Most Fun Video Game Ever?

[Mitchapalooza]

Fun is an interesting metric, obviously subjective for everyone.

Single Player: Have to think

Multiplayer: Medal of Honor Allied Assault MOHAA

I was in a clan, played matches, was on ventrillo.... some really fun times.

I used the moniker Ares back then as well.

I will give my most enjoyable story from those days.

We did a snipers-only scrimmage against a rival clan.... 10 on 10.

All you got was a bolt-action sniper, and an empty pistol for melee if ammo ran out.

It was the V2 rocket facility.... Allied team, start in courtyard and go thru the facility to attack the control room and rocket.

We go in and my team gets fucking demolished, by the time I neared the control room I had killed 2, and it was down to me vs 6 opponents.

Eh **** it, right? I have no fucking chance, I was always mediocre with the sniper, so I will charge the objective, try to set it, and then see if I can kill any of them.

9 dudes on my team are dead and just watching from 3rd person observer, giving me advice.

One of them is a German dude, who speaks English, but with a thick German accent, this will come in to play shortly.

So I make my move.... 3 guys are defending the control room, I engage the first one and the other 2 rush in to swarm me.

There isn't much space, so I retreat back into a bigger room... we're all shooting and bunny hopping and leaning.

They follow me, I manage to kill one, and then run back towards the control room as another one comes rushing in from the catwalk outside.

It is back to 3 on 1, they have 5 guys.

Again with 3 dudes we're shooting in this confined space, and so I run into the control room and they follow.

I jump on the window sill, crouch, and jump to the catwalk outside where another of them is coming, and I pop him as he runs, now they have 4 guys.

I open the door and go back at the 3 guys inside, but now it is 4... the last guy comes in from where I had come in.

Now all 5 of us are in this confined area.... the whole time, leaning, shooting, bunny hopping like lunatics.

This time it works to my advantage.... one of them tries to shoot me and kills his buddy, back to 3 on 1.

I get a lucky shot and kill another of them, hopping in the air doing 360s and shit.

This is when the German guy screams into his mic, "DANCE ARES, DANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Now I'm lmao, still trying to win... it is only 2 on 1.

I run into the control room, thru it, and out into the adjoining hall that leads to another catwalk.

I go out on the catwalk where you can look into the control room... one waiting for me to do it and tries to pop me, he hits me but im not dead... 4 health.

His buddy chased me, and as I lean back inside the hallway he comes thru the control room door and I pop him.

I immediately lean back outside and the last guy who shot me now hides in that adjoining small space.

I jump the catwalk into the control room window, then jump to the opposing catwalk and rush inside the confined space to surprise the last guy.... we get into a 1v1 sniper duel, leaning left and right trying to line up a shot.

After like 6 or 7 shots I hit him in the head and win the round.

The vent line erupts in cheers lol

Hands down the most fun I ever had playing an FPS or multiplayer in general.

And the clan we were playing was a top 5 clan... they were really good... I just had a horseshoe stuck up my ass for that one round.

Dance I did....

They have that map (custom mod) in Call of Duty: United Offensive. Game came out in 2004 for PC only, and I still play it. Few select servers still have enough people for like 10 vs. 10 sometimes. V2 is a retrieval map on the server I play. Basically one document in the control room, the other in a room near it. Gotta retrieve both and bring them to the spawn which is in that area outside with the grass. Or you win if you just kill everyone else lol. One life each per round. Really fun.



Also back in this game's hay day, there were tons of bolts only servers so I got really good with them. The funny thing is 95% of bolt rifle fights were just massive bunny hopping and shit. It looked hilarious in spectator mode.

Duels with bolt action are hilarious... that whole sequence I described, I wish it had been recorded and set to Benny Hill music.

I remember having to host w/e the anti-cheating software was for our server for some matches.

I had a 2nd computer... it was old, but it could run that software and not bog me or any of the other guys on the team down, so I would host it if our clan leader dude couldn't.

I played one last time with cheats on a public server.... kinda hilarious when you can see thru walls and shit.

Yeah the server usually played on eventually installed one. After awhile though, and when my friends got better at MOHAA, I joined in on cheating with them. It was hilarious to always get people coming around the corner and they'd never see it coming. After awhile though it started to get boring and then COD came out and we all moved to that.

Punkbuster? idk how i remember that lol

 

[Xuder O'Clam]

Most fun I ever had was the first PC game I ever played, Delta Force.

Repetitive Voxel Space is repetitive.

