Command & Conquer Classics
http://www.commandandconquer.com/classic (http://www.commandandconquer.com/classic)
-
sweet, +rep on that one
-
rise and fall civilizations at war is AWESOME!!!! Its like... GODLIKE (i got it) Rise and fall is so awesome you don't need to restrain yourself make an army go out pwn and retreat to regain your army within minutes... (i played earlier today and i finally found out that some units don't take population caps so guess what i did? I made such a huge army that it covered half my base and that is one huge base! Then my enemies just brought archers and cattas and put them in front of my gate as i only used melee soldiers they were all killed before they got out... Sometimes tight places are not good, however that depends on what kinda tight place it is :ball: :knight: :ball: Anyways you guys gotta try it, its beyond comparison it is like warcraft 3 on crack AND knocked up :ninja:
-
I'm glad that you find it interesting... You may also like this one :
0 A.D. (pre-alpha version) (http://www.moddb.com/games/0-ad/news/0-ad-debuts-pre-alpha-version) It's a historically-based war/economy game that allows players to relive or rewrite the history of six ancient Western civilizations, from Iberia to Persia, each depicted at their peak of economic growth and military prowess.
I haven't tried it yet, but it looks great...
-
Anyone played 0AD yet? I want to know whether the current release is worth a download... Known about it for a while thanks to AoMH, but not actually played it.
Also Minecraft (http://www.minecraft.net/).
-
No I haven't played it yet and it's still in alpha version, so I recommend you to wait for beta...
Little Fighter 2 (http://www.lf2.net/) - 2d side scrolling fighting game... It even supports multiple players on one computer... I've played it myself a few years ago and I loved it...
Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory (http://liberatedgames.com/game.php?game_id=33) - multiplayer fps ... I've tried this one too and I liked it... Zephron played it too...
The battle of Endor & The battle of Yavin (http://www.bruneras.com/) - 3d space shooter simulations based on Star Wars
The Battle for Wesnoth (http://www.wesnoth.org/) - turn-based tactical strategy game with a high fantasy theme, featuring both single-player, and online/hotseat multiplayer combat
FreeCol (http://www.freecol.org/) - a turn-based strategy game based on the old game Colonization, and similar to Civilization
EDIT : Minecraft seems to be a commercial game...
-
I always think of it as free since I play the multplayer sandbox mode mostly, which is free to play atm afaik.
-
Stronghold Kingdoms (http://www.strongholdkingdoms.com/) is in open beta and it's one hell of game ...
If you've liked Stronghold, you're going to love this ... It's basically an MMO real time strategy game...
-
anyone else noticed that team fortress 2 became free to play (freemium) today?
-
Pretty much :D . Although I did feel cheated to think I got it 6 months ago (even if it was a quarter of it's original price, but hey, who would have gotten TF2 knowing that it was bound to come out F2P?)
I hope a few of my buddies start playing... for me it has gotten kinda boring to be the only one that can laugh about the funny things that can happen, as only I understand how the game works, usually my friends stared at me for a while when I tried to explain them my funny happenings in TF2 (I don't even try anymore)
-
well ive risked leaving my laptop on for 24 gours continuously to download it on my rubbish internet speed. AND ITS STILL NOT FINISHED!!!
-
oh and debux - when this thing is finished downloading we should form an exilian team.
-
Talking of teams, should we do an Exilian Games again at some point? Might be fun to do sometime soon when people aren't too busy over summer...
-
definitely - start a poll to select what games we'll actually be playing. How many should we include?
-
If you think it will turn out better than last time...
-
There's always hope :P I think we should all use some kind of IM system, and I hate having to log on to MSN. Besides, I only have 3 fellow Exilianers on my list
IIRC, most people play between RTW, Warhammer and M&B. Feel free to expand the list
-
i think youre right there debux, but could we include an fps as well? i dont know which one - possibly tf2, a.v.a or combat arms (theyre all freemium)
-
I've made a Q&S thread for further discussion.
-
Age of Conan is now free to play... There are still some restrictions, but it's cool anyway.
I don't intend to miss this....
http://www.ageofconan.com/

