Let's play alien swarm![FREE]

[supersonic45]

Alien Swarm is a game that was originally a UT2k4 mod. Vavle hired them and the game switched to Source SDK. It's a Co-Op game where you fight swarms of aliens. The game also comes with 64 achivements. Best of all? Perfectly free. Comes July 19th.

Hopefully we can get some guys from SRB2 into playing it? :3

I think I remember playing a bit of the UT2K4 version (Single-Player only, and just a bit of the tutorial). It came with my UT2K4 Editor's Choice Edition DVD, with a bunch of other mods that were likely old versions and/or were a bit... unfinished.

I'm sort of impressed that they got such a good-looking game with the Source Engine. Also, Monday is not coming soon enough.

Saw Topic, thought Ben 10.

I'll be sure to get this Monday, since I do plan to work with the Open SDK it provides. =D
...I just hope my computer can handle it

Valve releasing Source SDK to the public for free? That's a first. Downloading for sure.

[OFFTOPIC]Anyone interested in starting an SRB2 Steam group?[/OFFTOPIC]

EDIT: Crap, it's only for Alien Swarm.
Ah well.

 

[Chaos Knux]

SRB2 already has a Steam group

 

[sims]

Why not provide him a link to it then?

Ok: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/SRB2

...Simsmagic's sentence was a link, Chaos Knux.

Honestly I can't tell links from normal text. I'm on Ocean.

I can, and I'm on Ocean too.

Underlined text is usually a link.

I'm trying to get some more people into playing this when it comes out tomorrow. I'll go on the IRC room and see if I can get some more people.

Would be more fun if this was 8 player co op online.

 

[Autosaver]

Its free, so I doubt it'll be too hard to find some people.

I'll probably download this when it comes out. TF2 and Portal are the only Steam games I have, sadly. I would like it if I got another game to add to the collection.

I don't know if it applies or if its really official.

 

[supersonic45]

It's official.(22 hours from now)

Valve Time is broken anyway. It's based off one event.

Several events.

 

[supersonic45]

And of course, the one time I trust Valve time to not take in effect, Valve Time hits.

2 hours from now.

 

[Blitzzo]

Apparently not, because it seems to have been delayed by a couple hours.
Woo Valve Time.

Edit: Jinx.

It's out and ready for download.

Gonna have to download this tommorow, it's going super slow.

The achivement "Hat trick" gives you a TF2 hat, too.
