Lan party / introduction

[snits]

Hello fellow captains, engineers and gunners!

My name is Snits and i like to play captain alot.

me and some of my friends are having a lan party this weekend and we are with 6 players.

Is it possible to play together without other players?
what did you guys do at lan party's?

Practice mode will allow you to set up 1vs1 matches, also you can create a password protected regular lobby so that only people with password can join, so depending on how many people you're hosting for would depend on which you would set up.

If you have 8 people you could for example set up an open lobby and disable match scramble, get everyone to vote rematch, or if the vote fails set up the lobby again.

what did you guys do at lan party's?

What we did, when I was the leader of KNTG:

1. We had an open LAN-party at my faculty
2. I gathered my team
3. We were using the crew form option to find matches.
4. We had a blast, while pissing everyone else in the room by yelling commands out loud. :p

Favourite part of playing with LAN party as crew (Happened a fair few times to me) is when one person is on the mic, and you hear his buddy shouting "Tell the captain!" and you hear what was said... If what was said is good or bad, it always finishes a laugh, usually winds up one person (gunner) Holds mic button down and everyone just shouts in the room and I respond to them in game, best comms ever.

You can play goi over a LAN?

You're right Geo, this shouldn't be called LAN party - it's just an inherent name that lasted more than technology it was connected with.
