Test Squadron Super Spectacular Saturdays

[Loteus]

Come one!
Come all!

To our first maybe-weekly, all-you-can-play, TEST Squadron gaming palooza!
There'll be TESTies, there'll be games.
We're still mapping stuff out, but we're aiming for 2pm EST.
That's 1400 hours for you damned French-loving twenty-four hour clock users out there. (Je t'aime)

Be in the Test Squadron channel on the testoutfit.info Teamspeak server.
Push-to-talk enforced.

Suggest games to play below.

Also, join the steam group. We're going to try to start using it more often.

I think that the following games should be up for grabs to play,

Diaspora
TF2
War Thunder
PlanetSide 2
Any of the free games on Steam, really.
Ticket to Ride

Those are some fun multiplayer games that are mostly free. Ticket to Ride costs money but its a fun board game made into a videogame that is worth the few bucks it costs.

 

[Barthanes]

1. 24 hr clock is also military time.
2. SPEHSS MAHREEN!
3. DAWN OF WAR 2 (retribution cause its got all the armies except the Egyptian Space Robots)

 

[SeungRyul]

I AM SOOOOO IN!! Props to Loteus for setting this up!

 

[Munken]

WC3?

 

[TestBot]

This is awesome!

My suggestions:

Path of Exile
Guild Wars 2
League of Legends
PayDay 2 (if our numbers are low)
Planetside 2 (probably shouldn't suggest a game which I won't be there for)

 

[Daiten Baou]

...I'm gonna need more bullets...

Borderlands 2
Any free games
Any Warhammer 40k
I've most mmos (except WoW... because I gave Blizz the one-fingered salute)
Mass Effect 3
....Ask away if you want me in on a game... odds are I have it if it was major at all.

 

[Munken]

Maybe make a strawpole?

Killing floor

 

[Loteus]

I may have found something you might all agree on.
Today, Space Engineers, a game about crashing ships into other ships, released its first public multiplayer build.
I'm going to check out it's stability, and see how accurately I can recreate an Aurora.
It's $15 on Steam. (or anywhere, really.)

Is everyone okay with this, or do we want something that's notspace/free/warhammer/etc.?

 

[Dragor]

Im in for some Aurora building in space!

 

[SkippyLeDoo]

DayZ or Arma 3 would be cool, but free games might be a better idea.

 

[JoeCool4433]

Mass Effect 3

Totally forgot about ME3, some great multiplayer right there.

I think we should start off with some free to play games to get our feet wet then if the interest is there, move to paid games.

 

[halfsane]

I vote for the free stuff !

I also have Arma 3, Payday 2, BF4, Just Cause 2 MP, Borderlands 2, and all Unreal Tournaments!

 

[Munken]

I vote for the old Unreal Tournaments and quake

 

[Barthanes]

I am a spehss engeneer!
Unfortunately i have duty on saturday.
Unless the time difference makes it sunday for me and saturday for yall.

 

[Dragor]

So which free games are we going to play? I would like to know this soon, because I aint got the fastest of the internetz

 

[Loteus]

So, general consent seems to be that we want something free, or at least delay the playing of non-free games until we get a look at how much interest there is.

With that in mind, I'm nominating War Thunder as our game for this particular Saturday.
It's free, it has guns and ramming, and I've never played it. Let's see how it goes.

 

[halfsane]

What time does this party start?

 

[Loteus]

What time does this party start?

At 2pm EST, or 11am PST, or in an hour and ten minutes from now. There's a couple of us in TS right now, actually.

 

[Monilas]

At the urging of the voices from TS, i've registered a squadron/clan thingy for us in War Thunder. Do a search for TEST and you should spot it. Accepting any and all able-bodied people. And the rest of them.
