There are a bunch of us here who play on steam. Just that with it being x-mas I don't think many people are around, they are doing things with family.
Me on ther other hand, I haven't been in a gaming mood for a little while.

I ONLY play on STEAM since my changeover. I search for servers and only get about 9 or 10
and I just pick the lowest pinger with people playing DM or DM2.

I think the best way to put it, pg, is that most of us didn't play on steam in the first place because it SUCKS for ricochet.
does anyone play on steam anymore - Guest - 12-29-2003
I am slowly, and I mean SLOWLY getting used to the lag for Ricochet when you bounce. These days I just react as if I did ok, though sometimes the visual effect is distracting and only laggy servers it really does suck ass. That said, for other games, you don't notice it at all, which I find rather strange.
They should fix it up, but something tells me they won't.

who's got rico on steam again? FreeFall has rico on steam again. . . boo ya

I've got rico on steam..Steam is the way of the future..I love it:D
does anyone play on steam anymore - PuNkGirL - 12-30-2003
Ya'll DO realize that EVENTUALLY (I say that with a grain of salt since when i got back both cz and hl2 were susposed to be out) won will be shut down right?
does anyone play on steam anymore - PIX - 12-30-2003
I'm stickin with STEAM pg. When WON shuts down....they will all come running.

We all know that. It's not a problem for me since I have Steam and Won running so I can play on any server. Some just don't like Rico on Steam so that is why most of us play on the Won side.
HL and it's mods bore me now anyway for the most part although I am looking into Sven Co-op for a change.
does anyone play on steam anymore - Guest - 12-30-2003
WON is the way to go for Rico as it don't look like there are gonna be many changes in the future. The lag that you get when you bounce on Steam is unacceptable.
does anyone play on steam anymore - RushJet1 - 12-30-2003
Also the fact that you don't hear yourself bounce, that's really annoying too...
does anyone play on steam anymore - PuNkGirL - 12-30-2003
but its just something to get used to, think of it like you are learning a new game, you have to overcome the difficulties and deal with the nuisances
does anyone play on steam anymore - kermit - 12-30-2003
bah....i don't know. isn't that what we did with this game to begin with?
it's hard for me to say if i'll be playing ricochet once won closes.
does anyone play on steam anymore - Guest - 12-31-2003
I disagree with that statement. It's not like learning a new game. It's like taking a good game and making it crap. New people trying to learn moves will find that lag and lack of sound acceptable but won't experiment that much as it can be difficult to overcome.
I put up with it, because I can react reasonably as if it wasn't there, but it still catches me out. Imagine if you were trying to master those moves like we all did that first time... it just isn't the same.
does anyone play on steam anymore - [CAKE]anonymity - 12-31-2003
It would bevery difficult to dodge a higher skill level oppenents shots as well, less time to react to it. It wasn't that bad playing on steam, I played quick on the second round of the tournament. We just had to keep our distance because of the lag jumps. So i'll probably end up playing on steam, and really put the effort into getting used to the jumps.
does anyone play on steam anymore - PuNkGirL - 12-31-2003
hmmm apperently steam really did kill rc... I can count the number of ppl who actually play on steam on one hand.... Shit I hope the next generation of rc'ers get better quick cause you old fogies can't seem to adapt to change.
does anyone play on steam anymore - Guest - 01-01-2004
Oh we're adapting, problem is we can see newbies won't :-P They'll think that all the servers for RC are laggy and bugger off to play on CS or something.
does anyone play on steam anymore - [CAKE]anonymity - 01-01-2004
I saw wall mart security on last night, and he came back from steam. A lot of people are going back to WON rico, you should really consider it pG.
does anyone play on steam anymore - g-boy - 01-01-2004
Let me reiterate something... I'm not saying, nor is anyone else, that I'm denying the fact that won will be shut down and I'll be forced into steam. But as long as WON is still up, THAT is where I'm playing because it's better, I'm used to it, and I have more fun. When I'm forced into steam, then I'll probably play, albeit less often. The response I expect is "then you should be getting used to it now to prepare." Not really... I'll adapt when I need to, and I doubt it'll take THAT long. And if it does, then oh well, I'll deal.

I played a good deal of Steam counter-strike with frito and I actually thought it was rather novel. Being able to follow your friends into games, and play virtual chess. Wee! But, for some reason, it wont accept my cd-key anymore so I cant play it until i figure out what the fudge is wrong with it:(.
