Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by aNILEator on 02-26-2008 at 08:49 PM

I just set up a group on Steam for Messenger Plus! Community Gamers :)

Any gamers are invited (Be it Team Fortress, Counter Strike, Day of Defeat or whatever) just somewhere for the gamers amongst us to group up and get fragging together, We can organize games, events, player of the week etc too blah blah blah.

If you can't find it by searching the steam community, point your browsers to:

Steam Group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/msgplus
Join Group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/msgplus?action=join

and from there you can join the group, add members as friends, enter the chat room or whatever.

Happy Gaming!

Want to become your countries officer? Can you organize servers and times for your fellow countrymen to play? Leave your comments in the thread :)

Since when?

You can still have demos and stuff, it's only the full games that will cost (unless gifted a game, or 'acquiring' it)

Get Steam Now: http://www.steampowered.com/v/index.php?area=getsteamnow&cc=GB

You have to download the client from here and create an account. Then, you will be able to join the group ;)




Btw, TF2 FTW! :D

See my previous post.

But really you should already have an account with some games on before attempting to join the community :P

We'll see how things go and then maybe get a weekly game organized for TF2 and CS or whatever proves popular :)
RE: Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by Basilis on 02-26-2008 at 09:23 PM

Ok. Thanks both Mike and aNILEator.

Damn right that server in Aus I joined earlier was well bad for me :'(
RE: Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by GiantSpider on 03-15-2008 at 04:40 PM

I would join if I could remember my bloody login.


RE: Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by Shiny Rabbit on 03-19-2008 at 07:52 PM

hell yeah, i'll be up for some CSS or half life 2 DM


RE: Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by aNILEator on 04-07-2008 at 03:09 AM

What dates are people free for a bit of a gaming session?

It seems most of us are in the UK. but if there is still a time slot where American users can join in then that's cool too


RE: RE: Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by kezz on 04-07-2008 at 09:56 AM

We'll have to get some Aussie gamers together...

BTW: do you people think we can have an admin from each 'area' of the world [uk, aus, us, asia etc] to organise events for each individual area so suitable servers for each are are used. I'd be happy to organise Australia

i think i would be good for the aus part mainly because i have my own clan atm so yea

but i think the different region stuff would be good...


RE: Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by vikke on 04-07-2008 at 02:41 PM

Counter-Strike 1.6, someone?


RE: Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by Eddie on 04-07-2008 at 03:52 PM

Joined up, will start with some games when my school holidays start (Y)


RE: Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by aNILEator on 04-08-2008 at 02:54 AM

Indeed, I don't mind setting certain people as group mods/admins on there either :)

My initial thoughts go towards Nanafreak as AUS Captain. But voting would be cool as well, or if NF doesn't want to be AUS Leader

-----------------------------------

I have now appointed Nanafreak as an Officer, he shares most of the permissions and  important parts for running the group. Nanafreak also informs me he can set you Aussies up with a server for free for a few hours of fragging time :)

Happy gaming Down under

Usually only on certain cracked servers, unless your acquired version is indistinguishable between a normally licensed version and maybe the servers you connect to aren't VAC protected.
RE: Play Steam Games? Join the Messenger Plus! Community Steam Group! by Eddie on 04-08-2008 at 03:01 AM

Depends where you 'acquire' it from, mine works online so -shrug-
