which games are people playing these days online the most ?

is it still Call of Duty ?

 

My most played online game would be Battlefield 3, but its also the game i play the least atm.

 

Hooked on Skyrim atm

 

When im home for the weekends, i tend to either play BF3 or MW3...

 

Starcraft 2! only game I play every day, if only for an hour or 2 (cept weekends, I play more then xD)

 

some tf2 still every now and then, its half bf3 but i suck at it and the other half is mw3 which im pretty good at. i wish i could be better on bf3 my brothers are beasts on bf3 ps3.

 

Team fortress 2 for me. That's about it.

 

Team Fortress 2 and Minecraft.

 

I play Dota 2. sometimes TF2 and SC2

 

League of Legends & DC Universe Online

 

SC2 every once in a while. Too tired after my shifts.

 

I'm trying to figure that out as I got 25 bux gift card for target that I can burn on a game, but I prefer one that many people play it online, so that it would be fun for quite some time.

is there an older game that people still play a lot ? .... like COD:MW2, or battlefield 2, or something like that ?

I believe I can play pretty much anything at 1024x768 as my GPU while small is still at 55% overclock

I usually play Unreal Tournament 3, but we can barely fill one server (of 24) per night. I guess other people play it during the day from Europe, but it doesn't fit my time.

 

A bit of TF2. Hard to fit in or justify time between school, research, and hospital work.

 

For me it's mainly L4D2 Rooftop Scav 116.3hrs in the past 2 weeks according to Steam and overall 1716.4hrs played. And once in a while a little bit of KillingFloor

 

Original Dota. Nuff Said!

 

League of Legends and some indies steam games (revenge of titans, super meat boy, etc)

 

Online games.... well I haven't been online much, but once in a whiiile I would get on SC2, Guild Wars, or Shogun 2 coop campaign(I do play single player a lot tho). I'm busy with Skyrim at the moment so no online for me lol.

 

Battlefield 3

 

SW: TOR

online: dota 2
offline: Skyrim

pretty much it...

 

SWTOR & Skyrim

 

TF2 is really the only multiplayer game I play these days.

 

Can we play skyrim online??
I was planning to buy it

 

Single player only.

 

TF2? Oh you mean World of Fortress Craft 2

I remember actual TF2 before it went free to play and became loot driven and only relied on skill.

 

If I wasn't so busy smithing iron daggers in Whiterun, then I would be playing BF3.

 

I haven't played TF2 in a while so this is new to me. Are some weapons overpowered and easy mode or something?

I know they added a lot of vanity items and a couple sets of new weapons.

 

Seems like it to me, im sure others will disagree but some weapons feel clearly more powerful and "cheap" and as a person that only stops in to play now and then the playing field no longer feels level and has turned what used to be one of the greatest arena combat games into a MMO grind.

 

have people forgotten WoW? 11 million players online as of now!

 

The new pyro flamethrower takes W+M1 to a new level. Air blast is completely removed and replaced instead by a crit boost function. I think I might just go on vanilla servers from now on.

 

It probably depends on what kind of game you are looking for:

Shooter? BF3 and MF3
RPG: Still Wow or Single Player Skyrim

and so on, most choices were already named here.

 

Wow, doesn't sound like the most appealing to square off against. Good thing there are still vanilla servers though

 

lolwut. How much time have you actually spent playing? TF2 has an abundance of new items, sure, but you're not missing out if you don't have any of them. I guarantee anyone can do just as well with a 100% vanilla loadout as they would be able to with any unlockable. I very rarely use any non-stock weapons, and one of them is a reskin of the stock minigun. Ask any competitive-level TF2 player, and they will tell you that stock weapons, or unlocks that don't differ from stock too greatly, are the best overall.

I'm not saying it's perfect; there are a few weapons that could use tweaking, but historically speaking Valve has been good about patching balance issues. Overall, they've done a good job of avoiding a pay-to-win scenario in TF2.

Besides, it's not like weapons are exactly difficult to come by. You get them randomly dropped every so often, and you can craft them into different ones if you don't like what you get. Or you can trade with other players, or just buy it outright for 99 cents.

 

Makes me want to get back into tf2 lol.

Anyway swtor and sc2 for online. Skyrim for single player jollies.

 

Single: Skyrim
Multi: NBA 2K12

 

If the Skyrim MMO mod ever matures, that would be epic.

 

That would be epic indeed, but there are actually so many things that would need to be added, corrected, limited in order for it to be a fully functional online game. The result would probably be too chopped to bits to be enjoyable.

A good example of this would be Oblivion's multiplayer mod.

 

WoW FTL

Been getting back into Arma II mp

 

Yes and no. Valve does eventually get round to patching poorly balenced weapons, but it usually takes them a good few months to get round to it (look at the enforcer, still OP and released a few months ago). The problem is that they don't play test the weapons enough. They also seem to be going to way of replacing weapons with gradually more powerfull ones (eg stock bonesaw vs solemn vow) to get people to buy them. Then there's also the fact that it's quickly becoming solo fortress 2 rather than team fortress 2 with the new weapon styles coming out (eg things like how a pyro is no longer viable round an engie nest).

TF2 is still a great game, I would just prefer it if it stayed team focused and to the point rather than wasting time with things like hats. However they do release a few good weapons every now and then and make sense (for example the jag, while a little pointless in most scenarios, will let an engie do engie things slightly more easily while at the same time he still has to rely on other players. Compare this to the new engie primary which essentially means he can deal with spies and ubers on his own).

 

Yup! I hate it too! but it's a fact!

 

so I've been checking youtube videos of the games that you all posted here, and so far:

- skyrim: not really online play I guess, therefore so so
- Dota 2: kinda like WoW, so somewhat mehh
- Star Craft 2: - seems ok but I would prefer C&C like 5:1 against this one.
- Team Fortress 2: - now you're talking Game seems lots of fun to play online, will have to check it out further. Most likely will try to get it as well.

is there anybody that would suggest Enemy Territory: Quake Wars ?

P.S. I'm not really into army type games so CoD and BF will be ruled out.

EDIT: --- is there something that I'm missing or TF2 is free to download and play online ? ... omg ?!?!?!! ... all over it right now

EDIT2: can not seem to be able to find where to download it for free, rather than the steam thingy that I dont have .. any help ?

 

Recently, been on a RPG craze. Skyrim, WOW and SWOTR - granted I hardly get 8-10 hours of gaming in one week. Good times!!

 

Yep, TF2 has been free-to-play for several months now.

You do need a Steam account to play, and the game is downloaded and launched via the Steam client, but that's all free. Just register and download Steam at Welcome to Steam

 

Doom 3....

 

Is that the co-op mod you're talking about? I've heard very good things about it.

I personally am playing a lot of BF3. Keep trying to find the time to activate my 30 day trial for EVE Online. Just can't find the time I need from work. BF3 is so convenient for a quick play when I can spare an hour or two.

 

Well, considering I am stuck on it, Lord of the Rings Online. It is also Free 2 Play for anyone who doesn't know that.

 

The old Republic - 1-2 hours every other day or so.
Battlefield 3 - 2-4 hours on the weekend.

Is it me or does it seem as I get older I am not as much enthusiastic or full of excitement when going to play a game as I used to. I also find myself having to play with friends or I get bored/dis-interested very quickly. I'm only 22 >.>

 

Dota 2 is nothing like WoW...

 

NBA 2K12 and Madden 12.

*EDIT* I don't really play these online but...They're currently the games I play the most.
