginning to believe.

... There were some great firefights tonight and a few close matches. I won't forget giving up killing five or so enemies, including a tank, just to wipe out those two douches on the boat.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #12 on:** August 18, 2009, 11:33:45 PM »

i think i just got lucky tonight, but thanks

we need new maps, but i'm beginning to think they're gonna abandon the game and concentrate on BC2

My XBL Gold membership expired last night, and I'm not restarting it until I can find a 12 month card for cheap somewhere, so I'll probably be off the squad for a while.

Good matches tonight, guys.

Kestrastrophe and I mastered the dick sniping move. Seeing that guy rush the mountain, only to blow up every time was my highlight.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #16 on:** August 20, 2009, 08:55:52 AM »

Sniping from our "Love Nest" was hilarious. I really wish we were able to blow up some planes before the time ran out during that one game. Zero gave me a second wind last night

Missed Eel though :'(

PC version delayed until 2010

well, we PS3 owners should play some over the weekend, then!

i should have my XBL Gold back up and running very soon, btw

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #20 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:31:23 PM »

Way to throw the BORESQUAD under the bus.

We really should come to a consensus on what the next BORESQUAD title will be. I think Zero, Kestastrophe and I are going to pick up Modern Warfare 2, but it sounds like you're allergic to it.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #21 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:36:31 PM »

i can't play on the squad with no Live! i should probably have it back over the weekend

as for MW2 - nothing against it, just no real interest in the modern war stuff (i'm going to rent it, though, so if it wows me i'll end up buying it)

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #22 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:38:28 PM »

Is there anything else you'd play that we could assemble for? ODST?

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #23 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:39:21 PM »

next boresquad title will be borderlands pc

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #24 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:41:36 PM »

Nobody cares about Borderlands.

renting that, too! do you need halo 3 to play the multi on that, or is it self-contained?

pseudo-fallout 3 with better shooting and crazy gunloot

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #26 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:43:46 PM »

No idea. I'm not too keen on it after seeing some videos. Looks kind of dull. I'd rather play World at War.

... but I'm willing to give something a shot if we can all agree on a title.

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #27 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:45:56 PM »

BORDERLANDS PC.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #28 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:46:27 PM »

left 4 dead 2

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #29 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:47:22 PM »

Buying multiplayer titles on PC is pretty much a waste.

I am down for Left 4 Dead 2, though.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #30 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:48:13 PM »

Borderlands, The Saboteur, and L4D2 are the only games I'm actually buying new for the rest of the year, so I don't even really know what all is coming out

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #31 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:53:55 PM »

if MW2 is all zomgwow i might pick it up, but it just looks like the same old stuff with new perks (and i sort of hate unlockables as they always tend to reward the players that don't really need them)

demi · « **Reply #32 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:54:53 PM »

EEL STFU AND BUY MODERN WARFARE 2 IT IS GOTY AND AMAZING

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #33 on:** August 21, 2009, 03:55:13 PM »

Borderlands and MW2 are the only games that I know I am buying for sure this year. I am still undecided on L4D2, but I just ordered the original for 360.

Quote from: Willco on August 21, 2009, 03:38:28 PM

fuck that. Not a fan of halo and definitely not a fan of the community

well, yes and no

smaller community nowadays, granted

but they tend to stick around, and not move on to the next big thing as quickly as console players do, so a B title is going to have a longer life in MP on PC than it would on 360 or PS3

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #35 on:** August 21, 2009, 04:01:04 PM »

we need to play some OG L4D on 360, then

i kept my copy because a friend recently got a great deal on a refurb 360, but he's so goddamned cheap he hasn't bought a HDD or joined Live yet

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #36 on:** August 21, 2009, 04:04:46 PM »

Not really. If I buy a title on the PC, there are a handful of people - at best - that I can play with. And while they might stick around longer than console communities, if they're not online, who cares? That's why I ended up playing L4D more on the 360 than my PC.

