I was just curious if anybody is still playing any older online multiplayer games even though we have games like CoD 4 and WoW around now. I'm still rifling it up with the Kar98 in Call of Duty: UO. It's up to you what to consider old or not.

I play Battlefield: 1942 occasionally, and I recently came back to Counter Strike only to quit because of how horrible I was compared to the veterans.

I can never find any servers for the older call of duty games, if other people played them I would though (1 and 2 are heaps better than 4 and 5).

Does CoD:WaW count? I mean, it IS set in the second world war.

Just kidding ;P But I enjoy some of them, yes.

I Try to play Battlefield 2142, but it seems like the longer I play that game, the more likely it is to crash. Seriously, it was the same with BF2. Terrible shame, because those games were both so good.

Nope. I don't own any old multiplayer games.

By the way, welcome to the Escapist. Here's your shotgun, 12 shells, a grenade, and an Energy Sword. Don't flame, don't listen to the Search Bar Nazis, beware of Maxthereaper, and don't feed the trolls.
Hold the phone, all I got was a worn-out boxing glove, when did we bring all this in?

Oh, and do listen to the Nazis. They just want to help, honest.

I never really liked 2. But that's probably because I was great at 1. And 5 is just a crappy re-skin of 4 IMO.

Fortunately with UO the veterans(other than me : D) seem to be pretty easily rolled.

I still play Half Life and Opposing Force.
I just bought the anthology from Steam like a day ago. I'd never played the original Half-Life so I finally decided to try it.

I missed the inital buzz for one, but I still went back and played it (people still did when 2 first came out). Overall I liked the original more, but 2 had better graphics and the different maps were good for a change (as there were some pretty awsome maps).

You mean you will brutally murder me. I'm pretty sure I would suck.

Wait, listen to the Nazis? Something sounds wrong about that statement...
Well hey, that's just what everyone else calls them. I tend to call them,'Right.' because, as annoying as they may be, they often are.

What do you consider old? I play C&C: Generals: Zero Hour sometimes. And Natural Selection with friends. And D2, although not so much recently.

No one plays Warcraft 3. Everyone plays DotA or Tower Defenses. At least, that's how it was last time I went online.

I actually don't consider BF2 old. Mainly because of how modern it feels. w/e that means.
