Creech Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Welcome to the x360a Community Cooperative Gaming forum! This forum will be used to pick a game of the week for x360a members to play together cooperatively. Note this is not a boosting session with a focus on achievements, but more a cooperative adventure to have fun and interact with other members of x360a. If achievements happen along the way, awesome! However, that is not the primary purpose. After a game is selected, there will be a thread where members can announce their intention to join in along with some times throughout the week for us to aim for. Staff will join in as we can, and I would like to figure out some nice shiny badges to go along with participating in these events. All of this is subject to change over time as we try different approaches and gather feedback from the community. Grif Edit: The focus has changed recently to include more than just Co-Op. We appreciate the feedback and look forward to hearing from our membership in the future.

Ceris Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Where did this idea come from? Either way, I like this idea! As long as we pick some games I own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmbaLaBamba Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I like this idea, it's always nice to have a break from achievement hunting and just do some gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceris Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Purple Hooter I believe is who suggested this. Well, then props to Purple Hooter. I do have one concern though: Isn't this stepping over the "Ambassador Gaming Nights" thing a bit? Sure, this is a full community thing, but one of the perks of being an Ambassador would to be able to play in their game nights. Or did I get the purpose wrong?

The ambassador ones are going to be a bit more structured I think, and are also restricted to members of the ambassador program. This is going to be a bit more casual.

TR0UBLE Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I like this idea, but hopefully people pick games I do own as Ceris said Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creech Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 With a different game every week, as long as you nominate yours then I am sure it will happen. I own over 300 titles, and I bet we still will pick ones that I don't own now and then. You don't have to play every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea true, I'm glad you came up with this idea creech would like to meet some x360a members outside of the forums and onto the gaming world of xbox live.

Foxxy kyle Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Creech you are like the greatest thing thats ever happened to this website.. That my attempt at being a kiss-ass, but we all know it is true I am a big fan of Call of Duty, I realize a lot of people on here do not like it, but a lot of my real life friends do not play CoD anymore and its never as much fun my myself. So I would like to play with some people I would know around here on Black Ops 2 or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metabolic XBA Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Nice idea, lucky there are like 6 Gamestops within spitting distance of me so I can switch up my pre-owned returns when games I don't have pop up lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spade. Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I'll grab whatever game gets chosen within my ability. A nice CoD / halo / BF would be and easy first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxxy kyle Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I'll grab whatever game gets chosen within my ability. A nice CoD / halo / BF would be and easy first. What would be fun would be getting together a Search and Destroy team for CoD. But many people on here are not CoD fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yunder Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 I remember a few years ago I played RDR with a full lobby, and we all went off to hunt bears. Using our hands. I'd love to see a full lobby of people for Red Dead Redemption again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creech Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Could some enterprising soul throw together a list of how many people can fit into a co-op session for each of these titles? I know BP is 8, Halo I think is 4. RDR is pretty high up there if I recall, 16 or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know BP is 8, Halo I think is 4. RDR is pretty high up there if I recall, 16 or so. Not sure if you're talking about full lobbies, or per team. So, I'll include both. I can give it a looksie. Red Dead Redemption: 16 players Battlefield 3: 2 players Black Ops 1 & 2: 4 players (Zombies) Modern Warfare 2, & 3: (Spec Ops) Burnout: Paradise: 8 players Borderlands 1 & 2: 4 players Edited March 12, 2013 by Yunder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Creech Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Remember this is co-op gaming...Not sure that a COD deathmatch lobby is what I would consider co-op. I know there are some co-op modes in COD, but I don't remember them supporting 18 players. Burnout Paradise is definitely 8, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barad Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Tournaments, Ambassador sessions, Co-ops sessions..man these just keep on coming. More excuses to play..good thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmona Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 good idea....I'll jump into any sessions of games I own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grifter Reborn Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 The ambassador ones are going to be a bit more structured I think, and are also restricted to members of the ambassador program. This is going to be a bit more casual. Just a FYI, but we've been using ambassador sessions (so far) to recruit more people to the site and into the program as well. So not strictly for ambassadors. In any case, more gaming with site members is better IMO. I look forward to some opportunities to play with people from our community. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corrupt. Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Was wondering when this would come to fruition. Look forward to some sessions, especially if I can get a few pesky achievements out the way as we play for good measure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xKRAIZEEMANx Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 This is an awesome idea. I am very interested in this, as I do not have any friends that play online anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
