Hello,

Just a quick question really.

Does anyone know any decent free multiplayer games worth playing?

Something chilled or something.

Like The Hunter Game (beautiful crashes hunting animals... Like deer hunter just more updated... Also not multiplayer or coop)

Anything like that or little different I am after.

I do not want some FPS game fast paced or anything that has already been done. Looking for something chilled I geuss.

Thank you!

Soldat is a fairly old 2D shooter game that's loads of fun without having to be all hardcore. When a room gets loaded up with lots of people it can get really funny.

I think I owned that a very long time ago... I think lol

Rings a bell though.

Planetside 2? Oh wait, no FPS games. Darn it. READ MONKEY READ.

Global Agenda?
Alien Swarm? (Steam)

Lol.

I do not mind an fps game just nlt what I am looking for but if you know a chilled one ill give it ago.

Planet side 2 was added to steam yesterday. Installed, played 24mimutes and removed. Boring I thought.

Okay yeah, the free MP game market is, afaik, mostly shooters.

MMO RPG's we could go on for hours, but my guess is that's not exactly what you're looking for.

Well there's obviously Minecraft. Maybe Age of Empires Online, Tribes Ascend (FPS), Blacklight Retribution (FPS).
Gosh, harder to name a few than expected, other than shooters.

Yeah I know what you mean and I have played all the games you have listed lol.

Just looking for something different that is all.

Like the hunter game.... Brilliant chilled out game and would be amazing if you could play with a friend and hunt together I think..

I will give anything a look if I've not tried it. Builders, shooters, etc

If none free then what about a buy game. Does not have to be new or old but has to have multiplayer or coop with it. Want to play with a friend.

Was playing some transport tycoon with a friend, fun for little while but a short lived game lol.

I was going to Suggest Borderlands or Borderlands 2....but I will caution you...if you decide to each play differing character types....one or both of you might pick ones that are not as much fun for you....as each character type is different in how it plays...and the games are not that long.

I wont suggest Diablo 3....becasue it gets repetitve and has some character class issues with abilities and team play and such....as in some classes are simply more survivable then the others....they didnt do a very good job on balance.

um.....guess you could try Saint Row the Third...its on sale right now on steam for like 75% off....you can get the complete package version and have tons of stuff to do....heck i didnt even bother doing the main story arc at first and just went around the city buying things and having fun then decided after leveling a bit to do the main arc....which is fun as well.

I was going to say also Champions or Jade Dynasty or STar Trek Online....which are all free to play now....no level limits..but these games are interesting as in even though you can play with others...its weird but some of the the stuff just doesnt work well as a team....yet alot of other stuff its the only way to play....

Jade Dynasty will feel a bit grindy though.....Star Trek Online....well there is so much to do...its a bit overwhelming and I have played it alot.....and Champions is getting a bit overwhelming too....becasue they redid so many things...changed alot of other things and added a heck of alot of stuff...

Its strange but alot of games seam to focus on single player only....with co-op content being short or badly done on the non-mmo....to a point that if they say they have multiplayer they mean PVP action only....

Dont get me wrong....thats sometimes alot of fun....but gets very boring and repetitive....also games that force you in a linear path are not much fun either in my opinion....thus the reason i dont like HALO 4 as much because they dont have the Firefight mode anymore...instead they give you more story arcs which are super linear....I really missing just shooting stuff.
