[Flash]

Great to see a fair bit of interest!

I've got a few friends on my list that I used to play with on the BETA, so they'll also be on a caffeine hype.

[Eyeradicate]

Hell Yeah, I'm in also. Either send me a request or vice-versa.

[ThrillKillBill]

i really wanna join this but i'm faced with a hard choice right now (well, maybe not so hard) my xbl gold membership expired yesterday....... i can either buy the game and can't make it or i can buy a new gold membership and can't make it.

**sidenote, before anybody points out all those free 48 hour trials i had that i mentioned in another thread once........ turns out all were invalid....... just my luck**

And If not there’s gotta be a way you can buy the game and come up with 7 bucks for this month’s fee…. Hopefully

When I get shadowrun tomorrow, i'll be sure to PM you the 48 hour code that comes with it matey.

[Im a Manatee]

Is this GMT? I'm GMT -6, so I'll probably be staying up until 1 Central time ;)

you both right, it came with the 48-hour trial, and ty kindly for the offer. that was real nice. once again being such good friends with "my" ebgames manager has payed off. i purchased my copy of shadowrun today and he bought me a 12 month gold live card solely on 2 conditions which i'm more then happy to comply with. #1 is that i pay him back which will happen next week. #2 is that i bring him a big mac value meal with sweet tea when i pay him back. basicly got a $60 loan for $4 or $5 bucks.

i'm tellin y'all, being a nice person does pay off at times :D

i'll send ya a friend request in a lil bit after i eat and i'll see y'all tonight for as long as i can stay awake :drunk

I must meet this man!

[Flash]

Is this GMT? I'm GMT -6, so I'll probably be staying up until 1 Central time ;)

Yeah it's GMT dude. Lucky for you!

[ThrillKillBill]

I must meet this man!

well, if you ever plan a trip to springfield missouri (don't have any clue why you would but.....) let me know and i'll name a place where we can meet and i'll take you to his store, and if you really want i'll take you to the south side of town where his twin brother is the manager of the other ebgames in town (never got hooked up by the brother but then again i never go to south side unless i'm delivering pizza down there) really freaked me out the only time i did go to south side and my buddy (actually his twin) completely ignored me, was a shocker to learn the truth

but we're gettin way off topic, so yeah..... anyways..... shadowrun, friday night, be there :Bounce:

[abcgum1]

Can you get Achievement points with the PC version?

[Flash]

Can you get Achievement points with the PC version?

You can indeed, And if you get it before friday, you are more than welcome to join in on your PC!

[abcgum1]

You can indeed, And if you get it before friday, you are more than welcome to join in on your PC!

How does that work? Do you sign in or something? Right now i have the 360 version and im thinking of returning it for the PC version just cause i like the feel of the mouse.

[Flash]

Well, If you take it back and get the PC version, Included in the Shadowrun setup will be something called "Game for windows - Live" where you will be able to recover your xbox live gamertag, and play online, cross platform with xbox 360 users.

When I was BETA testing this, It's pretty much a carbon copy of the xbox 360 guide. Really simple.

You'll also be able to setup a mike & headset output, to chat with other users.

If you have any problems, let me know ;)

[Im a Manatee]

Thrill, I just went on a class trip to springfield ILLINOIS, the irony.

Flash, do you know if there is a party system in this game or will we just reconnect to someone after each game?

[ThrillKillBill]

there is a party system, they offer a real brief description on shadowruns home page...... real brief. if flash would like to brief us with details, i'm still going through the tutorials =-)

[JJ UK]

I am so going to have to TRY to do this! count me in! - I have no idea about anything in this game but it looks fun and im up for it

and what timezone is the time?

EDIT: i read the thread and I see its GMT - also send me a FR guys or I will send you

[TacticalChaos15]

I'll be on for part of the night, I got Shadowrun today and I must say, FREAKING AWESOME. I really like it , it beats Gears multiplayer anyday.

[abcgum1]

Thanks for the info Flash, ill add you to my friend list for the allnighter. Btw how do you host a public game? I know theres one for the private but i wanted to host a game myself.

Now for that i'm not sure. I recall a Party system being greyed out in the beta, other than that there was a simple join game button & offline skirmish.

I'll be getting the full game today [A day early in the UK BTW!]