Survival Crisis Z (http://www.ska-studios.com/2007/09/07/just-a-friendly-reminder/)
Old game, but a classic. Action/rpg. Run around killing zombies, scavaging for supplies, and getting better weapons. But wait, there's more! There are three factions of survivors in the game - Rebels, Cops (or Swat or whatever), and Neutral. You can team up with any of them. Each faction has several bases around the city where you can get missions or buy/sell supplies. You can also attempt to take over leadership of a friendly base by fighting off a huge swarm of zombies or you can attempt a hostile takeover of an enemy base by fighting off a swarm of the enemy faction (much harder since they have guns). All three of the factions will fight the zombies and can turn into zombies if they take too much damage. Occasionally npcs will join you when you enter a friendly base (you don't get a choice, they just join you). They will follow you around and fight zombies, but you have to keep them healed or they will turn into zombies. If you can handle the outdated graphics, this game is a lot of fun.

http://na.leagueoflegends.com/ - Dont know if people like games that are like D.o.t.a. This here is a nicely done rip off of it :)
http://hellgate.t3fun.com/Data/Download.aspx - This is a dead online game not unlike Agent free agenda( although Afg isnt dead :P) , for example. Theres a free torrent download on the site so if iit interests you try it :P
-
http://na.leagueoflegends.com/ - Dont know if people like games that are like D.o.t.a. This here is a nicely done rip off of it :)
Actually, it's not a rip off. It was made by the same team which split into two parts.
And it's cool, but unfortunately I don't have enough free time to play it.
-
Oh... i thought it was a rip off :P guess i should of researched that before saying so :)

http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/12/31/the-top-10-free-pc-games-of-2011/
'Nuff said. I also found an online, free version of Quake 3 there too. Too bad it does run at all on this PC :/
-
I find it rather sad that I made this account just to add to your list of free games but w.e.
Here goes;
Heroes of Newerth (HoN)
http://www.heroesofnewerth.com/
Basically DotA with better graphics. It used to P2P but is now free.

And I really can't be bothered adding more at the moment. :)
I would put all the game names before the links but I forgot some. (I don't play 'em I just know of their existence)
-
http://www.worldofbattles.com/
I found this game to be fun.
-
Wow. Look at those detailed units! :D
Reminds me of Warhammer, too.
I'll try it at some point.
But now we needz MOAR free timez! :(
-
Robot unicorn attack! ;D
(http://files.sharenator.com/unicorn_sm_ROBOT_UNICORN_ATTACK_PICS-s600x338-70927.jpg)
It's so fuc*ing addictive.
http://jayisgames.com/games/robot-unicorn-attack/
My personal record is around 17500 in one run. The game's pretty hard.
-
Haha, i win. I got 22000 in one run :)
-
TF2 was already mentioned right? :P
In any case, is anyone interested in meeting up one day to play any of the fun mods as exilian? I really like the prop hunt game.
-
Almost forgot. I've tried World of Battles and it seems like an OK-ish game for now...
But I've only played it for like 10 minutes (too busy to play atm). I need to play it more to form a real opinion.
BTW. Welcome back debux ;D
-
Thanks mate :D Nice to see familiar faces again.
I found AirMech (https://www.carbongames.com/) a while ago... it's almost like SupCom, but free and with a few more RPG elements (it's a lot more focused on your character). I personally found it too attention-demanding, at least for me: I couldn't concentrate on giving orders to my units (on my opinion, the system is very clunky, I couldn't figure out how to give them to more than one unit) and controlling my mech at the same time, and it was too fast for me to attempt to do both a the same time (I rage quitted after one minute of real gameplay). However, other people might like it, the idea is quite original, and it looks and feels good. And besides, who doesn't like freeware? :P
-
King Arthurs Gold?
[http://kag2d.com/en/]
Nice little 2d PvP game, Exlian server, anyone?
Next Exilian games we could play on it. :)
-
Realm of the Mad God is cool
-
https://warframe.com/
This game is fun, it's actually got me a bit addicted :P . I do like my games :)
-
Thanks for the heads up! Downloading now :)
-
OMG it's amazing. We need to get more exilianites on here!
I urge everyone to give it a go :D
EDIT: Name on there is CausticFibre
-
Which one? War Frame?
-
aww man perfect worlds, played that awhile back took 2 whole days to download and update and is actually pretty good, I only found the winged eleves worth playing as it took way too long to travel otherwise
also War Thunder is a great free WWII flight sim, they hope to add tanks and boats soonish
-
Yep Warframe. Please more people play this, you need a party of 4 to play properly :D
EDIT: Plus I'm stuck on a boss and need a hand :(
EDIT2: Khan, add me! :D
-
Does it have single player? I have satellite broadband so I can't play multiplayer.
-
Nooooo! Satellite broadband :(
Yes you can play solo, I'm doing that at the moment, but I'm getting my ass handed to me by the first boss. Minions I can kill by the hundred though.
-
I tried WarFrame at a friends request. It's fun, but I don't like the setting really, and I sucked at it (I can't really manage how easy it is to go from melee to shooter mechanics :P ). Playing alone doesn't seem to be as fun as it should be with friends.
I'd like to contribute of a demo of a game that is still in development (apparently), Superhot (http://www.pcgamer.com/2013/09/10/super-hot/). Basically, your movement has almost absolute command over time. It shouldn't take you more than 10 minutes to complete the game, so I really suggest you to try it out. Besides, I found the small hints of dark humour to be great (if you don't agree with me after trying, you've been warned of the possible nature of my jokes)
EDIT: yay, I still remember some basic BBCodes!

