Title: Artemis Post by: twodavez on March 25, 2014, 07:37:33 PM Does anyone play Artemis, and would be interested in playing at the LAN?
I know of two other's who like to play (FriskyDragon & Big_Spence), so we'd just need a few more to get a full team together. Post up if you'd be interested in trying it out, i think we'll have a few extra STEAM accounts with it purchased for people to try. That's what i did my first time playing, then i promptly purchased it for myself. Here's a funny video showing the some people playing the game. Warning there is some crude language that may not be suitable for young people: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9Q2X32hZNk (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9Q2X32hZNk) Title: Re: Artemis Post by: Renegade on March 25, 2014, 07:42:59 PM Zeta, and Burntcornmuffin both play it an own it.
I know that others that have played it are cheatch, Renegade, Cyphis, Uroboch, Evildoer, Maybe Action. Title: Re: Artemis Post by: evildoer on March 25, 2014, 08:06:02 PM I set the standards for communications excellence
Even have an award.

We could schedule it super late or when a tournament wasn't going on. We tried to get it going at LanOC, but no-one had a tablet or Laptop with HDMI out for the TV on the wall.
Sounds like we're going to be able to get a few games in! I hope to learn a few things from the "professional" Artemis group that's coming to FortLAN this weekend. Title: Re: Artemis Post by: evildoer on March 25, 2014, 10:07:50 PM I think Plague played with us too
When I play comm.................. we get attacked, a lot. Title: Re: Artemis Post by: Plague on March 26, 2014, 01:13:12 AM ya, I don't own it, but I have a copy of it. and I do like to play.
Title: Re: Artemis Post by: Cyphis on March 27, 2014, 02:17:16 AM Actually, I haven't played it. But I want to.
Title: Re: Artemis Post by: twodavez on March 27, 2014, 12:34:09 PM I think Plague played with us too When I play comm.................. we get attacked, a lot. I don't think it's possible not to get attacked a lot. I've found the key to comm is to get them to surrender prior to having to waste all the homing missiles, but i've really only played 4-5 games and i was drinking a little after frickers tube of beer, so i'm not sure if i was doing good or not. I do know, i'm not patient enough to be on Weapons. NUKES Away, no matter how close we are. We lost alot of good people that day. :'( Title: Re: Artemis Post by: Boon on March 27, 2014, 03:36:52 PM I dont have a copy but would be down to play
Title: Re: Artemis Post by: cytog64 on March 28, 2014, 11:23:43 PM I liked playing Engineer....I would totally give helmsman Cheach 200% warp power and he would kill us all warping though solid objects like planets and space stations.
Title: Re: Artemis Post by: Action on March 30, 2014, 05:20:33 AM I played as weapons when we played it at the mini.
Title: Re: Artemis Post by: Jabbernaut on April 02, 2014, 09:57:15 AM I love this game, and I'm pretty good at it. I've played it at a few LANs last year and I'm usually the one trying to round up people to try it. :P (http://www.nexuslan.org/forums/index.php?topic=1863.0)
It looks like we have a pretty good handful of people who are down to play, If we can get 8-12 players we could even operate multiple bridges co-op or versus.

I think we could get something going on at Nexus pretty easily, just need to schedule it around the tourneys. Title: Re: Artemis Post by: BurntCornMuffin on April 13, 2014, 01:03:27 AM As Renegade said, Zeta and I both own it, and I believe the copy I dropped on the fileserver is still there, so anyone who is interested can download and give it a shot. Also, the sysreqs are really low, so if we can find a projector or two to gather around and bring laptops, even low-powered cheap/crappy ones, we can arrange proper bridge layout (which is in my experience far more fun than relying on headset/comms for this particular game).
I can bring a projector for a bridge or second ship if Dave lets us use the event projector. Title: Re: Artemis Post by: twodavez on April 25, 2014, 02:30:48 PM I can bring a projector for a bridge or second ship if Dave lets us use the event projector. Renegade, any word on us setting up a screen if someone brings one? We could just project on the wall, but it really does help people play the game. I should have a tablet by that time to use. Will there be any available Wifi on the network to be able to play on the LAN with it? I went to a game store that had a set-up and it was very fun to play with random people and see how high of a difficulty we could accomplish. Title: Re: Artemis Post by: Renegade on April 25, 2014, 03:02:16 PM We have a projector that can be used. I am just not sure on where, and if I can supply 6+ PC's to run this on.
So it's kinda a play it by ear |
