Title: [HLP] Clans?
Post by: KappaWing on February 22, 2006, 02:30:52 pm
Are there any known Hard Light Productions clans out there for online games (besides freespace)?

There is no such clan for FS either. :p

Interesting idea though. I might join in if something is set up for any of the UT games.

There have, at various times, been Freelancer and EvE clans, but they all died pretty quick deaths.

The HLPeople don't like each other enough to form clans. It's more a discussion forum than a real community. Warpstorm, on the other hand....

SGAM probably takes default HLP EVE clan. We're almost all members one way or another.

I used the [HLP] tag in MW4 a while back, with the logo as the squad insignia.

Aye, the SectorGame EvE corp is pretty good. :)

Don't know of any HLP or [other] in World of Warcraft though.
I occasionally venture into CS:S when I have a few drinks, never really bothered with clans though.
A HLP or [other] Halo2 clan would be cool though. I've been going clanless in Halo2 for a while now because I don't really play all that often. (due to Oceanic lag >..> )
But yeah, would at least be nice to pick a few gamer tags up. :)

I'd be up for an Unreal (say URT2004 ?) clan...

i got bored with bf2, mainly thanks to d2xxl. i dont think i play anything else online much anymore. i could handel a mech pretty well, but mw4 has crappy joystick support and wont work with my sitek x52 wthout extensive profile editing. id play freespace more if muti worked better. the only clan i considered joining was for q3a awhile back, but i quickly became bored with the game.

HLP international clan would be cool.

Thing is, if we started a clain in a game, we might have to host a server too. Otherwise, all anyone'll ever know is the tag HLP. Happy Land Players? Hell's Legendary Pillagers? Of course we could say Hard Light Productions, that is assuming anyone asks, then there's the explanation of what it is.. on second thought, I think I'd just let them wonder.

Well, the Sectorgame Corp on Eve has quite a few familiar faces on it, and WS pretty much has the WoW angle covered. anyone deciding to try out Eve is always welcome to come along to Renyn and say hi :)

Besides, any mission undertaken by a HardLight clan would end up as a TKFest ;) hehehe

I take it FS and FS2 doesn't do well with clans just by the nature of the game.

More like the Nature of the people. I wouldn't say we dislike each other as such, it's just that we are like cats, solitary hunters.

There have been clans in the past, but until a solid, universally accepted multiplayer option is back into Freespace Open, I don't think you will see any more arising.

Heh, [HLP] Clan, the only RTS clan with each of it's members on different teams :D

Well... There's still an HLP guild on Guild Wars. I realize that with an international community like this it's pretty much impossible to have a real competitive kind of guild. I just thought it would be fun for casual players from HLP (like myself) to have capes and a little tag next to their name. If anyone cares, my dude ingame is named David Hawk. You'd probably have a better chance of getting in by PMing me rather than trying to find me ingame, though. :P

Guild Wars was another MMORPG I was considering getting...

I shall wait till I have a new computer, more money, and holidays. No more games! ><

Multiplayer. Its been a while sence iv heard Mulitplayer being in conjunction with Freespace2.
Who killed FS2 mulit? PXO? Dam them. "oops we droped it." "nah its ok, we wont sue you, we actualy appreciate it. Heres another 20 bucks"

Any word on progress of a SCP Multiplayer recently?

Multiplayer works using FS2NetD. It's just that we're in a cycle of there being no games cause of people never play cause there are no games when they check.
