I want some people to play with on GameSpy, for BG2. Not alot of people play... My account name on gamespy is: Intoll

ElvenBeserk

Harkoliar 03-04-2005 07:24 AM

i was thinking the same thing a few days back.. [img]smile.gif[/img]

But.. we should seriously make some rules first about levels char etc..

i will have my blade bard ready. best in support for fighter/mage

and of course the time.. but i have to spend a little on NWN and everquest 2 heh. ill try to find the time for this one [img]smile.gif[/img]

Q'alooaith 03-04-2005 08:19 AM

If you've got ToB look up Kairsqua..

Got a fighter/Necromancer that I enjoy somtimes, 8/9 currently I think.

Got little Yolo, the Cleric of helm, starting XP only.

Also got a slew of other chars, not many above tenth level though.

ElvenBeserk 03-05-2005 03:02 AM

Kool, i have a level 10 conjurer.

Harkoliar 03-05-2005 08:46 AM

i have another suggestion i would like to make here in the boards. i would like to suggest to form a dedicated group and connect not via gamespy but using IP address which is possible. This is more private and chances are that people will not stumble into the gameplay.

what i suggest is to start a group from level 1 in bg2 all the way to tob. mods may be added but requiring all the groups consent. rules may be added later (ie: such as death in the group and cannot ressurect right away).

i do suggest to start the game sometime end of march so that people may see this thread. this is only an idea. and people who may be interested. pls post here [img]smile.gif[/img]


i dont mind starting from a lvl 1 bard [img]smile.gif[/img]

Q'alooaith 03-05-2005 09:08 AM

You mean lvl 1 as in alter the game starting level's so everyone starts at 1 XP's and 1 level?

Good idea, I always like fighting hard out of CI..


Or do you mean 98000 XP's?

either way's good..

I'd suggest a one character per player, NPC's allowed but they count towards that limit..


I'd say connect through Gamespy, but password the game, the people can't just join.

Harkoliar 03-05-2005 09:44 AM

err i meant the beginner level in Irenicous dungeon which is lvl 6 at the beginning right?

we could use SK to start lvl 1.. although kinda suicidale heh.

password would be nice as well.

so we would have to arrange the sessions times.. and post it all in advance so people can arrange thier own schedule properly.

i say at least 3 hours per game session. every 2 weeks (or 1 week) making them looking forward to play. additional sessions may be added provided everyone can make it. i would prefer a group of 4 so that 2 npc can give the group additional quest. but a group of 5 or 6 is fine just as well.

Q'alooaith 03-05-2005 11:06 AM

98000 XP is what you start with if you roll a new char at the start.

Harkoliar 03-05-2005 07:49 PM

its been ages since ive played bg2. so with the new mods. it will be very interesting for me :D .

smeagol420 03-07-2005 02:54 AM

Id love to join a BG party but Ive only been through about half of the game, still consider me though, ill play any class but would like to go cleric or fighter.

BlackPeter 03-07-2005 04:14 AM

sounds like a great idea count me in plz
i dont care what class to play just let me know whats needed

Harkoliar 03-07-2005 07:48 AM

I guess that is 4 in the group. :D .

smeagol you would be perfect for cleric or cleric/fighter if you would prefer

blackpeter- what class is your favorite?

me being a bard is perfect mage/fighter support (plus lore)

Q can be the mage/fighter if he wants

all we need now,to be honest,is a thief [img]tongue.gif[/img]

please do post your time code in GMT format for example:
sydney australia- GMT+10

end of march is ok for everyone to start in? this has to be a dedicated team for session times of 2-3 hours per session (its not much while playing BG to be honest. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

dynimite 03-07-2005 10:09 AM

ive been playing for a cuple years now...new to this place but i'll join up soon

smeagol420 03-07-2005 01:38 PM

sweet I can't wait, but what time of day? I live in new york so Im not sure what time is good for eveeyone else. I like to play at night mostly and 2-3 hours is no problem

ElvenBeserk 03-07-2005 06:16 PM

K, ummm.... lets use Game spy for the time being, or unless you have a better idea. We only use the Characters we Make when we all play, not any other time. It will upset the ballencs of the game....lol. I can make a site easily for us, like for news and stuff like that. I can just subdomain, or backslash my site. So, if you wanna join up, reply here, post where you live(like wat timezone so we can all cordinate when to play), what your gonna make your Character(If you can, go ahead and make it, and put everything about your Character, like the Strength, Class, ext. Also post when you can play. I can play mostly on weekends, and after school on weekdays sometimes. I pull all nighters every friday(starting at 12 midnight) so Im open every Friday Night. Sooooo, if you wanna join, reply here with the information I just asked for... Thankz.

ElvenBeserk
P.s. My Name on GameSpy is Intoll.

Q'alooaith 03-07-2005 08:16 PM

UK here..

So that's GMT, I can do pretty much do staturdays, and some fridays..

Though don't ask for fridays please, I hate the club scence but the company is good.

I'll have to redo my Fighter/Necro a lill bit so it conforms to 98000 total XPs.

Harkoliar 03-07-2005 08:25 PM

welcome to iw dynamite [img]smile.gif[/img] glad you can join us.

so i guess in total it would make us 6 (if dyanamite wants to play)

like EB (elvenbeserk says) we have to organize our times so that we can all play. i can only do saterday/sunday so it can be roughly saterday morning if i want to play with EB.

my GMT for australia sydney is +10

edit:
character will be a bard blade perfect for lore, fighter/mage support

unless you want me to play weimer version of shapeshifter which is fine with me :D .

although its kinda overpowered but we can tone it down with rules for me to follow..
for example: cannot cast spells while shapeshifted and can only shapeshift once or twice a day(rest) greaterwerewolf, while werewolf shape is only 10x a day (rest) possible. but of course i dont mine playing bard or this :D .

