The game resulted in us, the marines winning. I managed to capture footage of us slaying the Alien's final hive. I find the game quite memorable due to it lasting a impressive 80 minutes as well as it being the first time I reached a in-game score of over 1000. This was also one of the very few times I have ever been on first place in the leader boards. Here is the footage:

    MCG had a 42 slot server for a while. It didnt stay up long. I think wooza's is great... in europe.

    42 player server, 80 min game. Sounds... like... fun...

    My favorite games are 12-14 player and 10-20 mins :blush:

    80min? *grabs cane*.
    In the old day, in ns1, we had matches lasting hours upon hours. Now get off my lawn.


    More serious... as long as you had fun. ^^
    But yeh, im with skyice on wanting a bit shorter matches and smaller teams these days.

    My first game of ns2 was a little over 8 hours. People who left in the first hour joined in the last hour to see the game win.

    Those games also happened in ns2 @Nordic?
    havent experienced that yet.
    Then again, less time then in my teens so I dont mind matches be shorter. :D

    I was in high school then and it was the weekend. It only lasted so long because we were all rookies and never attacked the chair or hive. This was in b208.

    I have not play a game over 90 minutes besides that one. I would not even have the patience for an 80 minute game now.

    Been quite a few games i have played - looked at the round time and was amazed that it has nearly past the hour mark.

    Have played some awesome rounds and had that 1 93 min round gB vs HBZ while back that was quite interesting to say the least,

    Some long rounds can be fun - as long as its back and forth.

    @DC_Darkling
    Back in the alpha/beta stages, there were certain builds where games lasting 2hrs+ were common, and when those builds came out I loved it, it was like NS all over again.

    However, the target was always a much shorter round time in NS2, so those builds were always soon 'corrected', much to my dismay :D

    @soul_rider
    heh, how much I loved long matches in ns1, I doubt I would have time for them now. Im happy its shorter now. :)

    But yes, it was a different experience to start playing somewhere in the morning, and have folk leave, and rejoin in the evening, in the SAME match.. madness. :P

    80 hours, childsplay! Back in my day, 2003 we played a round of NS (ns_hera, dual siege spot version) and it was only stopped when HL WON servers were taken offline in favor of Steam. Oh and new HL/NS patches, otherwise we'd still be playing that one round...

    I have to agree @kouji_san that some rounds in ns1 1.04 took ridiculously long. Fun fun, but so long.
    Even the longest ns2 matches ive seen do not compare in length. (Although im quite happy about that due to time)