Any one tried 8BitMMMO? It seems like the kind of thing people of this forum might be interested in. It is a free game and.... yeah basically is an 8bit MMO.
-
Link? :)
-
As for free MMO's, I have Star Wars: The Old Republic downloading as I type. If enough people here get it we could have an Exilian Clan? :D http://www.swtor.com/] (http://www.swtor.com/)
-
Steam link: http://store.steampowered.com/app/250420/ (http://store.steampowered.com/app/250420/)
The website: http://8bitmmo.net/ (http://8bitmmo.net/)
Steam and the website both have short video clips of the game so you can see what it is about.
Edit: As far as I can tell the whole game was developed by this one guy called Robby.

Soulbound
http://www.moddb.com/games/soulbound
Description of Soulbound
Soulbound is an action-adventure game in which you play as the Beastmaster, an intrepid explorer who dares to venture where others do not. While you have seen much of the world, you are not the greatest of warriors. By taming monsters you encounter on your travels, you can use their power and skills against their former allies.
The game takes place in the abandoned city of Caladan, the greatest of ancient states. What was once a city filled with light has now turned into a dark abyss. Thread carefully, for your next step could be your last!
Key Features
Put a team of the right monsters around you to survive
There are different kinds of crawling through the dark corridors of Caladan. Each kind has its own strengths and weaknesses. You have to choose your team carefully if you want to survive.
Use the skills of your monsters to hide your own weakness
In comparison to your enemies you are very weak. Everything depends on how you control your monster and how you use their personal qualities in thrilling fight scenes. Each kind of monster has its own special attack which you can use in times of need to prevent the enemies from taking your life.
-
Only just noticed those posts Rob, do you still play Warframe? :P
-
Well this is awkward, did not see this post sorry matey :(
Only a year late in replying but hey: I've actually taken a break from it but I'm willing to go back to it if you want to ad me on steam: CaptainBaseballBatBoy (It's an obscurity from Max Payne).
Now, what did I come here to actually post? EA giving away free games with Origin service? Nope. Though that is a thing it's certainly not new. Origin access is but it's a paid service.
Can't remember....But hey here's something...
You can actually loan people your steam library, don't know how long you've been able to do this but I've been giving access to my considerable library to friends and family, though with 5 accounts able to access my library at any one time I have to keep switching who's on the rota ;)
Good guy Gabe.
armadillo that was it: Starcraft 2 arcade and multiplayer is free. My Battlenet is Clockwork (#2338).
-
I made a little free browser game for the kicks. Give it a Go! (http://gamejolt.com/games/craven/143652)
(https://p5b4y2t6.ssl.hwcdn.net/screenshot-thumbnail/1100x2000/266187.jpg)
-
Fixed your broken link - you don't need to put the url in quote marks :)
First try, got to 14 ravens - wasn't sure what the best way was to survive overnight, I survived 14 seconds after that!
-
Ah thanks! My record is 42 ravens and about 64 seconds into the night :p
-
I myself am now sitting pretty on 42 ravens and 84 seconds :)