And i'll let you know ;)

[Haly]

My copy's arrived a day early too :D
Can't play it till later though.

:whs:drunk

[ABJeepin]

yea, don't think I'm man enough either. Ha. Anyways has anyone played this, if so what type of game is it; in other words try to compare it to another game. If I like what I here I'll pick it up later today with a few others I've been meaning to grab.

[Haly]

Nevah! :p
New PC's here now too though so I'm conflicted :D

Hmm, it's hard to compare it to another game, as theres nothing that really compares. The speed of the game is all dependant on which race you are fighting, which race you are, but it can pretty much be summed up to be a fast paced FPS.

With all of the magic & tech provided, it makes each fight individual, Which is why I think it's a great game.

[Flash]

We've got a fair few people involved now :) Anybody who hasnt yet sent me a F/R send me one, At 10pm GMT i'll be sending out the invites to the party ;)

[MagnetixSQL]

I am in....Flash already sent you a FR.

[ABJeepin]

Me too, which you don't seem to be accepting........

[ThrillKillBill]

Me too, which you don't seem to be accepting........

give him time to play games and or do personal things in his life friend, you'll get your FR accepted way before he'll be sending out "party invitations" :)

[Flash]

Me too, which you don't seem to be accepting........

Hmm did'nt get any dude. I'll send you one.

I am in....Flash already sent you a FR.

Yeah man, Played some yesterday with you, GG.

[Gun-Nut]

I'm up for this! Assuming I get the game in the afternoon post, has been dispatched so just waiting! :P will send a FR

[|oneyedNewb|]

thought i had you on my list? will need to re-send another FR

[SteelerXBox360]

I just picked this game up last night @ Circuit City just in time for this event!

I won't be on until later though, ~11:00 PM EST (4:00 AM GMT), so wait up for me and I will be there until the end...so count me in!

[Eyeradicate]

We had a big storm the other night (And hour into the playing) and since then our internet has been all messed up so I'm packing up the Elite and playing at a friends house. I had a question though, I'm eastern time, so what time eastern would it be 10 p.m. GMT?

[Gun-Nut]

Turns out I won't make this >< Not got my game, looks like I'll have it tommorw around 8ish.

5:00PM EST, I'm pretty sure of. Only 2 hours, 45 mins till the start!

[strippedpixel]

I'll be up for this if there's still room. I'll send a f-r

[JJ UK]

Wooo I cant wait - just got my first online achievement "You're Coming With Me"

[Flash]

Ok it's only 2 short hours away. Everybody make sure you're online for 10pm GMT, 5:00PM EST, I've had a fair few invites, people who are joining later, just send me a message asking for an invite ;)

[DeW222]

I'm going to go run out and try and find a copy. Sign me up, but I may be late. I'll send you a F-R Flash.

[|oneyedNewb|]

2 hours away and i haven't got a copy yet! should arive in 10 minutes though really looking forward to this!

[Haly]

I'll be about from 12 GMT assuming I can get connected as I had problems yesterday and forgot to check it was fine now :o

[Im a Manatee]

Sorry guys and Haly, something came up and I wasn't able to get to the store. Many apologies.

[SteelerXBox360]

Being a member of both this site and SBDSwat.com, I will have to remove myself from this event! I can't believe that I went out of my way to get this game, dragging my family across town to get it. This was my sole reason for the purchase and I might have to take it back now.

I had posted before I read the SOTF thread (http://www.xbox360achievements.org/forum/showthread.php?t=27354&page=4)

My apologies to having to pull out as I am a person who follows through with his commitments but I cannot in good conscious be a part of this event.

I was really looking forward to playing with some of you!

Enjoy!

[ThrillKillBill]

unfortunatly i got called into work today and just now got off work....... gonna try and make it in, in a bit but i spell like nasty ass pizza and gotta do something about that... LoL


**awhile later** well i started shadowrun, recieved a join request from FDlash, clicked accept and i joined a room that flash wasn't in. i don't understand that...... maybe a full room, maybe my settings deemed me unworthy. (talking bout trueskill feature) I'll try and figure it out tommorrow when i finish the tutorials....... and it's obvious to me now that i doo need to finish those tutorials...i was gettin pwned

[strippedpixel]

Thanks guys was good playing with you all but I need to duck out now (5am) not gonna last til 7