Dace De'Briago 03-07-2005 08:56 PM

Does the network play actually function under Tutu?

Harkoliar 03-07-2005 09:09 PM

i guess we are going to find out when we do it :D

smeagol420 03-07-2005 10:47 PM

Im not sure how to log on to gamespy, do I have to sidn up or anything like that? I will create a cleric for now and post his stats and such..

Dace De'Briago 03-07-2005 11:19 PM

lol, give me a week or two and I'll post a thread recruiting people for an online game with me :D

It'll be a runthrough using Tutu and some carefully selected mods (not many!!!) through the entire BG series.

If anyone is interested, PM me and I'll send you the details. We are looking at a date around the 19th to start.

dynimite 03-07-2005 11:48 PM

ElvenBeserk 03-08-2005 04:53 AM

Kool, looks like were gonna do good. We gotta choose a time that will work for us all... how about mountain time? GMT -07:00. Its 4:44 over here in the East Coast,(using east coast time). Im gonna use a Wizzard Slayer, cause no one else has put down a true killing mean machine LOL... k. Also, how are we gonna keep contact so we know what time to play next?

ElvenBeserk

Harkoliar 03-08-2005 06:53 AM

i do suggest weekly game time. so no hassles and everyone can more or less make time for it. (unless its really really important to move it to another date which they can more or less announced a week before)

ElvenBeserk 03-08-2005 07:22 AM

But Wat time? lol

ElvenBeserk 03-08-2005 07:50 AM

K, we are gonna have a site for this. I can subdomain my domain. So, what should we call this group? We could turn this into a clan too. Please post names for our Group!!!
I have one, not that good tho:
Celistial Warriors

ElvenBeserk

Harkoliar 03-08-2005 08:06 AM

based from the thread

EB- GMT -8
Q- GMT 0
Tim and me - GMT +10

Since Q is free on sat and EB on friday night, we can follow your times.
-12 or 1 am friday for EB
-8-9am for Q
-6-7pm here in australia.

the playing time per session is 3 hours so I do hope you can stay awake EB [img]tongue.gif[/img]

edit: is everyone ok with this?

mate, no need to go overboard with this idea [img]tongue.gif[/img] . we are just forming a group of dedicated players for bg 2 all the way to TOB. (mods included if possible). no need for a clan or anything I reckon [img]smile.gif[/img] . a journal of our adventures would be interesting but thats only an idea.

silencer 03-08-2005 09:53 AM

Not sure if this party is full or not, but something like this would definitely re-spark my interest in this game again ;)

(Someone could always start another group ...)

That said, listing planned proficiencies as well as class[es] would be immensely helpful due to weapon arrangements. I'd have fun playing a thief, myself (though I'd prefer having the option of dual-classing from a weak fighter).

Also GMT -8 here as well [img]smile.gif[/img] I can pull anything on Fridays that are mid-afternoon or late at night (10-11+), or afternoon/evening on weekends.

dynimite 03-08-2005 09:59 AM

so if we dont have thw same mods as each other we'd have to get them wouldnt we???

I would be more than happy to do a multiplayer game myself. I have had the game for a few years but never have done that. My problem is that I can't do anything until this semester is up and I have graduated.

If anyone is interested in a multiplayer game in the near future (end of May), I would like to join the group.

BlackPeter 03-08-2005 12:51 PM

well doesnt sound like theres much healing so i suppose ill go for a cleric, maybe start as berserker and dual? have to do it low i imagine to get any healing early on. not sure what time i have vs gmt, id guess gmt - 9 or so? im in pst, so there ya go. spose i maybe could multi, i like to dual more though, it seems more effective than multi... although... multi mage cleric maybe... lemme know which sounds more useful to what we already have i guess.

ElvenBeserk 03-08-2005 05:14 PM

K, call out what day and what time you all can be on.

Q'alooaith 03-08-2005 07:39 PM

I'm ok with them times..

I'd suggest Ascention (sp?) for the ToB segment, it's pretty good..

Nothing other than that..

I can make my char anything.. Depending on what the group needs..


I've got a Fighter/Necromancer About 8 level's of fighter, though so might be over the limit..(human dual) Alyia

Got a LN cleric of helm. (Human single class) Yolo

I've got a Swashbuckler(10)/Cleric(1) which you'll note is 161000 XP's cause of TotSC.. (human dual) Yashia


I've been tempted by the idea of a druid for a while, in fact the only class I don't like playing is probably the mage/sorc and pure fighters..


One thing I would suggest, we all swap the portraits we're going to use before we start, that way we get a feel of the charactors...

Harkoliar 03-08-2005 09:00 PM

so are we going to start from scratch? It would be more fun and have to play all the way to TOB :D .

mods in my mind:
weimer ease of use (certain aspects only)

(the mod where the TOB monk character has a chance to become good) - forgot the name

additional mods for extra cool quest which i havent played

big mod (posted in another thread) we could use that.. has heaps of new stuff..

Harkoliar 03-08-2005 09:02 PM

oh btw.. im pretty much set for blade bard unless i get to play druid (shapeshifter ease of use with restricitons). or another mod that gives me an interesting druid class. (i will take a look on that)

dynimite 03-08-2005 10:47 PM

i can be on neday.... and on tuesdays i cant be on 5-8 -8GMT other than that im all about it

smeagol420 03-09-2005 12:26 AM
