Lazygamer has gotten bigger. No, it’s not just the winter months and comfort food making us pack on the kilos – I mean that we have more members of the lazygamer writing crew. That means there is a much higher chance that one of us (or more) will be free to play games with the community.
However, it’s still a community play night, so you guys get to pick the game. I’ve preselected some that I think will be popular, but going forward you guys need to give me some of your ideas, too. Also, as soon as Evolve launches, there will be no choices – you will all be playing Evolve with me.
Now to the next point of order – when we should play. When Gavin started experimenting with our calendar, he put community nights on a Friday night, when no one is usually free. So, here are some options of when to move the play time (or keep it the same) so that more people are hopefully available.
Hmmm, it seems Darryn got his vote in there at the bottom. Anyway, I really do enjoy playing games with you guys – it’s awesome killing each other. I mean, saving each other. Or, well, just generally having a fun play time together so that we can all troll each other in the comments the next day. So, cast your vote and let’s play together. Also, these days/times will all be for next week so that people have time to download if necessary.

I just got paid $7500 working off my computer this month. And if you think that’s cool, my divorced friend has twin toddlers and made over $8k her first month. It feels so good making so much money when other people have to work for so much less. This is what I do,…..

Friday evenings are really the worst time ever! One has to go out and enjoy some pool with very loud music! 😉
Alien Emperor Trevor

But… but… I’m always free on a Friday evening. What are you trying to say? 🙁
Also, lol @ tag – I remember that game ;P

I thought you’d pick the last option. Hey #foreversp ?
Alien Emperor Trevor
July 2, 2014 at 14:24
I can play well with others. Provided the others enjoy things like long walks on the beach & being buried there.
Sith JJ
July 2, 2014 at 14:26
So remind me to never ever go to the beach with you.
Ever

OH hell no

But he said you wanted to practice your bunker shots? @disqus_DoEH3TsffU:disqus

A shot means something else to Trevor than it does to me.

I’m up for a little Battlefield sometime, 3 or 4 – makes no difference. Sadly, I don’t have Borderlands 2; and I suck at L4D2; and I own zero MOBAs (which, incidentally, is the exact amount of desire I have to ever own one) – and so cannot add my vote to this poll.
Makes no difference anyway as next week I’m finally having a holiday – first in 2 years – and will be having fun outside with the family.
Enjoy everybody!
Mossel
July 2, 2014 at 14:22
I would also prefer some Battlefield. But Borderlands is pretty cool. And also, fuck MOBAs! *drops mic
Admiral Chief Fairburne
July 2, 2014 at 14:23
As long as I’M FLYING!!!
I ain’t getting in no MosselCopter again!
Mossel
July 2, 2014 at 14:26
lol I really suck at flying! One day the MosselCopter will be there to fuck shit up, but that day is not today.
Admiral Chief Fairburne
July 2, 2014 at 14:29
Good thing flying is my thing. When are we jamming again?
Mossel
July 2, 2014 at 14:30
I can check tonight! Will let you know later this evening!
Admiral Chief Fairburne
July 2, 2014 at 14:31
Cool, if I pass out, then I blame an exchange server that kept me up to very late last night (got it working at least!!!)
Mossel
July 2, 2014 at 14:33
Well done! Yeah I recently moved to a new house, so I might be busy with, like, stuff etc. But if I have free time I will send you a message!

Are you two playing BF3 without me? 🙁
Admiral Chief Fairburne
July 2, 2014 at 15:25
Pop me msg on steam with your ID, then jam with us!

I haven’t checked the BF3 servers in a long while… Are the servers still busy?
Sith JJ
July 2, 2014 at 14:40
So do I man. After a while people just don’t get into the aircraft anymore.
Mossel
July 2, 2014 at 14:42
lol that sounds like me.
Alex Hicks
July 2, 2014 at 15:05
I too have issues keeping the damn thing up and pointing where it’s supposed to go – but a good pilot can do some seriously damaging runs. Love flying with a proper chopper pilot and laying down some destruction with the miniguns.
Kromas
July 2, 2014 at 14:27
Yeah let us BF!
Alex Hicks
July 2, 2014 at 15:06
Kromas – I don’t think I have you on my origin list … send me a friend request? “alxhix”
Kromas
July 2, 2014 at 15:09
Done and done.