Yes the hacking was a problem in the early days of counter strike. We used to run our server with an iron fist.

Punkbuster was the most well known one. Eventually cheats were easily beating that. The server I played on had something else, but I don't remember what. I'd also get booted all the time from Punkbuster servers because I had sound mods and some other graphics mods (nothing that altered game play, but they'd just boot anyone with any mod).

That was it

Mario Kart 64. Don't @ me

Single Player:

Duke Nukem 3D: (First Person Shooter, PC) Well balanced. Had a good mix of simple natural movement/mechanics, simple but varied weapons, enemies and puzzles. It was fun to quick plan on using a laser trip mine, a pipe bomb or a bazooka... and if you blew yourself up, you could laugh because the reload/re-spawn was quick and never far back.

I played it with a buddy of mine, we'd switch off after one of us died, or started a new level. Great way to play!

Main character was funny, and had a compelling story. Levels were just the right length, boss battles were compelling but not too difficult. Each level or so added new enemies with different abilities -- like stun you, shrink you, freeze you, etc. To boot, there were hundreds of quick d/l of fan created levels that were good, beautiful and interesting.

Half-Life -- Really good singleplayer game. Good story, cool creatures, actual suspense. Highly recommend it. Plus the multi-player was a lot of fun too. Love using the Gravity Gun and smashing buddies with a sink.

Rogue (Dos ASCII Basic A game) -- I was hooked on this dungeons game. Also played a lot of Prince (Dos ASCII game). Axis and Allies, Civ 4 and 5, Command and Conquer (sand bags LOL!).

Multiplayer:

Jedi Knight (Dark Forces 2) -- on Internet Gaming Zone

The most fun multiplayer game I ever played was probably Jedi Knight (Dark Forces 2, Star Wars) on the Internet Gaming Zone. Gaming-wise there was light saber fighting, lots of weapons and even Force powers. We had a group that would play together nightly and there was a ton of chatting as that was one of the first games that had a chat in-game.

Plus the Internet Gaming Zone help spawn large communities and tournaments. There were the chat rooms to talk and assemble a group that would then launch a game together. The Gaming Zone helped the creation of gaming clans, clan websites and clan forums. I did the Ladder/tournaments for 'no-force light saber' for years. All of it was a lot of fun.

Unreal Tournament -- was a great multiplayer pure arcade kill fest game. My friends and I played a ton of that, usually teaming against the bots which were good. Had to hate Tamerlane headshooting you in 1 sec flat (we'd have the bot difficulty very high). The flack gun was my baby, I could drop those rock-nades anywhere, but loved to switch weapons cause they were so varied. Had to love the disc-gun that could ricochet those discs around corners!

Counter-Strike -- Lot of fun playing with my buddies. We'd usually play as a team against bots.

Call of Duty 4 (Modern Warfare) -- Played a ton of that on Steam. Preferred team deathmatch 2v2 to 5v5, any more players than that is too chaotic for my tastes. Yep, used punkbuster for a time. I'd get kicked plenty because so many couldn't figure out how a player could use headphones and hear where people were running without Dead Silence, and just a little sense of anticipation.

Single Player: GTA San Andreas/Vice City/V, Civilization VI, TMNT Turtles in Time

MultiPlayer: Splatoon 2, Mario Kart 8

Multi: Agar.io is pretty good.

 

[airtime143]

Single player- space ace.

Multi Player- Killer instinct. Wasted many hours at the arcade player vs player.

As for recent games- the last system I had was the PS 2. A couple decades out of the loop on games now.

 

[Ares]

Ok I have to throw in another Multiplayer one.

N64 Goldeneye

4 player battle royal...

That was my first FPS multiplayer game, so much fun.

 

[airtime143]

None. Only total dweebuses have fun playing video games.

I saw your similar comment on super hero movies in another thread, and thought you might be an insecure person way too hung up on what others think about you. this comment just solidifies it.

Using high school style judgements on the interests of others based on your perception of what you think a "man" should like is a giant red flag of someone who questions their own manhood to the point where they need to tear in to others in order to make themselves feel better.

Just sayin. People who are truly secure in their manhood do what they enjoy without concern of what is and isnt a "dweebus" activity and allow others to do so without judgement.

He's also likely being a shitty troll like he usually is.

Lets remember, this dude lives in Crystal Lake and is afraid of the city.

He actually is in HS though. Still plays with Tonka Trucks too.

Yet he has the nerve to make fun of people that enjoy video games... just LOL.

You would be scared of the city too if you were 6'4" and 170 lbs.
