The Ship

[Sarin]

The Ship I've seen some mention of people wanting to play this one here and was just wondering a few things.

I had a look at this game a while ago and it really seems to have a interesting premise and could be loads of fun if it actually works.

I'm just wondering if any of you guys have played it and if so how it plays and if there is ever anyone online to play it with, cause I can't imagine that there would be that many.

Cheers

I remember someone talking about how much potential it has, but the few servers that actually have the game typically treat it as straight up death match. So unless you're able to arrange a private organized game (like with us! ^_^) you're out of luck.

A private match is definitely in the future. I believe Surf wanted to run it next week, but he is now going to be afk all of Monday. But it's definitely in the future

Yea I have to take a stupid damn class for my stupid damn job or I will lose my license, it's a bloody week long!  Like lasting all day 8:30 to 5 for a week  >

Anyways I think NS is the perfect choice for Monday, I haven't played it yet but its got a lot of people interested here.

As far as the ship, the following monday we will play the HL1 version cuz its free.  If it is good enough and we have enough people who are interested we could try to work up a way to play the new $15 version with some regularity.  Or we could hope for a good weekend sale  ;D

Well do note, Surf is wanting to have us play the original HL1 mod, whereas there is a sold HL2 mod version.  I have the HL2 mod one coz' I found a retail copy for $5, but I haven't really played it much.  I did play the original some, and it was incredible then even.

I might be interested in the newer version.

The Ship, for old times sake

I would possibly join in for this. I didn't get to play it all that much.

No please god no, the new ship sucks. It went from mystery murder to straight up murder.

ive been looking at getting The Ship, and i remember karth saying that

anyone have any comments on the game? i dont wanna get it if the game got really bad.. it however was pretty fun when i got to play it for MMM with you guys.

[Scary Womanizing Pig Mask]

I'd be down for this.

[zaneyard]

id be interested, but if the gameplay got raped in an update like karth suggested then idk if its worth paying 17 bucks for.

[KarthXLR]

I still think the ship's gameplay has balance problems, but you all hate me, so learn to ignore my posts.

[zaneyard]

very contributory karth, im honestly asking your opinion

I still thought it was fun, even more so with more brbuers besides us two

[Luca Shoal]

I havent played since I bought it. But more would be fun.

[zaneyard]

Go on eBay, the boxed copy of the game got liquidated and you can get it for like $5 shipped. I think I paid $7 for mine.

This is one of those games that is an amazing concept and just missed it in execution.  I wish more people played around with concepts like this.

Outerlight is working on a sequel


Im not opposed to revisiting this once a month or so since a lot of people have it. Any more and the game gets old IMO
