Remember Defcon?

Let's play that. Right here, right now. I am lagged and can't host, but somebody start a game and post your IP if you're down. There's a free demo too on Steam for the uninitiated, you can play with full version owners.

    I don't remember how to play.

    It is really cool to look at though.

    Here's how you play.

    1. Aim at populated area.
    2. Fire nuclear missiles.
    3. Weep at what your wicked hands have wrought.
    4. Return to 1.

    It's like Tic-Tac-Toe. The only winning move is not to play.

    I've been playing with a group on the Something Awful forums, the thread is here and includes videos. Two of the videos are tutorials, but just about any of them are good for teaching tactics.

    I would play the demo. Game's not really worth $20.

    $9, but if you want to play the demo go for it, I think the only real limitation is that there can only be 2 demo players per game.

    Count me in. I have two copies of this game because I found them for $5 in Gamestop. I have the patches that came with them. I love this game. I suck at it.

    Because of this thread I just watched the movie Threads

    http://video.google.ca/videoplay?docid=-2023790698427111488&ei=Im4eSabgDqfYqAOnocmyBw&q=threads

    Because of this thread I am now depressed and had to go tell my wife that once nuclear war breaks out we are all dead and only the cops and government officials (some) will survive.

    I am sad.

    So I dragged a fellow PAer into playing the demo with me earlier today.

    And all he did what draw stuff on the whiteboard and tell me how hard he was going to nuke Spain over voice chat.

    The seemingly randomness in this game made me not buy it. Id have a silo right next to my target, and the freakin missle has to launch at an 80 degree angle, travel up to the arctic circle, then come down to hit. Whereas my opponent in a similar situation gets the 2 degree arc of death.


    That or Ill have 50 anti-air or whatever it was hit the enemy jet/nuke, and do nothing useful, and then one of the enemie's bullets destroys mine.
