Prepare for Summer LAN Party: Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
Posted on Friday July 26, 2024

The first game to show up in our schedule of events for our summer LAN party taking place Friday August 9 to Monday August 12 is Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. The plan is for this game to be played on Friday night around 7:00 PM Eastern. If you do not already have the game in your STEAM library, it is still completely FREE AND PLAYABLE even though Counter-Strike 2 has now taken precedence. We will be playing CS2 on Saturday night. In your STEAM library, right-click on Counter-Strike 2 in the list of games on the left and choose Properties. In the left menu of the window that pops up, choose Betas and then use the drop-down menu on the right next to Beta Participation to choose csgo_legacy - Legacy version of CS:GO. Once you do that, it will update your install of CS2 to allow you to play CSGO. When you click the game in the list on the left of your library, it will pop up a window that gives you a choice between playing CS2 or CSGO. From there, the game should function just as it did previously including restoring your config saved to the cloud. If you never deleted CSGO (only upgraded to CS2), you should also still have all the custom maps installed. If not, any maps that are not included with the game will be downloaded from the server automatically when connected, or if you want to make sure that you have all of the maps ahead of time, you can download them from here and extract them to the STEAM\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo\maps folder. You can download CS2/CSGO here:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/730/CounterStrike_2/

 

If all goes according to plan, we plan to have a LAN server (called [OSF] LAN party) that players from the internet will be able to join which we will advertise the IP address for on Discord. There is in-game chat for this game to use for team-oriented coordination, but we will use the Discord lobby and STEAM friends to coordinate and socialize. Whether you are at the LAN party in person or connecting remotely, you will have to join the server from the external STEAM game server browser and not the internal CSGO browser which will not work. On the top of the STEAM window, choose View -> Game Servers.  The game server browser will pop up.  From the LAN, you can join from the LAN tab of the external game server browser. From remote, you will have to add the IP address and port that gets posted to the favorites tab. Before you join the server, make sure that you have the game running then alt-tab out to use the external browser. The server will have our usual password, foliage, to keep it private.

 


Prepare for Summer LAN Party: Discord
Posted on Thursday July 25, 2024

Hard to believe, but there are only two weeks to go until our 2024 summer LAN party, taking place Friday August 9 to Monday August 12, kicks off! By now, most of you have installed Discord and connected to our server, but if not, make sure that you are ready using the directions at the link below. We will use the Lobby channel on Discord as a supplement to any built-in voice communication for games to coordinate, communicate, and have a good time. All members and friends are welcome to join in. Members can invite friends and family from Discord to join our server (or use the Discord server invite link from Member links at the top menu of the forums). Our game servers will be available to the internet for anyone to play remotely who cannot be there in person. More news posts will follow each day until the LAN party with reminders about the schedule and particular games that will be played during the LAN party, so prepare to be prepared!

Sea of Thieves is a PC and Xbox One action/adventure game that allows cross play between the two where you form a crew of up to 4 and sail around looking for treasure and having other adventures. If we have more than 4, we will split into several crews. We will make a attempts to match on the same server together with multiple ships at the start, so try to be there on time for this purpose.  In order to maximize our odds of getting more than one ship on the same server, please download the Fleet Creator and Windscribe VPN client, sign up for a free account with both, and have them installed and ready to use for these nights.  Fleet Creator allows us to see if we connected to the same server easier.  Our private lobby uses this code: xKeYI6pWPPdwAV18.  Windscribe aids in getting us on the same network and is easy to use and gives you 10 GBs of free data each month.

 

Make sure to check the game on the Microsoft store app prior to community night to see if there is an update that needs to be downloaded/installed by the store app!  Also, if you buy the game through the Microsoft store on either the PC or Xbox, you can install and play it on both the PC and Xbox One simultaneously. You can try it for a month for $1. See below.

SoT Community Night, Wednesday June 5 @ 8:30 PM Eastern

Sea of Thieves is a PC and Xbox One action/adventure game that allows cross play between the two where you form a crew of up to 4 and sail around looking for treasure and having other adventures. If we have more than 4, we will split into several crews. We will make a attempts to match on the same server together with multiple ships at the start, so try to be there on time for this purpose.  In order to maximize our odds of getting more than one ship on the same server, please download the Fleet Creator and Windscribe VPN client, sign up for a free account with both, and have them installed and ready to use for these nights.  Fleet Creator allows us to see if we connected to the same server easier.  Our private lobby uses this code: xKeYI6pWPPdwAV18.  Windscribe aids in getting us on the same network and is easy to use and gives you 10 GBs of free data each month.

 

Make sure to check the game on the Microsoft store app prior to community night to see if there is an update that needs to be downloaded/installed by the store app!  Also, if you buy the game through the Microsoft store on either the PC or Xbox, you can install and play it on both the PC and Xbox One simultaneously. You can try it for a month for $1. See below.

Below is a reminder of where we are in our quest to complete all of the campaigns on Expert mode. The bolded campaigns are the completed ones on expert, the ones with asterisks have been beaten on expert since the latest update tweaked the difficulty, and the red one is the one that we played most recently. There is an achievement for surviving all of the official Left 4 Dead 2 campaigns on expert if you have not done that yet. We will be starting this time with The Passing. Make sure to have all of the custom maps installed using the instructions found here.
