Alien Swarm from Valve [FREE GAME]

[Yitue]

Yes well that's why I was wondering.. So you guys think there will be more?

[Flare]

Since the tools are out the community will make up some more content, and I think since the original mod team that created the game made the Source conversion in thier spare time I doubt they will simply drop it now, plus the TF 2 Hat tie leads me to speculate that Valve may have plans to run with this for a while... it is after all a relatively cheap source of positive image boosting (free game + free updates).

On the max promotion?

Yup

[Arbor plena simia]

Promoted myself, sad to see my stuff go At least the still have the P-rifle.
Can't do chainsaw medic runs anymore though Yet

[EWJ]

Any new maps created yet?

[LuckyNV]

There do seem to be custom maps out, but you can't download from the client host, not surprised given how little the average upload rate is for connections in general

I wonder how big a typical map or campaign would be :S

Now one medal and level 24 after a day's acclimatisation and hammering.
This kinda game just strikes such a good balance between casual and intense. Don't need pinpoint accuracy, then again still need to be aware and just can't go on autopilot. Love it!

Not sure how I feel about doing insane runs, tried one at the end of last night and ntoiced first level before the dual tech doors are immediately parasites and they're no fun. It'll up the intensity which I love but with unsyncronized people will just be frustrating.

Now speedruns, they're always fun!

Alien Swarm is ace.

[Andeus]

It's awesome. I hope someday UKCS will get a couple AS servers up, especially if Valve supports it with additional content.

Also don't underestimate the PDW as a burst/secondary weapon.

[Enigma]

Any reason why I'm suddenly level 1 again? Last time I was level 8 lol.

[Jethro]

Hmm when you get to 27 you have the option to be promoted (up to 3 times) and start off at level one again but not if you were lvl 8.
Yep, UKCS should deffo get some servers!!! Brilliant game!!!

I like Alien Swarm. Its a good shooter. Pity that it wasn't made a First-Person-Shooter. If it was, it'd be a lot easier to aim, turn etc.

[G3!ST]

it's good cos it's top-down. If it was a fps it be the same/worse than 1000s of other games