New art and sneak-peek behind the scenes of my next free browser game about minions & gathering stuff :)
(http://i.imgur.com/yyXKAd1.jpg)
-
Shrunk the image for you :)
Ooh, looks nice! What's going on I have no idea for the picture, but I'm excited to find out :P
-
I don't know whether I'll be interested in the game, but your function names definitely appeal to my sense of humour: QuackAtTime, SquawkNextDelay, and the wonderful IsDespawned :) Much more fun than the stuff I have to deal with at work!
-
We should have a best function names competition, I think I may have some entries somewhere...
-
Haha yea, sometimes when I am in a bad mood I make amusing or passive aggressive function/variable names to destress. I think once I named a function that returns the next free element in a particle system object pool as: "CanIhasAsplosionz?"
-
Excellent :D
How's the game going? :)
-
Haven't had time to work on it, was too busy bliatering my feet exploring Stockholm and Helsinki, as well as visiting a friend from another online forum in Vaasa :D
-
Fair nuffs :)
-
ACK My minions are hungry!
(http://unboundcreations.com/images/experiments/gather-06-hungry-minions.jpg)
-
You appear to be a Nazgul in an idyllic wasteland commanding tiny zombies to harvest pumpkins?
-
Haha interesting interpretation ;) The filename (free from OpenGameArt.org) for the main char is "Grue" so I guess that's what it actually is. And those are supposed to be fruits and not pumpkins but now I can't unsee pumpkins, damn you ;p What made you think it is a "wasteland" tho?
(But I like the dichotomy of "idyllic wasteland" hmm!)
-
Pumpkins are more or less fruit anyway! As to why it's a wasteland, partly the fact that it seems to be uncultivated/uninhabited and have mini zombie things roaming around it, I guess? Also possibly the fact that I've been sleep deprived all week and am not selecting words accurately any more. :P
-
Oh, I wasn't criticizing your word choice at all, just genuinely curious. The whole reason I am making these experimental titles is to learn how players perceive my ideas and how to communicate my goals better :) So it's good to hear your impressions and rationale behind it!
-
I've been playing Anno online recently.
It's very addictive and the economy runs while you're offline.
And there are tons of different features.
I can recommend it.
And here's a review:
-
Hey folks, wanted to share my upcoming Free HTML5 experimental game project: GATHER you can now Follow On GameJolt! (http://gamejolt.com/games/gather/166416?cm=fexilian)
(http://unboundcreations.com/images/experiments/gather-06-hungry-minions.jpg)
Discover the world, lead your minions, learn their language, and harvest sacrifice for the Gods. Free isometric adventure and exploration game set in an esoteric land.
You control a Wraith sent to the idyllic land and must learn the rules of the world on your own. Powerless to affect the material realm, you must find arcane words to command and grow your minions, gather various items and discovering their use. The Krewski god demands sacrifice - but of what kind? And how will you appease them?
Release Date: End of July
-
Fantastic, this sounds great :)
-
I'm beginning Beta testing this little thingy, so if anyone is interested shoot me a PM :) It's a small thing that takes like 15-20mins, so not a big investment. Lemme know!
-
I've DLed a couple more games onto my tablet recently - I tend to play free android games in a way that I wouldn't often go for free stuff on PC (though most games I play on PC are also free, just I'm playing things in beta stages).
(Also this should prob be unpinned as the OP list thing is like seven years out of date?).
-
(Also this should prob be unpinned as the OP list thing is like seven years out of date?).
I agree.
This thread had more meaning back when free games weren't so common. ;)
-
Yes, indeed! It's such a different world now to where we were in '08.
I'm still modding RTW though :P
-
The absolutely phenomenal sci-fi epic Starcraft 2: Wings of Liberty is free to play.
As RTS go, this one is legendary in it's vast ESports presence and it's engaging, slightly campy, low budget high production sci-fi story about a Texan beefcake looking to cure his love of an alien parasite. Without a doubt this tragic love story is one of the all time most iconic stories in gaming history and with good reason, fantastic performances from all actors and facial modelling and animation make even minority of gamers who loathe the gameplay slog through it to watch the epic unfold.
I can't recommend this enough, it's completely free so there's nothing to lose. If for some reason you hate love, stories, acting and camp tragedy then at the very least you now own the best RTS of the last 10 years.
-
Just started playing SC2 now its free. Gotta say, really good solid game and cant complain to completely free multiplayer acesss! Played first online game few days ago, and must say though it has a learning curb its hella fun.
-
I rarely play it online, only after I watch the pros, really :P
If you fancy a SC2 online game but with a lot of the macro taken out Totalbiscuit hired a dev team to make a multiplayer mod called Axiom which is all the blasting but with automated resource gathering and C&C style queued production.