So I should start downloading Borderlands then?

I really hope you’re right man. I really do. After this day, I’m not so sure.
Admiral Chief Fairburne
July 2, 2014 at 14:24
If we do L4D2, I know of a few dedicated servers (provided they are not busy) or someone with a FAT line needs to host or Lagz must organize a server for that day…

July 2, 2014 at 14:53
I don’t have Borderlands 2 for PC… and won’t play MOBA’s… so L4D2 it is… I’m with Alex, Mossel and the Admiral on this though and would like a BattleField 3 evening.
Sir Rants A Lot Llew. Jelly!!!
July 2, 2014 at 14:54
That could work too
Sir Rants A Lot Llew. Jelly!!!
July 2, 2014 at 14:56
It also then allows more people to play since all the others have a limit of 4 or so.
BF3 would allow a much larger group to play at once
VampyreSquirrel
July 2, 2014 at 15:06
Yep… can imagine 32 of us running around killing each other? LOL
Alex Hicks
July 2, 2014 at 15:10
Bet you there’ll be at least one prat having pots from a mountain. I may die a hundred times getting there but I will hunt them down and I will exact my revenge!
The more I think of this – the better it sounds. Maybe we should create a LG platoon in BF3 anyway?
VampyreSquirrel
July 2, 2014 at 15:12
YETH!!! sounds like a plan… I’ll add you on Origin too. saw your “name” up top.
Alex Hicks
July 2, 2014 at 15:14
Schweet.
No – who should set up the platoon? I think @Admiral_Chief:disqus is a good choice …
VampyreSquirrel
July 2, 2014 at 15:16
Yeah, wouldn’t be a bad thing if he set it up.
Alien Emperor Trevor
July 2, 2014 at 15:11
……………………………………………………………………………………..sorry, what?
VampyreSquirrel
July 2, 2014 at 15:19
32 people in a BattleField 3 map… would be chaos if it was mostly Lagz Community members.
oVg... what castle?
July 2, 2014 at 15:20
Everybody would be hiding under the nearest bridge.
VampyreSquirrel
July 2, 2014 at 15:22
Like you trolling over there from your PS4?
Alien Emperor Trevor
July 2, 2014 at 15:23
Sorry, can’t hear you over my imagining killing you all ;P
Aries
July 2, 2014 at 15:24
think the chat will be more chaotic
Sir Rants A Lot Llew. Jelly!!!
July 2, 2014 at 15:36
There would be no kills. We’d all be too busy commenting on Lagz or badmouthing eachother in the chat lol
Aries
July 2, 2014 at 15:10
what about BF4
Alex Hicks
July 2, 2014 at 15:16
Not everyone has it. I’m all for it as an option – but BF3 was free a short while ago; and a lot of peeps picked it up.
Aries
July 2, 2014 at 15:17
im in for bf anytime, plus the digital tag servers are good on bf4, havent played much bf3 though
Alex Hicks
July 2, 2014 at 15:20
cool – send me a friend request (“alxhix”). The more the merrier – easier to find a game.
Funny thing is I hopped in a game with an ex colleague of mine – sniper only server – first kill was me taking him out; and he hasn’t spoken to me since … makes me sad 🙁
(He could just be embarrassed because I’m pretty crap at the game … lucky shots do happen)
Aries
July 2, 2014 at 15:22
cool sent it, and i actually just bought premium at bt, waited long for that special
VampyreSquirrel

I haven’t played much BF3 either… I haven’t had it for very long either.

Borderlands 2, hell yes.

July 2, 2014 at 15:08
Also, if there’s enough interest – how about an MMO such as GW2 or Wildstar or something, you know. Like an evening of dungeons or whatever.
Norm
July 2, 2014 at 15:09
Good idea.

July 2, 2014 at 16:24
Sorry.
But
It’s AWESOME!
Played the first to shite, now the second being even better it’s eating my days and hours.

I know all too well. I have had an “Arrr me matey” copy in the past. And within 2 weeks I put about 50 hours into it. Now that I own the real deal, I want to really put some time into it.

I think, Just Cause 2 Multiplayer… It can be lots of fun… and if enough of us populate a server… Choppa fight over the mountains!
