Gaming re-investment

Hi guys,

Perhaps I'm feeling old but it's kinda overwhelming and sad for me to log on to an app like xfire to find it dead.. in contrast to older days I'd log in and find a bunch of people playing with at least one or two dudes up to play some games.. I suppose the above I've had coming as I never really embraced steam properly as halo was all I played..

I've been thinking a lot about this sites activity and while I can't say I'm done and going because [political debate involving uninteresting topics about site direction here] I want to say I would just like to try and build up a good few people to chat to and socialise with on Steam, if you paid attention to the pc building thread you may have seen I recently invested some cash into a powerful pc built for said subject..

Real life has been quite heavy with deaths, arguments, falling out, lack of communication from friends that aren't meant to disappear.. and the only escape for all this that has never failed me is a good video game..

What I want to ask and talk about is actually who still games quite actively and would like to get in touch to play? What games have captivated you like say perhaps custom edition did for us in earlier days before classic map cycles on custom edition? Throw over your steam ids/origin ids in this thread!

Most importantly I'm using honesty because well, I pretty much grew up with the gaming community initially around gearbox, then h2v [including biocroc/hiv forums] and know there's still people left here that want to play for the fun of playing a game.. I'm into battlefield these days.. more of a fps gamer than anything else!

Feel free to treat this thread as somewhat nostalgic similar to us celebrating the game that brought us all here but ultimately I'm looking to catch up and find out what people are up to, as well as playing with people other than mexicans(halo)/anon mutes(battlefield)

hope to hear back from y'all :)

edit:
i placed the thread here on the purpose of this being a more active segment of the forum despite there being a game section.. but if any active staff are about feel free to place it in the most active part as you see fit!

Much feels from your post. Add Conscars on steam.

There hasn't been any game that captivates me quite like Halo did. That might change next year with the release of space games such as Star Citizen and No Man's Sky (I'm looking forward to the latter more than the former). That being said, I do still game quite actively, with my most-played titles being DotA 2, War Thunder, Warframe, and the Battlefield series (I play BC2 and BF3 regularly). Most of my multiplayer consists of games like those, where I can just jump in and play a few rounds. I also do Payday 2 and Planetside 2 with greater-than-average frequency.

There haven't been any captivating single-player/co-operative experiences on the market in a long time.

Halo is definetly a game I've always liked to play, even (attemtped) played competively for a little with some old buddies like EvilLilElmo, Cass, Q-Pee etc (people you might know)

If you wanna hit me up and play some games in the future, let me know!
