However, playing it with two actual people may help a great deal. I know that DPX has finals next week. I also have a business trip the week after next, but I'm sure between all our schedules we can work out something.

MI already added us on Steam, but just so Tawmis knows who we are, DPX is DeadPoolX (surprise, surprise) and I'm Virtuelle.

Will add you guys! And as for the switch for the bridge - I believe you have to turn on all three generators - fight a massive way of zombies - then there's a switch AFTER that.

Hrm. So I think I found you - but it added you as "valerie_dim" (??)... and when I search for "DeadPoolX" it can't find anyone by that name?

EDIT: Nevermind. I am an idiot. Was doing the wrong search. Added you both.

Tawmis, you should also look at grabbing a game called Alien Swarm. It's FREE and very team-based. You can have up to four players.

Since you have Steam, you might as well try it. If you don't like it, who cares? It's free!

Do you and Maia play it? I would love to get some co-op type games going.

We've played it, but it's designed for four people (three at minimum) so when it's just us two, the game borders on impossible to complete. We finished the first two maps, but after that, it just got too hectic.

I still have yet to play Alien Swarm. It kept crashing on me in the past when I've tried to run a tutorial practice game. Never did try playing with anybody yet.

Will try to download it sometime this week to see if it runs on my system.

Yeah, we managed to do the generator part without TOO much problem, but it was the finding the switch that threw us (we didn't realise that we could go up by the ladder at first). We took too long, then by the time we had it, the HUGE horde was triggered and it was too late. Plus, we were a little rusty, since we hadn't played for a while.

We were going to setup a game of Alien Swarm with MI at some point, but we never ended up organizing that. The game seems to run fine for DPX and I, but we'll need to make sure it works for everyone.

If the four of us could play either game together that would be fun!

I agree. So accept my friend request already!

Hold your horses! I haven't logged in to Steam since you sent it. Tonight, I will.