... Whereas I can play with my brother, friends, co-workers, boritos, etc. on the Xbox.

i'll play L4D 360. show you sum glitches

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #39 on:** August 21, 2009, 04:11:30 PM »

i can see that if you're not into public matches and just want to play with folks you know, but i've almost always had a good time playing MP games on PC with the genpop

i played BF1942 for over a year and never had a regular group

people will still be playing the new wolfenstein a month from now on PC, so i can hop in and out of a quick game here or there if i want, whereas it will be tumbleweeds on 360/PS3 within two weeks (if it isn't already)

sure, i'll play as soon as i get the gold back

Brehvolution · « **Reply #41 on:** August 21, 2009, 04:31:56 PM »

I'll play whatever. It's just much more fun playing with people. So you guys decide and I'll follow.

Except that's not true. Ask Cajole or Viz, they've both played with me when it came out.

I played with Disposable White Guy too when it came out. I haven't touched it in like six months, though. Maybe longer.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #43 on:** August 21, 2009, 04:37:17 PM »

Don't get your panties in a twist, i was just messin

I am with Zero. I'll get whatever everyone else has. Playing with our group is infinitely more enjoyable than playing random matches

Brehvolution · « **Reply #44 on:** August 21, 2009, 05:19:33 PM »

The only other game I'm guaranteed to get is Uncharted 2, which has 3 player co-op. But I'm up for anything else.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #45 on:** August 21, 2009, 05:29:40 PM »

no new maps confirmed:

http://www.joystiq.com/2009/08/21/no-additional-battlefield-1943-content-currently-in-development/

i'd bet money the PC version gets canned, there's no point in it with BFBC2 coming right on the heels of it

oh well, there's always BF1944 next year (you just know EA isn't going to turn down another opportunity to make money-for-nothing on a sequel)

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #46 on:** August 21, 2009, 06:06:11 PM »

Oh, well. I might pick up the original Bad Company.

Regardless of no maps, I'll keep 1943 in the rotation. We should mix it up with some L4D and OG BF:BC and MW 2 when that comes out.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #47 on:** August 21, 2009, 06:09:44 PM »

Bad Company is $19.99 on that Games on Demand XBL thing. That's a decent price, since it's around $17 used anyway.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #48 on:** August 21, 2009, 06:53:49 PM »

wow, that is pretty good. if I see you guys playing, I'll download it.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #49 on:** August 21, 2009, 08:10:59 PM »

I wanted to try out the Games on Demand, so I just purchased Bad Company. Using paypal is awesome

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #50 on:** August 21, 2009, 08:13:23 PM »

I guess I'll suck up and buy it later this weekend to. We can add it to our rotation.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #51 on:** August 21, 2009, 08:35:37 PM »

Gold account back up and running, lemme know if anyone wants to play a bit tonight

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #52 on:** August 21, 2009, 08:36:31 PM »

I'm definitely down. My personal router is down, so I can't do some stuff that I wanted, but I can play Xbox on the other one here.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #53 on:** August 21, 2009, 08:38:16 PM »

i'll be on around 9!

Brehvolution · « **Reply #54 on:** August 21, 2009, 09:06:45 PM »

I'l be able to play at 9 too.

Kestastrophe · « **Reply #55 on:** August 22, 2009, 12:34:47 PM »

that was an interesting night. Willco dropped his connection and Zero rage quit

I played one game of Bad Company this morning, we are going to have a blast. When you're on the turret on the tank, the camera goes into a computer aiming view finder

. So awesome.

the players here are ridiculously skilled though, much moreso than 1943. Some guy in a helicopter basically had our entire team pinned down for a good five minutes. You are able to make squads, so we should do nicely. It controls almost identical to 1943, except there is no toggle for sprinting $:-\$ You are able to knock down fences and doors with your melee, just like in 1943

We're going to have alot of fun with this

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #56 on:** August 22, 2009, 12:42:46 PM »

Yeah, my connection went out for almost two hours. It was thunderstorms here.

Zero "rage quit"?

I will probably download Bad Company tonight or tomorrow, so we can play Sunday night.

Brehvolution · « **Reply #57 on:** August 22, 2009, 01:21:53 PM »

The combination of not doing well and my wife trying to make conversation with me while I was playing was what sent me over the edge.

Sorry guys.

The Fake Shemp · « **Reply #58 on:** August 22, 2009, 01:25:58 PM »

So you went like, "Fuck you guys, I'm going to the beach!" and dramatically unplugged the system from the wall?
