The Ship.

Most people haven't heard of or played it, but it's a great game.

Not worth doing as an actual comp, but a fun comp ftw.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/2400/ <-- more info.

On a related note, anyone else enjoy this game? A mate of a mate of mine has recently set up a server and it's actually being played in Australia again. More people playing would be awesome.

I have a 3 day guest pass, so that's the next best thing.

If you'd like said pass, either add me to steam (see sig) or PM me your preferred email address and I'll send it your way. (I don't need it. They give us a new one every few months.) =)

But, a brief description since you've never played it.

You and everyone else is trapped on a ship. Rounds are by default 90 seconds long, with 20 seconds between rounds (I think). During each match, you have to find weapons hidden in draws, cupboards, etc, and hunt down your "Quarry" based on their location which you are given every 30 seconds (you can make it constantly update if you wish, but I like it better the old way tongue.gif ), making sure not to be taken out by your hunter. You get an amount of money based on which weapon you use (the weapon rewards change as the game goes on), and generally it's first to $x or highest when the tiem runs out.
However, you also have to watch out for security guards/cameras and make sure you don't get caught (by default when two or more other players can see you), otherwise you'll be fined and put in jail for x seconds.
You must also tend to normal needs (ie eat, sleep, toilet, etc) all of which render you vulnerable for 5 or so seconds.

Quite a fun game, imo.

Sounds interesting.. but like most other source engine steam only games its very hard for people who don't already have it to join in (which would really limit how many people join)

which is one of the reasons why I suggested it as a fun-comp.

I do have a shareable copy though. wink.gif

and wtf. How did I type shit. 't' and 'p' aren't even close to each other... *sigh*
