Multiplayer Linux Games

gooshy1 writes "Ok it's getting near the end of the year and people are beginning to wind down for the holidays. What I want to know is are there any decent multiplayer games that an office of about 4-7 can play, preferably action. The machines that we use are not all that great, P4 1.7Ghz with 2 year old NVidia graphics cards, so Quake and the likes are out of the question. A favorite is BZFlag due to its playability and nice tunable graphics. All thoughts welcome, and Merry Chistmas/Happy Holidays :-)"

    I hate that dirty towel loving fuck. I'm happy he is gone. Thazt morally bankrupt crook, thief, towelhead. He was killed in a police action.

    That fucking sand nigger is married to a white woman - a blond no less. He has grandpa sex with her. Imagine his sand blasted withered sand nigger penis being slipped into her white puss.

    I hope his corpse is dragged trhough a pig sty with jewish rabbis shitting into the pen after eating rotten gefilte fish and then taking a holy piss on his corpse and then pigs eat him. And shit him out and the pig processed Yasir shit gets buried with pigs.

    That twoel head fuck, the loser commies of Europe, the EUROCRATS, gave this towel head who needs war to be in power, he said fuck you to Barak and Clinton when they offered to meet all of the Palestinian demands, and palestinians are inferior persons who should collectivly be used to far ORGANS for real people, those criminal heathen fucks who were kicked out of all the neighboring Arab countries before the jews came.

    Death to the ARA-FART legacy.

  2. The best Linux dis ever by brundlefly · · Score: 2, Troll

    This entire thread is the best (or worst, YMMV) Linux dis ever.

    The fact that somebody must ask Slashdot if there are any games that their office can play on decent hardware is, um how shall we say it, ouchie.

    Ya, ya, troll post. Don't bother flaming, I run Linux too.

    If by "ran just fine on windows" you mean "only gave me the blue screen of death every of couple of hours", then yes.

    Why trouble yourself running around in circles trying to find games that work under linux when you can run any of them under windows?

    I mean, if it's just for the holiday, bite the bullet. Windows, at the very least, is good for games.

    Some of our local favorites (from the FPS action catergory):

    Medal of Honor: allied assault
    Battlefield 1942
    Unreal Tournament
    Vietcong
    Halo

    As far as I know, only UT would run under Linux (natively). I say, use the right tool for the right job. Linux is not a good gaming solution.
