Oh, this game is very good so far. Me and a bud getting shredded, pushing a little farther the next time, getting shredded. Like an online version of Contra.

Holy smokes, 33,000 players right now, its toping CS! :eek::cheeky:

Figures a thunderstorm system would roll in right as the game finishes downloading. I'll have to wait for it to pass before I can play. Fuck DSL.

Absolutely marvelous game so far.

Is there any sort of single player mode for this game? I haven't played any online games since MOH.

For a game that relatively few people knew about 3 days ago, this is pretty damn incredible:

I wonder if the numbers will increase after the initial day (some of us are still downloading :().

Just want to congratulate BCG on a 'huge success'! :thumb:

Now, about Nightblade. :p

Is this decently playable with a controller (heresy!)? I cracked my shoulder on Thursday, so lifting my arm up for standard mouse+keyboard isn't going to be doable for a couple of weeks.

Thanks for the heads up, duckeh! I thought Alien Swarm sounded familiar, and now I know why. Congrats to the Team!
