You're talking about it like it's something in the past, unattainable. The only thing separating your memories from the now that we live in now is a few clicks with your mouse.

exactly

and it's not even like this was years and years ago. the last time i saw a tf2 server filled wall to wall with SpA's wasn't summer 2009 - it was, at the earliest, October. just a few months ago! thinking about it, it's a few months in which the game has changed alot (it's probably rose-tinted glasses, but i think that the amount of unlocks is definitely retracting from the game's magic), but it's only a little while nonetheless. people will have moved on, can't say i blame em, but y'all should drop in the dodgeball server for some quality madness at some point.

i can't say if the same goes for l4d, as i never picked up l4d2. probably because i had a paper round and so valued an early night

but regardless of the rage, the difficulty in getting 8 people together (which considering the frequency of 5-person LoL matches probably isn't that big a deal) and the infamous 'lobby game', brilliant times were had in l4d. summer's comin round and i'm gettin the itch to be really shit at video games again. 2 questions then; left 4 dead classic or sequel, and who else is up for it?

30 Oct 2008, 00:34 I know I'd been around for a while before because Tpyo and Nutty both kept hassling me to register. I believe it was a a fight with Mopp and Frosty (both sniping me) one night that convinced me to register had a lot of fun.

I miss the early days of TF2. The Special Attack server was absolutely nuts most nights, and was an absolute hoot and a holler to boot. I remember running around, singing down my microphone like a lunatic, and the servers really came alive when everybody was on at the same time. Usually at the weekend, rather unsurprisingly. The community really came together back then... I made my application after Saint prompted me to. To be honest, I'd never even thought about trying to join. I was barely even a gamer at all, and had purchased TF2 (and consequently a new PC when I realised how bad my at the time 7 year old PC ran the game) simply cause I found it's art style to be incredibly charming. Turns out it was also a work of art in the gameplay department as well. I suppose it would be hard to describe to people just how mental the servers were at times, or indeed how mental Mumble could get when we were all on there... In fact... even the forum is tame compared to what it used to be like. Threads use to grow astronomically, and they were usually torrents of insanity that completely derailed threads and spawned all sorts of crazy shit. That's what I miss... And X-Man... I still miss X-Man.

Well one server is often full, but its just regulars and a few spa. As for L4D, check out nabnabs post if your interested in playing tonite. I guess L4d2, because more spa have it, and it means players can have fun rather than worrying too much about teamwork which L4D1 needs.
