CSS zombie

I play CounterStrike:Source MOD:zombie. This MOD is downloadable from zombie server if need, so no installation is needed before joining to zombie server.

There are some kind of zombie MOD. A half year ago, I had played other zombie MOD, in which, a player play both human and zombie. Human/zombie is killed, then respawn as zombie/human. Zombie has a lot of hit point but its weapon is only knife. Usually human player goes to high location such as top of house to prevent zombie's attack.

The zombie MOD I play today is little different. All zombies are BOTs. Since ombie has usual hit point, head shot is lethal for zombie. Some zombies don't have his head (:D)

Half-Life 2: Capture the Flag

Half-Life 2: Capture the Flag(HL2:CTF) is MOD of Half Life 2, and is released in its web site (http://hl2ctf.com/).

When I playes HL2:CTF, there are few player in public servers.

At first, I joined a server which latency was about 190 msec, I think the location of this server is United States. In this sever, there is only one other player, it means 1 on 1 match.

Next, I joined another sever which latency was more than 300 but several players joined. Although I was excited to play CTF, I was kicked because high ping.

Source Forts

Source Forts is MOD of Half Life 2, and is released in its web site (http://www.sourcefortsmod.com/).

At first I didn't know game rule, I learned it while playing. According to my understanding, Source Forts is CTF(capture the flag) type game and construction of base. At biginning of game, base is constructed with object, e.g. plate and box, with gravity gun. Then battle is started. In the base, there is star-like shape object, I think it is a flag. Player can choose his class from as scout, engineer, soldier, rocketeer or sniper. Every class has its own weapon.

When I played, the number of public server was about 10 and some players joined to several servers.

CounterStrike:Source

I sometimes play CounterStrike at a public server. Some servers apply custom map. Such a map is joyful even though it takes a long time to understand the structure of the map.

The following video is map:de_nightfever.

Alien Arena 2007

I tried Alien Arena 2007, which is released in http://red.planetarena.org/.

Alien Arena 2007 seems like sports-type FTP like Quake or Unreal. I am not so familiar with this type FTP, so this game is good for training.

Embedded video is single play, since there were few players in multi game.

Dynasty Warriors BB Benchmark

I tried Dynasty Warriors BB benchmark called sangoku musou BB benchmark in Japanese.



In normal graphic setting, the score of my PC is 2384. Koei, which is publisher of Dynasty Warriors BB, says that score falling within 2000 to 2999 indicates enough performance to play Dynasty Warriors BB.

In high graphic setting, my score is 1909, which indicates capable of playing but low performance.

CounterStrike:Source on 2006/9/15 midnight

I have played CounterStrike every friday midnight for few years among our team. Before CS:S was released, I had played CounterStricke:ConditionZero.



In our team, Battlefield2 is also played. So, my video is mainly for CS:S and BF2.

To capture video game, I use Fraps (http://www.fraps.com/). Fraps is very powerful tool, but Fraps video is very large. Although I set movie property to half-size, 1 minute video is about 1GB size. Usually, I have to convert Fraps video into small video in order to upload to YouTube. Microsoft MovieMaker is useful for this purpose.

Joint Operations:Typhoon Rising

Joint Operations:Typhoon Rising is modern FPS game, released by Novalogic in 2004. At that time, I often played this game. In JO:TR, 150 players can join to game. It was very exciting.

Because of some new games, I had not played JO:TR for an year. Today, I tried to play it again. Unfortunately, my account is expired so I must sing up again, and a server kicked me by Punk Buster, at last JO:TR running on my PC was down.

Although it was short time, about a half hour, I enjoyed playing.
