Is anyone else playing this free game from Valve? I just downloaded it yesterday and played for a few hours with a buddy, and it was a lot of fun! However, you really need to be 4 people for it to be the most fun, and playing with random strangers that don't speak English is not what stirs my tea.

I've seen that Jeremy has played it, but due to time zone differences we're rarely online at the same time. What'd you think of it?

I got it when i saw the announcement but have yet to play it. Season 1 of LoL has taken all my time.

It's a lot of fun in a full team. If you don't have enough Steam friends that play, try joining a random group online -- even with a bad team, the enjoyment is vastly increased.

I've kinda lost interest in it though. It's an arcade title basically. DEFINITELY worth more than the price to play it (FREE!) but I wouldn't ever buy a full box of just this, even if the campaign was expanded.

Yeah, that's what I've been doing when trying to actually beat the campaign (I have done so on easy and normal. Last level is hell). But I've found that a lot of what makes it fun is to do more weird shit, like see how far you can get by only meeleing or trying to finish a level using only missiles and health beacons. You can't really do that stuff with a random group of people.


Oh I agree. I wouldn't pay more than maybe $10 for it at the state it's currently in. What I find makes it interesting is the fact that there's so much stuff available to create your own levels and eventually also scenarios. Right now the available mods are mostly crap, but I hope that will change eventually.
