So this week was a sale week for L4D2, and I've made it abundantly clear that I enjoy those weeks the best because it is when there is a whole slew of new players on the multiplayer servers which means easy pickins'. So this week I signed on for the first time in months and promptly joined any game that I could. And then promptly got my ass beat by a team of organized players while the three new players who were my teammates ran around and died. Then I realized, I had become the n00b again. I couldn't bear the sight of myself, I bid everyone adieu with an "also, cocks" and quit out and then went into training servers to get my groove back. A movie adaptation is coming out this Christmas with Whoopie Goldberg in it.
Big changes are in store for FNF, check the unaffiliated forums that are linked at the top of this page. I will also be building a Steam group this weekend to try and get more players in here, I didn't say this in my intro blog but I really would like to see this community grow. It's a free Civ: Beyond Earth weekend, we could all try to play that monstrosity.
New to Friday Night Fights? It's easy to get involved!
FIRST OFF, READ THIS
Every Friday the Dtoid community gets together to play games online! Friday Night Fights is run completely by the Destructoid community, so feel free to join in someone's game, or host a game yourself!
The planning for FNF starts here in the forums, where community members volunteer to host matches and post their pertinent details (game, time, Steam ID, etc.). Then, every Friday, remininder posts go up in the cblogs followed by a recap post in the front page for last-minute planning.
If you'd like to join a game, just contact the host of the game! If you'd like to host a game, post your details in the following format:
