Horde, Friday night, 11pm

[Zeus]

It's after Battlestar. Who's in?

[Blotus]

Me. Friday night's going to be busy at work so I might not be on Live by then, but I'll be there.

[Lox]

If I'm able to I'll jump on at 11ish and join in. There's a bunch of family stuff going on so I'm not sure I'll be on at all Friday night, but I'll do my best!

[Zeus]

If you guys aren't around at 11pm and I don't play something else I'll probably hop back on around 11:45 or so. If it shows me watching a video or at Xbox Dashboard (I may watch one of the many screeners I have), just send me a message.

[bovine]

Yeah, I'm in.

[SineSwiper]

What the hell is Horde? WoW? Gears of War?

[Tessian]

Haven't been paying attention Sine? Gears of War 2, we've talked about it quite extensively in other threads when it came out.

I may or may not have plans tomorrow night, but I'm going to assume I won't so I'll probably be there.

Gears 2. Greatest multiplayer mode invented in a while

That and Left 4 Dead are the forefront of the new wave of "real" co-op IMO

[Tessian]

Well it was quite fun... even if we ended up with one too many people, then Zeus dropped within 5 levels... and level 30 was mostly listening to Bovine's gf scream as we got slaughtered

We should schedule something like this again, but it needs to be earlier in the day. 11pm on a Friday night doesn't leave much time

[Zeus]

Yeah, my fucking internet went down last night. I tried resetting both my router and modem but the service just wasn't available. After an hour I gave up.

I'd love to do it again. And hopefully I can keep playin' this time. You guys set up a time that's good for you on the weekends and I'll try to join in. Sunday early evening (7pm or so) is a great time as everyone is winding down.

[Zeus]

So, we gonna try to set up another time this weekend? If you're interested, make some suggestions for timing. Only reserved times I have are 10 to 11pm on Friday and 9 to 11:30 pm on Sunday, and early evening on Saturday (I can be back by 9pm or so)

[Blotus]

I'm off Wednesday and Thursday this week. Otherwise, I won't be on until around 11EST.

[bovine]

thursday is best for me

[Zeus]

OK, I'm in on Thursday night. Does 8pm sound good?

[Tessian]

I work the next day, but if we start early I can stick around till 9-10 EST

[Zeus]

7:30pm on Thursday it is, then. Blotus, Bovine, you in?

[bovine]

yeah, 7:30EST is good for me.

[Blotus]

It's funny we're using EST all the time. How many of us are in that time zone?

[Chris]

hopefully I'm back from work by then. depends on my parking spot....but I want to do the horde again. that was fuckin' fun as shit poop

Yeah, Horde does kick all kinds of ass.

That makes 5. We gonna continue on Level 30 on Normal?

[bovine]

Patch out today with the longest list of fixes and tweaks this side of an MMO patch.

[Zeus]

The Horde waves each count towards the 1999 achievement now, huh? Very nice, will make it much easier to get now (I would probably have a good 100-150 more right now).

[Tessian]

Does that shield fix (not being able to kick down a shield if it's put in backwards) break the ability to use them as walls in Horde now?

[Zeus]

I hope not. That's a big strategy thing in Horde. Doesn't sound like it I doubt it. We'll find out tonight I guess

[Tessian]

Fun game tonight guys... sucks we couldn't get the LAST WAVE.

Next time we'll start at level 48 and complete it

Bovine-- has anyone told you you're quite good at firing a pistol?

[Zeus]

That did fucking suck ass that we got all the way to level 50 and couldn't finish it. And on Normal with 4 people nonetheless (dammit, Chris, where were you?). I agree, starting at level 48 would be best, we need those damned shields.

Tess - has anyone ever told you you're quite good at firing the mortars? :-)

[bovine]

Anybody up for some of this tonight? I got a tweet from Blotus saying he is free (also he posted it on the board). If no, then you are a jerk, if yes, then please contact me somehow. I will also check back here later.

Sorry man, I was out all night

[Zeus]

Maybe Friday after Battlestar if you guys want?

[bovine]

I can probably make it

[Tessian]

Didn't see this post last night, otherwise I woulda joined.. we tried to invite you this afternoon but you didn't respond

Bovine, Blotus and I did some Horde this afternoon and finally finished it. Went from 45-50 on Day One. Finally!

Sorry, I wasn't on the 360 then. The inlaws and brother-in-law were watching a movie then, I was actually not even downstairs.

Dammit, I really wanted to beat it on Normal. Well, guess we'll have to do it on Hardcore now :-)

[Mental]

You guys have never failed to make me wish I enjoyed a good FPS.

[Zeus]

So, when we gonna take a stab at Hardcore?

[Zeus]

No possibility of Hardcore Horde in the future?

[Chris]

I could introduce you to my hardcore horde but you are maried and straight.

At least I'm the most powerful kind even if I am arrogant and proud :-)
